Ashfield Township cottagers
discuss chemical waste dump
A meeting of Ashfield
Township cottagers was held
recently at the home of Jeff
Walker, Horizon View Road.
Jack Lewis, president,
chaired the meeting.
First item on the agenda
was the dumping of
chemical waste. The cot-
tagers' association has had
no further word on this at the
present time. Eight hundred
acres are needed for such a
site. Ashfield Township has
clay soil and is not suitable
for such a dump. Should
Ashfield Township be pick-
ed, the association would
like to be advised.
Cottages have complained
about the roads not being
properly graded. President
Lewis stated that many cot-
tagers drive too fast for road
conditions, throwing the
gravel from the travelled
portion of the road.
A question was raised
about the lake level. It is at
an all time high. It was sug-
gested that the local
Member of Parliament be
contacted.
A suggestion was put forth
that Ashfield cottagers'
association join the Federa-
tion of Ontario Cottagers
Association.
The question of commer-
cial fishermen corning too
close to the shore was raised.
In Lambton County there is a
five mile limit. In this area,
the limit is Ez km. The
members feel this is not
enough and will complain to
the Ministry of Natural
Resources because gill nets
are a danger to swirrimers,.
boaters and surfers. It was
suggested that the Associa-
tion write Lambton County
to see how they were able to
get a five mile limit.
The interesting topic of
taxes came up too. Six hun-
dred cottagers in Ashfield
Township should inquire as
to the expenditures in their
area.

Fishing
Roy Bellinger reports
fishing is poor in the area.
The rivers require more rain
(despite the weekend) to
permit the trout to swim.
Bellinger reports a few
salmon caught at Goderich
and Rainbows at Southamp-
ton.
Social News
Just recently at the Cam-
bridge Horse Show, Dianne
Foster of Sheppardton won
the championship in the
parade class and a trophy
with her horse (Flying Doc-
tor). At the' Western Fair in
London this week in the
Golden American Saddle
Bred Show, there were five
classes. Flying Doctor was
entered in three classes and
was awarded three ribbons.
Dianne reports the Western
Fair had an excellent horse
show with 10 entries in each
of the five classes.
In 1907, Dr. Mark Bice of
Dungannnon purchased the
half lot 22x80 for a doctor's
office and drug store. the
first telephone was in Dr.
Bice's office and the village
children liked to stand
around and wait for it to ring
in order to hear him talk into
it.
In or beside Bickle's Store
in Dungannon was George
Agar's Churn Manufactur-
ing Shop. These dog churns,
as they were called, were us-
ed by a number of farmers'
wives in the district. They
were driven by dog power,
the dog going round and
round to make the churn
turn in order to make butter.
It is said that one had to
catch the dog and tie him up
early, before he suspected a
day of churning. If the dog
got wise and beat it, the
children of the house had to
take turns. This was a job
they did not care for.
