Exeter water may hurt farmers
The increasing urbanization
of Huron County is beginning
to hurt farmers, at least in the
area around Exeter.
Dick Etherington, an Usborne
township farmer, complained
at the Huron County Federation
of Agriculture meeting in Sea -
forth that a new well to supply
water to the town of Exeter
will lower the water table on
his and adjoining farms and
cut the production of the farms.
He said the town only has
3242 people, but uses a half
million gallons of water a day,
not counting the amount of wat-
er used for industrial purposes.
In the summertime, he said the
town had pumped 1, 589, 160
gallons one day.
The town is drilling a new
well in the area of the Ethering-
ton farm, and according to Mr.
Etherington, under regulations
he and his neighbours will be
forced to get permission from
the Exeter PUC before they can
expand their own farming oper-
ations. Because the town will be
using the water unfiltered, he
said, so there is the chance that
they may crack down even
further on the farm operations
to prevent any pollution of the
town's water supply.
Mr. Etherington said he
wouldn't complain at all if the
town didn't have any alternat-
ive- But he noted that the town
only had to build a seven -mile
pipeline to hook up with the
Ontario \tater Resources Pipe-
line from Lake Huron. The
pipeline to the well proposed
will have to be five miles long.
In addition to the two extra
miles to hook up with the Lake
Huron pipeline, he said, the
town would have to build a filt-
THE OCTOR GAME
Eighty six rules that can
sa e yo :. life
There's a game being
played between you and your
doctor, and the frightening
thing about it, according to
one leading Canadian
physician, is that only your
doctor knows the rules.
Fair? "Not at all," says
Dr. W. Gifford -Jones. And
while it won't make him very
popular with the medical
profession, he's written a
book about it that tells you,
the patient, exactly how to
play.
The book is called The
Doctor Game. It's published
by McClelland and Stewart -
The Canadian Publishers. It
details rules which the
doctor says may save your
life. And compared to the
cost of unnecessary surgery,.
or a needless stay in
hospital, it could be your best
medical investment this
year.
Dr. W. Gifford -Jones (a
pseudonym) tells his reader
how to find the best doctor in
his area, how to tell a good
(or bad) doctor, how to avoid
unnecessary surgery, how to
be a good patient and how to
make the best - and avoid the
worst - of the doctor chosen.
Written in layman's
language, The Doctor Game
is full of solid, practical
advice on surgery, on talking
sex with and getting the
truth from one's doctor, on
fads and phobias, x-rays,
cancer and virtually every
Dr. W. Gifford -Jones
medical concern.
Author of an international
best-seller On Being A
Woman, Dr. Gifford -Jones is
a graduate of the University
of Toronto and Harvard
Medical School and has had
25 years experience as a
physician. He is considered
one of Canada's leading
gynecologists and is also the
author of Hysterectomy: A
Book for the Patient.

Some banks are -now issuing
personalized checks that can have
the depositor's picture imprinted
on them. One man took full
. advantage of this offer. He had a
picture of his wife in her bikini
printed on her new set of checks.'
When he handed her the
:heckbook, she was furjous. "I
'nate to have my picture taken in a
bikini," she howled. . "Do you
think I'd cash one of those awful
things?"
The husband merely walked
off, whistling softly to himself.

ration plant and this eems'to be
the main stumbling block as
the town tries to save money.
He predicted, however, that
the town will eventually have
to build the plant anyway.
In the man time, he said,
his sheep operation and the oper,
anions of his neighbours would
be hampered both, by the loss of
water in the water table and
by the restrictions on growth.
He argued that the law needs
to be changed to prevent this
sort of thirig from happening in
the future as urban demands for
water continue to grow.
