" . 4590x2 Huron is Tops In Agriculture, Men's Club Hears Huron County has the largest acreage of improved land in the Province, 742% of the total /and h the County; some 615,000 acres, failing in this category. There are some 5,700 farmers. Mixed 'farm- ing, featuring the commercial pro- duction of beef cattle, hogs and poultry predominates in the coun- ty. One hundred and twenty-nine thousand hogs were produced for market last year and poultry was just around one and three-quarter billion in number. Total cattle population is around 150,000 head, of which approximately 40,000 head are kept for milking purposes. These were but a few of the statistics which Agricultural • Re- presentative G. M. Montgomery revealed as he addressed the Men's -Club of First Presbyterian Church Tuesday evening. But they were enough to support the speak- er when he said that as far as agriculture went, Huron led the province. Mr. Montgomery saw the day fast approaching when Huron farm land would be difficult to purchase. Already, he' .said, de- mand has forced the price to .new highs. This situation results from increased Cart£d1' e population and the withdrawing 'of existing farm lands adjacent to cities to other purposes. While farm income in relation to income in other fields is less than the . high achieved in 1951, Mr. Montgomery said he had no doubt farming would soon come into its own again. He had no hesitation in advising any who were inter- ested to take up farming. The farmer, he warned, must however be on his toes and take advantage of modern methods and procedures. In this respect the 4-H program is playing a great part in developing Junior Farmers. Elmer Rivers was chairman and the speaker was introduced by Scott Cluff. Appreciation of the gathering was expressed by Clare Reith, who suggested there was a place for a provincially sponsored movement for urban young people similar to the 4-H program: which the province made available to rural youth. Mr. Montgomery showed movies following his address, which in- cluded a film of 4-H activities in Huron County. ,Kippen East W.I.

Considerable 'discussion took place concerning appointments to different boards and commissions, and it was decided to leave these over to a full tonna meeting Which, according to the acting reeve, could likely be held the lat- ter part of the week. COUNCIL: DELAYS (Continued from Page 1) , Councillor ,Leslie disagreed and felt that -since Seaforth depends on the agricultural community surrounding the town, it should co- operate with and support agricul- tural organizations, Snowsremoval costs this winter have totalled $310, Councilor E. H. Close, cheirm"an of the streets committee, „' told council. Some sandinghail been done, and a dr in on Sperling Street repaired. Mayor McMaster asked what ac- tion was being taken to remove, a large pile of snow at the corner of West William and Goderich Sts. He said he had received a com- plaint from Dr. F. J. Bechely. The snow was reported. to have been shoved from a garage entrance. Councillor Christie felt the town was responsible'', and said he had seen a reference .to,,such a situa- tion in the Municipal World.' Coun- cillor Habkirk said two service station had approaehed him con- cerning snow removal. Council agreed that the Clerk would check with the Municipal World and in the. meantime the street committee will consult the town solicitor. Dump is Closed The town dump was closed to the public because refusewas being discarded along the road leading to it, Reeve Scoins said. The pro- perty 'committee was,, .forced- , to take that action a short time ago. "It was really', a disgrace," he said. Complaints were :being received now because it ,was closed, be. stated. He•wonde4•ed whether sup- ervision for a couple of days a week- would be feasible. Councilor Close 'said a local col- lector was prepared to pick up garbage and store it until spring. Supervision would cost too much and, in any event, bridges leading to the dump will not eery a 'snow plow. The road can't be main- tained in winter. The new property comnj,ittee will considerthe matter. Fire Alarm Trouble Fire and water chairman, B. F. Christie, reported 'that there has been trouble with the fire alarm system since the building of the new police station; the circuits are overloaded, he said, and was giv- en permission to have the • situa- tion remedied. Representatives of the Bell Telephone Co. are expect ed in town to review the situation. The siren bas not operated pro- perly since conversion, Mr. Chris- tie stated. Reporting on sewage. Councillor H. Leslie said that thermostats to control the heat at the disposal plant have just arrived and will be installed immediately. Control switches are to be brought up from below to the upstairs portion to prevent rusting out The fire and water committee will consider a request from the fire brigade for an increase in grant to $1,000. The request point- ed out that. Seaforth would still have the lowest protection cost of any similar town. Reeve Scoins said members were losing money and it was difficult to attract new members, It was suggested par- ticipating townships should pay a standing charge, similar to that paid by the town. Name Officials The community centre is paying operating costs only, Mayor Mc- Master said, although no financial report was presented. Hockey teams are being paid 70 per cent of the gate this year, 'which brings community centre income down. A debt of $4,500 remains on the permanent floor. J. E. Keat- ing and J. A. Stewart were re- appointed by council as represent- atives to the community centre board, and Mayor McMaster and Councillor Christie, council's re- presentatives. Other appointments made were: D. H. Wilson, clerk, relief officer and treasurer, $2,800, with $300 ad- ditional allowed for extra help; W. E. Southgate,. assessor, $700; J. -F.
