Of the need for all exportable Canadian food products no one should longer be in doubt. The first of a series of fortnightly cablegrams from France to the Food Controller states with a plainness that would be pitiful, if it were not so noble, how badly off the French civilians are. "The supply of breadstuffs -is causing grave anxiety. Imports are very' short. Our bread car machinery has been com- pleted. but present lack of cereals will not permit of its application." it says. What does that mean ? Simply that France is \do short of bread that it cannot risk even a readjustment of what must be literally ,%hand-to-mouth system. lest some should be manufactured. Mr. John Ransford. who for several years past has been sole proprietor of this industry. has thus been in business continuously for over fifty years. A long business career, certainly. "Everyone who was in business when we started fifty years ago," said'h1r. Ransford in conversation with The New,s- Record the other day. ''has eitner drop- ped out. been kicked out, or carried out to the cemetery." The veteran salt manufacturer and farmer of Tuckersmith looks gond for mane more years of activity, however. and he has a string of interests of one sort and another which will serve to fully occupy his time and to which he will have more time to devote now that he has not to look after the salt works.

After many years of agitati county council has at last agreed to for the appointment of a district agric tural representative for Huron county. It is probable that in a year or two it will be difficult to find anybody opposed to this move. The question suggests itself, why `"should Huron have for so many years k t itself out of the line of progres in this ma r g The postoffifeauthorities are not very alert iii the mattet'of having mails trans- ferred from a block line to a line that is open.

Moved by Ilackett and Richardson that the collec- tor's roll be now returned, and the collector relieved from the amount afore- said, the parties in arrears to be dealt with as provided by the stptutts. Moved by Richardson and Jamieson that the 83.78 of taxes levied in •1917 on the property of J. W. Ruddock, a soldier at the front, be refunded, as showing some appreciation for loyalty. Bylaw No. 1 of 1918, to borrow the money necessary to pay the interest due January 1st. 191s. on the guaranteed bonds of the Ontario W. Shore R. R. Co., was duly read a lirst. second and third time and passed. A motion by Richardson and Jamieson to allow $3 for rent of polling booths at the recent election was carried.

The appointing of a clerk, an assessor and a collector presentee! some difficulties. all of the old Officers refusing to continue at the old salaries. The matter was finally adjusted by the unani- mous approval of a motion by Jamieson and Richardson that the officers for 1917 be reappointed, the clerk's salary to be 8215. and that of the assessor and collect- or 8100 Tach. The treasurer. Wm. P.

Moved bt• Hackett and Johnston that the shop valuators, fence -viewers land pound - keepers of 1917 be reappointed, and that Dr. Simpson be reappointed medical officer of health and sanitary inspector, Wm. B. Hawkins be reappointed member of the local board of health, and that the clerk prepare the necessary bylaws for the several appointments and for fie- ing the salaries. After discussion, it was • decided to leave the matter of grants to' the various women's organizations for war work to the February meeting. owing to uncertainty as to action of the county council at the January session. The treasurer reported having received from the McIntyre estate the sum of 121.50. being one-half of the cost of trimming hedge. On motion of Jamieson and Richardson. several small accounts,, in- cluding the election expenses, the balance of collector s salary and sheep claim of R. L.

The Ford Saves the Hay and Oats the Horses Eat T HAS been estimated that five acres of land are required to maintain one horse for a year, and that the same five acres would produce nearly enough food for two people. Jf 50,000 Canadian farmers each replaced one horse with a Ford,'2.50.000 acres would be added to the 'Nation's source of food supply and enough extra food made available to feed 100,000 people. Just think what a great service this means to,the country at the present time and the benefit to the farmers from the 'sale of food produced on this acreage_ A Ford car also saves the farmer a weak or more of valuable time each year, which can be used for further productive work. ' The Ford travels three times as fast as a horse and rig -costs less to run and keep, and is far easier to take care of. \With labor so scarce and high priced, time means Toney, so do not delay in getting your Ford.
