Mrs. Dexter, who's late husband was a former fire chief' in Blyth, insists she was not afraid of the fire, only that she might have been dropped and reinjured her hip while she was being carried out of the house. IIt was the second 'call within sbc hours for the fire depart- ! meet which had earlier hurried :to the outskirts of town on County Road 25 to extinguish a small fire caused when a bearing on a Brindley Trans- port Truck seized up and over- heated. Little damage was done to the truck but the cargo was overheated because of the heat from the wheels. That incident took place about 9:00 p. m.

The price of greatness Often Canadians tend to look at their great neighbour south of the border with a tinge of envy. Salaries seem higher, consumer goods and housing cheaper. Canada is a large land, but not a superpower like the United States. Yet the privilege of living in the world's wealthiest nation is also a great one, Crime is just one instance of how much more fortunate Canadian city dwellers are in comparison to their `American neighbours, A recent poll showed that one person in three living in U.S. big centre -city areas has been the victim of some kind of . crime in the past year. And one in five living in the suburbs has been assaulted, burgled or seen property vandalized during the same period. Fear of crime has become a fact of urban and suburban life. Prodded both by concern and fear, Americans are spending enormous sums for public and private policies -- about $8.7 billion annually according to a Rand Corporation study. Of about 800,000 security personnel in the country, only 50 per cent are public police. In New York, for instance, private security men outnumber public police 40,000 to 30,000 Canada, with vast open spaces and fewer high-density trban areas, is a lucky country -- SThose citizens do not - to far, at least - have to cope with the grave problem facing Americans. The Watergate scandal is merely: asymptom of a disease that has infected too many segments of the com-. munity--thebelief that nothing is quite as important as money. $20,000 housewife • by SHIRLEY KELLER, Montreal. economist Dian Cohen figures Canadian housewives work an average 99.6 -hour week putting them into the$20, 000- a -year bracket.

BUSINESS The federal government will introduce legislation this fall to encourage and assist the establishment and growth of Canadian small business, through the creation' of the Industrial Bank and Develop- ment Agency, Industry, Trade and Com- merce Minister Alastair Gilles- pie said "the strength of our economy in the years ahead will depend to a large extent on the progress and growth of small business in Canada. We want to assist that growth," CONFERENCE ON WESTERN ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES On July 24-26, Calgary will be the site of the Conference on Western Economic Oppor- tunities - one of the most important federal -provincial meetings in history. Justice Minister Otto Lang said recently in Regina "the Conference I predict, will be of major national significance, and I believe it can, with an honest and sincere approach, alter the course of our coun- try's history as it relates to Western` Canada and the as- pirations of western people," ROYAL VISIT Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip will be back in Canada at the end of the month, for a five-day visit to the National Capital Region, They will stay at the' residence of Governor General and Mrs. Michener. from Ottawa The Queen's official func- tions will include the opening of the Lester B, Pearson Build- ing, the new home of the Department of External Af- fairs and she will officially receive Heads of Government who will be attending the Commonwealth Conference in Ottawa, August 2. 10, EXPORT CONTROLS The federal government has extended its export controls to additional agricultural pro- ducts such as edible oils, anI- mal fats and livestock feeds, These controls, announced by Industry, Trade and Com- merce Minister Alastair Gilles- pie, come 10 days after the imposition of export controls on soybeans, flaxseed, rape- seed, linseed, fishmeal and their by-products. These ac- tions have been taken to pre- serve Canadian supplies for domestic use. TAX FORMS NOT DIFFICULT A recent Gallup Poll re- ports that 54% of those sur- veyed had no difficulty in coping with the new 1972 income tax forms. Only 17% reported they found them difficult, while 29% felt that they were fairly difficult. This would seem to contra- dict Opposition suggestions at the time that "harassed tax- payers" need more time to complete the new forms. THE BLYTH STANDARD, July 18, 1.973, PG, 3, Army worms on the rise Armyworm populations are usually kept at a low level by parasites and predators, but every so many years, when conditions are particularly favourable for their develop- ment, they exceed their natural enemies and become a economic problem, The last major outbreak occurred in 1964 and a minor one deve- loped in 1972, As of the week ending July 13, 1973 there have been two fields reported in the area where the level of armyworm has warranted spraying for control. There has been at least a dozen more grain fields where army - worm has been located. The mature larva is about 'one and a half inches long, nearly hairless, dark green or brown in colour. They feed mostly at night or on cool days. They feed on oat; corn, barley, quack grass and foxtail, in that order. In this area they have been located in barley fields. They feed on the awns and then remove the heads. In barley fields they can be detec- ted by awnless heads and or barley heads lying on the ground. In the daytime they remain on the ground. M the grain crop matures, they will migrate to the corn field. Generally they do not feed on beans or alfalfa. At the present time there is no reason for alarm and we can hope that heavy infestations do not occur;,however, grain and Coolliiimau) OUR DRUGS VETERINA corn fields should be watched, If they are located in a field, it does not mean that spraying is warranted; however, if there are five or six per square foot, action should be taken, Sevin• and malathion are recommended as insecticides, Two other ins- ecticides are also recommended, methoxychlor and parathion. However, these latter two sprays are more dangerous to the oper- ator than the first two.

