The amount allot- ted for the war effort for the year, is $27,100. Greek Fund. Boosted On the recommendation of the war- den's committee grants of $500 .to this Navy League and $1,000 to the Greek War Relief Fund were author- ized; also $25 for advertising for re- ortiiting for the 'reserve army. A debate as to whether the grant of ,$.500 made, Eby the Huron Agricul- tural Committee(authorized at the January session) to the County Agri- cultural War Production Board should be charged to the war effort account, or to the general account, was charg- ed to the latter on the recommenda- tion of the warden's committee. A revision of the standing rules:' and regulations of the council or the County of Huron occupied the re- mainder of the maiming session. Thursday At today's afternoon. session the decision was reached that -a magi- strate should be appointed in Huron to look afer the entire county. On motion of Reeves Turner and Bow- man the council carried a motion "That this .county council petition the attorney -general to, have -a magistrate appointed in Huron County to lock af- ter the 'entire county." A reward 'of $25 will be offered tb anyone who can apprehend the per- son who persists in cutting the cable on the flagpole in Court House Park. This wasdecided on the recommenda- tion of the property committee...-; A wire cable will replace the rope one. The flag is always raised during the sessions of the county council, but the pole this week has been bare of both the Union Jack and the ropes.• In answer to an inquiry. from Reeve. N, R. Dorrance, Reeve Watson, chair- man of the committee, -stated that the •cost of decorating the court room and some of the offices was approxi- mately $800. _clerk, Norman Miller reported that since the start of the war to tye pres- ent, the people of Huron County had bought $1,000,000 in ' War Savings certificates and Stamps; had donated ,al4proximate1y,..-11,1110.,0,00 for. ,.patriotic purposes, and hadainveste•d in Victory. Loans, $13,000,000-a total of $15,- =000;000.': Bea -i es Wee 2,550 '-men `and women had &listed in the armed forces. The report was greeted, with applause. ` The police committee reported that since the January session County Constable William Gardiner had join- ed the provincial force; and his suc- cessor, Charles Salter, pf Exeter, now stationed at Wingham, was introduc- ed and was .congratulated on his re- cent marriage. • The 'recommendation of the com- mittee that Traffic Officer Norman Lever be placed under the police coni- mittee, rather than the road commit- tee, was carried on division. the vote standing 20 to 6 in favor of. the mo- tion. Reeve V. D. Falconer, Clinton, chairman of . the police committee, speaking in support of the clause. said he favored having all the• con- stables under the one committee, pre- ferably the police committee, .as in case of accident it would mean re- ceiving 100 per cent. insurance. All would be on the same basis and re- ceive, the same consideration. At present, he thought, Mr. Lever seem- ed to -be a police force of his own, The treasurer's ,revised estimates on which a 4 -mill rate Was fixed were accepted as .recommended by the fin- ance committee. A resolution- from the County of El- gin asking that the federal govern- ment be requested to freeze farm la- bor was referred to the agricultural committee. N. W. Trewartha, ,Clinton, an ex - warden of the county, invited to ad- dress the council, spoke strongly against any movement to do' away with the sale of ` cattle under 900 pounds. ; He commended the county police for their good work, and 100 per cent. co-operation with the Town of Clinton. The report of the education com- ;raittee was taken up clause by clause with Reeve Cecil Wheeler in the chair. . Council concurred with the request of the ,Federation of home and School Associations to have representative children of the schools ITt the county attend a session of the council. No action was taken on the resolu- tion from the County of Wentworth protesting .against Section 39 of the' High School Act,"as it does not affect this 'county. ' That the boundaries of S. S. 17, Howie], Township, should be dealt with" by that municipal council was recommended by the committee. 'It was .pointed out that according to the act if the school were a union one, " arbitrators could be• appointed but if not the township deals with it. S. S. 17 :is entirely within the township. The' Department of Game and Fish- eries will be petitioned not to set an open season for deer this year. On motion of Reeves Whitmore and Wheeler the formation of a post-war ecmm-ittee was reterred to the war- den's committee. Council also carried a motion spono sored by Reeves N. R. t)o1rance and M. A, Reid, "bitat owing' rte a possible fuel ,shortage, this central re'queet the federal government to consider the employing :Of war pridon,ers for the cutting of a large supply of wood so that same may, be dIstri,btttlsd throOgler re'cognize'd fuel ealert," �+t0tlut',+ kAOtjl1 ��`eep#�ratl, t'l'ros`, s a • lolt neat deal bi er tl ratn'•hey ,sre7'sT+ ago loasi: b' e1aQ•{1ile�'a, 'i 4,R�'� i i(,Y'. .r', 'hea'ror ai;;r euitRrak,ireAreeea tine, :$91-4 414' on ..couo cpiingii'; 40, ,l #44,r, -'after" giving a yepq t pn Aprieultural egad, 49.40" 111?e, 411.04 t,; •Ie uaged, tine neeeaa/ty of Obtalning� -western •grai and ;.etOted that -there are' few farness who cannot get cred- it at'the bankrs, aur# :that holt* Z$ the tame : toww)?}1y: tlliair: , St}pply regardiesa of what they baro rib' pay..

