Coyote damage 'shows
no change Bellinger says
The amount, of damage being done by
coyotes in the arca covered by the
Wingham Office of the Ministry of Natural
Resources has not increased significantly
in the past several years,
Roy Bellinger. game and lash entorce-
mcnl co-ordinator for the ministry said
Two charged
in Friday's
Legion breakin
Two lilytln amen have been charged in
connection with a break-in at the Blyth
Legion spine time Friday night.
Ontario Provincial Police from Wingham
said most ()I' the goods stolen, valued at $87
have been recovered. Charged in connec-
tion with the case • was Barry McDonald,
aged 18 oI' Blyth and Leslie Cook, 16 of
Blyth.
They face charges of break, enter and
theft, Constable Ron Bell of the Winghatn
Ontario Provincial Police investigated the
crinis, .
seven attacks 00 sheep were recorded in
1974, fairly constant over recent years. in
the Owen Sound arca, however, there have
bccn great increases in coyote attacks, he
said. He was speaking to about 40
township livestock evaluators from Huron,
Bruce and Perth Counties at a course at the
Hullett Wildlife area on how to distinguish
between attacks by dogs and attacks by
coyotes or wolves,
Mr. Bellinger said there areno wolves in
this area, He also estimated that less than
two per cent of attacks on livestock by
coyotes and wolves were on cattle, "And
I've never seen a goose, chicken, or turkey
that's bccn attacked," he said, "although
that's probablj' because predators can
carry them away with then."
The course was designed to teach the
evaluators how to distinguish between
attacks by dogs and attacks by coyotes and
wolves. Under provincial legislation,
compensation for attacks by dogs comes
from the township fund set up and financed
through dog tax. Damage by wolves or
coyotes is compensated by the province.
Under provincial law, Mr. Bellinger
said, farmers have the right to kill roaming
dogs found in areas where livestock is kept.
WEDNESDAY, MARCH 26, I975,
Hullett will join Huron -Bruce
in riding boundary shuffle
Another report 00 changes in the
provincial Electoral Boundaries Act has
been tabled in the Ontario Legislature that
puts half of Huron County in Jack Riddell's
Riding, and the Northern Half in Murray
Gaunt's Riding. Both are Liberal members,
The new bill would see voters in
'fuckcrsmith and Scaforth returned to the
Huron Riding, after objections were raised
over a report last December that placed
'fuckcrsmith and Seaforth in thc Huron -
Bruce Riding.
The Huron Riding will lose Lobo
'township and S1rathroy from its Southern
end. They will be added to Middlesex,
The new 11uron•Middlesex Riding will
include the Towns of Goderich, Clinton,
Scaforth, Exeter, and the Huron County
Townships of Goderich, Stanley, Tucker -
smith, Hay, Stephen and Usborne; the
Middlesex 'i'ownships of Adelaide, Bid -
Mph, East Williams, McGillivcry, and
West Williams and thc Towns of Parkhill,
Ailsa Craig, and Lucas.
The remainder of Huron County,
including Blyth, Wingham and the
Townships of McKillop, Hullett, Colborne,
Ashfield, East and West Wawanosh. Grey,
Howick, Morris, Turnhcrry and 13russcls
Will be in Huron -Bruce Riding.
Jack Riddell, the Liberal member of
Huron -Middlesex, may be running against
the present Conservative Agriculture
Minister, -Bill Stewart, who loses his
riding, partially to Middlesex and partially
to Huron.
Mr. Stewart, who has been agriculture
minister for 14 of his 18 years in the
Legislature, is under party pressure to
return to the legislature in an election
expected either this June or in October.
Mr. Stewart said he• will not contest the
Middlexes riding which now becomes
Conservative MPP Bob Eaton's.
If Mr. Stewart Docs run in Huron-
Middlcscx, he ►dill he contesting a riding in
kvhich he doesn't live, because. his farm is
in London Township, which is in the
Middlesex riding,
He had indicated last year that he would
not seek re-election.
The changes in the electoral boundaries
was an effort by a three -nun commission to
make the ridings more equitable in the
province, The C'oniniission consisted of
Mr. ,Justice Campbell Grant of London,
Legislature Clerk Rodericlr Lewis, and
University of Western Ontario professor
Robert Sansom.
The comissions' final report, which was
tabled in the Legislature on 'Tuesday,
increases the number of seats from 117 to
125. Six of the eight new scats are in Metro
Toronto, and the other two are in Kitchener
and Ottawa.

