Improper care in storage and cooking of the fruit or vegetables may decrease the amount of the vitamin it contains. Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) makes an important contribution to total health by aiding in bone, cartilage, teeth and gum development. While daily requirements depend on age, most of us need 30 mg daily. Children aged six and under require 20 mg. One-half cup of any of the following is aro excellent source of vitamin C, as each contributes at least 15 mg or one-half of an adult's daily requirement. Fruit: Vitaminized apple juice, grapefruit or. juice, orange or juice, strawberries, rasp- berries, tangerines, canta- loupe and watermelon. Vegetables: Broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, tomatoes or juice, turnip, spinach, potato (sweet or white), green pepper. To keep Vitamin C losses at a minimum, vegetables and fruits must be stored in a cool place and cooked properly. Rather than peeling, leave vegetables in their skins as often as possible and cook in small amounts of boiling water only until they are tender. Soaking vegetables in water, adding soda, or reheating causes a considerable loss of this precious vitamin. After January's discussions at Huron County Council concerning wolves and deer, three representatives of the Ministry of Natural Resoiurces attended the February session of county council. They were Rene Jones, district biologist; Herb Clark, recreation supervisor; and Roy Bellanger, predator control officer. Huron County councillors wanted the facts about deer and wolves here, but much of the news they received was not all that well accepted, For instance,Jones told council that in his opinion, there were between 2,000 and 3,000 deer in the county. Reeve Anson. McKinley, Stanley, disagreed. "I would think there's not anything like that many deer in the county, argued McKinley. "I would say there were more , hunters than there were deer." By way of explanation, Jones told McKinley that in the Bruce Peninsula, where there is a deer season every year, not many deer are visible. "I've spent two hunting seasons there and have .yet to see a deer," Said Jones. "But they take a lot of deer there every year." The numbers of deer' in the county are estimated by other means, Jones said. Road kills, for instance, is a valid indicator. In• 1970, 13 -deer were reported killed on the roads in Huron but in 1973, the number had more than doubled at 30. Deer tracks also are a reliable calculator when estimating population in Huron. Bellanger said that in Hay and Stanley Rev. Ray Lindsay of Monkton, the Audio-Visual Convener, was pleased to report that the Resource Centre in Main St. United Church, Mitchell, is being used by many Churches. The Centre has a supply of film-strips, tapes, and printed resources that United Churches in the Presbytery may borrow free of charge. Rev: Lindsay urged more congregations to use this material. A number of local people will be representing our area at the United Church's highest Court, General Council, when it meets in Guelph, August 18 to 24. Elected as delegates were Rev. Doug Warren of Crediton and Mr. Joe Snider of Goderich. Also nominated to be placed on a list of possible delegates were: Mrs. Cora Thistle, St. Pauls; Mrs. S.E.Argyle, Goderich; Mrs. -Ruth Shier, Kirkton; Rev. Don Beck, Hensall; Rev. Rae Grant, Listowel; and Rev. Don Deas, Mitchell. Good seeds give gardens head start If you're planning to grow your next flower or vegetable garden from seed, be sure to buy your seed from a reputable seedsman, advises Dave Sangster, horticultural specialist with the, Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. Check that seed stock at gardening outlets has been ,tored under proper conditions. If you must store your seed for a few days before planting, remember that seeds are living things, requiring a relatively moist atmosphere and moderate temperatures. A commercial soil-less mix is a good choice as a germination Medium, Such mixes often contain peat moss, vermiculite and perlite, as well as a small amount of fertilizer. Morever, they do hot require sterilization. Seeds for many annuals, such as tomato and petunia, -earl be sown either by carefully scattering -the seed over the surface of the growing' medium or by dropping it in rows, After covering the seed with about one-quarter inch of soib.less mix, Moisten the area thoroughly with tepid water. Cover the containers with plastic to -ensure a warm, hurnid