Prov. budget provides for economy and election hopes In c se anyone was in doubt, the provincial budget brought down Monday evening certainly clinched the conclusion that there will be an election this year. Treasurer Darcy McKeough an- nounced tax concessions and nthwr "(fondles" which will cost the province an estimated $600 million and will contribute to a total financing deficit of $1.2 billion — possibly lar$er than that of the federal government. In all fairness, many of the budget's concessions will ease the burden on low income fami- lies, as well as providing stimula- tion for the economy generally in the hope of increasing employ- ment. Included in the budget items were: Provincial sales tax cut from 7 per cent to 5 per cent for the balance of this year. Sales tax totally removed from machinery and equipment used in the processing of consumer goods. Increased payments under the provincial guaranteed incomes system which will benefit some 303,000 pensioners, as well as free drugs for all persons on old age WINGHAM BODY SHOP Complete Collision Repairs and Painting Towing Service Radiator Cleaning and Repairs SID ADAMS Proprietor WINGHAM, ONT.

Turn in hides, 3 district men win in draw During and after the 1974 moose and deer season the Minis- try of Natural Resources lected deer and moose hides from successful hunters. These hides are tanned and turned over to the native people of the province, who in turn make jackets, gloves, etc., which are sold by them. In the past, some type of reward was given by the Ministry to the persons turning in deer or moose hides. In 1974, rather than do this, a province -wide draw was held in which persons turn- ing in moose or deer hides were given a ticket on a draw for a hand made deerskin jacket, a pair of deerskin gloves, a pair of mukluks, and a pair of slippers. By a strange coincidence, three of the four articles were won by people living in the Wingham dis- trict : the coat by Carl Weber, Mildmay; mukluks, Neil Walker, Zurich; and mitts by Gary Player, Stratford.
