ew Plan
A substantial majority of
Huron County egg producers,
who voted last week on setting
up a provincial egg marketing
board, are in favor, a prelim-
inary study of results Indicat-
ed.
According to Robert Broad -
foot, Brucefield, district direc-
tor of the Ontario Poultry Pro-
ducers' Association, of he 202
votes in Huron, 141 favored the
proposal, and 59 were opposed.
There were two spoiled ballots.
This represents a favorable per-
centage of 70.5.
Mr. Broadfoot said that while
there was no way of determin-
ing the actual number in the
county eirtitled to vote, the
vote cast represented 260;000
hens, 'Since recent statistics in-
dicated there were 740,000 hens
in Huron, it could be assumed
perhaps` the number of votes
cast would represent about a
third of the producers.
The vote in Huron was much
higher than generally across
Ontario, when less than 10% of
the estimated 30,000 producers
voted.
A total of 68.4% of those
voting favored a board, , said
Herbert Arbuckle, vice-chair-
man of the. Ontario Farm Pro-
ducts Marketing Board. Agri-
culture Minister William Stew-
art said earlier that a board
would be set up if 66 2/3 per
tent or more voted in favor.
The unofficial count, based on
telephone calls and letters from
Agriculture Department repre-
sentatives, showed 1,953 voting
yes and 902 no. The official
count is expected later this
week when all results have
been mailed -in," Mr, Arbuckle
said. It will likely be close to
the unofficial figures, Allan
Wedow, president of the Poul-
try Producers',Association, said.
Mr. Wedow noted the vote
was light, but Mr. Stewart had
not specified , any minimum
number of voters, but only that
66 2/3 per cent vote in favor.

Water Aids
New Trees
Nearly 200 trees have been
planted along Seaforth • boule-
vards during recent months.
The trees replace others that
were lost following sewer and
street work, or which have died
in recent years.
Commenting on the tree re-
placement program, town fore-
man Harold Maloney said in
most cases' the trees are doing
well. He pointed out, however,
that in hot weather particular-
ly, neighboring' property own-
ers could assist by watering the
young trees, "A little bit of
water every, day will do won-
ders in givieg the trees a good
start," he said.

out of Dublin. On Tuesday he
prepared for his last map. He
retires July
Sworn in on July 1, 1924, by
the late James Jordan, who
then was Dublin postmaster, Mr.
Burns began a career that vias
to take him. across Hibbert
Township on more_than 12,000
trips. There were. 55 patrons
when he began, and now there
are 85. The route has grown
from 16 nines to 26, as exten-
sions have been added through
the years, to provide better
service.
But more than patrons and
miles have increased.
"Lots of times there woulshi,t
be more than half a dozen let-
ters all week," Mr. Burns said,
as he recalled the trips, of 30
and 40 years ago. "PeOple
didn't have the money, They
weren't sending away money
orders buying things, •and they
weren't getting government
cheques every month either,"
he said.
"Many of the patrons on the
route today are .newcomers to
Canada during the past fifteen
years, and they have relatives
in their home countries. That
means more letters andpar-
eels," he added.
RETIRING THIS WEEK after 40 years' service'as courier
on RR 2, Dublin, Frank Burns prepares mail for the last time
on Tuesday. He was sworn in July 1, 1924. (Expositor photo

charges were laid under the
Liquor Control Act. and 23 un-
der the Criminal Code. With
the exception of few charges
still pending, convictions were
secured in , each case, Chief

role in highway traffic enforce-
ment and resulted in about 80
charges of speeding.
Referring to the holiday aea-
eon, Chief Hulley suggested that
homeowners, before leaving on
holidays, advise the pdlice de-
partment, so that special checks

There used to be lots of trop-

For a number of years Mr..
Burns used a car in the sum-
mer and horses in the winter.
Since 1950 he has used a car
all year round.
His first car was a Model T,
which he bought secondhand
from the late J. F. Daly in Sea -
forth in 1926. It had been driv-
en by the late Thomas McIVIiI-
Ian, M.P., who had traded it in
on a new ear. "Darned good
car it was too," Mr. Burns com-
mented.
His next car was a Model T
Ford coupe, which had been
owned by Father Dantzer,. of
St. Columban, and which he
described as the best car he
ever drove.
"No matter 'how cold it was,
it always worked."
In 1941 he bought a second-
hand, Chev, which. he drove for
11 yars, when it registered' a
total of 322,000 Miles, and still
ran "pretty good".

during all the years he served
the people' of ,RR 2; Dublin, he
never got into any serious emu-
enents. "I have to'have my first
bad word on the road yet," he
said. He has never had an
accident while driving himself
on the route.
