and learned that no hospital premiums are
used for actual grari‘t purposes. The grant
program is a separate program funded
directly by the province, the committee was
advised.
Because of this, the county will reactivate
the Hospital Reserve Fund in the 1972
budget. Furthermore, the amount of money
to set aside each year will be determined by
the 1972 council at the time of preparing
the budget.

A report from county development
officer Spence Cummings regarding the sale
of CFB Clinton was heard by county
council.
"It must be realized that this is a major
project and it will take a couple of years to
become established," said Cummings.
Tuckersmith Reeve Elgin Thompson
called the sale a "terrific shot in the arm for
Tuckersmith" and Warden Jack Alexander
said that Cummings' efforts over the past
year are just "starting to bud out".
Cummings indicated a renewed interest in
the tourist industry in Huron as well as
attracting industry to individual
municipalities.
The Land Division Committee reported it
had approved 29 severances; deferred 49;
rejected 5; and closed out 2 with 16
pending.

Jail walls may
tumbling down
Maybe the walls around the exercise
yards of the Huron County Jail won't be
coming down after all.
Goderich Reeve Paul Carroll asked
county council to reconsider the plan since
the historical building may indeed have value
as a tourist attraction in Huron. He
suggested that some other alternative
solution to the parking problem at the
administrative building and at the Children's
Aid Society should be sought, possibly in
co-operation with the Town of Goderich.
Chairman of the property committee,
John Flannery, Reeve of Seaforth, said some
alternate solution may have to be found. He
indicates the project of taking down the
walls of two exercise yards (there are five) at
the jail may pose problems for which council
had not originally bargained.
Flannery said the construction is such
that to remove a portion of the wall may
entail a crumbling of other walls. Another
problem has been the decision on how to
remove a portion of the wall without leaving
the remaining structure a kind of
unpicturesque view "right there on Highway
21".
The matter is to be restudied by the
committee. In the meantime, plans are afoot
to have representatives from the Department
of Public Works and Correctional Services
present at the next property committee
meeting since if work is undertaken, it can
be done under the Winter Works Program.
Planning 'Director Gary Davidson
reported that Huron's Official plan has gone
to the Minister of Municipal Affairs for
endorsation. The Planning Board received
100 per cent support from the local councils
for the document.
Davidson said that Huron County is the
first county in the Province of Ontario to
submit an official plan.
"This is a significant milestone," said
Davidson.
The executive committee of council

Agricultural
shows 'Huron
An Ontario agricultural
inventory of Huron County
based on the 1970 census shows
that Huron in relation to other
counties in Ontario has the most
improved farm land-620,472
acres.
Improved land is land
which is prepared for growing
crops.
The county is also largest in
value or lifestock---76,000 dairy
cattle valued at $16.54 million;
120,350 beef cattle $24.53
million, and 151,000 value of
$2.65 million.
It has the largest value in
poultry with 2.6 million hens,
chickens and turkeys at a value
of $2.65 million.
Huron placed first in white
beans-35,000 acres valued at
$1.94 .... million; first in
barley-36,000 acres valued at
$2.19 million; first in sileage
corn-39,000 acres valued at
county-wide bovine vaccination program
against rabies.
The cost of the program, stated Dr. Mills,
would not be prohibitive. It would be
carried out on a strictly volunteer basis.
Small animals, particularly pets, are
vaccinated now in the county free of charge
and more and more people are taking
advantage of this service, said Dr. Mills.
There was a 17 per cent overall increase in
attendance at the clinics this year with 6,311
animals being vaccinated against 5,378 last
year.
"Rabies is treatable," said Dr. Mills. "It is
preventable."
Reeve Roy Pattison, East Wawanosh, said
that as a farmer who has lost money through
rabies, the government compensation
offered for the loss does not nearly cover.
He felt a, county-wide vaccination program
should be studied.
During the questioning, it was learned
that the rabies vaccine must be
administrated by a veterinarian and cannot
be given by the farmer as are some other
types of vaccine.

BY SHIRLEY J. KELLER
Members of Huron County Council were
told at last Friday's regular November
meeting that it may be prudent in the new
year to give some thought to inaugurating a
county-wide bovine vaccination program for
radies.
The suggestion followed a presentation by
Acting Medical Office of Health Dr. Frank
Mills who said 1971's statistics showed four
times as many incidents of rabies in cattle as
in 1970 with 36 cases reported this year and
only nine reported cases last year.
Dr. Mills said that rabies usually follows a
10 year cycle and travels in a circular
fashion. He estimated that Huron County's
turn was upcoming shortly with the peak
expected in about two years.
A' loss of about ,$8,000 cluring',19714was
reported by farmers in Huron who lost
cattle. Mills indicated that this figure could
certainly climb as the incidents of rabies
increased and he suggested it is entirely
possible the members of county council
should be looking into the feasibility of a
inventory
tops
$3.55 million; and second in
total cattle and marketings.
It placed third in forage
crops-114 acres valued at $6.98
million, and fourth in total hog
production.
There were 13,000 acres of
winter wheat grown valued at
$931,000; 110,000 acres of oats
and mixed grains valued at $5.7
million, and 56,000 acres of
shelled corn valued at $6.a6
million.
The county, with a
population of 54,446 in an area
of 806,681 acres, sold more than
$53 million worth of agricultural
products annually. Values are
based on averaged prices and
actual yields.
The inventory reports there
are 3,664 commercial farms with
an acerage 678,300 which have
gross income per year of $2,500.
There were 4,565 census
farms (752,043 acres) which
took in a gross income of $50
per year.
