The retiring persident outlined the
work for the corning year and re-
viewed the work of the past Year. He
then called on Me, Jas, Shearer to ad-
dress the meeting.
Mr, Shearer congratulated Goderich
Township on the, success it obtained
in the recent Victory Loan and the
good record the Township has always
upheld. He said the feed grain short -
ago in Huron amounted to 3 1-2 mil-
lion bushels and the fact Alberta is
marketing more hogs than Ontario
makes western rain harder to obtain,
In spite of the fact 2500 Huron Coun-
ty boys are in the armed forces the
county 'has made a substantial in-
crease in production. Mr. Shearer also
stressed farmers not to feed grain
fit for seed but to get in touch with
his office as the seed shortage is very
acute. The speaker elosed his remarks
by •outlinine. the drama A»A prinerpais
of the school nurse and the Health
policy to be put before the County
Council this week.
The meeting doted with the Nat-
ional Anthem.

that given favourable seasonal condi-

beginning to show many potential
