Usborne Ups
Tax Rate
By One Mill
Usborne Council, raised the
township’s 1954 tax rate by one
mill at its July meeting.
The general rate was set at
seven mills to raise $18,707.85
over and above the estimated
total of provincial grants of $26,-
700.
James Doig, reeve of Tucker
smith, interviewed council in
connection with the complaint
received from Usborne regarding
the state of disrepair of the
Geiger drain. After considerable
discussion regarding repairs to
the drain Usborne Council agreed
that they would prefer to have
an engineer’s report on the work
to be done and so advised Mr.
Doig.
A Woodham delegation of R.
Mills, R. Rundle and L. Smith
requested construction of a side
walk in Woodham between Jots
eight and nine. Council agreed
to consider the matter and look
the situation over.
W. H. Hodgson. Exeter, inter
viewed the Council in regard to
the renewal of the compensation,
insurance policy with the Gene-.
ral Accident Insurance Co. The
policy was approved for renewal
at a premium of $15 8.94 applied
to the roads and bridges account
and $32.28 to general account.
Dykeman drain assessment will
be sread over a two-year period.
C. Pullman applied to the coun
cil to have the drain tax of the
Dykeman drain spread over more
than one year on account of the
high cost of the drain. Council
agreed to amend the Dykeman
Drain By-law to provide for the
collection of the assessments —-
50 percent in 1954 and 50 per
cent in 1955, interest on the un
paid balance to be charged at the
rate of five percent.
In ‘ ‘
costs
ed in
ority
Authority advised that no grants
would be paid toward construc
tion of ponds constructed before
entry of township into Authority,
and also that there would be no
levy for former years on the
township. Council agreed to make
the regular grant of 50 percent
to the ratepayers who have con
structed ponds in the Thames
Valley area to a total amount of
$93.62 and the Clerk was in
structed to levy this amount on
the Thames Valley area in 19 54.
The council expressed dissat
isfaction with installation of the
branch outlet pipe of the Kers-
lake drain. K. Morkin was ad
vised of the complaint.
C. P. Corbett, engineer, sub
mitted certificate of completion
on the Tuckey-May drain and
council agreed to pay contractor.
Correspondence from Huron
County revealed that the Us
borne equalized assessment was
set at $2,672,550 and that at the
county rate of 10 mills the town
ship share would be $26,714.
Another county report ’Stated
that five acres of trees had been
planted on the farm of Jack Del-
bridge in Usborne at a cost of
$96.12, Of which the township’s
share is $48.06.

recommended. Put it on during the early bud stage. After the
blossoms come out. it is too late.
Clipping at the same stage gives
quite adequate control. Clipping
is preferred by many farmers,
since tbe livestock does not have
to be removed to another field.
One authority has come up
with a unique idea of thistle con
trol in hoe crops. They recom
mend not to cultivate the soil
during the spring. Thistles will
come up faster and thicker in
the spring. When they are four
to six inches high spray with a
pound of 2,4-L per acre. Wait
one week — then plow.
But don’t be fooled. These
treatments, or tillage only control
Canada thistles. After harvest
cultivation with some of the dry
weather like we've experienced
the past few weeks will be also
beneficial in their control along
with that time-tested idea of
crop rotation.
To eliminate Canada Thistle
completely from any field it
would seem necessary to sterilize
the soil.
DID YOU KNOW*?
Army worms are active this
year in some areas close to home.
The recommended bait is: 22 lbs.
of bran, one lb. Paris Green or
white arsenic or DDT powder.
One or two quarts of molasses
make bait more palatable but are
not essential. Mix thoroughly and
apply over infected area in eve
ning. Remember—bait is poison
ous to livestock, and humans.