J ust not enough dirt
Despite attempts by the Opposition parties to make the dredging
scandal appear like a Watergate cover up, Canadians seem virtually
unconcerned about the whole thing, from a political standpoint at least.
Neither the press, or the Opposition has been able to dig up any real
evidence to of political wrong -doing. The political headhunting drove
Labour Minister John Munro into hospital and if anything, put public
sympathy on the side of the government, not the Opposition. When
C.B.C. linked the name of John Turner with the scandal, he made a
move likely had many people in the nation cheering when he
threatened legal action and had C.B.C. backtracking as fast as it could
on the whole matter.
But while, from a political standpoint, the dredging scandal seems to.
have died down, it is interesting from a standpoint of morality in
business. Like the Watergate affair, most of us suspected that this sort
of thing went on, but when it is actually revealed, we're a little startled.
And again like Watergate we wonder if this is just the tip of an iceberg:
the dredging companies rigged bids and got caught but how many
other companies dealing with government have rigged bids and gotten
away with it?
It would seem the government, indeed all government, should be
working harder to make sure it isn't being taken every time it lets a
contract to this or that company. After all, it's our money that's being
stolen.
Those forgotten
new cities
A recent report in a Toronto newspaper hinted that the string of new
cities the provincial government had planned for Ontario are now "on
the back burner": in other words, we won't be seeing any action by the
Provincial government on new cities.
The reasons given in the report were that this is an election year and
the government wants to play it cool; that Darcy McKeotigh, not John
White is now calling the shots as treasurer of the province and has
different ideas of what should be done; and the government is going to
concentrate on one of these new cities near Pickering before getting
mixed up in the rest.
Whatever the reasons, the decision to cool the issue is a blessing for
Ontario, in the long run.
True, we need new cities in Ontario, but we do not need new cities in
the heart of the best farmland in the province as the provincial
government has been planning. The "new" city at Pickering will really
just be an extension of Toronto which is already growing too fast. It will
eat up farmland. The city planned for Haldimand county would take up
some of the most prosperous farmland in the nation.
We need new cities, but we need them to the north and east in an
area that will reshape the growth of the province and spread population
pressures more evenly. Why not a new city along the north shore of
Georgian Bay provided with cheap power from a new generating
station that could be built there instead of in Huron county?
This provincial government is always trying to tell us how dynamic it
is, but for the most part its really to frightened to take a really
far-sighted view. It's compromising the province to death.
Time for a new system
The inadequacies of the present system of financing municipal,
school and county budgets have long been known. It's about time
something was done about correcting the situation.
How would you like to be a municipal councillor this year? He sees
costs of his own level of government increasing due to inflation and
knows that taxes will have to go up. He sees the need for improved
facilities in his own municipality and worries where he can get the
money. And on top of all that, he knows that he'll be getting an order to
provide a good deal of money for the county and school board levels of
government. They are spending the money, but the local councillors
has the responsibility for raising it, and he also gets the blame when
the taxes go up.
It's like the husband or wife who has to earn the money which the
other partner goes out and spends like crazy. The only difference is
that a partner in marriage can legally refuse to be responsible for the
debts of the other partner. Municipal councils can't.
The provincial government has been busy re -organizing everything
in sight in the past decade yet it's done nothing to clean up this
archaic . fiscal system. The government, for instance, unloaded a
ridiculously expensive education system on us, but leaves it up to the
local municipal councils to raise a good deal of the money to run the
system, even though the municipality has virtually no say in how the
money is spent. The only solution seems to be for the government to
take over 100 per cent funding of education.
The situation at the county level is just as bad, but the solution
seems harder to come by. Due to government pressures, the county
level has grown enormously in the past few years as county library,
county planning and county health systems have been set up, This year
alone the county budget jumped 20 percent.
- if the county is going to continue this growth pattern, it should have
its own source of revenue, At present, it sets a budget and leaves it up
to the municipality to figure out where the money is to come from.
Many times, to try to keep tax increases from the ridiculous stage, local
councils have to cancel their own programs which would have been
far more beneficial to the local taxpayers than some pie -in -the -sky
county dream.
Some sanity in financing is needed. Maybe if the provincial
government would put its mind to work on that problem instead of
far-fetched government re -organization plans, we'd be better off,
Then, again, looking at the government's track record over the past
decade, maybe we'd be better to leave well enough alone.

