For 25 years, Pride corn has been grown, processed• and distributed to Canadian growers, but last fall we dropped the name Pride Hybrid in favor of King Grain it simplified things. Growers already know us for King Brand seed which are available through your local seed dealer so it made sense to join everything together. • And this year it's business as usual. You can make• a one-stop shopping call for all your seed needs and at the same time find out • about Perth barley, a brand new six-row. spring barley Which has everything going-for it= high yields, disease resistance, standability and soon. Remember now, when you hear someone talk about King Grain or mention Pride corn you'll khow you're at the right place. .Two heads are better thanx•ne. King Grain Limited P.O.

Mr. Joynt said that he was expecting approval of the Sawmill property for housing development and that there was interest by some in building a few' homes in that location. Regarding sanitation, he said that the village was seeking approval of a • piece of land directly south, of the ,Kinloss Dump; and if the Ministry of the Environment gave approval, this would 'solve the problem of establishment of a new dump site.

Mr, Joynt gave , a fine presenta- tion on the various departments in Lucknow'S municipal structure. The Village's debenture situation is very favourable.

Total cost .of the bridge was $93,000. $11,000 balance is' owing. The watefworks debenture of $12,000 will mature in July 1977: $1500 is still owing.

One mill represents 'about 17000. , Mr. Joynt spoke of the steadily increasing • costs of buying hydro power for the local, utility. • In September of this year, the local utility was showing a' surplus, but in previouS cost increases, 'the local utility couldn't ,get Permission to raise local rates until long after the rates from the hydro source _of power had been raised 'to the village. This'put the local utility in a deficit position which could not be avoided. • • Mr. Joynt warned the purchasers of lots and development' land in the village to first check out the costs of servicing as the land owner would be responsible for paying 100% of the cost of hydro and water services to their property. The Reeve pointed out that Lucknow's water supply' is eicel- lent with the well . scheduled to, serve double the present popula- tion of the village. Speaking on road projects, Reeve Joynt spoke of the difficulty in securing money from the province during "tight money'', periods, thus the 'road programs in recent years hive - been curtailed. , With the Canning Street bridge at $93,000 and the Bob Street Culvert at $30,000, both unexpect- ed blit necessary expenditures,. this left very little money for capital expenditures, The Havelock Street South bridge was constructed at over $80,000 and both bridges were financed over a two year term. With only $7500 left for construe tion this year, the money was transferred to maintenance.. Mr. Joynt has been assured that funds would be available in 1977 for construction. Mr. Joynt spoke of needed work on Havelock Street South, Inglis Street, Outram, Rose and Hamilton Street. A major rebuilding and drainage program is badly needed in the Inglis-Outram Street area.
