Staples and J. H. Kinkead noted
the increased attendance at second-

ity in education is available by the
establishment of the areas, they
pointed out.
G, L. Parsons and H. Helstrop,
representing the Huron County Tu-
berculosis committee, appeared in
support of a request for a giant to
assist in a county -wide X-ray survey
for symtoms of tuberculosis. Coun-
cilors on the committee who spoke
also in support of the grant were
Reeves R. 13. Cousins of Brussels
and B. W. Tuckey. The request was
referred to the health and hospital
committee on a motion of Reeve G.
5facEwan and R. B. Cousins. This
committee later brought in a recon -
me xl:ttinn that $1,000 be granted,
and this was iefered to the warden's
co' imittee.
The excellent work being done by
the nursesin the county health
envies was commented on in the
health and hospital eoinnittee's re-
port, The nurses, who were intro-
duced by Reeve E. Nicholson, chair-
man of the committee, and each of
whom presented a report of Mier
activities, are Miss Maribelle Me-
Itenzie, supervisor; Miss Jean Fitl-
coner, Miss Margaret Roberts, and
Miss Mary Love The total cost of
the nursing system in the county,
from Jan. 1 to Oct. 31, was $6,-
790,27. of which the government
will pay $2,363.42.
Endorsation was given the com-
method is to buy the necessary land
and plant the full areato trees,
not necessarily all evergreens. This
practice has the advantages of lower
cost of planting, and more certainty
of the trees surviving.
Many section of our roads should
be so protected, and it can be
shown that the cost will be met in
savings on snow clearing alone. In
addition, there will be advantages,
as follows:—Better snovclearing
service; room for ditches and flat
slopes on road grades; road grades
can be built higher above the water
table, reducing damage from frost;
room for pole lines away from the
road, permitting unobstructed cut-
ting of roadsides: all the advantages
of reforestation and conservation on
the areas planted.
This year a considerable sunt was
expended for new equipment, but
most of our equipment is old, and,
when available, replacement for
many machines will be advisable.
It will be found advantageous to
purchase other machines that we do
not now possess.
Our -machinery operations are
carried of at a satisfactory cost.
The truck and trailer hopper earn-
ed enough, above operating costs,
to pax for themselves, ' and -more
than $1.,000 extra, Out tar distribu-
tor, which is 15 years old, continues
to save a lot of money for the coun-
ty. Over 300,000 gallons of bitu-
men were sprayed at a cost of 31
cent per gallon, .,while current con-
tract price for such work is about

chine that we have been trying to
replace struggled through the work
to be done, and the costs were bet-
ter in some instances than expected.
