"Our blessings far outweigh 'Our problems," Warden Ken- • neth Stewart, reeve of McKil- lop Township, remarked to the 36 other members and officials, press and public. There were no absentees. A bountifulharvest seems to be the making, he commented. People should be thankful to live in this area. Dr. R. M. Alois, director, pre- sented a report of Huron Coun- ty Health Unit. Mrs. Clare Mc- Cowan of the Children's Aid ro ems Society; Reeve Stewart Pro't- er> o s Township, :M rri of the Property Committee; Reeve Calvin Krauter, Brussels, of the Board of Health; and Reeve Donald McKenzie, Ashfield, of the Road Committee; Deputy Reeve Ebner Hayter, Stanley Township, of the Warden's and Personnel Committee. By request, the report of the Road Committee was considered and discussed clause by clause, County Engineer James W. Britnell piloting the document through committee of the whole council, with Deputy Reeve Everett Mcfwain, Goderieh Township, acting as chairman, at the suggestion of Warden Stewart. Seeks Help with Weeds Alex Chesney, county weed inspector, appealed to members of Huron County Council Mon- day afternoon, and to all resi- dents of the county, to let the authorities know the where- abouts of the noxious weed bar- berry. "We hope to get most of it cleaned up this year,'' he' said. Yellow rocket is also preval- ent, but this is not the time of year to control this weed, he said. Reeve Duff Thompson, Clin- ton, asked if the weed inspec- tor's duties included all proper- ties within the County of Hur- on. "Yes"; Mr. Chesney, replied. Reeve Thompson made no further comment. Reeve Grant Stirling, Goder- ich Township, queried if the campaign included leafy spurge: The Weed Insgector replied he was making crvery effort to have this looked after by mak- ing arrangements with some of the property owners. "I? have more spraying to do than I can handle at the present time." Reeve R. R. Jewell, Goderich, said he had bought a lot "full of twitch grass" and asked what he would do besides dig- ging it out. "Spray it I guess, the offic- ial answered.

Miles, HUr on agricultural representative, told members of Huron County Council Monday afternoon. . "Just this morning we get millions of Millipedes in a field of white beans which makes for, a ver, bad situation," he related. They . Were doing their 'best to cope with 'the. sit- uation. Mr.. Miles reported that props are looking -as well as for sometime, "although , in Huron we rarely know a failure." .He commented that recent legislation -.provides for interest= free loans whereby farmers make application to their bank. "However, very few in Huron County have taken •advantage of this," he said. Those who want to may insure their fall wheat. Crop insurance is en- tirely' voluntary. Mr. Miles stated that there is a trend• today toward more cash crops, which some people might consider a , way of life but • the growing" of livestock • is still very basic to Huron County. He reminded Council of the importance, of the International Plowing Match in October, and reported that more concessions had been signed up than .ever before. ,' VACATION N.