for summer employment and
since the government has recent-
ly announced Ontario Experience

apply for programmes operating

would prefer to be within
commuting distance of their

- I will list some of the
programmes which I think niay be
of particular interest to students

community work for your people
in connection with provincial
courts (family division).
•2. Ministry of Colleges and
Universities • young people can
work in art galleries, museums,
regional libraries throughout the
Province.
There are also interest -fret

up to a maximum of $1,000 per

own summer business,

THE EDITOR:
The Ontario Provincial Police
warn that with the approach of
warns weather, building repair
cheats will be active across the
province. These gyp -artists prey
on the elderly and unsuspecting
home owner, overcharging for
roof, chimney, siding and drive-
way repairs.
If you are approached by
anyone to contract for repairs, be
sure they represent a legitimate
and responsible company. Sign
nothing and pay nothing until you
are sure that you are dealing with
an honest, established business-
man. Remember, a reputable
contractor will not usually de-
mand a Targe deposit before
starting a job.
If yo don't know the contractor

reliability. Should you have any
doubt, contact your local police

ment of the Ontario Provincial

sincerest appreciation for your
co-operation and assistance dur-
ing our financial campaign in
February.
Our objective this year was
$3,600,000 and although all
returns are not in, due to the
disruption in our postal service,
we are quite hopeful that our
objective will be attained.
Without your willing co-opera-
tion in communicating our needs
to the public, the Canadian Heart
Fund would not be able to express
such an outlook.
Heart disease is everyone's
problem - and again our thanks
for helping us bring to the
attention of the public, that
research should be everyone's
responsibility.
With best wishes.
Yours very truly,

Today highereducati�n is more
impor .ntthan ever before.
This is :tOnthrjojsjn
to help makeitavailable
to everyone.
Ontario is the best place in Canada to get a
• higI ereducation. Why? First, the range and
diversity of programs our institutions offer.
Second, the Ontario Government programs
that help`students finance their education.
Already, `2 out of 5 students at Ontario
colleges and, universities are receiving
financial aid through the Ontario Student
Assistance Program (OSAP). OSAP assists
full-time post -secondary students with
government-financed\loans and grants
•
based on naed, not on academic achieve-
ment.
Now, starting w�the 1975-76 academic
year, there will be two new programs.
The Ontario Student\l,oans Plan is de-
signed to help students v,)kto are ineligible
for aid from OSAP. It will benefit part-time
students, some students en led in up-
grading programs and those t Ding pro-
grams which are shorter, or have ? i ferent
entry standards than required by 40 AP
regulations.
The Ontario Special Bursary Program
gives non -repayable. grants to people in
serious financial need, particularly those
who can improve their financial situation
by taking one or more courses. It's designed
for part-time students who receive social
assistance, are unemployed, or who have a
low family income.
If you would like to know what financial
as'stance is available to you, and how to
appl�i\for it, contact the Student Awards

Mr. Cummings said he feels he

eight county organization design-
ed to promote the area's tourist
attractions across Canada and in
the northern United States.
The association covers Elgin,
Essex, Huron. Kent, Lanlhton,
Middlesex, Oxford and Perth
counties.
The main problem facing the
association, Mr. Cummings said,
is enlisting financial support frons
the eight county councils. The
association, he said, will ask each
county to contribute live cents per
capita annually toward its budget.
The province, he said, has
pledged an equal amount up to
$45,000 to support the associa-
tion, In addition, the province will
contribute $30,000 annually to be
used for administration.
"And so far," Mr. Cummings
said, "that $30,000 is all we've
had to work with."
The travel association hopes
operators of tourist facilities in
the eight -county arca will become
members.
"We've contacted about 600
operators and we're hoping; a

Milk producers
get boost
Ontario dairy farmers who
produce milk for table use are to
receive an additional $1.16 per
hundredweight for their milk,
effective April 1.
In announcing the incrcasc in
returns to the Province's 8,500
fluid milk producers, the Chair-
man of the Ontario Milk
Marketing Board, George R.
McLaughlin, stated that for
several years the Board has set
the price to its producers on an
economic formula.
"Recently available informa-
tion on production costs," he
said, "indicates that milk pro-
ducers require an immediate
incrcasc in price to offset cost
increases and bring milk
producers' incomes closer to
parity with those of industrial
workers. The base value of the
formula has been revised to bring
it more in line with current cost
and income conditions and more
nearly reflects the amount of
returns required to provide
adequate incomes to milk pro-
ducers."
The $1.16 increase per
hundredweight raises the farm
price for raw milk in Southern
Ontario from $10.85 per hundred•
weight to $12.01 per hundred-
weight and in Northern Ontario
from $11.42 per hundredweight to
$12,85 per hundredweight.

