In a continuing effort. to promote the use of
conservation tillage systems throughout
Huron. County, the Huron Soil and Water
Conservation District, in co-operation with
the Huron Soil and Crop Improvement
Association, is developing a list of peopple
who have conservation tillage and planting
equipment which they would be willing to
make available to other farmers.
The Equipment Availability List is being
developed in an attempt to compile a ready
reference of farmers who will make equip-
ment available to others,,whether on a ren-
tal basis, custom basis, or cost-sharing ar-
rangement.
This will allow persons interested in using
a piece of equipment the opportunity to try it
on their farm, their soil, and their residue
and management system without the large
capital expense involved in a direct pur-
chase of this equipment.
The equipment sharing concept may also
allow the purchaser a piece of equipment
(ie. chisel plow) to justify the initial cost as
it will be used over a larger acreage than his
own, and it may generate income for him
from the associated rental fees.
Custom operators will also be compiled
who are interested in such conservation
tillage or planting operations as custom
chisel plowing, no -till planting, soil -saving
ridge planting or ridge forming.
If you are interested in having your name
added to the Conservation Equipment
Availability File, please contact Robert
Traut at the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture
and Food office in Clinton, at 482-3428 or 1-
800-265-7044.
Among those on hand to hear Ontario Treasurer Larry Grossman in Exeter, Friday,
were former Ontario treasurer Charlie MacNaughton and his wife, Addle.
Bryan Smith, right, PC candidate for the Huron—Middlesex riding, enjoys a light moment
being sharedby Ontario Treasurer Larry Grossman and Clinton residents Ken and Don-
na Wood following the party's meet -the -candidate Hight in Exeter, Friday.
Nomination meeting turns into PC wake
EXETER - What had been scheduled as
an election rally turned out to bemore of an
old-fashioned wake at the South Huron rec
centre, on October 19.
With good food, good drinks and about 250
good Progressive Conservative friends on
hand, Ontario Treasurer Larry Grossman
led in the lamentations and eulogy for the
"departed".
The departed in this case was Premier
William Davis, whose surprise retirement
announcement came at the time he was fully
expected to call a general election. That put
a bit of a damper on the Friday proceedings
which had been planned as an election
campaign event for Huron -Middlesex riding
candidate Bryan Smith.
While Grossman was broad in his hints
that he would be a candidate for the
leadership of the party, he left that directly
unstated during the apparent period of
mourning in which the contenders have
engaged.
In urging the party faithful to continue
patronage of the bar to increase tax
revenue, Grossman said he plans to be
treasurer "or something else" after the next

election.
He said he was among the majority
caught completely off guard by the
Premier's retirement announcement on
Thanksgiving Day, saying there was no
moment . he would recall more vividly,
despite the varied highlights of his nine
years in political life.
"These were sad moments for us," he
said, reporting that Davis had made the
announcement at the point of tears and in a
shaking voice.
"This wasfar more than a colleague
saying goodbye, it was a close friend," the
Treasurer explained.
Continuing in his eulogy, Grossman
described the Premier as a man of
compassion with a sense of fair play and an
understanding of the needs and demands of
all the people in the province.
While admitting that the resignation will
create a difficult time for. the nasty. the
speaker said that Davis has demanded that
each member get on with the renewal and
shaping of the new era in the traditionally
smooth exchange of power between old and
new leaders of the party which has ruled On-
tario for 41 years under four premiers.
Turning his attention to fulfilling the role
for which he had ' been initially engaged,
Grossman said that Smith was one of the
many examples of the qualified people who
havebeen selected at nomination meetings
for the PCs.
It was noted that in ridings not held by the
government, the PC nominations have
attracted large crowds and the candidates
have not just been "thrown in at the .last
moment" as tokens in the election which has
now been delayed..
"They are superb candidates like the man
you've picked to carry the colors," the
diminutive politician said, adding that it is
up to the voters of Huron -Middlesex to
choose whether they want to be part of
molding the policy and strategy of the future
or to be content with sitting on the opposition
benches tossing out criticisms.
"We want to put the riding back where it
once was," he challenged, urging voters to
"join us in that great voyage through Bryan
Smith".
Grossman said during his speech he'd be
willing to bet on the outcome of the next
election, notwithstanding the opinions of
Liberal MPP Jack Riddell that a vote for
Smith would not ensure the riding would
have a member on the side of the
government.
It was the only foray into any political
bantering in the address which kept the
audience sitting on their hands in keeping
with the atmosphere of a.wake.
The most controversial topic of the night
appeared to centre around the number of
pieces of pie eaten by Smith's campaign
manager, fellow Lucan resident Mert
Culbert.
In a brief 'comment, Culbert said that
Smith "may be squirrelly, but he's a
winner".
The candidate advised that he has been
enthused by the support shown him to date
and he has met many people who share his
dedication and desires for the PC party in
the riding.
Riding. .president Tom Jasper lauded
Smith's ability and cited his potential to be a
hard worker who will get to Queen's Park.
The Goderich man also noted that the next
six months will be an interesting time for the
party with the leadership race and Smith's
campaign.
The PC association hopes to attract as
many of the leadership hopefuls as possible
to the riding before the January convention.
