The one thing that will add to their value more than anything else is a good Cattle Oiler and Scratcher. Cattle by nature need their hide and hair curried every day ,., being itchy is a natural thing. A good oiler, besides providing the best thing to scratch on, also delivers oil and chemicals to all y„” parts of the animal's body and thus they rid themselves of flied, grubs, lice, etc. ...

County Rate up One Mill This Year Huron County's mill rate will be 14 mills in 1961, up one-tenth of a mill over the rate for 1960, The tax levy, approved by the countya,council Friday, will pro- vide seven mills for general pur- poses and seven mills for high- way purposes. Last year, the gen- eral rate was 6 9/10 mills, and the highway levy seven mills. In presenting the tax rate, a- long with the 1961 budget, Frank Walkom, reeve of Goderich and chairman of the finance commit- tee, said council "had no alterna- tive but to raise the rate." Two extra nurses, to be hired this year, account for part of the need for more funds, 'although, as Reeve Walkom said "It is diffi- cult to pin down the reason for an increase to any' one point," The extra tenth of a mill will add $6,000 to the county funds. The 14 mills will raise about $859,510 on the county's present assessment. The estimated revenue in 1961 for the county, according to the new budget, will be $1,534,224. The greatest part of this amount will be raised by the county rates, with government grants amount- ing to an estimated $632,664 bring- ing in the second largest amount. A $10,000 surplus from 1960 is in- cluded in the revenue total. The estimated expenditure for 1961 will be $1,511,900, leaving a surplus of $22,324. The clerk - treasurer, John Berry; said the surplus figure is subject to varia- tions. In the past two years, the general account has operated with a surplus, although the highways account has had a defi- cit. The largest slice of the reven- ue will be spent on public works, For highway and bridge work, maintenance and construction in 1961, the council has budgeted $1,022,000. Though it is a full pro- gram, the overall total for public works is down considerably be- cause less money is being spent on the county's development The next largest amount, $105,- 000, will be used for public wel- fare, which includes child wel- fare, hospitalization, and the County Home, Other expenditures for 1961, as estimated in the budget, are $85,000 for general government; $76,700 for protection to persons and property; $79,300 for debt charges; $50,000 for a reserve fund; $46,000 for the health unit; $12,000 for the library; $7,100 in agricultural grants; $7,000 for the museum; $4,100 in patriotic gran- ts; $4,000 for the discount on county rates; $4,900 for education grants; $3,800 for the registry of- fice; and $3,600 for reforestation. The increasing costs of child welfare, and the larger County Home operation were the chief reasons, according to Mr. Berry, for the rising costs of public wel- fare. The provincial Government has paid $505,000 in grants towards the County Home project. Mr. Berry said, and more funds are expected, Mr. Berry, commenting on pha- ses of the new budget, Said the county is "well within the finan- cial allotment" for work at the County Homo, FARMERS UNION MEETING At a Huron Co. Farmers' Un- ion meeting in Clinton on Mon, 24th, members expressed concern that many local implement em ezt busi- nesses are losing their dealer- ships. Since this trend is expected to continue it will become in- creasingly difficult for farmers to obtain machinery parts and service when needed, This, in a busy season will cost farmers a great deal in time, money and in- convenience. Ontario Farmers' Union Prov, Pres„ Mel Tebbutt attending the meeting said that implement manufacturers are continually changing models and design thus making it impossible for local dealers to keep an up-to-date stock; and increasing the cost of new machinery. A recommendation is to be for warded` from this meeting to the National Farmers' Union asking that they, in their brief to the Farm Implement Investigation Committee ask for some provision to be, made so that implement parts and service be available to farmers at all times. With regard to a recent meet- ing with the Ministers of Educe: tion concerning a Vocational -type school, Mrs. T. Govenlock said that a Dept. Plead has requested a meeting with the 5 District High School Boards in the near future. Final arrangements were made for the annual variety concert in Clinton on Apr, 5. Members are asked to bring candy for the can dy booth on this night, Mrs, Geo. Clifton introduced the guest speaker, Mr. Mel Teb• butt, Provincial President of Ont. ario Farmers' Union. Mr. Tebbutt expressed concern that many farmers are being fore, ed off the land, "Fifteen per cent of our farm ers are so efficient that they pro, duce 80% of our food, What will happen if another 5% can be in- duced to produce on the same scale?" The average age of the Cana, dian farmer is 54 yrs. and since industry is reluctant to hire older men, Mr. Tebbutt felt that any increase in the flow of farmers from the land could only mean more unemployment. The speaker continued "Decline in farm prices, rise in costs, and lack of purchasing power expel, ienced by farmers have contribut ed largely to unemployment, When the country's basic indus- try is not prosperous, it reflects on the economy as a whole MMr. Tebbutt criticized Agricul• ural' Minister Hamiltoafa Rural Development and Rehabilitation i The addresses on lash letter and parcel should show • the full name of the person who is Se get It.

