The prolonged wet weather, recently accompanied by snow, continues to hinder corn har- vesting and plowing. Many streams and drainage ditches are nearly at spring level. Because of the miserable weather conditions practically all livestock are now stabled in preparation for the winter season. While quality will be lower because of weathering, most stored feed supplies appear to be adequate for the winter feeding period. Commenting about 196'7, many "old timers" have been heard to say that, in their memory, they have "never seen the like" for rain and difficult harvesting conditions. as of Brussels brought greetings from the county. sill Coultes introduced the guest speaker, James Jacklin of Chesley, Zone 2 director of 0,F.A, and a member of the board of governors of O.F.A.

Saturday, November 11 was declared a holiday until 1 p.m. GODERICH-- Substantial salary increases for most Huron County officials were voted without debate at the Novem- ber Session of Huron County Council in Goderich Monday. Effective date is January 1, 1968, for all raises. Changes approved were as follows: Clerk-Treasurer John G. Berry, increased by $500 per annum to $12,000, plus $500 car allowance; Deputy Clerk-Treasurer B. G. Haply, increased by $500 per annum to $7,900, plus $600 car allowance; County Assessor Alexander A. Alexander, increased by $500 per annum to $8, 000; Safety Construction Inspect- or Everett Smith, increased by $200 per annum to $5, 000; Secretarial staff, each sal- ary increased by $240 per an- num to the following figures: Mrs. Martin Schneiker, $4,860; Mrs. Mildred Simpson, $4,380-, Mrs. Geraldine Stinson, $3, - 480; Miss Laura White, $3, 480 Mrs. Mona Adams, $3, 840. The committee said it would like to thank Everett Smith, safety construction in- spector, for his co-operation throughout the year, and the fact that he has been quite willing to assist in any other department when not busy with safety construction work. Recommendations of the committee adopted regarding cost of transportation to con- vention, to allow more control, were as follows: three dele- gates attending a convention -- one mileage to be paid; four to six delegates attending -- two mileages to be paid except where circumstances warrant otherwise on approval of the committee concerned. Everett U. McIlwain, War- den's and Personnel committee chairman, informed council that last year, council corn- menced the policy of establ- ishing salaries for the forth- coming year at the November Session. "This system has worked out quite satisfactorily because not only are the employees advised well in advance as to salary for the forthcoming year, but also it gives the payroll depart- ment an opportunity of prepar- ing the necessary documents just once, and then they are complete for the year. "When salary changes are made in the current year, a considerable amount of work is involved, especially in con- nection with Canada Pension, income tax and unemployment insurance deductions, etc." Mr. Mcllwain also brought up the matter of the cost of sending delegates to conven- tions which he said always has been a concern of County Coun- cil. In an endeavour to keep these costs to a minimum, and at the same time send reason- able representation from the county to as many conventions as possible, the committee made several recommendations which were adopted: No delegate to Canadian Public Health Association; one delegate, either clerk or deputy clerk, to Municipal Clerks' and Finance Officers' Associa- tion; delegates to Ontario As- sociation of Rural Municipali- ties reduced from three to one, the Warden; two delegates only to International Plowing Match, Warden and chairman Agricul- ture Committee; two delegates to Ontario School Trustees' As- sociation. Elgin Thompson, Tucker- smith, wondered why it was necessary to send delegates to the International Plowing Match when it wasn't being held in Huron County. The Warden said it had always been done. Proposal to authorize send- ing seven delegates, with ex- penses, to the Ontario Good Roads Convention in Toronto produced a sharp query from Clarence Boyle, reeve of Exe- ter. The seven would include the county engineer and mem- bers of the County Roads Com- mittee. Mr. Boyle wanted to know why the County of Huron had to set up a county room at the Good Roads Convention to enter, tain people from Exeter and other places in the county, and other visiting firemen. He pointed out that Exeter already was billed for $40, 000 through the county levy and why make the taxpayers pay twice? "It's just money wasted!" he de- clared. Better lighting for Belgrave Reeve Stewart Procter pre- sided at the meeting of the Morris Township Council last week when it was decided that Ross Smith and Reeve Procter investigate in regard to more street lights for Belgrave and apply to Hydro to have the ne- cessary lights installed. Road accounts passed for payment amounted to $13, 280.1L John G. Berry was authorized to purchase for Morris any of the township's unsold land at the adjourned tax sale in December. The general accounts were ordered paid.
