February 22, 1971 Dear Mr. Editor, At last week's meeting of Exeter Town Council an increase in garbage rates was requested mainly "because of the large increase in the amount of garbage being taken weekly to the local dump." As taxpayers we are going to have to pay for this increased cost and as citizens we, or our children, are going to pay for this increase in pollution. May I suggest three ways in which each household can reduce its contribution of garbage? 1. Buy soft drinks in returnable bottles. Refuse to buy such drinks in non-returnable containers. 2. Start now to save suitable glass containers so that you can make at least some of your own pickles, jams and jellies this next summer. This reduction in garbage will be twofold: you will keep bottles purchased this year and next year you will not have modernizing the local government, in developing the town manager system and in a resistance to further incursions by provincial government into local affair. "Local people," he says, "are most capable of managing local affairs. Experiments with bureaucratic control have proved both expensive and inefficient and in the long run could destroy people's faith in democratic government 'and in GRANT STEVENSON themselves. Of course local governments must prove their ability and to do this they must continue to demand the authorities they need and a fair share of the provincial tax dollar." Mr. Shabsove said he chose Exeter for his next discount store because he was attracted by the good appearance of the main street, the way in which people here seem to support their own town and the fact that a discount store with his specialized stock did not exist here.

Plan now to have your own compost pile. Vegetable peelings, fruit rinds, coffee grounds, tea bags, grass cuttings, fallen leaves, weeds, when mixed with earth will rot and produce valuable humus for the soil.