Act, saying it brings no relief to present day farmers, "Legislation is available for parity prices but governments don't want to use it," he said. Mj•. Tebbutt felt that our Gov eminent is being more success, fully pressured by, other groups than farmers, He tinged farmers to keep their local members of Parliament abreast of their prob. lams.

County Rate up One Mill This Year Huron County's mill rate will be 14 mills in 1961, up one-tenth of a mill over the rate for 1960, The tax levy, approved by the countya,council Friday, will pro- vide seven mills for general pur- poses and seven mills for high- way purposes. Last year, the gen- eral rate was 6 9/10 mills, and the highway levy seven mills. In presenting the tax rate, a- long with the 1961 budget, Frank Walkom, reeve of Goderich and chairman of the finance commit- tee, said council "had no alterna- tive but to raise the rate." Two extra nurses, to be hired this year, account for part of the need for more funds, 'although, as Reeve Walkom said "It is diffi- cult to pin down the reason for an increase to any' one point," The extra tenth of a mill will add $6,000 to the county funds. The 14 mills will raise about $859,510 on the county's present assessment. The estimated revenue in 1961 for the county, according to the new budget, will be $1,534,224. The greatest part of this amount will be raised by the county rates, with government grants amount- ing to an estimated $632,664 bring- ing in the second largest amount. A $10,000 surplus from 1960 is in- cluded in the revenue total. The estimated expenditure for 1961 will be $1,511,900, leaving a surplus of $22,324. The clerk - treasurer, John Berry; said the surplus figure is subject to varia- tions. In the past two years, the general account has operated with a surplus, although the highways account has had a defi- cit. The largest slice of the reven- ue will be spent on public works, For highway and bridge work, maintenance and construction in 1961, the council has budgeted $1,022,000. Though it is a full pro- gram, the overall total for public works is down considerably be- cause less money is being spent on the county's development The next largest amount, $105,- 000, will be used for public wel- fare, which includes child wel- fare, hospitalization, and the County Home, Other expenditures for 1961, as estimated in the budget, are $85,000 for general government; $76,700 for protection to persons and property; $79,300 for debt charges; $50,000 for a reserve fund; $46,000 for the health unit; $12,000 for the library; $7,100 in agricultural grants; $7,000 for the museum; $4,100 in patriotic gran- ts; $4,000 for the discount on county rates; $4,900 for education grants; $3,800 for the registry of- fice; and $3,600 for reforestation. The increasing costs of child welfare, and the larger County Home operation were the chief reasons, according to Mr. Berry, for the rising costs of public wel- fare. The provincial Government has paid $505,000 in grants towards the County Home project. Mr. Berry said, and more funds are expected, Mr. Berry, commenting on pha- ses of the new budget, Said the county is "well within the finan- cial allotment" for work at the County Homo, FARMERS UNION MEETING At a Huron Co. Farmers' Un- ion meeting in Clinton on Mon, 24th, members expressed concern that many local implement em ezt busi- nesses are losing their dealer- ships. Since this trend is expected to continue it will become in- creasingly difficult for farmers to obtain machinery parts and service when needed, This, in a busy season will cost farmers a great deal in time, money and in- convenience. Ontario Farmers' Union Prov, Pres„ Mel Tebbutt attending the meeting said that implement manufacturers are continually changing models and design thus making it impossible for local dealers to keep an up-to-date stock; and increasing the cost of new machinery. A recommendation is to be for warded` from this meeting to the National Farmers' Union asking that they, in their brief to the Farm Implement Investigation Committee ask for some provision to be, made so that implement parts and service be available to farmers at all times. With regard to a recent meet- ing with the Ministers of Educe: tion concerning a Vocational -type school, Mrs. T. Govenlock said that a Dept. Plead has requested a meeting with the 5 District High School Boards in the near future. Final arrangements were made for the annual variety concert in Clinton on Apr, 5. Members are asked to bring candy for the can dy booth on this night, Mrs, Geo. Clifton introduced the guest speaker, Mr. Mel Teb• butt, Provincial President of Ont. ario Farmers' Union. Mr. Tebbutt expressed concern that many farmers are being fore, ed off the land, "Fifteen per cent of our farm ers are so efficient that they pro, duce 80% of our food, What will happen if another 5% can be in- duced to produce on the same scale?" The average age of the Cana, dian farmer is 54 yrs. and since industry is reluctant to hire older men, Mr. Tebbutt felt that any increase in the flow of farmers from the land could only mean more unemployment. The speaker continued "Decline in farm prices, rise in costs, and lack of purchasing power expel, ienced by farmers have contribut ed largely to unemployment, When the country's basic indus- try is not prosperous, it reflects on the economy as a whole MMr. Tebbutt criticized Agricul• ural' Minister Hamiltoafa Rural Development and Rehabilitation i The addresses on lash letter and parcel should show • the full name of the person who is Se get It.
