An estimate of 2350,000 for the cost
of building and equipping the propos-
ed new Mount Forest District High
school was given by the School Board
to a Town Council deputation on Mon-
day of last week.
The estimate was given to Mayor
Ross McLellan and councillors Russell
Neal and George Hartwright who
came to the board meeting for inform-
ation that would help in making up
the town budget, following conversa-
tion last week in Toronto.
Mayor McLellan in turn, informed
the Board he estimated the town's tax
rate this year at 89.33 mills, without
making provision for the new school.
This compares with last year's rate
of 78 mills. It was the first hint of
this year's rate.
Previous statements on school costs
have made it clear that the provincial
government would pay 75 per cent of
the cost up to 5330,000. This is based
on 11 teaching units at $30,000 each,
Mount Forest and six neighbouring
townships, Parts of which are in the
school district, would share in the
balance. Mount Forest's share has
been calculated at 31 per cent.
Construction Costs $292,000
A letter from the architects estim-
ated actual construction cost for a
school with 22,500 square feet area at
the rate of $13 a square foot.—Mount
Forest Confederate.

pheasant farms, some 50,000 young
birds will be made available this sum-
mer to sportsmen's organizations and
townships for distribution in the
Lakes Huron, Erie and Simcoe, and
the Trent, Quint° and Rideau districts
according to present Department of
Lands and Forests plans, the Minister
Harold R. Scott, announced recently,
Approximately, allotments will per-
mit the Lake Erie district to receive
15,000 day-old chicks and 9,000 poults.
These will come from the Norman-
dale farm. Normandale will also sup-
ply 6,000 chicks to the Lake Huron
district, These will be supplemented
by 9,000 chicks and 6,000 poults from
Codrington to make up the district's
quota, Tht Trent district's quota will
be 2,500 chicks, and a large number of
poults will be divided between that
district and Quinte. The Rideau dis-
trict will receive some 2,5000 chicks
and 500 poults.
The day-old chicks will be turned
over to the distributing co-operators,
the Minister explained, and retained
by them for six weeks in brooders.
They will then be taken afield and
freed by the "gentle-releaSe" system.
Food will be set out alongside the re-
lease pens for as long as the young
pheasants return in search of it, he
pointed out.
He also declared that about 2,000

Raised on Ontario government their quolas of eggs will be released
in several areas. Many of these wil,
resume nesting after release.
"We would like to increase the pro-
duction of young birds to improve
pheasant populations and hunting in
Ontario," the Minister stated, "but we
are limited as to space. If sportsmen's
associations and townships could ar-
range to accept more day-old chicks
for rearing to release age, we could
provide for increased production cor-
respondingly in the freed space."
Only an acre of forest was burned!
But it was the first forest fire to be
reported in Ontario this season. Start-
ed by a camper's carelessness in the
Kenora district on Sunday, April 13,
it indicates that the human factor is
still our greatest for'bst fire hazard.
