Track, Tractorand Farm Implement Dealer 4..1 ` ` Seaforth e 4 ■ "Growth of your towns in the future will means changes of var- ious kmds. said John Pearson, n, last week in Clinton. "Be ready by good planning now, to direct this growth as it comes, by guidance into the paths you want it to follow." Mr. Pearson, who is field liaison officer from the Community Plan- ning Branch, Department of Plan- ning and Development, . `'Tdronto, was speaking -to a joint meeting of municipal officials from the coun- ties of Huron and Perth. These two counties are Zones one, and two, respectively, of the Mid- Westtrn Ontario Development As- sociation. Arranged for the purpose of .iscussing town planning, under the guidance of Mr. Pearson. the meeting saw more than 50 muni- cipal leaders from Stratford, St. Marys, Listowel,,Blyth,. Milverton, Brussels. Exeter, Mitchell, Sea - forth. Hensall, Wingham. Zurich and Clinton and Goderich..in at- tendance. Mr. Pearson reviewed the seven basic types of land use. starting with agriculture,-' (the f i r s t). through residential. commercial, industrial, roads and streets, parks and playgrounds, and municipal grounds. • He emphasized that commercial areas must be kept compact, for people • want to shop where they can move easily from one store to another, . and within reach of Huron Farm News During the past week the ground has dried * sufficiently to allow farmers in the south end of the county to start spring plowing and. top dressing of wheat and hay and pasture. If favorable weather con- tinues. seeding could start within a week. Wheat and legume crops appear to have. wintered reasonably well, but some could no doubt benefit from an addition of amonium ni- trate within the next couple of weeks. Although there has been a strong demand for Garry oats, the supply of seed is expected to meet the demands. Brant barley is very scarce and has reached a price of $3.35 per bushel for' registered seed. - An extremely good run of maple sap has been reported during the past week. According to some, it was the best run of sap in the past five years. Injured Enroute From Florida Word was received here Monday night of an unfortunate motor ac- cident which involved Mr. and Mrs. Cecil Wheeler and Mr. and Mrs. Dan McKenzie, who have spent the winter in Florida and who. while enroute home, were in- volved in a motor accident which hospitalized all four. Mr. and Mrs, McKenzie's daughter, Miss .Alice McKenzie. of Dresden, received the word of the misfortune and in turn telephoned Rev, A. W. Watson here. The accident occurred about 5 p.m.. Monday afternoon and all four were taken to Hartford City Hospital, Indiana. Mrs. Wheeler is reportedly the most seriously in- jured suffering from a head injury which is reported to Jae serious. Mr. Wheeler and MrW and Mrs. McKenzie received lacerations and shock. Conditions surrounding the accident are not known here. The McKenzies and Wheelers had pre- viously sent word to neighbors, here that they expected to arrive home on Tuesday. -Blyth Standard. Plan To Purchase Phone Co. A proposal to purebase the phys- ical assets of the Goderich Rural Telephone Company Limited was approved at the annual meeting of the Huron and Kinless Munici- pal Telephone Ssystem Tuesday. The meeting was held in the Town- ship Hall at Ripley. The Huron and Kinloss System, reported to be "in good shape," has 850 sub- scribers, The Goderich Rural Tele- phone Co. Ltd.. which has its head office at Dungannon, serves around 600 subscribers in an area extend- ing south from Amberley to Car- low and east to the vicinity of Blyth. Earlier• it was reported that approximately $20,000 would be in- volved • in acquisition of the lines of the Goderich Rural system. It was understood that the purchase did not include all the assets of the company. The move is in keep- ing with Ontario Telephone Auth- ority policy of encouraging group- ing of smaller phone companies to meet today's demands for service, -Goderich Signal -Star. •'•p• THE MOTHER MOTIVE Liquor manufacturers are definitely out to capture the home. In beautiful full-page advertisements one sees the mother motive used skilfully to break .down sales resistance. Not as yet do they have mother drinking. But she. the gra- cious hostess, serves h e r guests beer, wine, hard liquor perchance. She probably gives kindly advice to youthful guests. "You had better be ,content with a light wine. This sherry now. You can't get drunk on sherry." ,Tow wrong she is! Even natural sherry is high in alco- hOlic content. But 'fortified'.' sherry is something else again. Sherry (natural) has 16 de- grees of alcoholic content (fort- grees of alcoholic content, (fortified) has 20, Claret has 10.5, champagne 11, port (na- tural) 16r (fortified) 22. Youth .CAN get drunk on sherry. Few people do, perhaps, for it is usually taken in small quanti- ties. It would seem to be an ideal "first drink" wine for young people in that type of lidzne where tnc ther serves tt ' erages , to her .guests:-- es • Dit. E. A. MeMASTER • ks. post office and municipal buildings. Parks and playgrounds, he said. are essential, for if, they are not planned for in the beginning. a municipality is in for headaches 'ater. There will be trouble with - hi]dren who have rlo adequate Mace for recreation, and commun- ity spirit will be lacking if there are not sufficient parks and play- grounds. Industries want conditions suit- able to them now. and protected in the future, They want room for expansion, protected for the'm, so that when growth comes, they can expand at reasonable cost. "Roads and streets are most im-. portant. Traffic is becoming in- creasingly the problem. Do not al- low houses to build on the ends of streets, for in future. dead-end streets may mean the various parts/ of your town are hard to reach. Plan for width of streets and know that your street system is laid out for growth," he said. A lively question and answer period followed. Mr. Pearson laid out the procedure through which a municipality should move to ob- tain a planning by-law. "Town planning is of great in- terest to rural municipalities, es well," said Mr. Pearson. "As the towns grow, residences creep out. side, and stretch up and down the highways leading into the towns. This means added school facilities must be provided by the township. Strip development squeezes out the land behind the homes. It may mean that good land is made use., less for further development, if planning is not undertaken. early. With these rural housing develop- ments, the townships are required to provide services, and their lim- ited experience, in such things is a handicap. Rural and urban ar- eas need each other in this mat- ter of planning. Co-chairmen of the meeting Huron Juniors Plan Activities A meeting of the Huron County Junior Farmers and Junior Insti- tute was held in the Agriculture Board rooms. Clinton, -with the new president, Boyd Taylor, in charge. There were 30 in attendance. It was decided 'to hold the an- nual Junior Farmer Church Ser- vice for Huron County again this year.

