That's why the Ontario Real Estate Association is once again sponsoring Private Property Week, Oc- tober 2 -10, under the theme "Your Home is Your Castle ... Let's Keep It That Way!" Government- regulation often restricts property owners' rights to buy, sell, lease, develop, or renovate their own property. Major examples of expensive over- regulation of property can be found in expropriation pro- blems (such as Pickering airport), floodplain mapp- ing and the Niagara Escarp- ment Act. Private Property Week is designed to heighten public awareness of property restrictions across Ontario. Information will be made available to the majority of Ontario's citizens through the facilities of the 48 local real estate boards in municipalities across the province. Many boards are holding open houses or pro- viding informational ex- hibits at local shopping malls or other public access locations. Further information' on Private Property Week will follow in future weeks. Sincerely, Barrie Doyle, Director of Communications, OREA. Avonton barn burns MITCHELL -A fire which broke out after 9 p.m. on August 22, destroyed Bruce Aitcheson's barn just east of Avonton. Sebringville Fire Chief Allen Brander estimated the damage at about $85.000. The fire was first noticed by Mr. Aitcheson's neighbor, Darren Murray of RR 2 St. Pauls when he was on his way home from a ball game. He immediately went to the Aitcheson farmhouse and alerted his neighbor and the two men ran to the barn to remove some items. The cattle in the barn escaped when the doors were opened though about 50 chickens were lost in the fire. Firemen from the Sebringville department found they could do nothing to save the barn when they arrived at the farm so they concentrated on preventing the fire from spreading and from damaging the silos. As firemen battled the huge blaze, about 100 neigh- bors looked on without being able to help. Firemen remained at the site until about 2 a.m. The fire destroyed some hay and a bail elevator. Chief Brander said that the spontaneous combustion may have been the cause of the fire but said he could not be certain. The barn was insured but Mr. Aitcheson said he ex- pects the insurance won't cover all of his losses from the fire. 0 FARM MARKET Tomatoes Pick -Your -Own or Readi-Picked Call ahead for large orders OPEN WEEK DAYS TILL 9 P.M.