Jehovah's Witnesses to hold convention in Toronto Something other than racing enthusiasts will occupy Wood- bine Race Track near the end of July this year, For five days 33,000 Jehovah's Witnesses from Southern Ontario, the North Eastern United States,: and many other lands, will congregate in Toronto, Report on Home Care Since June 1972, Home Care has been available to all resid- ents of Huron County. During the fiscal yearApril lst, 1972 to March 31st, 1973, 231 patients received Home Care, Twenty-six patients were from Seaforth Community Hospital, 26 from Clinton Public Hospital, 17 from South Huron Hospital, 37 from Alexandra and Marine Hospital, and 40 from Wingham and District Hospital,, thus allowing them to leave their hospital early and continuing their'convalescent care at home. Forty-seven patients from the County were admitted to Home Care from their home, thus avo- iding admission to hospital, and 38 patients were referred by the attending physicians from the hospitals in London, Stratford, Kitchener, and Listowel, Home Care must be requested by the family physician and the patient: must require Nursing and/or Physiotherapy.' Then," homemaking, drugs, dressings, hospital equipment, may be provided. The care of each patient is individually decided, as required by each patient and according to the care requested by the family physician. Physiotherapy and Nursing Care may be provided as long as the patient is improving from these services, but homemaking 'is limited to 80 hours per patie- nt. If homemaking is still required alternate arrangements are made, either privately or through Social Services. Pat- ients of any age can receive Home Care andthecosts are paid•by their 0. H. I. P. insurance: The youngest patient was 10 years of age, during the past year and the oldest was 93, with S5;; per cent of the patients over 65. As the services of Home Care are arranged according to indiv- idual needs, not all patients require all the services. During the past year, 87 per cent rece- ived Nursing Care, 31 per cent received physiotherapy and 58 per cent received homemaking. Home Care is a team effort KEEP C4N4D4 GRQ INQ '. PLANT TREES! involving' the patients, his fam- ily and friends, working with the Nurse, Physiotherapist and Homemaker, in providing the care required. Any medical condition may be accepted for Home Care as long as the family and patient are willing to participate and adequate care can be provided. By allowing the patient to return home early or stay at home while being treated or recover- ing from an illness, care can be provided in the home where the patient so often is more comfort- able and content in familiar surroundings. Cost of providing Home Care to residents of Huron County was $10.95 a day, during the past fiscal year.

