FARMTRUCKSWILI,
BE RATIONED BY
• GASOLINE ORDER
Non -Owners Given Extra
Allowance For Car If '
Need is Proven.
•
EFFECTIVE APRIL 1st
Gasoline for farm trucks will be ra-
tioned, but a. farmer who does not
own a truck will be given an extra
allowance for his passenger car ac -
hording to his proved individual needs,
the Munitions and Supply Department
has announced,.
Under a new rationing system,'
which becomes effective on April ist,
every rron-commercial vehicle will be
granted a' basic Category "AA" ration
book containing 40 coupons, which
Will permit each such- vehicle, on the
basis of 18 miles •to the gallon, and
at the present unit value,. a basic
2,160. miles of driving between April
1943,. and March 31, 944.
Those who are eligible, and can
prove their need of a preferred cate-
gory, will be allotted a fixed number
of extra coupons for their vocational
needs during.* the year ending Meech
31, 1944.. These extra coupons will
come in books labelled "Special,"
which will contain a maximum of 60
coupon e eeeja. Only one such "Spe-
cial" book', or portion of a book, will
be issued at a time, and hence the
case history of each preferred cate-
gory owner will be under constant re-
view by the Regional Oil Control Of-
fice where the extra allowance was
obtained.,
"The'1942-43 category an owner now
holds, and the mileage he has driven
during the present rationing year, will
have no bearing -on the allotraent he
will get for the new rationing year,"
Itaid Oil Controller G. R. Cottrell°.
"Instead, the neW, ,allowance will be
based on the individual needs. of each
ovener in relation' to the gravity of the
oil shortage with 'which Canada is
likely to be faced during the coming
year."
-The Ctirithelfee'efripliasized, in 'this
sonneetion, that the use of the pre-
ferred category symbols, "A,'' "B,"
"C," "D" and "E" Is only for the
guidance of the Regional Oil Control
managers and the enforcement offi-
cere. "Two cars in the same cate-
gory will not necessarily receive the
same allowance," he said. "For ex-
ample, one holder' of an 'A' may be
permitted only 1,000 miles of vocation-
al driving, while another in the same
category may be allowed 3,000."
In thepreferred categories, as , un-
der the old system, will come such
automobile owners as police, fanners
without trucks, • rural undertakers,
certain doctors, and some others
whose needs are essential in' a coun-
try at war. •
The new system, unlike that of last
year, will call for strict rationing of
•commercial vehicles, including
farm trucks, within two classes. The
first, "Transit," will cover aanbulances,
busea, taxis, and drive -yourself cars.
The second, "Services," will be -sub-
divided into four categories: "Gener-
al Commercial," "Liretited Commer-
cial," ,"Commercial Motorcycle" and
"Other Commercial."
Under this rationing of commercial
vehicles, the Owner will have his al-
lowance pared down to bare, es•sen-
tial needs,,and thus will find it neces-
-.eery to eliminate unnecessary trips,
drive slowly, and in every other way
conserve gasoline.
Farm trucks will be classed as
"Limited Commercial," and will be al -
loved no more, and perhaps less, than
U4 to -374 units per year, according
ho the weight of the vehicle when
einpty'and the proved requirements of
• the owner.
The new plan will make it unnec-
(misery for the preferred category 'ap-
plicant to decide What category he
;nay expeet to receive; instead he will
011 out either a "Commercial" er a.
"Special" form, and will be granted
whatever allowance may be justified.
It will abolish the 'classification of
passenger cars according to weight,
and thus will end the provision under

