A. were in attendance. During the meeting Past County Master Ross Errington presented the Members of the Huron County Federation of Agriculture Tuesday night showed concern over the recent decision of Judge R. S. Hetherington to lower the assessment on a home because it was near a pig barn. The judge's decision was made March 24 when he heard the appeal of Mr. and Mrs. Edison MacLean of the Kippen area that their 1969 assessment should be lowered because of air pollution from a nearby barn of Grant McGregor. The Federation, in its meeting in the Departnient of Agriculture Board Room, Clinton, endorsed a recommendation put forward by Elmer Hunter of Goderich Township which called on Huron County and its legal council to study the situation and strongly recommended the county and the provincial assessment branch appeal the DIPPROSS EFIRINGTON ,t, iit,msacretary, ofetherigannen iLodge,, Allan Webster, with the North Huron Secretary's Award for the' best report. There were four ministers present who spoke, Rev. Parott, of Fordwich; Rev. Jennings and Rev. Jenkins of Gorrie; and Rev. Fry of Auburn. Other speakers, besides the Grand Master included Shelton Henry, Listowel; Charles Stewart, Blyth; Robt, Hibberd, Belgrave; Henry Pattison, Belgrave; Mrs. Underwood, Gorrie; Miss Foster, Fordwich, and W. A. Stinson, Fordwich. Ross Errington, Tom Culbert, Emerson Mitchell and Athol Bruce were appointed to make arrangements for the annual church service. The next meeting will be held in Blyth on May 27. Deputy-Reeve Alex McGregor, referring to a meeting of township and county officials with county-solicitor James Donnelly of Goderich last week, said the solicitor recommended against going ahead with an appeal. He said Mr. Donnelly would have liked to present a case at the March 24 assessment appeal hearing but nobody pushed it. Laverne Godkin of Walton said the judge's decision could create a chain reaction, adding that there will not be a farm in the county that will be. safe. Charles Thomas, reeve of Grey Township, said the fact that Mr. Donnelly recommended against an appeal was not a reflection on his integrity. If the county instructed Mr. Donnelly to appeal, farmers would have excellent representation. The meeting also learned that the Ontario Hog Producers Marketing Board earlier in the day had offered its full support ;to the federation if it decided to push for an appeal. One farmer said he was told thy an assessment official that if the assessment appeal stands as • oeis, asgsii5is Vii1 have "to' devery farm when they are ,assessing the property and note a nuisance factor on the. assessment form if a smell exists. Deputy-Reeve McGregor said "at this Point: "That means the McGregors can put down the McLeans on their notice as a nuisance factor the next time they are assessed." In other business, the meeting learned the Ontario Milk' Marketing Board is pursuing the matter of having the sales tax on milk cans removed. Until recently, milk cans were often supplied by the milk companies. Now each farmer must own his own cans. The purchase of these cans will involve more than $100,000 over the whole Mr. apd Mrs. Lorne Peter, onnie, IVIerian and Sandra or rvie visited last Sunday with rs. Sidney Lansing.

Speakers at the meeting warned that this dcision had set a dangerous precedent and that in future no farm would be safe. Elmer Hunter pointed out that the McGregor farm conformed to all recommendations by the Department of Agriculture, Ontario Water Resources Commission, Huron County Health Unit and the Ontario Air Management Branch. He said the storage lagoon where the smell originated was 1,300 feet from the McLean home. "The McLeans have won their assessment appeal because of an odor and this disturbs me greatly," said Mr. Hunter. "This is one of the best-managed hog operations in Huron County and it disturbs me that a farmer can be accused of air pollution to a point where a neighbor can get his assessment reduced."
