There will be eight new faces on council next year. _thititi the EPA group would hesitate to disreg ard a recommenda- tion by the present council, Vock said he thinks they will come to their own decision on the matter. Reeve Elsie Karges, a member of the Executive and Property Committee said her golAl; AO the Negotiating' Committee arrived at the, nine' percent figure after careful consideration. "I know Some members of council were uncomfortable with the size of the. increase but we did arrive at it after a lot of thought," she said. Reeve George Wicke, El- liceopposed the iecommen- dation. " .v "I don't want it misinter- preted. I wasn't against the nine per cent increase- the money being spent- I was opposed to the nine per cent across the board -where by people at the top get nine per cent and peope at the bottom get nine per cent. which makes a difference in dollars. and cents," said Wicke: Reeve Richard Thompson, Elam, supported Wicke. He said the actual dollar in- creases would vary between $1516 and 5616. Thompscin suggested equal dollar increases for all employees. . • lie said the balance be- tvveen such an increase and . the percentage increase sug. gested by the committee could be divided between employees, This could be clone if More adjustments ,are needed to bring employ- ees Whges in line with other counties. In effect, this,would nar- row the gap between highly paid andllower paid employ- ees, said Thompson.. Reeve Rae Bender, Wal- lace, said -the issue will be a difficult one for the future council. He hop es Thomp- son:Hs iitsle at hweiollryisg be consriet.redit seems this whole .country is getting out of balance.

Reeve Wilfred Tuer, Downie,. a member of the Executive and Property Com- mittee said although aver- ages may not be good criteria to iivork with, "in no case in our sata,t$ Iiukot,,teuts did we ever come up to the average of the ten counties surroundin,g ,us." Council voted. 10-4 in favor of the recommendation. ' The coternittee also recom- mended a 25 per cent salary increase 'for • next, year's Warden. • Warden's expenses would be increased from $4400 to $5500 per year. ' "I think we must leave some honor with this job, - said Bender. Vock said, "I think ' the executive's feeling is that the price of gas going the way it is, maybe the increase was not enough. The warden does do a lot of driving • th reu gh fri Centin "However, I do not th'nk,- tny of us as wardens are out to make a profit. We wanted to have the privilege and honor of serving the county for that year," said Vock. Council agreed to recom- mend the wage increase.

OPEN WED THUM, FRL, IVENINGS 'FA By: COLLEEN MALONEY Complete weed control will never be achieved by spray- ing weeds once eachSeason, said Cyril Brown. Perth County Weed Inspector. Brown told perth County Council that this year's spraying was done in June and early July. "1 suggest next year we go after our worst weed which is the -milkweed. This means delaying our spraying until a later date." he said'. Three separate sprayings would 'be needed to get all sect's. said Brown. This year some roads in the north end of the county were mowed rather than sprayed. Brown said. one weed that may become a future pro- blem is the velvet leaf. While it has not been a problem so far. "the best we can do with this weed is delay it from becotning a serious problem at least fp- another few years." said Brown. There were two new weeds in Perth this year. Poison hemlock- the most poisonous weed there is -- was brought into the county . on alfalfa seed from the United States. The weed produced a scare that was blown out of proportion. said Brown. "We were on top of it right away," said Brown. "I am confident that by the end of 1981 we will be cid of it." The _poison hemlock was found on 16 farms in the county. The second weed was prosomillet. which is a very hard weed to control, said Brown. • The seed of prosomillet is ideal bird seed. Brown said he has been checking stores for bird seed that contains it. One surprising source of weeds is commercial dried flower arrangements. said Brown If you take a close look at dried flower arrtngernents you wilt find half of that pink is weeds," he said. Brown has found seeds of foxtails and wild oats in the arrangements. There is trouble ahead if 24D a ,controversial weed killer is banned. said Brown. "240 has always been a basic means of chemical weed control." he said. Brown also suggested having county jail inmates CUT the weeds. He said he has -contacted jail officials who agreed that sending out n� risk inmates' to do the work would be a good idea.<, Brawnsaid he has not acted further on the matter, pending council's approval, • The per ect Christmas gift is staring you right in the face!