not be all uptight about it."
Spectatoritis made pcoplc want

people just want to get the final

Spectatoritis calls people to put
their own lives on the same line as
those who represent • them - in

people a chance to have all the

Opposes "Free Abortion On
Demand"
Prime Minister: "1 don't know
if your slogan is "free abortion on

not mine, At some point you are
killing life in the fetus, Whether
it's after three months or eight
months, at some point an abortion
is killing. 1 will never say that the
person who kills doesn't have to
answer in some way for that
killing and justify it in some way.
And if I kill a man in self-defence,
I should be able to explain the
causes of it and the courts will
force me to do it. if a mother kills
her child, or if a dotter kills a
what? self-defence •of
Of
the mother's health or of her
happiness or of her social rights
or her privilege as a human
being? • I think she should have to
answer for it and explain.
"Now, whether it should be to
three doctors or one doctor or to a
priest or to her mother-in-law is a
question you might want to
argue. But I do not believe, as I
think the extreme case is put very
often by the Women's Lib, that a
person who commits this act of
destruction - free abortion on
demand • should just treat it as ...
'It's my body. you know, I have a
right over my own body,' You do
have a right over your own body •
it is your body. But the fetus is
NOT your body, it's somebody
else's body. And if you kill it,
you'll have to explain."

Praise for Hospital Board
highlights annual meeting
Praise and efficiency were the
by -words at the Wingham and
District Hospital Association
' annual sleeting March 18.
Praise for the hospital, the staff
and the board of governors came
from all the speakers. Retiring
Chairman Robert Ritter spoke
briefly but enthusiastically on the
"interest and dedication" of the
board members who "regard it as
a form of public service." Ile also
commented on the "high quality
of, patient care" available at the
hospital, adding that "the quality
of care is related to the manner in
which the board looks 10 the good
of its staff."
Mr. Ritter acknowledged the
work of Mrs. I. l:. Murrey, who
retired from her position as
executive director in .lune 1974,
and the generous help of the
-hospital Auxiliary.
Words of praise were also
offered by Mrs. Robert Ritter in
her report from the public
relations committee. "We have
;in excellent hospital of which we
should be proud," she said. This
attitude was echoed in all the
reports presented by Ills various
committee chairmen and was
manifest in the speedy passage of
the annual sleeting that lasted
Tess than two hours,
The brief repurIs Werc charac-
terized by a lack of excess
Ottawa extends rent subsidy
to non-profit, co-op housing
Urban Affairs Minister Barney
Danson announced March 3 that
the Federal Government will
share the cost of making rental
housing available to low-income
people in non-profit and co-opera-
tive projects at rents adjusted to
their income.
These arrangements will be
subject to federal -provincial
agreements and the Federal
Government will pay up to half
the operating losses where rents
do not cover the costs. The
Federal Government already
makes similar contributions to the
cost of public housing. In 1974
these federal contributions to the
Belgrave girl
honoured
at shower
A community shower was held
Tuesday, March 18 in the United
Church Sunday School room for
Miss Kathy Dunbar whose
marriage takes place early in
April.
A short program was presented
consisting of musical numbers by
Dianne Scott, Julie Gnay, Patti
and Kim McDowell. Mrs, Garner
Nicholson gave two humorous
readings and a sing song led by
Dianne Scott, Trudy Taylor and
Cindy Campbell concluded the
program.
Following a short address
expressing the good wishes of
everyone Kathy opened her gifts
assisted by her mother and
mother of the groom. Kathy
thanked everyone for the gifts
and the neighbour ladies for
arranging the shower.
Lunch was served by the 6th
line ladies.
Shower held
in Belgrave
Friends and neighbours of the
Belgrave area gathered in Knox
United Church basement on
Saturday evening for a miscellan-
eous shower in honour of Miss
Karen Pengelly.
Contests were conducted by
Mrs. Lorne Jamieson and a
musical number by Dianne Scott
was enjoyed by all.
. Mrs. Gordon Bosman read the
address following which Karen
opened her gifts and expressed
her thanks. Lunch was served by
ladies of the 9th line.
to $68.5 million and involved
112,000 units. The policy now will
be extended to low-income
tenants in non-profit and co-
operative projects. It will apply to
existing as well as new housing.
"This policy represents a new
and different way of helping those
people who are least able to
afford suitable housing for
themselves, and for their
families," Mr. Danson said.
"The rate of construction of
public housing has been declining
in recent years for a number of
reasons, including some reluct-
ance by municipalities and local
residents to accept projects of this
kind. We have been testing more
flexible ways of providing hous-
ing assistance to people who need
it, including, on a limited scale, a
rent supplement program with
the Province of Ontario. By
making it possible for low-income
people to live in nonprofit and
co-operative projects, as an
alternative to public housing, we
will, not only make more units
available but I believe we will
achieve a more desirable social
integration. This new policy, or
course, will not eliminate public
housing but it will provide an
alternative for some families and
individuals who may prefer it."
Herald of spring
It is true that the snowdrop and
crocus announce spring outdoors,
but the Easter Lily is the
recognized indoor sign of the new
season. "And because Easter is
early this year, the homeowner
can rush spring a little, at least in
his mind, and shop for a lily in
early March," says Ontario
Ministry of Agriculture and Food
horticulturist, D.M. Sangster.
Look for a plant that will be
about 18 inches high and have
five to six flowers at Easter,
suggests Mr. Sangster. To keep
the lily fresh, place it in a cool
spot - 60 to 62°F. Give it plenty of
Tight and keep the soil moist at all
times. Too high a temperature or
too dry an atmosphere can cause
blasted or unopened flowers.
Because lily bulbs are useless
for forcing again, most people
discard them after flowering has
ended. However, in the warmer
parts of Ontario, the bulbs can
sometimes be planted outside
after the danger of frost has
passed, to bloom again in the fall
or even the next year if they arc
given winter protection.