The Bible --with its solution to man- kind's pressing problems. This "Divine Victory" Inter- national Assembly of Jehovah's Witnesses will be one of 30 such conventions held on this continent this summer - from Halifax to. Panama. Mr. Laurence Gray, conven-. tion manager at Toronto noted, "one of the main reasons why ' to many people.so_eagerly plan to attend this particular assem- bly is to hear down to earth discussions of the Bible with its answers to the many modern day problems." He added, "even more vital, the program is designed to encourage each one to withstand the rapidly increasing pressures during this short remaining period before human rulership, saddled with world-wide unrest and the spec- tre of famine is removed and replaced by a system of things ruled by mankind's Creator. T:.ramtni Ministers Study' BY REV. FRED CARSON In a recent edition of the London Free Press, my eye was attracted by a heading in big bold type which read, "Lutherans pledge to reverse 'laxity'." The article went on to tell of a recent convention of the Missouri Synod of the Lutheran Churrh and how it had to return to its more "conservative stance." This decision, however, did not go unchallenged as some members attempted to persuade delegates that such a view was foolish. The Rev. Leonard Martin was one such spokes- man who said in part, "The real issue was whether we were to remain the progressive church we've become or return to the church we were 40 years ago." How does one define the terms "conservative" and progres- sive"? In the past few decades the church, in order to be progressive, has had to be flexible enough to flow with the tides of the time. That is, if the church were to oppose soc- ietyin its everchanging moral.structure, it would be accused of'being ultra conservative or fundernental.- This is no less true today, and it would appear that a large part of Christen- dom has fallen into the trap that has been set by society. The Christian Church has permitted Satan to deceive it into thinking that certain moral issues are good and proper and -deserving of support. One issue which has been prevalent during the past few years and which a large part of Christendom has erringly supported is abortion. The abortion issue has been delated' for years - governments have passed legislation relax ing its controls so that it is available for any who wish it. In mFny cases, the Christian Church has not only tolerated it, but it has sanctioned the act. It is true that the Church has denied that it would condone abortion on demand, but when it suggests that aborting should be granted for medical or mental reasons - what has it done?? It•seems to me that this covers just about any feeble reason "imaginable. Never- theless, this is the decision made by a Church which designs to remain progressive.. I wonder, however if the same church takes into consideration the psychological after-effects which the mother must suffer. alone. • Abortion is a very involved topic which deserves a. great more discussion, but space does not permit. Also, there are many more such important issues facing the Christian today which not only are deserving of a response from the Body. of Christ but are also deserving a Christian decision. There are many issues facing society that need the guidance of the Holy Spirit and it is the responsibility of the Christian to seek this guidance for the furtherance of God's Kingdom. We must cease our concern with trying to please society - a Godless society - and be more concerned with doing God's will. If this means that the Church will become con- servative, then so be it. It is nearly time that the Christ- ian Church took a rigid stand against such permissiveness as that which is prevalent iri'today's society. It is time to return to the wad of truth. It is time to return to God's word. It is time to turn to Jesus Chrfst.

Growing giant gladioli spikes To grow those giant gladioli spikes that win praise and prizes you should give them special attention at this time of year. During July and August gladioli grow fast and are particularly vulnerable to insects and unsuit- able weather, says Burke McNeill horticultural specialist, Ministry' of Agriculture and Fi•nrl. Water is crucial for the growth of impressive gladioli spikes. • Let the weather be :your"guide, If the soil around the plants begins to dry out, give -it a good soaking. - Spikes must be staked if they are to grow long and straight.. - Use either_ bamboo-or.lathe stakes, check" the spikes daily -and re -tie If,this is not done regularly, the spikes will not grow straight. The: most destructive glad pest is the. gladioli thrip. It kills glads by rasping the outer sur- face of leaves or blooms and sucldng the plant juices. From 1/15 to 1/25 of an inch long the adult thrip is dark brown or .black in color and will feed on any part of the plant. Larvae are both smaller and lighter in color and usually feed in the leaf -or bud -sheaths. Reasonably effective thrip control sprays are Malathion, carbaryl (sevin) or chlordane. Follow manufacturers' instru- ctions carefully when using any of these. As a last resort, dig out diseased plants -- notic- eable for the silvery blotches on • leaves or flowers -- and destroy them. If .the spikes are cut when the bottom three or four flowers are in bloom, they will provide several days of pleasure`inside the house. Personals. Jim Clark, Keith and Ann and Mn, Maud Leeming .were among those that attended the McGavin picnic on Sunday at Family Paradise Park. .

THE BLYTH STANDARD, July 18, 1973, PG.9, Boating tips Every summer thousands of boat owners take to Ontario's lakes and rivers. Every concei- vable craft from rowboats and canoes to 40 foot yachts take advantage of the miles of water- ways in this province, Unfortunately, some of our land-based pollution problems get transported onto water, Here are a few hints far you, the boater, to ensure that the waterway you use remains clean. Don't litter, Any cans, bottles or wrappers that go out in your boat should be taken back to shore for proper disposal. Debris thrown overboard is more than just an eyesore. It can be a hazard to swimmers, water skiers and other boaters. Handle fuel and oil carefully.

