New Farming Company

Details of a farming operation
designed to mass-produce hogs
and poultry on land adjacent to
Exeter were released this week
by officials of Aleantuc Farms
Ltd., following receipt of ' the
company's charter form the On-
tario government.
First stage of the develop-
ment will be the erection of new-
tYpe buildings which will house
crops of 10,000 turkey broilers
and 400 hogs at a tine. Con-
struction of the pole -type poul-
try barn is under way.
The company has purchased
the 75 -acre farm of Warren

Highway 83, Existing building
on the farm will be used as a
sow farrowing barn in which 75
sows will eventually be housed,

"OUr plan is to farm buildings,
rather than. land," said Carfrey
A. Cann, a direttor, who reveal-
ed the details Wednesday. "We
feel this is the trend in the live.
stoek industry today."

Eighty -Second Year
Cut Hospital Costs
EXETER, .ONTARIO, MAY 29, 1950.
Urge Addition To
Two Sign
Agreements
Town solicitor W.G. Ceehrane
said Wednesday agreements in
connection with the construction
of homes in two new subdivisions
were signed by contractors this
week.
The agreements, relieving the
town of certain responsibilities
in .regards to roads, drainage
and other 'services, have been
accepted by Simmons brothers,
who are building north of the
river, and Arthur Whilsmith,
who has started a development
on Sanders street cast.
At a meeting last week,
council threatened to take action
to stop construction unless the
documents, verbally agreed to
earlier, were signed. Clerk C, V.
Pickard was instructed to hold
up the building permits until
the agreements were completed.
Following the meeting, how-
ever, it appeared there was no
deliberate intention by the con-
tractors to avoid signing the
agreements. E 1 d r i d Simmena
told The Times -Advocate they
bad been waiting for word that
the documents had been prepar-
ed and.were ready for signing.
Mayor Pooley indicated Wed-
nesday the matter had. been
settled.
To Open Park
Next Summer
The pin e r y Provincial
park, south of Grand Bend,
will not be open this sum-
mer, District Forester J. K.
Reynolds, Aylmer, said in a
report this week.
"We look forward,” he
said, "to the opening of ,the
park for public use about a
year from now."
He indicated considerable
progress has been mad.e on
the building of roads, prep-
aration of camp and park
areas since the work was
started last autumn. "How-
ever, we would li1 e. to
emphasize that the Pinery
will not be open during the
summer of 1958."
School Plan
To Council
It's expect ed McGillivray
School Area Board will. present
its request for funds to build a
$160,000 central school to the
township council at its regular
meeting Saturday afternoon.
It's also expected the council
will require that a vote be held
on the proposal before it gives
its approval.
Although some supporters of
the central. school feel a vote is
not necessary, Reeve Earl Dix-
on and his councillors have
taken a firm stand that the rate-
payers should be given an op-
portunity to express their. opin-
ions, ,
The vote will probably be held
in July.
Reeve Dixon said last week he
expected little or no council op-
position to the school board pro-
posal. "It's the sensible thing
to do," he commented.
Figures pr es en t ed by the
board show that the new school
could be erected without an in-
crease in taxes. This would not
be the case if the board. attempt-
ed major repairs to tit to
ancient one -room schools in the
area.
Increased grants front the pro-
vincial government make it pos-
sible for the board to construct
and operate the new school with
out s e e k i n g additional funds
