The Wingham Advance -Times, December 14, 1977, .9 Snow blowing, drains discussedat Turnberry township meeting The purpose of the Nov. 24 Township of Turnberry meeting was to discuss the Junctionville Snow Blowing Agreement with the residents of Junctionville and to talk about the Bryce Dram Re- port with some off the pr rty owners involved. As the residents of Junction- ville do not wish to sign any agreement for snow blowing, for this year they will be treated the same as any other road in the Township and look after blowing out' their own driveways. The township plough will be used to clean Victoria St. in Junctionville with a place left to turn the plough at the north end of the street. Regarding the Bryce Drain Re- port, it was decided that Council provisionally adopt the amended report on the Bryce Municipal Drain Improvement and Exten- sion, dated October 17, 1977, as presented by Gamsby & Man- nerow and that the provisional by-law be given first and second reading. Rwas also decided that by-law number 27, Bryce Municipal Drain Extension and Improve- ment be provisionally adopted as read a first and second time Nov. 24, 1977. In 1976, Ontario Hydro was bill- ed ,according to the assessment but later an amended assessment came through and they were bill- ed a second time without the first bill being cancelled. Also, the same property was showing as having arrears because the taxes were printed in the tax roll and 'should not have been as a grant had been paid by Ontario Hydro lieu of taxes. It was agreed that the Town- ship will refund hydro $207 ' • or overpayment of grant in taxes and the $451.19 pl penalties at the county will be writtenoff. The Ministry of Transport and Communications (M.T.C.) will be asked to bear 50 per cent of the cost of cleaning out the Under- wood Elliot drain in connection with the development road to an upper limit of $2,000.00. A letter from Gamsby &, Mannerow, engineering consultants, sug- gested that Council request M.T.C. to include 50 per cent of the limit of $2,000 of the cost of re- .; pair in the Development Road Contract. Gamsby & Mannerow will pre- pare all future drain by-law and pro -rate costs. The Clerk's pay- ment will . be reduced by $50.00 per drain. A letter from Mr. Woolcock wag read by Council, requesting additional compensation for damages. It was decided to notify Mr. Woolcock that Turnberry Council considers the • Fortune rain issue a closed case in re- gard to 'damages, assessments, etc. Ross Nicholson, drainage com- missioner will investigate the drain at Kieffer's. It was moved that the Clerk be uthorized to pay Assessment ap- eals under section 636A to the roperty owners when the taxes re paid in full. Otherwise a redit will be applied to the tax a. count thereby reducing any al - cars due. Appeals are due 'to the 'follow - ng: J. W. McBurney; $31.04; J. . Cragg, $244.07; H.

Marklevitz's has had 2,00000, of gravel put in and it deetsgt seem to bring the level of the road up enough. Don Eadie said he feels 3,000 yds. more would be requir l to build the road up to a good;-' grade, Ben Malda, Doug Fortune., and Brian McBurney will vie the site and discuss the additiofir. of ' more gravel with Mr. Mark levitz.

The meeting was adjourned at 12:05 a.m. Sprouted seeds good nutrition MI Sprouted seeds are a tasty and nutritious addition to any meal. Sprouting increases the content of vitamins A, B, C and E four to 10 times. Almost any whole seed will sprout. Alfalfa seeds are the easiest to sprout but other seeds that will sprout are lentil, mung bean, soy bean, sunflower, pea, garbanzo and many grain seeds. Seeds may be sprouted in a jar, a pan or 'a strainer. Before sprouting, soak seeds overnight in plenty of water. Rinse- the seeds well using a screen or loosely woven cloth over the mouth of the jar to drain. Lay the jar on its side in a warm place. Rinse ' at least twice a day until the sprouts' are ready to eat. Some books recommend keeping the jar or,pan ina dark place for the first two days, but this is not necessary. If t1 e - seeds are visible, you will' not forget to rinse. them. Alfalfa sprouts will be ready to eat in four or five days. They can be left until there are little green leaves or eaten sooner. To sprout seeds in a pan or strainer, start them in a jar. On the second day, spread the seeds evenly, over the bottom of a glass pan or a strainer. Sprinkle with water and ` cover with cheese cloth. In about five .days the sprouts will look like a green car- pet. When buying seeds to 'sprout, care should be taken 'that ,the seeds have not been treated with a poisonous substance.