It makes a big ugly slick on the water. Takeit easy. Running your power boat -flat out continually ' makes a racket that others on the lake don't appreciate. It also burns up fuel and engines fast, and in some areas the wake from fast boats cause erosion problems. Slow down and make a few friends along the way. Protect your water supply. If you have a fresh water tank aboard, fill ft only from an assured safe supply, such as a municipal water system. 1.1 you have any doubts about your tank, sterilize it with one ounce of household bleach for every t: Tee gallons of water for at least 12 hours. Then flush'it well wi' clean water. ,LET UB MIllt$ SOUR OLD BEITER .THA 1' ,:For • • estimate and . a loot at our west samples of materials 111��IIP;MIIIInIl),� fr; 11„,o,".-: —CALL UPHOLSTERY pfiobhiing Ph. 5234272 = R.

Theatre group refused use of Huron County jail Despite a last minute request • from Pendulum Players, a young peoples theatrical group of God- erich, asking County Council to reconsider its denial of facili- ties at the former Huron County Jail to the group council up- held a recommendation from Property Committee refusing use of the pre mases. In a brief filed with the coun- cil by Pendulum Players it was explained that the group is an organization formed of local high school and university stud- ents, "united in a single aim of presenting gratis theatre to the residents of and visitors to Goderich."• Last year the, group was grant- . ed use of the former -jail facili- ties. "The jail provides all the nec- essary ingredients for the group to be a success," the brief said. "It provides a home for the group, a unique setting to help attract visitors and the best acoustics of any place in Goderich." "We realize," the brief went on, "that the main objection to use of the jail is the question of safety around the construction of the assessment office extention. There is an alternative way of entering the courtyard other than the main yard gate; this is, by way of the front entrance." "The executiveof Pendulum Players are willing to pay out of their own pockets if nece- ssary two people to supervise the area of construction at any time the public is present." Property Committee Chairman Harold Lobb said, however, that Belgrave-area girl married in Wingham ' On Saturday, June 16, amid a setting of yellow and bronze mums and candelabra, Thomas George Miller and Joyce Marie Coultes were united in marriage in Wingham United Church. The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ronald C. Coultes of R.R. 5, Wingham, and the groomis the son of Mr. and Mrs. De Witt Miller of Wingham. Rev John G. Roberts. of Belgrave officiated. The organist was Mrs. Sydney Thompson of R. R. 5; Wingham and the soloist, Mrs. Claire ' Rainer of Scarborough sang,- "0 Perfect Love", and "Wedding Prayer".

Hill says tax ammendment Good • "A recent amendment to the Income Tax Act will take much of the inequity out of taxing capital gain on marketing quotas," says Gordon Hill, President, Ontario Federation of Agriculture. Hill is a white bean and hog farmer from Varna. This amendment, which passed third reading recently, recogn- ized the Valuation -Day value of farm marketing quotas. This means that taxable capital gain will be calculated on the'diffe- rence between the sale price, and either the purchase price or the market value at December 31, 1971. The greater of these two values will be exempt of tax." Previously, any,value gain since the date the quota was bought, would be used to cal- culate taxable gains. "Without farmers and farm groups working closely together - there is not a snowball's chance in hell that we would have got the amendment near the House," says Hill. Originally, the officials in the tax department did not understand the problem. However, -united action, spear- headed by -the .Canadian. Fed- eration of Agriculture, got the change before parliament. The CFA was strongly supported by the Ontario Tobacco; the Ontario Commodity Council; and some hard -fighting MPs in the three major pdrties, "Taxes on quotas needed to be reviewed. Recognizing their V -Day value now treats quotas the same as other capital,assets. That's how it should be," adds Hill. • his committee recommended to Council that the earlier decision .be up -held. "This still might -conflict with the building program," he said. He said if the public were to use the front entrance too many changes would have to be made in the jail and this would be "too expensive for the county." Lobb said he realized that Pendulum Players was probably a "good thing for the county but I see no way for this year." Pendulum Players explained they would propose performances on Tuesday's and Saturdays with practice sessions taking up ano- ther three nights of the week. The only alternative now open to Pendulum Players would be to make use of the Goderich band - shell in Harbor Park but they explain this presents many dif- O.P.P. break counterfeiting In October 1972, Detective Sergeant M.

