The Agricultural committee re- i
commended, that the campaign-to
eradicate -the common barberry
and the leafy sputge be continued
and that the County weed inspec
tor, be allowed to spend $500 on
chemical weed; killers necessary
for their eradication; In connec
tion with the Bruce County calf-
hood vaccination campaign, which
was most successful in -1951 and
1952, legislation has been enacted
making it necessary for the town
ship council to^act upon receipt
of a petition of two-thirds -bf.the
cattle, owners; Since beef farm
ers buy and. raise a lot of heifer
calves for market, the $1.00 per
head, necessary .makes the cost
of vaccination of all these1 heifers
prohibitive. The veterinarians
have agreed to. vaccinate for 75
cents if they can collect 'from the
same Source. The plan is to have'
county council pay 25 cents, leav
