Deputy reeve Robert Bell said he was very disappointed only to see three at the meeting representing in- dustry, (Steve Rathwell, representing Central Machining; L. Oesch Woodworking and Ben Bridges, flea market owner.) "I fell they should be here to voice their opinions," Bridges said. "Certain larger' industrialists in the area felt we were sticking our noses into their business. Mr. Owens said an in- dustrial first aid fire brigade could be helpful and Bridges said that is what he has always wanted - one for the industrial area and it could be used, if needed, in the "Established 1876" McKILLOP MUTUAL FIRE INSURANCE COMPANY HEAD OFFICE: 10 MAIN ST.; SEAFORTH, ONT Mrs. Margaret Sharp, Sec.

He said an industrial fire committee was formed but only three meetings were held and no more called. He said one of the industries, a boat works, was talking about an expensive sprinkler system. "I think the answer is a first aid industrial fire department." Owens said, "We know the problems. I see a complete lack of communications. It is the problem of Vanastra. Lay your problem out in writing - the manpower available, the hours, everything. I will give y.ou all the information I can. The ball has been bounced into your court. It is up to you. I am available but I do get frustrated when no one is available when I travel up here to discuss a problem." Fertilize trees and -shrubs now Trees and shrubs benefit from fall fertilization, says R.A. Fleming, Ontario ministry of agriculture and food horticulturist. Applying low -nitrogen fertilizer now, when plants are dormant for the winter, will stimulate top growth in the spring when the nutrients, are released from the roots and stems. For fall application Mr. Fleming recommends fer- tilizers high in phosphorous and potash but low in nitrogen. "Roots absorb only small quantities of nitrogen in the fall," he says. "Any excess is leached from the soil by winter rain and snow." However, potash and phosphorous leach very little during the winter and will be available to the plant roots as soon as growth starts in the spring, Home gardeners should use commercial fertilizers such as 6-24-24, 8-16-16, or 5-10-15 for trees and shrubs in the late fall.. These numbers indicate the percentage of nitrogen, phosphate and potash (in that order) r. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE,, ASK YOUR HEART FOUNDATION. R.K.

Phone 482-7103 Richard Lenehan, Vanastra resident, said he found it difficult to believe that the survey report should not be made public. He said his question is, "Do we really need a fire department. Is there anyway we could make a contribution to upgrade the ones we have in the area?" Robin Gates, president of the Community Association said, "I don't believe we have a problem." He referred to the recent report Clerk Jack McLachlan said he had sent in to the Public Fire Por- tection Survey Services, an insurance advisory organization, "which if it comes back from Toronto that our standards are okay, then we have no problem, just the insurance companies." Councillor Robert Drummond cited an example that by shopping around you do get better premium rates. As the meeting concluded Owens and Reeve Sillery both said it was up to the Vanastra ratepayers to present their proposal to council for study.. "We hope to hear from whoever carries the ball," concluded the reeve.
