On Tuesday evening, Sept nil,

attended a meeting In Woodstock
with Hydro representatives.
At the previous meeting toe.
landowners had recommended
that easements be for a 'limited
period, 20 wears; that e'ig'ht of
way be paid for on a basis of ac
teal land •.value, and that' due
campensetion be given for loss of
resale value of the farm.
These recommendations were
apparently tattoo to the Ontario,
Hydro 'Commission and flatly re-
fused.
Instead of snaking any offer
al011g, the reconnnended. line of
settlement Hydro representatives
told us that Hydro would now %of-
fer to purchase outright the land
needed at appraised land Values,
This they stated would give a to-
tal settlement of about 40% more
than under the easement plan.
When asked why Hydro was
willing to pay more, :Ver. Hustler
of Ontario- Hydro replied that
Hydro would gain greater control
over the property.
Thus it is clear Uiet the farmer
is not getting a better deal but
simply that he is getting a few
more dollars because he is giving
up ;that much more,

whatever paint hydro desires tor
the erection of a transiniesion
line to supply power very largely
foe' industrial purposes, then the

AS on farm land. This would be

basis ,the plan won't make snuck

At a time like this, the best
friends a mother can have are a
modern automatic electric washer
and an electric clothes dryer.
They make short work of washing
and drying—and they do it
automatically. just set the dials—
no heavy lifting, no wet wash
to carry—never a care about •
getting clothes dry for
another day of play.
With a modern automatic electric
washer and clothes dryer washing
is easy—drying is certain—
whatever the weather.