DEAR ANN LANDERS: Almost
all the letters in your column by
overweight people a re from
females. This one will be
different. I'm a he, 21 years old,
and i want to respond to "Livini
In Fat City And 'frying Like HeN
'i'o Get Out."
When I was in 11igh school I was
a fat slob at (cast 50 pounds
overweight. I hated myself but
wouldn't do anything about it,
stayed out of men's clothing
shops because I knew 1 couldn't
get into anything halfway decent,
On weekends I locked nwself in
my room and ate and studied. My
grades were great, but niy weight
was terrible,
I graduated with high honors
and was accepted at one of the
country's top schools. Within two
weeks I met a girl I flipped over,
decided then and there to shape
up quit eating garbage,
drinking beer and snacking
between meals. I also went on a
strict exercise routine. What
needed was an incentive, and the
chick was it.
Within a month I had lost 18
pounds and asked her out. She
gave me a lot of encouragement
and helped me lose another 30
pounds within the following five
months. Now I look and feel like a
different person.
So please print this letter for
the other Baby Hippos who are
too lazy, stupid or unmotivated to
do anything about themselves.
Nobody has to live in Fat City
unless he wants to. There are all
sorts of roads that can take you
out of it. Check the map •• which

necessary.
Last Friday night when he was
driving me home he asked if I'd
mind if he went by his place of
business and picked up some
papers. I knew he had to pass my
house to get to his office but 1
said, "O.K." After he picked up
the papers he asked if I'd like to
go for a little ride instead of
straight home, 1 said, "You're
driving."
He pulled into a wooded lane
about half a mile away and
stopped the car. l'nt ashamed to
tell you he kissed hie and I
responded. Suddenly I got to
thinking about where things could
lead and demanded that he take
me home. He said, "O.K. I hope
you aren't mad." I said I wasn't
because it was as much my fault
as his. 1 should not have let him