environment for gerinination. The newly seeded containers should be placed in yarn' location. After the Seedlings have appeared ; petit-tit them' to grow for two to three Weeks -before transplanting to larger cOtitainets. Townships, the home territory of Reeve McKinley, there• are many deer. "Just walk the river fiats," Bellanger told McKinley. "There are more deer than you think." Bellanger went On to say that there is illegal hunting going on in this area of the county as well as other districts. The last deer season was in 1971 when 566 hunters spent 800 days in the field. They saw 200 deer, shot at 100 and harvested 51. Ministry officials felt there were "sufficient deer in Huron to, warrant a season", They suggested a season for archers from October 29 to November 25 or a gun season from November 11 to 13. - Officials said it would permit hunters to take deer legally and would provide "recreation for a segment of the population". "Who causes the - most damage? asked Deputy - reeve Gerry Ginn, Goderich Tovinship. "The deer or the hunters?" Ginn was told the only'way for farmers to keep hunters off their land was to post signs which may be seen from any point of entry. Most courteous hunters ask permission before entering a farm, however. Council learned that the Ministry has the authority to announce a deer season, but added that in most cases, the approval of ' the municipalities involved is desirable. Council registered no further opposition to the proposal. The conversation then switched, to wolves. Here again, council was surprised to learn that in the opinion of the Ministry officials, Card Party . The Majestic Women's Institute held a card party in the Brussels Library on Monday evening with eight tables in play. A pleasant social evening was enjoyed by those present with .the following winners: High Lady, Mrs. Beatrice Cardiff; High Man, John Rowland; Low Lady, Mrs. 'Carl Hemingway; Low Man, Bruce McCall. Lunch was served by, the committee in charge. - Get more on deposits Even your chequing account draws interest at Victoria and Grey. That means your money earns you more here with no minimum balance.

A Task Force will be set up to study needs in this area and report at the next meeting. Rev. Doug Warren, of Crediton, the Chairman, opened the day-long meeting by intro- ducing a new venture in worship conducted by Rev. Rae Grant of Listowel. Members viewed portions of the film, To Sir With Love, starring Sidney Portier. Following this, they discussed how to bridge communication gaps among people. The bridging of geographical gaps was realized as Rev. Warren in beginning the business portion of the meeting introduced four members of the Lambton Pr csbytery Executive who were guests for the day. The visiting clergy were, Alymer. Smith, Murray Campbell, Clifford Park and. Lloyd Stapleton. The new London Conference Personnel Officer, Rev. August Meacham was present and spoke briefly about his "ministry to Ministers", in southwestern Ontario: He noted that he had been spending a lot of time in Huron-Perth, having called on most United Church clergy. He ,then answered questions raised on: the settlement of Ministers, confidentiality, how inflation affects retired clergy, and the chaismatic movement. In other business it was learned that Mr. Murdock Morrison, Lay Supply at Varna. for 13 years, Mr, Alfred Fry, Lay Supply at Auburn for 6 years, and Rev. George Sach, Minister in Gorrie for 7 years, would be retiring at the end of June this year.. Mr. Morrison has built his own home in Varna and will retire there. Rev. .Sach, a former Moravian. Missionary in Labrador expects to retire in London. It seems as if the Church too is suffering from inflation. Rev. Don Deas of Mitchell, Stewardship Division Chairman, revealed this in releasing the final total for contributions to the Mission And Service Fund of the United Church in 1973. lie praised congregations for passing the National objective of $11,500,000. But he also said that even though this was a 6% increase over last year, inflation gave a net loss of 3,81°70. Total amount given by Charges in Presbytery to the Fund in 1973 was $272,272, United Church Minist ers Were promised some financial help in the battle against inflation when it Was announced that General Council has recointnended at least an 11% increase for 1915 minimum salaries, The rnittimuni base for 104 $OW, In 1973 it will be 006 repotted the Secretary, Rev, Detwyti Docken of Walton.