A committee was put in' charge to plan the service. consist- ing of Boyd Taylor, Shirley Mc- Michael. Maurice Love, Catherine Campbell and Earl McSpadden. The H. R. Baker Meeting Im- provement trophy will be given to the winning club at the Junior Farmer at-home. During the year two sets of judges visited two of the meetings of each club and judged them. The remainder of the meetings were judged by the notices and reports which were sent into the agricultural office each month. These judges were Mr, and Mrs, George Robertson. R.R. 5, Goderich, and Mr. and Mrs. Howard Pym, R.R. 1. Centralia. The at-home will be held Friday evening, April 26, in the Seaforth District High School. with dancing from 10 to 1 o'clock, with music by 'Bill Stuart and his orchestra. During the time from May 1 to May 9, Ronald Farquarson. a Scot- tish young farmer, will visit Hur- on C-unty. He will be staying with a Junior Farmer from the Clinton and Seaforth clubs. It was brought to the secretary's attention of each club that the deadline for the Junior ' Farmer membership fees to be sent into the Department of Agriculture of- fice is Thursday, April 18. Larry Wheatley, R.R. 1, Dublin. a member of the Seaforth Junior Farmers, was appointed as assist- ant county director for the Pro- vincial Junior Farmer Board of Directors. A field day committee was elect- ed as follows: Harry Bridges, North -Huron; Boyd Taylor, North Huron; Joyce Little. Colwapash; Shirley McMichael, Wroxeter; Bill Dougall, South Huron; Bert Pep- per, Clinton, and Catherine Camp- bell, Seaforth.

Ii was decided to have a Junior Farmer bus trip some time in the summer or fall months. The trip will either be a one or two-day trip. A committee of A'. S. Bolton, Boyd Taylor, Shirley McMichael, Murray Gaunt, lien Campbell and Catherine Campbell was put in charge of linin up the trip 'arid setting the date.

Co-op Insurance Has Annual Meet The annual meeting of Co -Oper- ators Insurance Association was held in Toronto recently. The automobile section had a very dif- ficult year due to the increased number of accidents and the greatly increased cost of repairing cars. However, by equalizing pre- vious income tax payments and due to reasonable profits in other 'oranches of the Company. the fin- al result showed a small profit for the whole organization. The Ontario Wheat Producers held their annual meeting in Tor- onto last week. This is a small group. but one that has large problems. As the crop is grown over a large area and used for feed for livestock as well as for flour and cereals, it is difficult to arrive at a fair price for the pro- duct. The price is also affected seriously by the export market, regardless of the fact that only a very small percentage of the wheat or flour is exported. Due to the uncertainty of leg- islation pending in both Provincial and Federal Governments, it seemed to be generally agreed that the executive should take steps to form a negotiating board rather than a marketing agency.
