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.

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.

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.

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.
