Huron Decides Salaries Salaries of Huron County 'Engineer and Assistant were increased substantially at the June Session of .County Council. • County Engineer James W. Britnell. had his salary raised from $12,000 to $13,000' per year. •Assistant—County Engineer John A. More had his annual stipend increased from $6,000 to $6,500 per year, retroactive to January 1, 1966. ' In the case of the County Engineer, the Road .Committee had recommended in its report that the salary of this official be increased by $1,000 per year, in keeping with salaries paid for positions of compar- able responsibility throughout the Province. When the committee report was being discussed in council, the County Engineer volunteer- ed to leave the Council Cham- ber, but his offer was not ac- cepted by the members, and the clause carried without comment. Bylaw 47-66 'to adjust the sal- ary of the County Engineer, was passed with the following pro- cedure: that clause three of by- law 26-1956 he amended by striking out the figure $8,000 and substituting • the figure $13,000, so that clause should read: "The salary of the said Superintendent shall be the sum of $13,000 per annum, pay- ment in .equal monthly instal- ments." With regard to. the Assistant, the Warden's and Personnel Committee had recommended that .the salary of John More be increased to $6,500, effec- tive January 1, 1966, and sal- ary schedule bylaw be amended accordingly. Council passed bylaw 49-66 to amend bylaw 31-1964: 1. That salary . of County Engineer be deleted from salary schedule bylaw; 2. That salaries of all employees of Health.,Unit be deleted. from salary schedule 'bylaw; 3. That salary of assis- tant to the Engineer be adjust- ed as follows: from minimum $4,700 and' maximum $6,000, to minimum $4,700 and maxi- mum $6,900, with increase of $500 effective January 1, 1966, thus making 1966 salary of $6,500. Gontrlbuttng• to increased costs, as far: as the county :tis conceenedt are suds 'matters -,es expenses of coroner, inctuests, county public litharies, county assessment commissioner sys- tem, and regional jails. "I would like to point out that 1967 is ,going• to be anoth- er year in which. our financing will possibly negegsitate an in- crease in the county rate," Mr. Berry stated., "It 'is too early to predict exactly what might happen but you should bear in mind the following problems. with which we will be faced; (1) an initial payment on de- benture issue •for the County Home ($5$,000 to $55,000); (2) increased cost of opera- ting new addition to County Home. (3) possibility of continued building programs as far as our Iota" hospitals are con- cerned. Continuing, the clerk -treasur- er pointed out that if there are no building plans for 1967, then the county would be able to divert some of this money for hospital reserve purposes, to the County Home debenture, assisting greatly in financing for the upcoming year. Mr. Berry stated that a fur- ther problem for future fin- ancing concernsthe situation at Centralia Air School. The county receives a considerable grant at the present time, off- set to some extent by costs of road maintenance, administra- tion of .justice, and welfare. Last year the grant was $11,562. In this regard, he favoured immediate actionto have it designated... as a "depressed area" for indu,strial purposes. The chances of someone keep- ing your secret are about 40 to 1 against you.

Plenty ofmoisture and warm weather have combin- ed to provide good growing conditions for corn. Chemical weed control may be advis- able in a number of corn fields: Some fields of beans have been broken up and reseeded as a result of the heavy rains last week. Localized cases of milli- pede, ' sllug and seed corn maggot damage have been found in white beans. It is unlikely that millipede and slug damage will be wide- spread; however, bean grow- ers should be on the lookout for seed corn maggot infest- ations. Winter wheat is. out in head in most areas of the county. CALF CLUB The Seaforth Calf CIub met at the farms of Con Eckert and Joe Devereaux on Monday.
