Otherwise, the fate of the white bean and corn crops may not be too cheerful. In the centre and north ends of the county, a good deal of the cereal grains have been harvest- ed , but a lot of straw is still in the fields, Any not yet har- vested will suffer if wet weather continues. Mr. Pullen says he has received several reports the grain. kernals are not as plump as they should be thus bushel weight is down somewhat. This has been especially evident with malting barley, In the south end of the county, heavy rains have covered many fields in water and the white bean crop is in trouble. The heavy rains along with humid weather make white mould a definite hazard to the bean crop, Corn has fared little better, It is a hot weather crop and is going to need a lot of heat to ripen properly, In many cases Mr. Pullen says the crops will require hot frost-free days right until the end of September if there is going to be any good grain corn. The corn also needS some dry weather to do well, The straw in the south end of the county particularly is suffer- ing from the wet weather, Too much dampness makes the straw poor quality for bedding and any farmers who still have cattle will feel the pinch. Some second cut hay has also suffered because of the weather as the only time so far when good quality was able to be put in was the first two weeks of June. To overcome this problem many farmers have switched to hay- lege. In this form the bay may be put in the silo in a damp state as haylege is high moisture, Thus the wet weather hasn't hurt anyone using this type of hay storage to any great extent and according to Mr. Pullen, it is definitely becoming a trend. The next couple of weeks will tell the tale. If we have good hot dry weather, not too much damage has been done. Anything else and things will go from bad to worse. Red brick • • is unique The red bricks being used on the main street in Zurich will not be as easy to remove as you might think. At the moment the bricks are just fitted into place and it would be an easy task to remove one or two. However, this condition will not last long as the final touches are made to the street. A sand finish coat is applied between the bricks and they are then vibrated into place. As they are also being laid on a sand base, the vibration imbeds them firmly and removing one would not be an easy task. The bricks themselves are unique in this area and are basic- ally the outcome of Zurich's secondary plan of the official Huron County plan. It was felt they would promote the Swiss or Bavarian style, as the new municipal office does. The gaps in the bricks are not, alas, for garbage cans, they are for sod and trees. Council has decided to go ahead and get the trees this fall, doing the actual planting themselves to save money. A variety of trees will be chosen and hopefully those who live on the street or have businesses there will do whatever they can to keep the trees alive and beautiful. By MRS. HAMILTON HODGINS Mr. & Mrs. Bill Morley at- tended a Convention for the Association of Municipal Officers at the Royal York Hotel Toronto three days last week. Rev. & Mrs. Ray Brewster Lucan visited last Thursday with Mr. & Mrs.' Ernest Ferguson. Steven Foster, son of Mr. & Mrs. Jim Foster Stratford is holidaying with his grandmother Margery Morley. Mr. & Mrs. Earl French visited with Mr. & Mrs. Ron Henderson Bright on Sunday afternoon. Many in the the community attended Lucan Fair on the weekend. Many attend drain hearing Several residents of Exeter and Stephen were on hand Tuesday for the Environmental Board hearing into the proposed Waterloo Street storm sewer. The sewer is being planned as a joint project between the councils of Stephen and Exeter. Several objections were raised by neighboring property owners, one of the main ones being that the outlet for the drain was already over-taxed. Members of the board gave no indication when a decision will be made on the sewer.