The.farmers..of this county have an' enviable record • in production oft foods. In 1935 they •sold 58,000 bac- on 'hogs, and 125,000 -in 1941-a ,specs •tacular increase, which dropped back last year to 120,00.0.- • The production, of hogs realizes $3,500,000; an.c'l the subsidy ,to Huron is $80;000. In 1935 production .of. beef cattle was $23,000;' In 1941 $119,000, and last year 'decreased to $25;000. Last year, 1,600,000. pounds of cheese was dude in the two factories at Holmesville and Molesworth -- 'a record for the county. This year the production will be decreased. "Thousands and thousands of chick- ens are ranging the farms of the county, Mr. Shearer said, as he pre,- dieted re.dieted a large increase in poultry raising. The quantity- and • quality are excellent. Sheep production will be'up and there should, be an increase the growing of -white beans at the guaranteed price of • $2,50 a bushel. The food production is the problem which will require the attention of every farmer.• The speaker .outlin.ed •the sources which might be tapped „for farm "la- bor. Fifty boys. from the Farm La- bor Bureau •in Toronto will by avail- able to Huron County.. Many of these are giving; satisfaction. In South Huron it is planned to bring in 30 conscientious objectors. from near. Elmira in Waterloo County. They are experienced farm workers. The wages for each is $40, mit of which $25 is given the laborer and $15 to the Red Cross. Twenty farmers and farmers' 'eons. have' -been alloted to Huron and will be here until the mid- dle of .August. • They will be a help, and .will be paid $40 a month. The prospects for -the fruit crop is bright with the exception of Spy ap- ples. Of the latter, there is a fair crop around Bayfield. Over seventeen tons of fruit spray supply has been brought in by the Huron Fruit Grow- ers' Association.. • A seed .survey was made to find .good sources for supply. This proved particularly' valuable in the .case of soybeans •and many of these were sowed this year instead -of wheat and barley. Buckwheat seed is scarce. The ceiling price is $1,60 a bushel. Farmers having buckwheat seed were asked to contact the office. The men at the airports at Clinton and 'Centralia did a wonderful ,job in assisting ;on farms last • year, MI. Shearer declared, and they will be ava.i)able this year. The co-operation of the people 'of town and community will be required -to achieve the best production• possible. Wartime 'gar- dens , are being encouraged every- where. Many people in the towns are stepping up food production by ,keep- ing -a, flock of hens and a few pigs, if they have the accommodation, One man at Blyth had turned his garage into a pig pen and raised 17 pigs. In -the loft above hs' keeps .hens, which 'produce 35 eggs a day. a Leadership ..had been given by the Lions Clubs ,of Clinton and Exeter in the production; of food,. ,sugar beets and turnips. aaa Splendid results had been achieved in the various clubs for young people of which there are five in the county -garden, Holstein calf, swine and calf club. ••. The Lucknow School Fair will re- ceive a grant of $15, and Reeve W. J. Baker was -named representative on the Blue Water Highway Associa- tion as recommended by- the finance committee. After considerable debate the coun- cil concurred in a resolution from the County of Wentworth asking the gov- ernment to abolish daylight saving and revert to standard time. M. A. Reid, Reeve of Seaforth, and W. J. Baker, of •Goderich, arguedthat daylight paving was essential to the • (dentinued ,on Page ,7) - With cawt* toBred Out' ttr paatuii, 94;.1:9#p gra,3s after' a,vvrt}ter �of , bl feeflb,3$r 'ttII s is the •tiMe pf year,',.

' 'Another 10,000 to 12,000 Ontario far- mers send their milk to dairies for distributiorl: as is. They have a more complicated problem. ' "The producers ,are each given a quota to fill," expounded R, F. Irick, secretary er the Ontario Whole Milk Producers' Association. "If normal food requirements are increased or de-" creased, the quota is regulated to cor- respond. "With the . spring season, there is more milk, and for a short period, these producers- have more milk on hand than their quota calls for," he said. .Many of the larger dairies' take more milk than their quota, at manu- facturing prices, to be mgde into choe- olate milk, or perhaps ice cream or buttermilk, but thee -whole milk pro- ducer may stili be left with a supply of milk on his bands. mer ..ctO1leer arleyc sirR �ta pitta ' • t?4es 0.'9 1,a3tdg4R.:0 1' 1A it, '1,1141#34,..19% o4:i�•in�'a 'b`X'Ia;i.3},an1 14f>", Tac; "Transpctrta w#uld• 'beai '4g. ztlopl S°qr •thenal weelil' be. eep0•rt.tte rgilk an0 .a.e. nding the :creamn t ► 'cream!, eries to he Made' into' butter:" What xxiilk is ;}.eft over can be fed - to the livestock; "We want ;eggs po' badly now, and there i8 no :better geeds for poultry than milk.
