Michael Schmidt of Glencolton Farms, an unpasteurized milk co-operative in the town of Durham, said the Ministry of Natural Resources and West Grey police showed up with a search warrant "I don't know why, but they are taking dairy equipment, computers, everything. They are just bringing out stuff," Schmidt said. "I'm not going to back down" Schmidt and his lawyer, Karen Selick, said they hadn't had time to review the warrant.

Libraries and food banks collaborating on Foods for Fines All 12 branches of the Huron County Library will be participating in the pop- ular 'Food for Fines' program from October 11 to 17 this year. During this week, all branch loca- tions will accept non-perishable food items in place of cash for overdue library fines. This project is offered through the Huron County Library in partnership with the Huron County Health Unit and local food banks. It is timely that Food for Fines coincides with the International Day for the Erad- ication of Poverty on October 17. The ten food banks in Huron assist over 1,500 people (singles, families, chil- OFFICE 519-482-3400 1 Albert Street, Clinton www.rlpheartland.ca dren) on a monthly basis. 'Food for Fines' also gives library users a chance to clear their record, return overdue materials, and support local food banks. During the program, fines for items are waived on a one to one ratio; it's simply one item of food for each item overdue. All donations through this program are redistributed to food banks within Huron County.
