Messrs. E. A.•MacDonnell, Hjensall;
W. H. Coats, Usborne, and Charles
Stewart, Ashfield, were appointed
Valuators fertile county, at 55.00 per
day and $2,00 per day for expenses.
There were a number of applications.
The report is to be' completed:by
Sept. 15th.
The question question of the paving of the
Huron road, which is, part of the
Stratford-Goderich Pirgvinciar high-
way, was discussed with some
warmth, particularly on the part of;
Reeve McQuaid.of McKillop, who had
set himself .determinedly: against the
proposal, on the ground of edonorny.
The Provincial Government nowpays
eighty per cent. of the cost and some
members of the 'council, urged that
this county should not lose the oppor-
tunity of getting a paved road on,
such advantageous terms, pointing
out that the- Province may before
long reduce the percentage of cost
which it 'will pay, and also that while
Huron might deny itself a Perman-
ent pavement it was already paying a
share of the cost of such pavements
in other, parts of the Province. •
At the January session the council
passed a resolution asking the Gov-
ernment to defer thepaving' of the
Huron road. A few weeks ago a peti-
tion was circulated asking the Gov-
ernment to havethe road paved from
Clinton to Goderich this year and this
was signed by all but three or four of
the thirty-one members of the council,
In spite of this, however, the council
last week voted 16 to 14 against a
motion to rescind the resolution
adopted in January. In the mean-
time the Provincial Highways De-
partment has already -awarded a con-
tract for the paving of five and a -half
miles of the road.
The county tax bills will be a little
higher this year. The highway rate
is the same as last yehr (invo mills),
the general rate .is four mills, and.
one-fifth mill will be levied to meet
the coutny's share of Provincial high-
way expenditure. This makes a total
of six and one-fifth mills. Last year
the total rate was five and seven
tenth mills. The 'levy thisyear does
not include any provision for•the cost
of the newvaluation of the county.
The council made no appointment
to the position ef high constable.

EVAPORATOR BUSINESS. IN

'With Germany again a factor in
the dried apple market, the evaporate,
ed apple industry has had its first
good season ' sine pre-war tines,
states Charles E. Asquith, of Auburn,
'Huron County. "The war' almost put
the trade out of business, as Germany
was our most important buyer," said
Me. Asquith recently. "However, the
export market showed a big improve-
ment last winter.”
With a little advertising the home
m'abket could he greatly' broadened,
Mr. Asquith believes. The flavor''of
dried apples of the choice and stan-

fruit properly. Bits ofeore, which
the evaporator cannot remove cmm-.
-pletely, should be pierced outbefore.

This rural indstry was an impor-
tant ont throughout the apple -dis-
tricts of Ontario 20 years ago. Then.
there was a fair demand for dried
apples in the home market, while
Germany took everything including•
cares And peelings that was left over.
Most :of the plants at that time were
operated by hand. Just before the war
power factories came into use. These
reduced the cost of production and

estate hi event of death and saves has money.
',t ago `35—the age of extravagance --his
40)s" include a "premium due„' which. .
while counted as an expense, Is -really a
saving. -
At age 50' he can "spend" anything in reason.
At age 60 he has "saved" to some purpose,
, has no anxiety for the -future, and leisure
for his many interests
If you look ahead you can easily picture how useful
$30,000 would be to you. -
This amount of money can be more easily savedothan
most people imagine, in this way:
If you were to start in and save $200 each six months
and let it compound at 5%% -in 30 years you would
have $30.000, but—you know of many people who
could have set aside this amount, yet: who are still
"drudging along,'1 with no hope of relief.
Youknow yourself how hard it is to save cash.
Human nature is such that very few people allow
ready money to remain untouched for any length of
tirne. Therefore—
The Canada Life PlaIl
Provides that any sum you name will be, delivered to
you in cash at any age you desire, or to your bene-
ficiary should you die in the meantime.
By this plan an ' IMMEDIATE ESTATE is
created in event of death equal to the full face value
of your insurance policy. You anticipate years .;of 4r
gffoet,• capitalize your present : health ,and earning'"
power, and make •certain of many years of progress
now. •.C' -
The Endowment at 65
-issued by the Canada Life,makes;saving money at-
tractive, systematic and very :profitable.
You can be certain that the full amount—$2,000,
$5,000, $10,000, or more -will be paid in any case,
whether you 'live or not. Other investments may fail
-theCanada Life Endowment is a certainty. It will
take care of your home, your business,`your children's
future, or yourself, as nothing'else can.
Profits Will Hasten N�aturity '
If the profits are allowed to remain •each year, instead
Of being withdrawn and spent, a special clause -pro-
vides that the facie value of the policy will be paid ,,
'some time Well in advance of the due date.
Regular saving, an immediate estate inevent of
death, substantial profits, absolute safety—this is a
combination that you should look into today. -
