may already have read the
following exerpt from the
Friday. October 1 edition. It
provides food for thought and
the idea might be worth
emulating by other targe
Institutions. Written by
Thomas Coleman - Globe and
Mail Reporter' it reads, in
part:
"Just by enforcing a ban on
smoking and eating in its
classrooms this year,
Dalhousie University plans to
save "a conservative" $80,000
from its 1976.77 operating
budget.
"Bpi that's only the
beginning.
"As part of an all-out
university campaign to trim
$400,000 in unnecessary ex-
penditures, D.alhotisie's
toilets are being adjusted to
flush with 30 percent less
water. non-essential lights
are being removed, turned off
or their wattage is being
lowered. And even the
showers in gymnasiums and
residences have been ad-
justed so they don't spray as
much water as they used to..
''So far, the widely
publicized SOS - Switch Off
and Save - program at the

met with general acceptance,

affairs, London said at an
IODE meeting ..41(3110.14.itigilt
in tbe Agricultural''Office
rrnm
Murphy, the daughter
, Joe and Mary Murphy,
Clinton, explained that the
rPose of the Ministry is to
protect the rights of the
consumer and to encourage
the consumer to be, respon-
sible for his own actions.
She outlined some ways in
which a consumer can be
more careful before he makes
purchase.
• "Always try before you
buy. There are no standards
to regulate quality and it is
your resppnsibility to check
out the quality and give the
item a thorough in-
vestigation," Miss Murphy
said,
AsA
an example to that type
of investigation, Miss Murphy
told the group she took a book
iota store where she thought
she saw a chair she wanted,
and sat down in the chair and
• read for 20 minutes.
"I felt a little foolish-, but as
a consumer, it is my right to
check out the item before I
buy it. I bought the chair
because I found it to be very
comfortable," she said.

3s300,000.silo addition
at Fleming's Feed Mill
Along with a $300,000 ad-
dition at Fleming's Feed
Mills in Clinton, have come
some changes which were
designed in consideration of
their neighbors.
Fleming's is in the process
of completing a four -silo
addition on the site. Three of
the silos have been built and
workers are just finishing the
fourth. The silos are 110' high
by, 30' wide and each have a
60,000 bushel capacity. The
addition makes a total 01 15
silos at the mill. Together,
they hold a total of 650,000
bushels of corn.
As well as the silos, another
gas-fired corn dryer has been
added, making a total of two,
and, the mill was painted.
Bill Fleming said the
reason for all the changes
was more corn in the area. He
said this year's corn crop
started coming in last
Thursday and added the crop
looks very good this year.
Asked if the company would
increase its staff because of
the additions. Mr. Fleming
said, "just during harvest
time."
In consideration of their
neighbors, a nearby trailer
park, the feed mill has built a
bentent block wall around the
dryer to cut down on noise,
Mr_ Fleming said. The
company is also in the
process of installing a dust -
collection system. The 35,000
addition is being installed at
the receiving Iag or the mill.
It should cut down con-
siderably on the amount of
dust, Mr. Fleming said.

When asked about con-
tracts, Miss Murphy said that
once a person has signed a

agreement and nothing can
be done to retract it.
"The only case where you
have any time to cancel a
contract, is when the contract
is signed in your own home.

can cancel, by registered
