LAY PLANS TO EXPAND
. FARM POND PROGRAMI
theAn executive meeting of
Satigeen Valley Conservation Au
thority was held in Walkerton
last week, with Chairman Irwin
Lobsinger presiding. /
A budget for 1953 was. drawn
up, amounting to $24,168.00.- One-
half of this amount, it is hoped;
will ibe forthcoming in Provincial
Government grants. $10,000 Of
this amount will be spent on the
purchasing of land for reforesta
tion. $4,000 was allocated to the
Land Use Committee, as it whs
"felt^KarthP “Farm~Pdnd^rogram-
shoulcl be expanded this year.
A letter was read from A. A.
McTavish of Teeswater, asking
for ’assistance in finishing the
park in that town, and* the Re-
,• creation Committee has . been
asked to. contact the. officials of
Teeswater Park to see what asJ
sistance the Authority could give
in preserving the natural beauty
of the area. x _ , ; ...
A certain? company has been
attempting io procure gas and
-dil^r-ights-leases--on_lands_:in_JC>sx:
prey Township, recently bought
by the Authority, and at Wed
nesday night’s meeting, a motion
was passed which recommended
that no property owned by the
Authority be leased -to any com
pany wishing such leases. It was
felt that if such property were
leased at this time^ the impress
sion might be created that , such
properties were bought by the
Authority for that purpose, and
not for conservation, as suggest
ed at the time of purchase'. „
