An explanation of the bounty oncoyotes was sought by the councillor from Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh at the Feb. 6 meeting of Huron County council. Responding to a question from Ben Van Diepenbeek, CAO Larry Adams said a complaint first goes to the animal enforcement officer, who then contacts the Ministry of Natural Resources. “They investigate to determine if the destruction of livestock, etc. is the work of a coyote,” said Adams. An area is then designated and an individual is brought in to “harvest the offenders”. There is no limit on the number, said Adams, which is verified by the lower-tier administrators. The county then pays compensation of $50 per animal. Inspiring It’s never too late to celebrate love and Brussels Mennonite Fellowship hosted a Valentine dinner at the hall on Sunday evening. The meal was followed with Earl Myers doing his inspirational art. Proceeds for the event went to the missions fund.

Milk and milk products, such as cheese and yogurt provide the most readily available source of calcium and other bone building nutrients. Other sources include calcium-fortified beverages (soy, rice and orange juice) tofu made with calcium sulfate, salmon and sardines with bones, sesame seeds and almonds. Bok choy, kale and broccoli also provide calcium but in smaller amounts. Vitamin D is found in fluid milk, eggs, fish and fish liver oils, margarine as well as in soy and rice beverages fortified with vitamin D. Sunlight on the skin can be a major source of vitamin D but is limited in Canada from October to March and by use of sunscreens. To prevent osteoporosis women are encouraged to get enough calcium, vitamin D and protein, limit caffeine, have sodium in moderation, and keep active particularly with weight-bearing activity.
