The Exeter Times-Advocate, 1976-12-30, Page 15• Excellent teamwork has resulted in 1976 being a most successful year for United Co- operatives of Ontario, according to President Allan McIntosh. Mr. McIntosh and UCO General Manager, Julian Smith, told the delegates to the Co- operative's 29th annual meeting, December 14, that sales figures had topped 292 million dollars, the highest in UCO's history. The success of UCO waS at- tributed to strong co-operation between board and management and between member/owners and employees. A decline in world fertilizer prices resulted in a nine per cent reduction in savings over 1975 but a patronage return to members of 3.5 million dollars was still declared, 1976 was a year of growth for UCO with new facilities, ad- ditions and renovations taking place at numerous branches and member .co-operatives across Ontario. To keep in step with the changing needs of Ontario's rural communities, the Co- operative opened three building supply centres as well. UCO's petroleum services were upgraded during the year with several new gas bars, key lock pumps and bulk petroleum depo,ts being added to serye9 members' needs. Mr. Smith reported that 3,392 new members had been added during the year and that membership as a whole had sup- Open Reception 50th WEDDING ANNIVERSARY Mr. & Mrs. Nicholas Oud and 25th WEDDING ANNIVERSARY Mr. & Mrs. Nicholas Blom Fri., Jan.

According to Maurice Bean, first vice president of the Huron County Federation of Agriculture, farmers should take oil and gas leases seriously. A number of inquiries have been coming in from the area offices in this regard, he said. Mr. Bean said farmers should request the person representing the oil company to produce his licence from the Ministry of Energy before discussing any oil leasing arrangements. The going rate for leasing land is $1.00 per acre, however the Federation of Agriculture notes that some farmers have been approached to lease their property at fifty cents per acre. Farmers should know, Mr. Bean said, that the lease will be registered to their deed for the • total. term of the lease .an.oil company is in default of payment in subsequent years the land owner will discover that this lease remains attached to his ported their Co-operative's future by purchasing over $2 million in debentures.

To us all you were someone special Loving and kind and true You will never be forgotten Lloyd, For we thought the world of you. From the cluster of beautiful memories You return to us each day As in the hour you passed away We hide the tears when we speak your name But the ache in our hearts remains the same. Life goes on we know its true But not the same since we lost you. Lovingly remembered by wife Helen and family. 53 JONES — In loving memory of a dear brother-in-law who suddenly passed away, 2 years ago, January 1, 1975.

Sadly missed by brother-in-law, Arnold. 53p RODD — In loving memory of our mother Mabel, who passed away one year ago, January 2, 1976.

Just a thought from us who loved you, Just a memory fine and true, In our hearts you'll live forever Because we thought the world of you. Always loved and sadly missed by her family. 53p that work has begun on a major new feed mill in Peterborough, To insure future supplies of fer- tilizer for members, the Co- operative has also leased an ocean-going vessel, the "Cana- dian Farmer." deed until either the oil company releases it or the farmer gets legal help to provide that the said lease is in default. The Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources provides all oil companies with a standard lease with sections to !protect the land owner from future liabilities. This lease is not in- tended to restrict in any way the use of other lease forms in regard to drilling for oil. All oil com- panies must also apply to the Ministry of Energy for a drilling permit. At that point the Ministry of Natural Resources insists on a strict control of all construction to protect the land owner. Mr. Bean recommends that farmers should get legal advice if they are in any doubt about en- tering into an agreement with an oil company. In practice, he points out, it has been established that farmer leasing with major oil companies have few complaints or concerns but farmers should investigate and get as much information as possible before signing, JACKPOT $400 IN 56 CALLS EARLY BIRO JACKPOT \ $225 —14 REGULAR GAMES AT $10.00 PER GAME ADMISSION $1 INCLUDES 1 FREE CARD 'WED., JAN. 5 8:30 P.M. ZURICH ARENA SPONSORED BY ZURICH REC BOARD NO PERSON UNDER 16 WILL BE ADMITTED Huron County Council on Friday approved a proposed budget from the Social Services Committee for 1977, subject to review by the new council and the approval of the Ministry of Community and Social Services. The budget totals $337,400 of which the County's share is $107,930, Next year $268,900 will be set aside for general assistance as compared to $276,900 last year, homemakers and nurses services next year will be upfrom $8,000 to $8,500, supplementary aid in 1976 was $9,600 and will be $12,100 in 1977. Special assistance will be in- creased by $300 from the 1976 total of $11,400 to $11,700 and administration costs in 1977 are expected to total $76,100 as compared to $72,200 in 1976. The Social Services Committee caseload as of December 1 this year stood at 117 as compared to 109 in December 1, 1975. This number of cases is in the range experienced for the period of January to March 1976, the committee reported, which is considered normal. The highest months are November to March, as job op- portunities are fewer during the winter months in the local area. Part of the increase in November, the report explained, is due to various lay offs in the area. "One bright spot however is that Dominion Roads in Goderich has started to recall some of the 75 men which they laid off in November. Three of the department ern- ployable clients have been placed on the County Winter Works Program which is funded by the Federal Government under the Local Initiatives Program grant, VANASTRA RECREATION CENTRE R.R. #5, CLINTON BINGO EVERY MONDAY at 8 p.m. JACKPOT $200 IVIGOT 15 reg. games of $12.00 3 share-the-Wealth Door prizes and many other specials.
