Select hogs for low fat
The' goal of pork pfbducers
Is to get as many dollars as poss-
' for each pig marketed. One
, of the most effective ways to do
this is to market pigs with lov,
backfat thickness. Such a pig
will grade well and give the
highest returns, says J G.
Norrish, swine' specialist, •
A pig with low backfat thick-
ness must come from parents
with the same trait. Therefore
selection must take place for
parenti with low backfat thick-
ness. Researchers have found,
says Mr. Norrish, that it Is
easier to increase backfat than
It is to reduce it. Selection Is
about 50% effective in increasing
backfat , thickness and 40%
effective in redu'cing backfat.
Without selection, however, there
is no improvement. As the
consumer demand for lean meat
increases, farmers who are now
using a selection program will
'benefit in the future

At a Meeting Monday night
the Huron-Perth County Roman
Catholic School Board, concern-
ed about its liability in the case
of an. accident, voted to prohibit
the use of Its property on Willow
Street, Stratford, in the Devon
subdivision as a playground* for
area' children unless an agree-
ment is signed by the Devon Park
ratepayers in n days.
Previously at a board meeting
on May 23, • Robert Smith, 390
Willow Street, an alderman in
Stratford, on behalf of these rate-
It• payers had requested permission
to use the ,property (3.6 acres)
for a few years until the Board is
prepared to build 'a school on it.
The Board granted the re-
quest and a letter of agreement
was sent• to Mr. Smith for sign- . ing. However, Mr. Smith, not
• wanting to be personally res-
ponsible for a group of ratepay-
ers not yet officially organized,
refused be sign it.
Trustee Joseph Looby of Dub-
lin said "I 'm not happy unless
, someone _signs this agreement."
Board chairman, JarrieaMor-
,,..,;,- r.ls .of Stratford -said, "we 'are ,
willing. to let them use it as a,
playground. we just want the
agreement Signed."
Jack Lane, Business Admiri-
istrator, said sixteen families
in the area had contributed to
buy playground equipment for
• 'their children, but that now child-
ren from other areas of the city
are coming in. "This is part of
the dilemma in the agreement not
being signed." He said he be-
lieved the ratepayers would or-
ganize officially.
'The Board voted eight to five
• to install a portable classroom at
St. Joseph's School at Kings-
bridge to free a claSsroom for
the kindergarten'class which for
the past four years has been ac-
comodated on the stage of the
gymnasium. • This decision re-
sulted from a presentation to the
• board by supporters from the
school at the July 10 meeting
when the kindergarten situation
was explained and the substand-
ard conditions outlined.
The portable is to be rented,,
at a cost of $2,500 per,year and
to be installed by September 1
or as soon after as possible.
At present there are 12 students
in the Kindergarten and in Sept-
ember there will be nine start-
ing.
Mr. Lane reported the com-
pletion of details in the purchase
of the 208 Queen Street prqperty
in Stratford to enlarge the Ifh-
maculate Conception playground
and that as soon as the deed was
received the P rope rty C Orn mittee
would call' for tenders for the
demolition of the house. Mr.
Morris said an extension would
hive to be made for demolition
• of the building on September 1
to October.
The Board granted permis-
Sion to the City of Stratford to
use the separate schools for poll-
ing places for the upcoming mun-
icipal election.'
The Board refused a request
from a solicitor for Miss Edith
Robinson that she be allowed to
have a fence built three feet in
on the school property adjacent
to her property at 218 Queen

to my neighbour I founcithe house
I wanted. LaSt month I bought
a car. Once again my neighbour
advised that Honest Harry had. a
100 sedan for $1,900 and Smilin'
Sam had a large selection of
cars to choose from. I" needed
a home for a dog which refused
to be housebroken. Again my
neighbour came to the rescue
and found a home for it. I must
admit, when I want to either sell
or get rid of something my
neighbour is a big help.
My wife also loops forward
to my neighbour's weekly visits.
He always ho-ercany subjects of
interest to her; such as weddings,
recipes and even remarks to
make about raising children. He
also keeps' my wife informed as
to whit's on at the local theatre
and Where she can go for enter-
tainment.
My neighbour doesn't miss
much. For example; "there was,,
a big American Caddy at Mrs.
Van Snoot's down the street last
week. My neighbour informed
me that it belonged to her
brother-in-law up from
Chattanooga for the week-end.
When I asked about poor old
Mrs. Barton, my -neighbour told
me that she died yesterday and
the funeral service will be held
on Monday.
When I inquired about Mrs,
Hubbard being as big as a house,
my neighbour informed me that
she had twins last Tuesday,.

Reporting for the Building
and Maintenance Committee,
Trustee Vincent Young ofGoder-
ich reported on asphalting, etc.
being carried out at the various
separate schools in Huron and
Perth. He received permission
for his committee to go ahead
and have 'signs put on all the
schools—Unauthorized Persons
and' Vehicles Prohibited. He
said his committee felt these
signs were •necessary, not to
keep out children playing on the
grounds when the schools were
closed , but others such as snow-
mobile operators. This will en-
able the police to enforce the
rules.
Mr. Vincent reported that
seven bids had been received to
supply No 2 fuel oil to the eleven
schools heated by this method
and that the lowest had been ac-
cepted, that of Ross Scott, Bruce-
field, at a cost of 16:3 cents per
gallons
Trustee Arthur Held, RR 4,
Listowel, made recommenda-
tions that , were approved by the
Board; that William 13aechler of
Zurich be appointed as full time
bus driver at St. Boniface School
in Zurich, and that Lee Regier
become a full time custodian at
the same ;school.
That the integration of trans-
portation services between the
Huron County Board of Education
be continued, serving area of
McKillop Township and parts ,of
Hullett and Morris Townships.
This integration has meant a sav-

He acknowledged that
weeklies are concerned mainly
with local and regional issues,
but said their personal
character should be preserved
and hopefully they are still one
of the best training grounds for
young journalists. Eveli though
communication was becoming
more electronic, weeklies would
still hold an important position.

"The heavy rainfall in the

tial", he stated. He noted that

• Minister of Agriculture.
Stewart has toured the area and
is aware of the problem, but Mr.
Gaunt is critical of the Ontario
Government's offer to match any.
funds raised locally. "Any funds
raised locally would just be
peanuts," he said, "and the
Federal Government is
hamstrung as they cannot inject
funds into the area unless the
Provincial Government declares
it a disaster area."
In addition, he called on the
Ontario Government to subsidize
transportation costs 'for hay
shipped from Western Ontario
to the East. "Thei hay is.avail-
able in the West, but the East-
ern, Ontario farmer cannot be
expected to bear the cost of
transportation.''
Mr. Gaunt indicated that
