County Aid to hospitals
A meeting was held on Tuesday at the
Court House of tbe committee of the
county council appointed to look into the
qpestion of county assistance to hospitals
and g report for presentation to the Dec
ember season of the council was partially
prepared, The need of hospitat accorn-
modation in various parts of the county is
being felt more and more and the county
council are coming to be seized of the
necessity for increased contributions from
the county treastiry, and it is safe to pre-
dict that the recommendation from the
committee will be in favor of a substantial
grant to county hospitals. The commit-
teeconsisteof the Wardell and Countill.
ors Livingstone, Hackett, Cutt, Bison
and Petty. This committee attended
the meeting of the Medical Association
of the county in Winghant recently and
heard what the iissociation had to say on
the subject, and the Medical Association
was repreeetted at the meeting on Tufts
ay and Dr. Macklin addressed the com-
mittee. Is is likely that a grant will be
recoxnxnended, to be dieided, probably in
proportion to the met the various towns
can show, Tho if Goderich can show a
hospital meet of say $15,000; Wingham
05,000; Clinton, $12,000, Reeler and
Seaforth $8,000 each, the grant would be
rilvtded in that proportion. We under-
stand recommeedation as to grants for

THE CLEVELAND TRACTOR
Arrangements have been completed with
the Department of Agriculture of the
Province of Quebec whereby they will
distribute Cle-trac tractors exclusively for
us to the farmers of Quebec.
In announcing the Cle.trac Tractor as
the only tractor recommended by the De-
partment of Agriculture of the province
of Quebec, the Cle-trac again. proves its
superiority over all other tractors manu-
factured. The Department of Agriculture
have spent the entire season making an
exhaustive test on their Experimental
Farms of various makes of tractors and
decided upon the Cle-trac entirely upon
its performance and economy of operation.
It is estimated by the Honorable Jos.. De
Caron, Provincial Minister of Agriculture
that a minimum of 15,000 Ce-tracs will be
placed in the province of Quebec during
the next three years which is the life of
the agreement entered into between this
company and the Department of Agricul-
ture.
This is the tractor which is sold by Mr.
L. feennedy, Wingham, and the same as
the one used by Messrs Tipling & Mills.
