( Anne Narejko photo) By James Friel Although Southern Ontario is in the grip of yet another severe winter storm, the weather doesn't command the same interest as information on the beer lockout and supplies in the area. Beer drinkers will be saddened to know that most establishrnents in Clinton, Blyth and Bayfield have enough beer to last another week. However, the real storyis in Bayfield where Mike Lazarakos, owner of Harbor Lights Yacht Restaurant has six weeks' supply according to employee •Margaret Garrett of Bayfield. And even if the lockout lasts beyond the six weeks the cook said the business' major product is food, so there isn't any thought of closing down. At The Captain's Cove owner Don Costie said he has a three week beer reserve. "It depends on the supply in the area - some hotels have larger supplies and as they're sold more business will come my way. "As my business goes, I've got about three weeks' supply." Mr. Costie also said he wouldn't close the restaurant "because our business is basically food." . He said he would ."probably look at dropping prices on imported brands" to keep customers returning although no decisions have been made yet. With the provincial government scrambling to open alternative sources of beer for the bar owners, Mr. Costie said, "I would buy from where ever I could. We have to protect our business. "I would consider every legal means to get some more beer, depending how long this lasts." Ed Fogarty, owner of the Albion Hothl said the hotel's stock "will probably last another week. It depends how busy we are on the weekend." Lynch played vital role in (IM By Don Pullen Pat Lynch recently announced that he would be leaving his O.M.A.F. position to work as Chief Agronomist for Cyanamid. Pat is now located in Cyanamid's Shakespeare office. He is responsible for establishing a crop consulting business for Cyanamid, as well as updating their staff with the newest crop developments.

He had the ability to identify problems at an early stage and take action to resolve them. He knew where to get specific information that helped farmers with their decisions. He was in demand as a speaker and never failed to bring a concise, informative and practical message. Pat had a gift for writing. His timely and thought out articles were well read and resulted in numerous phone calls and office visitors. Pat called a "spade a spade" and farmers respected him for it.

Pat maximized his contacts by working cooperatively with agribusiness. He ad- dressed many dealer meetings. He ,.in- itiated crop clinics where agribusiness representatives and O.M.A.F. staff discuss solutions to crop. problems that they were encountering in the, field. Pat was concerned withmore than just soils and crops. He stressed economics. He challenged farm leaders to set goals and make their organizations more effective. He deleg tPd resnoncihility fn nraani7atinnal Mr. Fogarty also said the hotel would stay open but it deperl 1s on the number of people switching to liquor. He said the business may have to layoff staff. Abby Champ, manager of the Little Inn in Bayfield said a week's supply of bottled beer exists as well as what might be the last available Labatt's Blue on tap in the area. Although the Inn missed its last beer shipment sale is optimistic that the lockout won't last much Lognger. • "There's so m1ch pressure I think it will last another week,. but that's a hopeful guess," she bravely offered. Doris Chambers at the Clinton Royal Canadian Legion said she "had no idea how long th,e beer would last" though at the Blyth legion Bill Alexander said he estimated his supplies will last about four days. "We don't have a big turnover. We have a lot of older guys rend they drink liquor," said Mr. Alexander. He had the foresight to order extra suds before the lockout. "If I think we'going to need more, I just double up as I ditipast time." "We have enough on hand till Thursday, directors so that they could contribute new ideas and grow in leadership abilities. Sum- mer students learned from working with him because he delegated responsibility. Colleagues were challenged because he questioned ideas and presented new ways of looking at an issue. We'll miss him in Huron County. However, it's good to know that he'll still be involved in agriculture in this part of Southwestern Ontario. Tax deferral proposed HURON - The Ontario Federation of Agriculture (OFA) is recommending a •deferral.,,of . up, .to -$35,000- in tax payable.. against off -farm income. This IS one of thel0 recomrxtendations to Section 31 of•"tire Income Tax Act. • • "It's a great improvement," said OFA member Jim McIntosh, RR 4 Seaforth.

The proposed recommendations will be outlined . by Mr. McIntosh at the Huron Federation meeting orrMarch 7 at 8:30 p.m. at East Wawanosh PublicSchool, Belgrave. Also, hay and straw merchant Don Williams will be guest speaker at the meeting. PURINA PET CHOW SPECIALS $�45 $2255 $1.045 $2345 $1 495 $2345 $1 iso $1295 DOG CHOW a kg. DOG CHOW 24 kg.

ALL PET SUPPLIES however the hotel association ( the Ontario Hotel and Motel Association) has made arrangements to buy supplies in the States," said Vi Fraser of the Elm Haven Motor Hotel in Clinton. Mrs. Fraser said no decision has been made to take advantage of the association's arrangements. "We wouldn't have to close if we ran out of beer. We have wine and liquor. I think we have a good selection of alternative drinks." . Mrs. Fraser pointed out that the entertainment 'would continue to attract customers and .was optimistic that "quite a few beer drinkers will switch to liquor." Blyth [nn owner Pete Irwin said the draft was "virtually gone." Otherwise, "We've probably have enough to get through the next weekend, maybe." Mr. Irwin said his purchasing beer within the arrangements made by the Hotel and Motel Assoication would depend on how much he would have to buy and prices. "1 wouldn't want to get stuck with 50 or 60 cases of American beer." As far as closing if supplies can't be replaced he said, "We'll have to wait and see."