Clinton Hospital hopes to update facilities
The Clinton Public Hospital
could undergo a rejuvenation and
be updating if a three to five year
plan being studied by the board of
directors is implemented, it was
revealed at the annual meeting of
the Hospital board last Monday
night.
Retiring president Bob Camp-
bell made the prediction but could
give no firm details because plans
haven't yet been finalized and all
plans must be approved by the
ministry of health, which is on a
belt tightening course at present.
"They are just ideas and
dreams now," Mr. Campbell
said. "But we don't take too
much of a back seat to any of the
bigger hospitals, we're always
buying new equipment and
updating our facilities where
possible."
Mr. Campbell said that 1974
was a very busy year for the
hospital, with a bigger turnover of
patients and a decreased' length
of stay, "as ordered by the
ministry of health."
Statistics released by Douglas
Coventry, the hospital adminis-
trator, showed the number of
adults and children admitted to
the hospital last year had climbed
to 1,856 from 1,770, but the
number of patient days had
declined 14,422 last year from
18,164 of 1973. The occupancy
rate had dropped to 73 percent
last year, compared to 83 percent
in 1973,
Out-patient physiotherapy
treatment zoomed to 4,423 last
year from 3.520 of 1973, and
out-patient visits to emergency
climbed slighly to 4,653 from
4,539 of the year before.
.rhe number of births at the
hospital. however, declined to 88
from 97 of the year before, while
the number of X•Rav examina-
dons rose slightly to 5,569 last
year from 5,121 of the year
before.
The financial report revealed
tha the hospital had only a deficit
of 5940 on expenditures of
$1,061,878, while the hospital
pumped over $717,000 worth of
wages and salaries into the local
community.
The financial chairman, Mrs.
Lawson, also revealed that the
tentative ward rate for this year
was set at 554.25 per day, with an
extra $5.30 for semi -private, and
$8.30 for private.
The meeting was also told that
the hospital was now doing all its
own laundry, resulting in a saving
of $1,000 per month, and the new
hospital incinerator is now opera-
ting very well,
Mr. Campbell told the meeting
that the hospital board was one of
the few public boards left who
work for nothing.
Mrs. Ted Davies, reporting for
the Hospital Auxiliary, said that
the auxiliary had a balance at the
year end of 54,415 and a
membership of 1,018 of which 20
regularly attended meetings. She
said that last year's Penny Sale
receipts of $1,219 was the largest
ever, and the Auxiliary had given
on R.N. bursary 0 n two R.N.A.
bursaries in 1974.

This year the Provincial Confer -
.encs program took a look at one of
the serious problems facing
Junior Farmers and many other
organizations • how to communi-
cate effectively.
With the thence, "Elf? What

ed their personal abilities to
Conscientious farmers
have nothing to fear
"Farmers who are only carry-
ing out normal farm procedures
have nothing to fear from officials
of the Ministry of the Environ-
nient', said Ontario Environment
Minister Bill Newman recently.
Recently, some farmers have
expressed concern over their
practice of spreading manure
over fields and the possible
odor, 'Environment Ontario offi•
cials point out that this concern is
essentially needless worry.
Normal manure spreading and
subsequent cultivation is both
Applying
liquid
manure
on corn
"There's no question that on a
large number of farms, liquid
manure could fill the fertility
requirements of corn, for at least
some of the acres in crop
production, without additional
commercial fertilizer," says Pro-
fessor T.H. Lane, of the Ontario
Agricultural College's Depart-
ment of Land Resource Science.
He points out that, in fact,
some Ontario farmers have
produced large acreages of corn,
using their manure resource
without any commercial fertilizer,
over the past four to seven years
with no reduction in yield.
But to make best use of their
manure, farmers need to plan its
application carefully. With a
limited number of days available
for land preparation, planting and
manure application, naturally the
first priorities will be land
preparation and planting. With
the limitations of spring weather
conditions, it's often difficult to
spread the manure before prepar-
ation starts.
Farmers using liquid manure
systems have a degree of
flexibility to consider; the manure
can be side -dressed to the corn
crop after planting, up to the time
that corn is at (east a foot high.
Research at Guelph has shown
that liquid manure can be
side -dressed either on the soil
surface between the rows or inject
below the surface between the
rows, with the same
effectiveness.
The key complaint required in
manure for corn production is
nitrogen. Sufficient nitrogen must
be available to the crop,
especially if manure is to be used
as the only source of fertilizer
nutrients.
Professor Lane recommends
that farmers make use of the
manure analysis service provided
by the Land Resource Science
Department to establish the
fertilizing quality of the manure
being used for crop purposes, and
to learn at what rates manure
should be applied, either in
combination with commercial
fertilizers or by itself.
With the higher dollar values
for nitrogen, phosphorus aid
potash in today's markets,
farmers must make the best use
of this important by-product.
necessary and beneficial for farm
operation. Area residents are
asked to show consideration
towards this practice.
However, a small percentage of
farriers do not follow normal farm
procedure and this could lead to a
valid complaint by a neighboring
resident. Ministry officials will
investigate and advise the farmer
to correct the situation. In most
instances the farmer will follow
the advice of the official and the
situation is quickly remedied.
For farmers who refuse to
accept the advice of the official,
an independent body called the
Farm Pollution Advisory Commit•
tee will be called in, The
committee of four farmers -- Otto
Crone and Harold Eubank of
Hagersville, Donald Switzer of
Smithville and John K. Peart of
Caledonia •• was appointed jointly
by the Ontario Ministries of
Environment and Agriculture and
Food in March. 1973 to provide an
objective assessment of farm
environmental situations. These
members will visit the site and
make recommendations.
if the committee's recommend-
ations are not followed the
Ministry of the Environment has
no alternative but to begin legal
action.
During this action the farmer
still has right to appeal his case to
the regional director or the
Environmental Hearing Board,
If the farmer in question does
not appeal or remedy the
situation the Ministry may initiate
court action under the Environ-
mental Protection Act.
Ministry officials report that
few farmers are willing to carry
their case further than the Farm
Pollution Advisory Committee.
"If their peers find them at
fault the farmer is usually more
than willing to correct the
situation", said a Ministry

