START DEFENSE IN FLOOD CASE An Ontario 'Municipal Board hearing of a $376,000 claim for flood damages entered its sec- ond week at Goderich this week with the start of cross-examina- tion by counsel for bhe defence.. Dr. L. G. Hagmeier, formerly of Thedford, and now living in Virginia, is suing the townships of (McGillivray, Bosanquet, Ste- phen, Hay, East and West Wil- liams and the town of Parkhill for flood damages to his proper- ty in the Ausa'ble !River area tfroan 1945.5.4. It is expected that the hearing will take all this week and most of next. Gordon Ford QC, of Toronto, counsel for the plaintiff, con- tinued his examination and turn- ed to flood damage in 1954. Dr. Hagmeier said that over 5,000 acres were flooded in Feb- ruary 1954, and it required four men and two tractors to clear away the debris. In April of the same year a "modest flood" in- undated 2,:5.00 acres, in McGilli- vray (Township and 1:50 acres in (Bosanquet Township. Dr. Hag- meier lists the amount of acre- age, sustaining loss. (Continuing, Dr. Hagmeier de- scribed the third flood in Octo- ber, 19154, when over 5,000 ac- res were flooded :and the 'fosses resulting in (Stephen twp,, Mc- Gillivray, the Ausable area and in !Bosanquet Township. The doctor said the only re- pair during the period from 1935 to ,1:954 was :the removal of an island by McGillivray Town- ship from ,the river. He remarked that ,the only suggested isnprovemen'ts from townships officials was a letter from IMr. Puller,' former clerk of Bosanquet tiwp., dated Feb. 12, 19612, suggesting a ,cut in the Alusable River, ,but to the doct- or's knowledge, this was never carried out. E. S. Livermore, QC, counsel for McGillivray Township, start- ed cross-exaanination by asking Dr. lHagmeier crow many of the 2,300 acres he had bought in 192E were suitable for, cultiva- tion. Dr. Hagmeier a:ns)wered "450 •acres" and that the bat- anee was swamp and a lake on what was referred to as the ;Snaith farm. When •asked how enuchhe paid for'•it, plaintiff re pllied :$58,000. When IMr, Liver more suggested bhat •the price was '$80,000, 'bhe doctor said' he was depending on anemory and that he was not sure of the amount. ' Mr. Liverniore asked ,the dos - tor if 5,000 acres purchased lat- er were not nearly 'all drained in 19515 bo which the plaintiff replied :that the summer of that year was dry and they were able to draim , it. In further questioning the plaintiff admitted that he had drained a lake on his property into the Ausabie River and that he had later sold 700 'acres for $2150 per acre.' The doctor eras asked if rhe knew that tihe level of the lake he had •drained was the same level as Lake H•urom to which he answered, ":No, how would I know?" In subsequent questioning the doctor testified that he had em- ployed an engineer to make an investigation of bhe land before he bought it and that :the "engin- eer did not make a written re- port (but ,bold the doctor that he thought the Iland could be satis- factorily drained. :When asked how -much of the land was al- ready cleared when he bought it bhe :doctor answered "roughly 1,700 acres". Dr. Hageneier admitted that he made no check on levels or inquiries of the area of .the wat- ershed draining into the Ausable (Riven When TVIr. lLivermore asked if the •doctor remembered what his assessments of municipal drains were he could recall only one assessment on one (drain of $6,000. Dr. Hagmeier admitted that his land benefited from these drains and that productiv- ity had been increased as a re- sult. The hearing adjourned at 5 pan. until 9.130 a.m. Tuesday.

He longs to pull the tail feathers out of every chicken on his father's farm. He ha's no idea at all how a farmer's son should behave, but he'll find out, later, when his brothers initiate him into the local 4-H club. Here he'll learn by doing, pledged to use his head, heart, hands and health in the best possible way. 4-H Clubs Were started with one sirnple idea in mind: to have rural young people do a worthwhile piece of work at home, voluntarily, anddo it better than ever before. Plant a garden plot, perhaps, or raise a calf, make a dress, beautify a loom. The idea was so good that the young people swept their parents along with them, and farm life improved amazingly. 4-H Clubs have done many useful things. They have kept the right boys and girls on the farm, trained young men and women for leadership, improved life in rural com- munities by introducing better agricultural and home practices, and implanted the ideal of good citizenship in young minds. There are about 75,000 4-H members in Canada. Many will graduate into farm organizations in which are the progressive young farmers who -by using modern machinery and farm techniques -help to keep all Canadians well fed.
