Mousseau-'s Barn Razed By Flames Damage: $2,000 Fare of undetermined origin Sat- urday destroyed a two-story frame poultry building at the rear of the home of Elzar Mousseau, Kip - pen, killing 450 pullets. Loss was estimated at $2,000. Mr. Mousseau had left his home a short time before the fire was discovered by Miss Mabelle White- man who lives in the area. When she was unable to contact Mr. Mousseau by telephone at his home, she phoned a village store and located Mr. Mousseau there. Brucefield firemen responded and then called Hensall firemen for help. Neither department was able to get pumpers to the scene owing to about 300 yards of snow - blocked farm laneway but laid hose to the building. Save 3,000 Birds Firemen, aided by Mr. Mous- seau's son-in-law Kenneth Mc- Lennan and others, concentrated their efforts on saving a second poultry building only six feet away from the blazing structure, and which contained 3,000 birds. A third building contained 450 birds. The pullets destroyed were be- tween nine and 10 weeks old and were to be shipped to district farmers Monday. The two-story building razed by fire measured 22 by 24 feet, Mr. Mousseau was unable to give any indication of the cause of the blaze and said all heat was provided through electricity. Huron PCs Once More Name L, Elston Cardiff (continued from page one) "The principles of the party are the same as in the days of John A. McDonald," he went on, "Canada first; the Crown; the Commonwealth; the Constitution; and Competition. Of the latter the Liberals only believed in it when it suited them. The PCs have nointention of being on the defensive. We're still fighting the same state of mind that existed in the spring. They're the same old gang they just want their jobs back. "They are willing to set prov- ince against province, race against race, religion against religion in order to get back into office. Have no illusions that these are new people," he said. They are the same henchmen listening to the same orders." "John Diefenbaker has a vision of linking the Canadian North, as John A. McDonald had, from East to West. And he hopes to insure Canada's ownership of the natural resources of our own north. If you people will get some of John's vision, it will give him a chance to see it through." Mr. Hamilton was thanked by George Ginn. Ohairman of the meeting was Charles McNaughton, Exeter, chairman of the Huron As- sociation. Among those on the platform were Mayor W. J. Miller, who welcomed the convention to Clinton; Douglas Freeman, Harry Sturdy, Dr. E. A. McMaster, Mrs. F. G. Thompson. Mr. Cardiff was nominated by R. E. Pooley, mayor of Exeter, and it was seconded by Mrs. Douglas Mooney, Goderioh. A motion affirming loyalty to the Queen and Country was en dorsed, and two minutes of silence was held in memory of the late Tom Pryde. FARM UNMOI\ Meeting PARISH HALL, ST.

' Many quilts have been made and sold to raise money for the Ladies' Aid. The work is done in the basement of the church. (Staff Photo) To Be Topic of Farm Forums Who is the "low income farm- er?" Has he special problems and if he has what programs can be designed to help him? These questions and others will be ans- wered by a three-man panel chaired by Bob Carbert, farm broadcaster from Wingham, on March 3. National Farm Radio Forum panel members are Dr. David MacFarlane, Macdonald College, Quebec; Howard Conquergood, Canadian Labor Congress, Otta- wa; and George McCague, vice- president, United Co-operatives of Ontario, Many people say support prices, import controls, marketing impro- vements, etc., are not going to help the low income farmer, that really his problem is special and needs a particular type of help. Is this true? For instance, do you think that the present direction of extension work should be changed? Is it possible that our present exten- sion programs are directed too much toward helping the better and more successful farmer be- come even more successful? Con- sider the policies of some provin- ces which give help to men who couldn't afford to buy a purebred sire on their ow'n. Once the sire has been purchased for them is any advice or assistance given on how to feed that animal or how to use his progeny to establish a bbtter grade of livestock on the farm? • ood Business .. . to tell Customers About Yo r Business A recent survey by Dun and Bradstreet shows that 95 % of all failures in business are from the ranks of non -advertisers.