Al my age, of course,
Chances of being torn between
\v0 young harridans is rather
slight.
As a matter of fact, there hasn't
even been much of a line -tip of old
harridans lately, so I guess I'll
have to settle for those two old
adages.
One oI' them goes thus:
"'There's no foul Iikc an old fool."
As adages go, it fills the bill. It is
short, blunt, and, il'you happen to
be an old fool, brutal. I don't Iikc
that one much.
The other one says: "'There's
many a good tune played on an
old fiddle." This is also short and
to the point. It is usually delivered
with a \oink and a leer by some old
fool of either sex, speaking of
which, that is what it usually
refers to. I like that one better
than the first, though 1 am not
given to leering or winking. Not
for years.
Anyway, to get to the heart of
the matter, I've taken up
cross-country skiing and those
ancient adages ride with me, one
on each ski. They are heavy. as
well as old.
When I state that I have taken
up cross-country skiing, I must
confess that it is not a reciprocal
deal. I have taken it up only once,
and it has taken me down more
times than I care to contemplate.
But that's beside the point.
Cross-country skiing is not for

No, it's really' a sport for us
romantics, the few of us left who
arc loners, who have a fierce,
overwhelming urge to pit our
muscles and• will against a fierce
and alien Nature.
Even before 1 strapped on the
skis, I knew 1 would love it.
Pictures rolled through nay mind
like a film, with me in the major
role. Gliding, swift and silent,
along a lonely winter trail.
Slipping through .the stilly woods
like a wraith. Stopping on a peak
for a belt of brandy and a munch
of bread and cheese, before
plunging, eager -eyed, into the
terrible, hurtling danger below.
It's a tough world for us
romantics. For some reason, the
picture seldom lives up to the
advance notices.
I didn't ,exactly glide, not at
first. I sort of shtif'lled, rather like
an old man with a double case of
gout. Nor was the trail really
lonely. Not if you count dogs,
little children, and old ladies who
came up from behind, shouting,
"Track!" and went by me as
though I were standing still.
Which I \vas, a ;good deal of the
time.

I have taken up other spurts,
like golf and curling, and have
learned that unless he is
extremely vigilant, the beginner
niav develop some bad habits
which arc hard to shake.
I was determined that this
would not happen with skiing. On
my very first time out. I thought
\vas developing a bad habit. My
left ski scented to want to veer to
the left, and my right ski to the
right. This seems logical enough,
but it was not conducive to
skimming along the trail,
especially when the skis took
turns falling of the boots.
Quickly. I checked the harness.
Sure enough, the chap from
whom I'd bought Ole outfit had
put it on cockeyed. My Iocs fitted
into it, but my heels didn't even
touch the skis. They were
dragging in the snow. Right
there, I decided to Raise Cain
with the installer.
Fortunately, a li'ic11(1 caste

skis seemed to want to go in
opposite directions, he suggested
that I had them on the \wrong feet.
This was patiently ridiculous. A
ski is a ski and a foot is a foot, but
he persevered. Sure enough, the
ski I'd had on my right foot was
marked with a large L, for Left,
and vice versa.
Once that bacl habit was
• resolved, I was skimming along
Iikc a bird. Dodo?
I had a couple of other bad
habits, but I solved them swiftly.
One was jabbing myski pole into
my ski instead oI' into the snow.
This tended to throw me off any
stride, not to mentio►i off my feet.
I put a stop to this by wrapping
the sharp tips of the pules in wads
of foam rubber. They're not much
good in snow, but it's a lot easier
on the skis.
Another was a habit of making
the sign of the cross with my skis.
This scented to firing about a

solved this by cutting off my skis
right in front of my boots. I hardly
ever get them crossed any more.
Some people have trouble
getting up hills. I don't. I use the
1)oppclgangcr method (hands and
knees).
All in all, it's a tine, bracing
spurt. Hcl'c and now, in public

