Zurich Citizens News, 1961-07-13, Page 6PAGE SIX Changes In Land Expropriation Law Asked For By Federation Brief (By J. Carl Hemingway) Zone 2 of the Federation of Agriculture comprising Bruce, Grey, Huron, Perth, Welling- ton and Waterloo was asked to present a biref on Land Ex- propriation to the Select Com- mittee of the Ontario Govern- ment on Monday, June 26 at Kitchener. To co-ordinate their ideas a meeting was held in Harriston on June 20. Here are some of the recommendations with some dominent. ' That there be a trial of "pub- lic necessity" before a project be allowed. (One county repor- ted that the only reason given for rebuilding a curve on a highway was to the effect that the provincial government had made this amount of money a- vailable to this county and if they didn't spend it some other county would get it. Whether there was need or not had little bearing on the question). A complaint that was com- mon to all counties was the fact that the compensation to the owner resulted in the buy- er trying to buy as cheaply as possible and the owner trying to get as much as possible with little regard for a fair settle- ment for all. Municipalities in many cases are very careless in recording changes in deeds at the registry office. (An example was given where the municipality had paid for the same strip of land three times and was in the process of negotiating for it a fourth time, all because the previous purchase had not been properly registered-) Another unanimous camplaint was the fact that some of these acquiring agencies simply start work and bargain after- wards. (The most recent exam- ple: a Hydro gang arrived at the farm and informed the owner that the line was to be moved from the road to his fields and proceeded to set stakes and cut trees for this purpose. Unless you get the shotgun or the police, the job will be done and you can wait for settlement at the leisure of the acquiring party.) These are a few of the most glaring problems that face an everincreasing number of far- mers and it is hoped that they can be solved. At the present time a farm writer could hardly avoid the temptation to comment on the recent "Budget". The drop in the value of the Canadian dollar seems to be of particular interest. It should have a definite bearing in in- creasing the cost of imports and in most cases it will mean a STOP and READ Consider this special for your drive or walk—no more need to roll around on large crushed stone or gravel—when you walk around on your drive etc. Just call Zurich 90 r 5, for your supply of crushed pea stone.

She said the service was won- derful, and when the boat dock- ed at Rotterdam, the steward in- formed her that she had visitors in her cabin. Her relatives who had been given permission to conte aboard were there to greet her. She added it was a wonderful reunion. Mrs. Roobol said that meat is very costly over there. People dress well, as they put clothes before meat. She attended church service in her home town of Oud-Beyerland, Holl- and, and it was a great pleasure for her to be able to go to the church she attended and see the many people she knew. It is 14 years since Mrs. Roo - bol left Holland to come to Canada, and this is her first vis- it home. She wishes to be remembered to all her friends in the village and community. corresponding increase in the domestic price. It should also make our pro- ducts of the farm easier to sell abroad. This, too, should bring about an increase in price at home, But will it? Is private enter- prise going to export enough product to increase domestic price substantially? This would be, an opportune time for Co -Operatives to get into the processing field in or- der to take advantage of the favourable trading position. At time of writing there has been no increase in the cattle prices yet the stick market re- acted immediately. It would seem to mean that present sell- ing agencies of beef are not interested in increasing the price to the producer through export channels. Description of Poison Ivy Given So People Can Avoid Dangerous Weed Poison ivy is reported i n some texts to occur in wood- lands, f e n c e rows, road -sides, beaches, and rocky waste places. It is also found in school play- grounds, golf courses, parks and perennial borders of sub- urban homes. The leaves are composed of three leaflets, shiny, drooping, and somewhat toothed, though the degree of indentation varies widely. Leaflets are reddish col- oured in spring, rich green in summer, and take on vivid aut- umn colours in fall. Berries are dull white, turning to yellowish brown as they ripen, The plant may be a true cree- per, as the name "ivy" would suggest, supporting itself on a trees, fences or buildings; or it may grow upright as a shrub, from six inches to three feet high. Regardless of growth hab- its or location, all poison ivy contains a toxic substance ca- pable of producing severe skin irritation o n contact. Contact need not be directly with the pl- ant. Handling contaminated cl- othing, shoes, golf clubs, garden tools, or pets is usually suffic- ient to cause infection. Occas- ionally the poison can be remov- ed by thoroughly cleansing with strong soap before symptons be- come apparent. Symptons inc- lude inflamation, blistering, it- ching and sometimes severe ill- ness. Treatment is best left to a physician if further complic- ations are to be avoided. Eradication is best accomp- lished by treatment with herb- icides, since this method avoids the necessity o f dangerously close contact with the plant. Amino triazole, brushkiller, Sil- vex or Aminate are effective materials on poison ivy. Rep- eated treatments are sometimes necessary. More complete details of id- entification, treatment and con- trol are contained in Ontario Department of Agriculture pub- lication 243, available from the Information Branch, Ontario Department of Agriculture, Pa- rliament Buildings, Toronto. 0 Hensall Group Honor Cub Leader (By our Hensall correspondent) A father and son gathering honored a retiring Cubmaster and assistant Cubmaster in the village of Hensall.
