Former Resident
Dies In London
A former Exeter resident, Mrs,
James Dearing died Friday at
the Huddleston nursing 'home,
London, in her seventy-sixth
year.
Born in Orillia, She came to
London as a child, but moved to
Exeter at the time of her ,mar
riage forty-nine years ago last
April ’3, and lived there for
twenty years, after which ,she
moved with her husband to Dor
chester. She had spent her last
few years in London^
Surviving with her husband
are one son, Philip Dearing, Lon
don; four daughters, Mrs. Milton
(Alma) 'Marsh, .of Komoka, Mrs.
Harold (Jeannie) .Down, London,
Mrs. Howard (Ethel) Gottlieb,
of Detroit, and Mrs. Elgin (Elv$)
Fuller, Watford; and five grand
children.
One brother, Fred Hedges, of
Dayton, Ohio, and four sisters,
Mrs. Jack Rea, of Victoria, B.C.,
Mrs. C*. Metcalfe, of Petrolia,
Mrs. T. Shuter, London, and Mrs.
A. Durley, of Sarnia, also sur
vive.
The body rested at the Need-
Memorial Chapel, where ser-
was held Monday at 3:30
Interment was in Wood-
Cemetery.
During ’the last week in May
the farmers of Huron County
will be receiving the annual Juno
questionnaire concerning live
stock, farm labour and acreages
on their own farms. The ques-
tionngire is being sent out by the
Agricultural Division of the Do
minion Bureau of Statistics in
•co-operation with the Provincial
Department of Agriculture, The
answers given by the farmers to
the questions asked on the form
will provide the basis for estab
lishing the acreage sown to field
crops in 1950 and the numbers
Of live stock and poultry in Can
ada at June 1, 19 5 O',
The success of the survey and
the accuracy of the agricutural
statistics published by the bureau
and the several Provincial De
partments of Agriculture depend
on the co-operation of farmers
in filling out and returning the
questionnaires. A widespread re
sponse from all types of farmers
throughout each province is
needed in order to obtain a fully
representative sample.
The statistics obtained are
used extensively throughout the
year. The Dominion Bureau of
Statistics is the official source of
statistical Information in Canada
and its figures are used by Gov
ernments, farm organizations,
and Industry to plan future
operations. International organ
izations such as the World Food
and Agriculture Organization .de
pend on the Bureau to supply up
to .date figures on Canada's agri
cultural industry. The farmer
through his response to the
■questionnaire sent out has a real
opportunity to help form a true
picture of agricultural conditions,
and, it is in his own interest to
do so.
The survey -has no connection
with taxation. The tamer’s in
dividual form is seen only by
workers in the Dominion and
Provincial agricultural statistical
'offices. All individual forms are
kept strictly confidential.
The month of June is at hand
and also the ‘Cream Producers’
campaign to raise money for ad
vertising will get under way.
It is to be hoped that everyone
will contribute their share as it
is being done to further the sale
of dairy products which should,
directly concern .you, the pro
ducer, The deduction is one cent
per pound of butterfat produced
in the month of June. If you
send in a can of cream that
weighs 80 pounds and tests 35
you will be contributing about
for 2/8 cents. If everyone contri-
much advertising could you do
for 28 cents. If everone contri
butes their 2>8 cents worth it
amounts to a sizeable sum that
wil^ permit those in charge of
tlie“ campaign to make it pay off.