O'Grady, both members of the Ontario - • Provincial Police Anti -Rackets Branch, counterfeit and forgery section, began investigation of the uttering of expertly couterfeited certified cheques in 'municipalities in'south and southwestern Ontario. The cheques in question were tendered in return for expensive engraving and photographic equipment, two-way radios, weapons, motor vehicles and various other articles. In co-operation with Waterloo Regional Police Force, Metro- - politan Toronto Police Force, Mississauga'. Police Department, Guelph Police Department, . Brantford Police Department, Brampton Police Department, • Hamilton Police Department and 0. P. P. Detachments Waterdown and Kitchener and ' Burlington distr ict=headquarters;. an extensive investigation was carried out in southern Ontario • . faculties and might not be fea- sible, At Harbor Park there are no facilities for storing props and costumes and moving all the equipment each day would make the project nearly impassible. In other jail news the property committee explained that the matter of the future of the farmer County jail was still under inve- 'stigation in conjunction with the Coderich Town Council and the Huron County Branch of the Architectural Conservancy of Ontario (formerly Save the Jail Society). In his report Mr. Lobb ann- ounced that the matter of the jail was on the agenda of the ring and parts of the United States. As a result of this investigation, on July 7, 1973, Detective Ser- geant McMaster and Corporal• O'Grady, accompanied by ' members of 0. P, P. detachment Waterdown, arrested -a man who was in the act of negotiating the purchase of a. printing press at a firm in Burlington, Ontario. As a result of this arrest, premises located on a farm in . Oakland township near Brantford were searched by members of the O.P.P. Anti -Rackets Branch and No. 3 District O.P.P. mem- bers. The following property was seized: - Equipment and material des- • igned for the manufacture of counterfeit money, certified • cheques,' Ontario drivers' lic- ences and licence plates. - Quantities of, counterfe it fiberglass licence plates. - Quantities of completely counterfeited certified cheques. - Approximately $30, 000. worth of property allegedly obtained by a fraud.

It provided power for lighting his house, pumping water, spray irrigation, water heating, cooking, ironing and heat lamps for his piglets in winter. The manure is from about 700 hogs. Up to now • building the installation has been too expensive, but with continuously rising energy costs it is close to being econom- ical now, I am studying different sys- tems now, as being used in Germany, France, India, Australia and Taiwan and if I find some system that will fit my operation I will surely give it a go. **k Pigs are saving human lives. Thousands of pigskins are used for the treatment of severe burns on people. The pigskin is very similar to the human skin in cell structure and is used as a dressing, `so the skin can breathe while a new skin is grown under- neath. If you do get burnt, don't worry about the hair, for the pig- skin is shaved before use. )11014 Ontario's pork marketing board officials are worried about the low production of pork. It means that we cannot supply the market and when because of good returns., the production increases again, markets will be lost that are hard to recover, This will mean low returns to the producer in the future, with the resultant cut- back and high prices.

Fertilize your plants Many gardening enthusiasts spend small fortunes on annual flowering plants and then ex- pect them to bloom all summer long without any help from fer- tilizer. ertilizer. • ,'Too often, we selfishly ex- pect a sea of color without any more help from us than watering now and then," notes R. A: Flem- ing, horticultural specialists, Ministry of Agriculture and Food. Petunias, marigolds, zinnias and many other small annuals will produce bigger and better blooms if they are given peri- odic but regular feedings of either a liquid plant food or small amounts of a good gar- den fertilizer, such as a 7-7-7, a 5-10-15 or a 10-10-10'ana- lysfs. When using soluble fertil- izers, follow the manufacturer's recommendations for the type of annual to be fertilized. Granular garde n fertilizers may be applied at a rate of 1-12 lb. of fertilizer for every 100 sq. ft, of garden area. This appli- cation should be repeated once a month. It helps garden vegetables too, if they,are side -dressed with a good fertilizer from time to time, Larger, healthier vegetables will result, i■■■U■■■silIlI■■■■■■■■■■■■■U■■■■■■■i■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■ ■ ■ ■ i ■ i ■ ■ 1 ■ 1 ■ ■ ■ i ■ 1973 Pontiac Catalina, .4 dr., fu Ily equipped 8 1973 Nova ,4 dr.., 6 cyl, auto., p.s., p.b. 1 ;1 2-1973 Chevelle Mali us, 4 d I V8 auto., p.s., p 1,973 Cutlass, 2Ar. hardtop,. i ..VB', auto., p.s., p .b.
