Huron County Council. Members passed the document quickly and easily causing Mr. Berry to comment," I had better luck than John White." "There is no increase in the demands on local municipalities for this year," he told council. "Any extra moneys have. been taken from the surplus. At the end of 1972 the surplus totalled $317,875 and if this budget were followed exactly as presented, by the end of 1973, the surplus would have been reduced to $110,411. In other words, we are using approximately $215,000 of surplus funds in order that the demands on the taxpayer will not increase. The total budget calls for over five million dollars. Of that amount, .$3,402,543 comes from county sources; the rest is funded by government. The Hon. John White was mentioned again during the ses- sion when the Planning Board report was read. ChairmanGir- yin Reed noted that while _ the official plan had gone to the Ministry of Treasury, Economics and Intergovernmental Affairs it had not been signed andreturned. "The Minister had other things on his mind the last couple of weeks so I guess he didn't get around to signing it," ob- served Reeve Reed. The chairman also drew attention to the fact that John L. Cox has been retained by the planning board for the summer months. Mr. Cox, a student, has been hired under a program called "Experience 73" in which the Province of Ontario pays 75 percent of the students salary for the summer. He will be paid $125 per week and will be gather- ing data for secondary plans. council learned that wage in- creases have been granted to the engineers at Huronview amount- ing to 60 cents over a year and a half.

Thurs- day's session of county council. It was learned the county is planting 2,100 six foot to eight foot hardwood trees this spring. These hardwoods are in addit- ion to 3,000 seedling white pines and red pines which will also be planted this spring by county forces. In 1972, the county pla.nted 900 six foot high hardwood trees at various locations throughout the county on a trial basis. "We find that 80 percent to 90 percent of the hardwood trees survived the first winter and consider the project successful," claimed county engineer Jim Britnell. "To our knowledge Huron is the only county in On- tario with a tree replacement program of this magnitude." , "We estimate that about 3,000 elm and other tree varieties on county roadsides have been cut over the past eight or ten years due to Dutch elm and other diseases, old age and storm damage," reported Britnell. "We hope to be able to Continue this replacement program and in some small way help to beautify Our roadsides." Somebody Wants What You Don't Need!