There are only a couple of
things I don't like about i1. Onc is
my wife. When I get 200 yards
behind her, she stops and waits
for sie. When I get to where she
is, on my last breath, she's had a
fivc•minutc rest, and lakes off.
Another thing, more embarr-
assing than otherwise, occurs
when I get off the trail and hick
behind a tree, trying to get the
blood out of my eves and my heart
001 of my ears.
A couple of young punks sail

Behind the scenes
Co-operation - a missing Zink
BY KEITH ROULSTON
Where would this country be
today if it hadn't been for the
spirit of co-operation of our early
pioneers?
Well the chances arc that there
wouldn't have been a country at
all because few of the pioneers
would have survived in the harsh
climate of Canada if they hadn't
all stuck together and helped each
other out. If that spirit of
co-operation hadn't been present
we wouldn't have half of the
public facilities we have today. It
was community co-operation that
built the roads. It was community
co-operation that built the
schools. 1t was community co-
operation that built the churches.
It was community co-operation
that built the town halls.
In short this country, and
particularly the small towns were
built on the spirit of co-operation
in the community long before we
ever had millionaire enterpre-
neurs come along to make money
providing services and long
before we evern had bureaucrats
supported by heavy tax bills.
But community co-operation
seems to be as much apart of the
past in Canada as the horse and
buggy. When was the last time
you heard about a group of
volunteers doing something in
your community? Such instances
arc so few and farm between
these days that it is real
human -interest news when such a
project is undertaken, Today, if
we want something, we don't
think about all pitching in to get
it, we think of demanding the
government to provide it (and
then of course we complain about
the high taxes).
In the days of statuatory
labour, everybody pitched in to
keep the roads in good shape.
Today, we can't even get people
to keep the walks shovelled in
front of their , own homes but
instead demand that the local
council provide the sidewalk
cleaning service.
In the old days, we built our
own schools and collectively paid
for a teacher. Today we pay
millions of builders to construct
schools, pay fabulous salaries to
administrators to administrate
them, hefty rewards to trustees
who used to work for nothing and
pay good salaries to teachers and
what do we find? The students
out today are Tess likely to be able
to do simple things like read and
write and simple math than those
Ontario Hydro has more than
54,000 miles of distribution line to
serve its almmost 7000,000 rural
customers. The network provides
electricity to about 95 per cent of
the province's farms, including
many in remote northern areas.
kids in the one -room school.
They're whites though when it
comes to playing with expensive
gadgets like metal lathes and
computers,
But let's not get onto that
subject.
What I'm really getting at is
that the thing that made life in the
country so special is quickly
disappearing. We are now just
city people living in the country
but without the high incomes and
the big city facilities. The only
thing we have the city people
don't have is clean air.
1t used to be that one could live
in the country very inexpensively,
but not anymore. Taxes arc
getting ridiculous because every-
one wants the government to pay
for their pct project, This,
combined with the greed 01' the
ordinary man, the feeling that he
should be making 'more money
than anyone else, is leading this
country in a direction I, for one,
find frightening.
1 wish this country could make
up its mind whether it's going to
be capitalist or socialist. Right
now we seem to be in the middle
and getting the worst of both
systems. I'd prefer to go back to
the capitalist system and make it
work.
We tend to think of capitalism
as a bunch of big operators on
Bay Street manipulating the rest
of us. Unfortunately, there's a lot
of truth in that. But I still think we
ordinary people can make the
system work by working together.
Remember when the co-operative
movement was new and exciting:
when all sorts of co-operative
ventures such as cheese factories,
creameries and feed stores were
being set up. The credit union
system was also a form of
co-operative action.
The co-operative movement is
still strong, of course, but it
seems to have stagnated. We just
don't see many new co-operatives
being formed though the ones
that have been around for several
years seem to be getting
stronger.
The co-operative movement, i
still think, can be the answer to
many of the problems we have in
small towns. By taking co-opera-
tive action we can get many of the
things we don't have in our towns
today. Fewer and fewer indivi-
duals are willing to put up the
capital to go into business for
.. themselves. By forming co-opera-
tive we can all give a little of the
needed capital and hire someone
to run the business we need. We
could use co-operative action to
provide needed housing, to build
small factories to process locally -
produced goods and provide
employment; to provide shopping
facilities we don't have but feel
we need.
This combined with some
community action to provide
recreational facilities etc. instead
asking the local council for
everything, could put us hack on
the right path in our small towns
giving us at the sank time a
richer life style and lower tax
burden. We need to rethink and
re -organize. If we do, perhaps we
can be the leaders oI' a new
movement away from socialism
rather than being at the tag end of
0 movement toward It.
