Accompanying - them were Mr. and Mrs. Charles Corbett of Ailsa Craig. Their first stop was , at Tahiti in the South Seas where they spent two days. From there it was on to Australia with headquarters in Melbourne; This was .an especially interesting aspect of the whole trip for Alan - as he met relatives descended from his great grandfather whom he had never seen before. From Australia it was over 'to New Zealand .and a visit to both the Norrth. and South Islands. Of the two islands the North appeared to be agriculturally more progressive with its wealth of green growth.- Well-known for its sheep raising this island- boasts over twenty different breeds. The last stop was at the island of Fiji, once British owned now enjoying in- dependence. To.dispel an idea this writer had of a life of indolence and ease on golden sands under waving palms - Evetyn Galbraith reported an advertisement in one of the '' papers there for ''a manager- ' must anager- mush be wilting to work long hours seven days a week.'

Locked in The -warden said there isn't an answer to this problem. "You are locked in, there's no denying it." He hoped that farmers would sell their farms when prices are good. "If we retain land in agriculture the price will come up to what it should be, I hope". Warden McCutcheon said that if a developer had the foresight to see what land would be annexed .to ahamlet or town and be available for housing he would benefit.. "There's no doubt about it." Ralph -Foster of Ashfield Township said his son had bought 70 acres with a house and barn. He'S going to pull down the barn: Can the house be severed and sold? Since Ashfield doesn't have a secondary plan yet; the severance wouldbe allowable under the official plan, the warden answered. Enough land to fill health unit requirements would have to go with the house, but the county's land division committee frowns on severing too much land, he said. Warden McCutcheon confirmed for Bill Mann of Grey that two adjacent 100 acre farms owned by the same person have to be severed before one 100 acre parcel can be sold, even if the parcels are on separate deeds. "The province tied this up," he said, but added that there shouldn't be any problem severing the 100 acres, "as long as it's a viable farming operation." Betty Stafford of Howick expressed concern' about several new houses going up on a couple of Amish farm in her area, "sprouting like mushrooms", almost over- night. Warden McCutcheon. told her that severances might have been obtained before the Howick plan became official. "They may be trying to get in under the wire." he said and promised to look into circumstances. "We may think we're getting a big price by selling a lot, but in the long run we're devaluing our farm" said .George Adams of Turnberry. who wanted to know if Morris. Township had assembled lots on the edge of Belgrave and made them available. The warden said he thought the lots in question were in Belgrave but that the country had had to insist on a plan of subdivision there. because houses were being built a quarter mile apart. The Ontario Wheat Producers' Marketing Board has announced it plans to make an interimpayment to producers about April 1st in the amount of 85 cents per bushel. • Board chairman Fergus Young, RR I, Ennismoire, made the announcement following a meet'ng of the board, held .Fehr ary 3 and pointed out that a payment will apply to 1975 crop wheat sold by producers. Mr. Young said producer sales to date exceed 19.6 million bushels which has been purchased by the board and total board sales to both domestic and export markets to date total approximately 16 Million bushels. This leaves the board with about 3.5 million bushels of unsold stocks on hand at the present time. Producers have received an initial payment of 52.00 per bushel and the interim payment to be made from the pool will add an additional 85 cents per bushel to the price received by producers. Retire Where? Retiring in towns and hamlets is all very well, but "where could we retire in W ingham when there's a shortage of building lots? Bev Brown wanted to know. Towns and hamlets will have - to annex when they run out of land, the -warden replied. He told Miss Brown that prime farm . land along Highway 86 near Wingham had been developed because there was no secondary plan to prevent it in either Morris or Turn - berry townships; on both sides of the highway. The warden brought a copy of 'the county's tree cutting by-law and the county planning board's recom- mendation to municipal councils that they ban open storage . lagoons to the meeting's attention. The planning board should have discussed the .open lagoon question with the Federation first,, before making a recommendation to the Townships, Huron F of A president Vos said.
