LAKELAND A UNIQUE SPECIALTY FIRM SERVING THIS AREA 420 Bayfield Rd., CUNTON 482-3433 The things you can do with ready mixed concrete to improve, remodel or even build your home or vacation lot are just about limitless. Even though concrete is simply a mixture of cement, fine aggregates such as sand, coarse aggregates such as gravel or crushed rock and water, the mixture and matenals must be perfect for durability, watertightness and required strength. One of the rewarding things about getting work done with ready mixed concrete in any of their various forms is that you get a lot for a little money. The ideal way for many owners to get concrete today is to buy it already mixed and delivered to your home and poured into your forms or your wheelbarrow. After you have had excavating done and have had the forms built and braced, you can have LAKELAND READY MIX deliver their quality ready mixed concrete. LAKELAND READY MIX is locally owned and operated by GARY and MURRAY CONNOLLY. The firm serves commercial and industrial needs as well as residential and farm owners requirements. You may require ready mixed concrete for a planned basement floor, barbecue foundation, driveway, foundations for farms, garage floor, sidewalk, or porch floor. Even if you're just a novice, the people of this firm can assist you with the knowledge of when concrete requires steel reinforcing such as with sidewalks, driveways, etc. They offer computerized batching for consistent and quality controlled loads. Only approved, washed and graded materials are used. Their radio dispatched trucks have become a familiar site in this area. We feel that the ready mixed concrete products of LAKELAND READY MIX are strong, but their service and reputation are just as durable. Trucking • Excavating PROVIDES MOST EXPERIENCED SERVICES TO THE AREA R.R. 3, Clinton Shop 482-9926 Res. 482-9212 Excavation and haulage is much more than merely shuffling aggregates about. It takes years of experience for equipment operators and site foremen to manipulate the landscape in order to cater to the customers requirements, while also knowing how that landscape must be shaped; if rainfall drainage is not taken into consideration, it could result in many disgruntled property owners and neighbours. The people at MERNER CONTRACTING LTD. can properly estimate the cost of excavation and earth moving on your property after evaluating how much of each type of material is involved, what it will cost to handle, what equipment need be used, and what disposition can be made of the excavated material. "No Job Is Too Big Or Too Small". This is a local business owned and operated by GARRY MERNER who serves a 25 mile radius. Over the years, they have proven they have the skill and experience needed to excavate or move earth on a site, whether it be excavating, grading, land filling, farm ponds, or haulage of sand, gravel, top soil, and landfill. Their well maintained equipment includes backhoes, graders, haulers, dozers, and tandem dump trucks. MERNER CONTRACTING LTD. is to be commended for carefully planning every detail and for estimates which are accurate. Thus, best value is provided for customers as well as being profitable enough for the firm to continue to be successful. LES'S COUNTRY MEATS WHERE VARIETY, QUALITY AND VALUE GO TOGETHER R.R. #4, PARKHILL (2 miles W. of Ailsa Craig) 293-3145 LES'S COUNTRY MEATS is a business that has left a good impression with customers who continue to patronize this shop.

They have the finest Country Style Sausage and Smoked Meats in the area and their custom killing service is widely used by many people. LES DRURY, the owner, can show and prove to you he actually can save you money by buying in bulk. Since meat preservation was a problem before the invention of refrigeration, preserved meat was always popular. In the middle ages, sausage makers developed individual formulas for seasoning their products, which frequently took the name of the city where they originated such as Frankfurt, Genoa, Bologna, etc. Today, seasonings added to sausages are not a must for preservation but for taste. When you walk into this house of meats, you will get a cheerful greeting from the staff. If you don't see what you are looking for in a particular cut of meat, then just ask, because service is what they have built the reputation on Good customer relations because of quality products and attentive service to customers needs, assures LES'S COUNTRY MEATS of continued success. If you are not satisfied with your present source of meat supply, then we suggest that you visit LES'S COUNTRY MEATS. YOUR R.V. HEADQUARTERS Highway 4 North at Hwy. 7 (Elginfield) 519-227-4700 If the thought of camping on the ground in a tent doesn't sound appealing, but you like the idea of getting outdoors and travelling inexpensively, maybe you should consider the purchase of a recreational vehicle. Today's RV's are more than campers; they combine ease of transportation and temporary living quarters, some of which are quite plush. Most of the newer units have integrated the comforts of home like running water, power sources, furnaces, cooking amenities, toilets, showers, beds; others offer such further options as air conditioning, TV's, VCR's, microwaves, etc. RV's are well designed to ride or tow along efficiently with the least amount of fuel consumption, and offer plenty of storage space for cargo. Contrary to some thinking, many travel trailers today are towable by the car or pick-up truck you own already. The newer motor homes on the market today are significantly more aerodynamic that the converted school buses or totally square models of the past and are just like driving a car, only a little bigger. Automatic transmissions, power brakes and steering, large windows and extra mirrors allow convenient manoeuver- ability, and motor home owners seem to particularly enjoy the direct access to the living areas from the driver's cockpit. NORTHGATE HOMES AND RV CENTRE can provide a recreational vehicle to suit your family's requirements while staying within your budget. Since opening Nov. 11, 1992 owner GARY RUSSELL has taken the time to show consumers the advantages of one model or RV style over the others, and offer helpful suggestions to make your choice a little easier. They feature fifth wheels, travel trailers, vans, motor homes, and park models plus parts and service. GARY'S wife ELAINE is opening a gift and art shop in the near future. The store will be located in the same building as the RV Centre and will offer unique items including pottery, handicrafts, prints, jewellery, wooden items and art from many local artists. When you come to the conclusion that purchasing a recreational vehicle can otfer many advantages to fit your lifestyle, visit the people at NORTHGATE HOMES AND RV CENTRE. MILTON J.

The vast majority of people usually buy their produce at a store they trust. When you require a specific service or product, experience has shown that it is always wisest to consult a specialist.

The management will pay particular attention when making purchases at the food terminals so that your produce and fruit gets from its place of origin to your table as soon as possible.
