T. MONTEITH EXETER LTD. 235-2121 "The best in service when you need it most!" Avoid debate on jail house Huron County Council neatly sidestepped any public discussion in October of the decision on the future of the Huron County jail. The property committee report given by Ken F. McMichael said the "matter was under study" and would be discussed with county Council "as soon as possible." He added that members were "agreed" that not too much should be said about the project at the present time. Present calculations are that there will be seven additional deputy-reeves in county council next year due to the increase in new voters in certain municipalities. Plans are made to provide for seating of these new members in the already small council chambers. The Social services ad- ministrator, J. A. MacKinnon told council that costs in his department flucuate from time to time, "During the June 1972 session, a report was presented to you comparing gross social assistance costs from January 1 to April 30 between 1971 and 1972 showing an increase from $107,- 097.69 in 1971 to $109,332.51 in 1972." said Mackinnon. "The gross costs for the period January I to September 30 shows a decrease from $211,836.63 in 1971 to $181,270.82 in 1972. This decrease comes as a result of the Province of Ontario taking over the majority of Nursing Home costs through the Extended Care Program provided by the Ontario Health Insurance Plan," he ex- plained. Council learned that the cir- culation of adult books from the Huron County library shows an encouraging increase of 19,000 offset by a decline in juvenile reading to give a new rise of 12,222 and a total 1972 circulation to the end of September of 256,- 833, "As in previous reports, cir- culation of our juvenile books on deposit in elementary schools is not recorded so that the decrease shown is hardly significant," said county librarian Miss Ethel Dewar. Considerable time was spent on the executive committee report in which a Victorian Order Nurses request for a grant of $2,000 was discussed and finally turned down. The vote was 29 against the grant and eight in favor. The next meeting of council is set for the first Thursday in December. Man fined $25 on theft charge An Exeter man, Lawrence E. Foster, was fined $25 on a charge of theft when he appeared before Judge Glenn Hays in Exeter this week, He was charged after a Hensall area girl reported to police her ring had been taken by Foster on May 28. The girl had been invited to go for a ride with a group of males in a car and when she refused, they attempted to pull her into the car. In the scuffle, her ring fell off and Foster picked it up and refused to give it back. She finally received it back from a friend a day or two after the incident. The court was told that Foster said he wouldn't give the ring back unless the girl got into the car. In his own defence, Foster said he did not pull the ring off, but he had picked it up and after one of the other men had pulled it off, He said he had expected to see the girl later and had planned to give it back to her, Judge Hays ruled that Foster had intended to deprive the girl of her possession and that con- stituted theft. An Ontario Milk Marketing Board regulation that allows it to set, reduce or take away quotas on dairy producers is beyond its constitutional powers and must be set aside, the Supreme Court of Canada said. The high court also struck down a board regulation giving it the power to refuse licences to persons to engage in the producing of milk for financial or other reasons. However the nine Supreme Court judges rejected a challenge that the Milk Commis- sion of Ontario, to which the board is responsible, is itself unconstitutional. Brant Dairy Co, and Walkerton Dairies Ltd., both small producers with their own herds of cattle and engaged in producing, processing and dis- tributing of milk, challenged the regulations of the milk board. George Campbell, co-owner of Brant Dairy said the case had been before the courts for four years. almost since the inception of the Ontario Milk Marketing Board. He said the firm operated a 180-cow herd and wanted to en- sure that it could retain control over its own milk. Under the OMMB, the milk from Brant Dairy cows could theoretically have been picked up by tank truck and delivered to another Plant. The annual anti-rabies vaccina- tion clinics held throughout Huron County were completed last week and a total of 6,218 animals were treated. Dr. W. J. Thompson of Seaforth, the sub-district veterinarian for the Canada Department of Agriculture said this year's figure was 113 lower than in 1971 when the figure reached an all-time high of 6,331. In 1970 5,378 animals were treated. The clinics were originated in 1966 and Dr. Thompson said he expects they will continue. The Seaforth veterinarian continued, "Rabies is something we will have to live with. The disease in skunks and foxes is hard to con- trol." Thompson again emphasized that his office in Seaforth may be called if any animals are noticed to be acting strangely, The number of animals treated during the recent clinics in the southern portion of Huron follows — Hayfield 197, Brucefield 205, Exeter 404, Zurich 178, Hensall 234, Dashwood 163, Crediton 199, Elimville 229 and Grand Bend 190, In most communities the number of dogs treated- out- numbered cats by a good margin "We wanted to make sure we could have control over our own milk," said Mr. Campbell. "Our production accounts for a very small portion of our total re- quirements; we pick milk up from 27 other producers. "We weren't fighting the board, as such," he said; "I don't know what is going to happen now." Mr. Campbell said that the Walkerton firm produced all its own milk requirements, and ac- cording to the board, could have been forced to sell its milk and buy back milk from the board. "He had a direct pipeline milking system that delivered his milk directly to his dairy from the barn," said Mr. Campbell, "yet the board wanted to have control over his milk." But the court threw out their. main challenge—that it was il- legal to require them to sell their milk to the Ontario Milk Marketing Board and unlawful to oblige them to buy milk from the board for processing and dis- tribution to customers, They also failed in their challenge of board regulations which say only per- sons the board appoints shall transport milk. Lawyers from the federal justice department and from Quebec joined the Ontario board in arguing the validity of the marketing plan. except in Brucefield and Elim- ville. Elimville 116 dogs and 113 cats were treated while in Brucefield it was 103 dogs and 102 cats. "I'll tell you what's wrong with the younger generation.
