Report New Contacts
In Industrial Quest
Several new contacts were Made
last year by Goderich 'industrial
rCo nisi n id its efforts to bring
new industries ,here, Town Council
was told Frier Wight.
A.ceording to the industrial
body's annual report, °9Me de elop-
ed the following groups of nevi'
contacts --(two industrial develop-
ment firms, dour foreign ttrbde
eonsulates, six, industrial firms,
possible re -locating, expansion' or
development industries, and for-
eign offices sof railroads and
banks."
The report, signed by William
Anderson, secretary -treasurer, con-
"llinued, "It is the belief of the
members of the commission that
at this point we should enlarge our
program for the eurrest year which
will require an increased grant
from the town.
'tDetails ted the enlarged pro-
gram will be worked out and a
pr
epics. d n budgetunear bmitted e " to
Operating on a,!budget of $841.85
in 11956, the eommnission had a
bank (balance of '.N.36 left as of
January 15, 1957.
Ask $200 Advance
"It is felt," said Mr. Anderson,
"that this isnot -.sufficient in the
event an importantindustrial lead
should arise warranting the send-
ing ofa delegation." On behalf
of the commission, he requested an
advance of $200 on Council's 1957
grant to the com'missi'on.
The request was referred ,to
Council's finance committee with
power to act. The annual report
was filed with little comment.
Following are excerpts from the
report:
"The most 'beneficial promotion-
al program in flour efforts was the
"See 'Cbderieh Day" sponsored
jointly with the :godeaieh Junior
C eager 'Commerce. Threugli
tl is promotion, we were able to

Mics, censor unities and possibil-
ities of theTorn of 'Goderich.
They day ineltided a complete tour
of the town, an evening banquet
at which tinte Leon :lack extolled
the iutiustrial benefits of the town
and 'offered the opportunity for
'members of the commission and
intdrested citizens to , promote the
industrialization . desires of the
community.
}4We believe ,the visiting person-
ne were impressed with the town
a + its citizens. We are hepeful
the future will indicate beneficial
reeults' from the promotion: •
Send Delegations
"On two occasions, we sent 'dele-
gates to Tomato, enabling us to
keep our contacts with the Depart-
ment of Planning and Develop-
ment, the conmiiseioners of the
railroads and banks, and to keep
foreign trade consulates active and
informed.
"Weekly distribution of our pro-
motionel blotter project was main-
tained to some 30 contacts." •
The report also emphasized the
-importance of citizens giving a
geed impression of this town to
visitors. "A good public relations
_
effort by all the citizeis will assist
`us ; in our promotional opportun-
ities," the report concluded.
r `iSee Goderich Day" expenses
were $271.33, but .the commission
received $75.50 from Goderich
Jinior Chamber of Commerce to
cut down the total, the report re-
vealed. Expenses of delegations
in '1956 were $345.12.
County Forests Are "Weed Menace'"

Foxes and 'weeds, tjwo problems
which have been annoying district
farmers, receive] the attention of

The bounty on adult foxes was
increased from ene dollar to two

to bear by two townships and other
interested organizations.
Ass to the weed's, the Ontario
forestry (branch will be asked to

--in-meaty 'forest plantations. •Com-
plaints about weeds Ili tree planta-
. bong were brought ,before Council

fox bounty payments. Last year
the county paid out $743 at the
rate of one dollar per fox.
Requests for an increase in the
bounty came from Colborne Town -
Stanley Township, Seaforth
Women's .institute, the Ontario
Farmers' Union and township units
of the Federation of .Agriculture)
Most of the requests cited ,poil-
try losses as the main reason for
a higher bounty, butt one request
suggested that foxes are a 'danger
because hhey spread rabies.

Reeve Taylor said that, on one
county tree plantation near Au-
burn, the ground is so thiok with
leafy spurge that the plantation
is a weed menace to all the farrns
in the neighborhood. "You couldn't
get another stalk of leafy spurge
to grow there," said Reeve Taylor.
"You couldn't find room to plant
a stalk of it. Whoever has juris-
diction should go after it."
Reeve Blake said it is almost
impossible. to make a private land-
owner clean lap the MAIotis Weeds
an his peeperty,, _When, the—Ind-.
owner can point to a county' pro-
perty as a far worse example .of
weeds uncontrolled.
"They come back at us and say:
`Look at your own county pro-
perty'," said Reeve Blake. "It puts
your municipality in an awful bad
spot."
William Dougall, Hensall, weed
inspector, appeared before Coun-
cil, and explained that effort& have
been made to spray weeds in 'coun-
ty tree plantations, but that the
spray has killed more trees than
weeds. "Perhaps we could out
with scythes, but where will you
find the men to hire, for scythe
work, these days?" said Mr.
Dougall.
Henrk de Vries, zone forester for
Perth and Huron, told councillors
an effort will be made to find
some way of controlling weeds in
the tree plantations.
Gordon Ratz, deputy -reeve of
Stephen, suggested that headlands
and fence -lines, at least, ' might
have their weeds cut, to check the
spread of weeds to neighboring
farms.

COUNTY FARM
SHOWS PROFIT
COUNCIL ' TOLD.
A county rtax-rate of �.2 mills, the
sae as iast year, was larodiated
When Huron County Council met
.sere last week. In presenting the
first draft of the 1957 ccrunty estim-
ates, A . Erskine, county clerk:-
treasurer,
legytreasurer, outlined an increase in
the rate for county roads with a
corresponding decrease in other.
'departments.
Aside frons roads and bridges
the heaviest 'burden on the c4untty
treasury this year, theestimates
predict, will be payanen'of hospital
bills (for indigent patients. The
suzn of ,i 5,000 , is eanmarked in
the estimates !for this purpose.
The estimates :have bee reorgan
ied this year, county "&-,
equ Tors
were told, to show "court house
maintenance" as a separate item.
Accounts previously kept under
the headings of printing, postage,
lighting, heating, telephone and
property repairs have been group-
ed so that the cast of upkeep m
the court house 'can be calculated.
This revision in the county book-
keeping has been made in the hope
that the provincial government will
this year begin to make some con=
tribution to the cost of keeping up
offices of provincial departments,
in the court house.
Hope -For-Action
"We are rather hopeful that
something will be done at the
coming session," said Mr. Erskine,
in reply to a question from Nelson
Trewartha, deputy -reeve of Clinton.
As president of the -Ontario Clerks'
and Treasurers' Association, Mr.
Erskine has been negotiating with
the Ontario government in ari ef-
fort to get some ,provincial aid
toward the maintenance costs in
the county buildings.
A profit of $2,713.17 leas shown
in 1956 on the operation of the
county farm at the Huron County
Home, near Clinton, it was report-
ed to Huron County Council by
Harvey Johnston, superintendent
of the HCH, and Harvey Erskine,
secretary of the HCH board.