ALEX *EWING
IS PRESIDENT
Policyholders of the McKillop Mut-
ual Fire Insurance Company met in
the Town Hall here on Friday and
beard encouraging reports of the
year's business. President Alex. Mc -
Ewing presided.
Manager M. A. Reid•told the meet-
ing that although the fire hisses which
totalled $14,612.19, had been greater
than any during the past ten years,
the Company had, in the face of that
fact, been able to increase the sur-
plus by nearly three thousand dollars.
Fire losses in 1942 amounted to $14,-
612.19.
The company had 2,546 policies in
force as Of December 31, 1942, repre-
senting insurance to the value of
$8,955,120. The total assets were in-
creased during the year by $2,960.24.
In his report, Mr. Reid said in part:
"In presenting my tenth and your
66th annual report, I have pleasure in
reporting continued financial progress,
•
but regret to advise that your losses
are greater than any during the past
10 years. This is regrettable in view
of the hope of the farm mutuals of
Ontario that losses in 1942 would be
reduced by at least 25 per cent.
"Part of the, inerease can be at-
tributed to increased value of live-
stock, etc., but the major increase is
the result of three barn fires and, one
small dwelling. These losses cost
your company several thousand dol-
lars but to the individual the loss sus-
tained is much more serious. 'Valu-
able buildings, produce, implements
and livestock have been lost; today
these can, only with difficulty, be re-
placed. - •
hUnfonteinatety, no cause,could be.
found for any of these fires, and they
must of necessity be listed as 'un-
known.'
"The total number of losses. also
shows an increase and numbered 59-
36 were from lightning; 14 from ov-
erheated stoves, pipes or chimneys;
5 unknown; one each of defective
wiring, electric iron, smoking and
from burning building. d
"How many of these -could have
been avoided? How many could very
easily have become major losses to
both life and property?
"I would ask every policyholder to
Make an inspection of his or her pro-
perty for fire hazards and if there are
any, have them remedied. This year
it is necessary to frequently check
chimneys and pipes. Many ,are being.
forced to use soft coals and this na-
turally creates greater fire hazards.
Shortage of help may also cause neg,
lect. Have your lanterns and other
farm equipment clean;, .your electric
wiring checked, and, above all, be
careful in use of gasoline or kerosene.
Remember, a little extra precaution
may save a serious financial losS and
'return handsome dividends.
Blyth, was excellent, and it is ex- "Your surplus has been increased
pected to have many more such in- I by $2,960.24, making your net suhplus
teresting programs. $98,670.57. This is an increase of ap-
proximately $94,000.00 in ten years,
•
which has placed your company in a
strong financial position permitting
your Directors to have -your company
invest liberally in each War and Vis -
tory Loan in our country's defence."
Mr. Reid, also gave an interesting
and informative address on the forth-
coming Victory Loan. .
The retiring directors, Messrs,
Thomas Moylan, Hugh Alexander and
C. Leonhardt were all re-elected, and
the officers and directors of the com-
pany for the present year are as fol-
lows:
President; Alex McEwing, Blyth;

Sales of War Savings 'Certificates
for the month of December in Huron
County amounted to $13,124.00, which
is a reduction from 'the amount in No-
vember when the sales amounted to
$14,544.00, Total sales for the year
1942 amounted 1:0 $187,647.00, a reduc-
tion of $55,535.00 from the total sales
of $243,182.00 for the year 1941.
In addition to the above, there were
three thousand dollars worth of War
Savings Starcips sold throughout the
county in the. month of December.
Some,'Of these'stampswould be in-
cluded in payment for some of the
certifloates, but it is • believed that
Most of these stamps would still ,be
in the .processeeif • collection ;aseaeh'
stamp wotild7 have to be combined
with fifteen others befere they could
be turned in for certificates. .
War Savings Stamp sales at Sea -
forth and •Egmondville amounted io
$1,392.00 in December, as compared
with $1,024.00 in Noveraber.:'
It was . announced last week that
Mrs. Mina Howard, of Belgrave, would
be conducting a program over radio
station CKNX at Wingham on Satur-
day, Feb. 13, at 1.15 p.m. It is re-
gretted that Mrs. Howard was unable
to carry out this program as arrang-
ed, but she will, however, be putting
on her program later in the month.
Due to. the very bad road conditions
the radio programs which have beem
arranged by the schools each week,
will be postponed for a couple .of
weeks. These programs will be phi
on by the schools making the best
showing in. the sale of War Savings
Stamps. The -small schools will have
an, equal. chance with the' large
schools . to be included on the pro-
gratns, as credit is given to each

The game wasn't two minutes old
when "Farmer" hhcFaddin gave the

from a scramble in plant of the net.
Less than a minute later Bradley tied
it up, but Sthokey Harris gave the
Beavers the lead again at the ten-
