The clerk; treast r er's recommendations were refer- red by council to its finance coin- inittee. The total Huron budget of $414.1- 300 41.4,.300 for general purposes, Mrs. Ers- kine recommended,. should be left as it was , provisionally established at the January session. The bud- get is scheduled to be completed and confirmed by council at this session. The _draft figures;, that have gone to the finance com- mittee for study would require a _egunty tax rate for 1955 of 11 mills, consling of four and a quarter mills for county roads, and six and three-quarter" mills for gen- eral purposes. The saving of 57,500 foreseen in hospital costs is expected to. be balanced,pby•in : es of 52,500 in costs of ' m ''cipal government, $1,000 in reg try office expenses, $1,000 in cou property exendi- tures, and,, the _ crease in the allotment to ° the Huron County Home. Interest totalling $3,200 has been earned by county funds on deposit with the Guaranty Trust Co,, coun- cil was informed Wednesday. The funds on deposit were raised by debenture to pay for the building of the new court -house that is now under construction. Rather than have the money lie idle, the coun- ty authorities . arranged to put it on deposit in an interest-earning account, and the $3,200 earned should be enough, Mr. Erskine pre- dicted Wednesday, to cover the interest charges the county will have to pay on borrowings for the rest of this year. As the building of the new court- house has progressed, it has been necessary to draw $250,000 from the Guaranty Trust account; the remainder will probably be drawn during the current month, the county treasurer advised Council. Expenditures for the building of the new court -house during the first five months of 1955, the coun- ty accounts show, were $187,081.89. Other Expenditures Other expenditures from the county treasury during the five months ending May 31 have been $191,069 for work on county roads; $12,753 in Children's Aid Society grants and for maintenance of C. A.S. wards; $45,296 in hospital charges; $30,000 transferred to the building account for the addition to the Huron County' Home; $10,- 000 for the operation of the Coun- ty Health Unit; $5,100 for the coun- ty library,,;. system; $8,864 for . ad- ministration of justice. Operation costs at the Hli ron County Home for the first five months of this yea/. it was report- ed to Council Wednesday, were $30,974, of which the three biggest items were $10,003 for wages, $5,- 208 for food and $2,976 for fuel. To help balance the outlay, the county farm, operated in conjunc- tion with the County Home, show- ed revenue of $2,091 from sale of hogs,, $238 from sale of cattle, $827 from sale of milk, and $84 from sale of eggs. Paying inmates at the Huron County Horne contributed $8,547 in the first five months of this year. Assessing Costs An explanation of the biggest item of $7,000 for the county as- sessor's office was sought in coun- cil session Wednesday by James Doig, reeve of Tuckersmith. The three principal elements in the as- sessing estimate, he learned, are $3,700 for the asessor's salary, $1,700 for the salary of a steno- grapher, and $900 allowed for trav- elling expenses; minor office ex- penses make up the remainder of the $7,000 total.
