Times Advocate, 1984-09-26, Page 5Water line completed The second phase of the East Williams Township rural water system is nearing completion without provincial financing, Reeve Hilliard Stewart said Wednesday. East Williams has installed about -32 kilometres (20 miles) of pipeline in each of the last two years, to serve about 40 cutomers, at a cost of $405,000. The water has been tapped off a branch of the Lake Huron water line serv- ing Parkhill and West Williams Township. Farm connections have cost $7,400 and residential connections $3,900. Stewart said he is not op- timistic for an early decision on a provincial grant for the project after a delay on the creation of a provincial rural water policy. The system has received some money - $145,000 from the federal government through an employment stimulation grant - and even more is possible for further work, he said. This year's work, costing about $250,000 and serving about 20 customers, should be completed by the end of September, Stewart said. The area includes Highway 7 and its extension along Conces- sion Road 18 to near the Ausable River, southwest of Ailsa Craig: the west end of the Nairn Road, and the com- munities of Springbank and Fort Rose. Water has "really been needed" in the area being served this year, in the nor- thwest and southwest of the township. he said. The wells have not porduced enough water. 4.

Some antics planned Times -Advocate, September 26, 1984 Page 5 New students tog et welcome Grade nine welcome week activities kick off today (Wednesday) and continue on for the duration of the week at SHDHS. The activities plann- ed for the new high school students are designed to Middlesex match set The Middlesex County Plowing Match which is to be held on Saturday, October 6, on the farm of Doug Glenn, two miles north of the hamlet of Sylvan, (off No. 7 Highway), will include plow- ing, horse shoe pitching, log sawing, machinery demonstrations, and competi- tion for the Queen of the Furrow. Various community organizations may sponsor a girl to compete in the Queen of the Furrow event and the successful contestant will represent the County of Mid- dlesex at the International Plowing Match to be held in Elgin County in 1985. Contestants under 20 years of age may also compete at home in the Home Plowing Competition which requires the plowing of at least a three acre plot. Entries in the Queen of the Furrow competition and in the Home Plowing should be submitted to the secretary by October 1. All other com- petitors may register on the day of the match. Because those wishing to compete in the I.P.M. in 1985 in Elgin County must have achieved a prerequisite number of points in a previous local match, it is ex- pected that there will be keen interest in the Middlesex event this year. Awards will be presented at the annual banquet which is to be held on October 12 in the Delaware Community Centre with Ross Daily of CFPL-TV as guest speaker. Com- petitors in cthe Queen of the Furrow event will present their speeches at the Banquet as well with the topic to be farm safety.
