LIMITED Chevrolet and Oldsmobile Cars and Chevrolet Trucks PHONE 100 EXETER Huron County Health Unit board, meeting at Clinton Thurs­ day afternoon, was informed by its secretary-treasurer, A. H. Erskine, Goderich, that the Unit lias been operating within its 1952 budget, of $56,000, of which 50 per cent is recoverable from the .province. The board approved next year's burjget at the same amount as that of this past year. The board passed a resolution which will be forwarded to the provincial Department of Health requesting that regulations re­ garding abbatoirs be created under the Public rfealth Act A progress report from June up until the present date, as prepared by Dr. Thomas Melady, public health veterinarian, in­ cluded a description of the speci­ fic health probleni in the county and a description to indicate plan to be followed, methods to be used, and provision for the evaluation of results. Dr. Melady’s report is as fol­ lows: The supervision of fluid milk and meat supplies in Huron County constitutes the work of the project. (The county’s popu­ lation is 49,000 and its area is 1,213 square miles). There are approximately 75 dairy farms and 13 dairies supplying milk to the Huron County consumers. There are some 30 slaughter houses, which are used by th<- butchers to supply a— sizeable proportion of the meat used in the county. Other phases of the health problem includes the in­ edible slaughter houses, pigger­ ies, locker plants and butcher shops, In a step to improve the quality of raw milk, the plan will take the form of an educa­ tion program with the producers and dairy operators. An incen­ tive to- refractory students will be supplied through the enforce­ ment of existing legislation and where necessary, obtaining fur­ ther control through municipal by-laws. N’T WAIT 'TIL ... CHRISTMAS I ) JrlFTSNow Lindenfields Limited Could .Improve Supply Th milk supply from the Hu­ ron County milk shed can be greatly improved by impressing the daivy farmers with the im­ portance of dairy farm milk coolers in the production of safe, quality milk. Close liason with the armed services through the command hygiene officer has been instituted, because of the need for local supervision over the milk supply to the R.C.A.li. stations at Clinton and Cen­ tralia. Additional services to the dairy farmers is available in the form of assistance in the control of mastitis and brucillosis in the dairy herd; with further expan­ sion of this work planned. The evaluation of the improvement in the raw milk supply will be measured by determining the change in percentage of satis­ factory milk samples to* the public health laboratories The educational program with the butchers will be similar to the milk program in that it will be utilized with legislation being enforced as a last resort The measure of progress in the pro­ ject respecting meat supplies is not so obvious as that in the milk control program. This is due to an increase in numbers of new installations, improved establishments and animals in­ spected. The veterinarian stated in his report that satisfactory control can be instituted and exercised over the other phases of the health program, such as slaugh­ ter houses, piggeries, locke~ plants and butcher shops. An animal case-finding and educa­ tional Brucellosis program could be launched when time permits. A survey of the county should not be necessary to determine the extent of animal infection. Reports Oil Parley Supervisor of nursing for the unit, Miss Norah Cunningham, in reporting on the American Pub­ lic Health Convention she attend­ ed recently in Cleveland, stated that U. S, citizens, who often have more money than Canad­ ians for health surveys, are em­ ploying more psychologists, socialogists and health educa­ tors in the health education and approach to community health programs. She stated that they were attempting to do something that is ’’Very difficult to do, that is, to measure the amount of success of various types of ap­ proach to health education. Presiding at the meeting was board chairman W. A. Galbraith, Wingham, and present were members, Earl Campbell, R.R. 1, Exeter; Frank Sills, Seaforth; Murray Johnson, Wingham, F. S.

Phone 181 Exeter Report On Grand Bend By MRS. IRENE MEYERS Stronger Farm Union Needed Riddell Tells Usborne F Of A Farmers must use "interest, intelligence and industry” to build a strong organization which can compete with labor and in­ dustry in the Canadian economy, Keith Riddell, Ag.-Rep. for Middlesex County, told the Us­ borne Federation Friday night. "We’re getting to be a smaller group all the time,” Mr. Riddell said, "so we’ve got to work to­ gether to knit a pretty strong organization to hold our own.” The annual banquet and fede­ ration meeting was held at Thames Road United Church and close to 150 attended. Mr. Riddell stated that farm­ ers must be prepared to give something for a strong federa­ tion. He said some members were paying only one dollar a year while laborers paid three dollars a month to their unions. He suggested farmers were not taking as much interest in federation activities as they should. No Longer Haphazard Farming is no longer the hap­ hazard business it used to be, Mr. Riddell stated. The use of science and the study of soils, seeds, livestock breeding and mechanization eliminates much of the haphazard production of years ago. However, he stressed there was much work to be done to establish equitable agriculture returns and suggested that more of farm organizations’ work should be directed to this ob­ jective. The Middlesex representative noted there was opposition to the current movement to con­ trol farm production to keep prices up. Take World View Farmers must take the rest of the world into consideration and realize that there were many people hungry. “Sojne people think we should be i5roducing food for needy peoples in the faith that man’s ingenuity can provide for a proper return to the farmer,” Gordon Grieg, secretary of the Huron Federation, and Wilfred Shortreed, county vice-president, reported on national and pro­ vincial activities. Howard Pym, president of the South Huron Junior Farmers, expressed appreciation of the Federation's financial assistance towards the mail box improve­ ment project. He said enquiries about the project were being re­ ceived from as far away as Manitoba and Quebec. Kenneth Hern, secretary, pre­ sented the financial statement. Gerry Montgomery and John Butler, ag.-reps of Huron County, also spoke. President Howard Johns was in charge of the meeting. The ladies of Thames Road Churcn W.A. provided the supper. Music was provided by Allan Elson, Harry Hern and Howard Johns who sang solos accompan­ ied by Mrs. Allan Elson, Agnes Bray and Mrs. Phillip Johns. Rev. W. J. Moores welcomed the Federation members to the church. Huron County Crop Report By G. W. MONGOMERY With the long, open fall, farm- esr have practically all of their outside work completed and were in a good position to cope with the winter-like weather con­ ditions of this past week. All livestock are now stablea and appear to be in good con­ dition and the majority of farm­ ers should have sufficient feed supplies on hand for the inside stabling period despite the fact that they are wintering over a much larger number of cattle than usual.
