The County Councils of the Pro -
Vince are agitating the taking over
by the Provincial Government of the
:cost of maintaining roads. Of course
•everyone knows that no matter what
:body handles the money the actual
most conies out of the people; gov-
ernments, Dominion, Provincial,
County or Municipal, !have no money
,except «fiat they take from the peo'
PM in some form of taxes. Sonie-
tinies it would appear that people
eeeought what they got from the Gov-
••ernment was found money. But the
mare demanded from the Govern-
ment the more taxes will have to be
•collected to keep up the supply.
'Nevertheless it would seem to be
'more equitable to make the main-
tenance of public roads a public
`rather than •a Local debt, as roads
:are no longer local. Twenty-five
years ago mvihet are now known as
•aur highways were seldom used ev-
- en in the summer by other than local
people, there was very little general
traffic even up and down such an
old road as the•Huron, Highway No.
8. Those -taping a one or two hun-
dred mile drive in 'those days were
very few. Now it is far different.
Every day during the summer sea-
son cars from hundreds of miles dis-
tant go up and down that old thor-
• oughfare. Even in the winter the
demand is that it be kept sufficient-
ly clear of snow to allow of motor
`traffic, 'What would the'tateicipal-

Mother's . Allowance '
!County Clerk Holman gave an ac-
count of the workings of the Moth-
er's -Allowance during • part =of' the
year. There are at present 53 math--'
ers on the roll receiving allowances
ranging from $15 to $55 per month,
one half' of which is payable by the
Province of -Ontario. The total for
the month amounts to $1,695, of
which $84'7.50 ispaid by the county.
The amount is divided as follows:
1 mother. receiving $15,, 4 mothers
receiving .$20; S mothers -receiving
$25, 18 mothers receiving, $30; 11
Mothers receiving $35; 7 mothers re-
ceiving $40; 1 mother receiving $46;
1 mother receiving $50, 2 mothers re-
ceiving $55.
The number on the roll 'has, nit
changed materially in some years
ranging around 50 per year; the
number added each year being coun-
ter -balanced by the -number dropping
out through children becoming over
age, re -marrying, deaths and remov-
als, Causes of dependency are: Wid-
ow, incapacitation of husband, in-
sanity,,and desertion.
Mm, McLeod,` Agricultural Repre-
sentative, addressed the council on
the work of his office. Assistance
had been given farmers and he no-
ticed an improvement in live stock.
He said 76 per cent of loss to sheep
owners may be traced to parasites.
Hogs are in fairly good condition
and there is a good demand for welt
bred -stock. In farm labor, 36 sin-
gle men and 25 boys (mad been
placed. He advised a month's no-
tice when requesting help of this
kind through his office.
The junior work was especially
emphasized as accomplishing splen-
did results School fairs, junior in-
stitutes, junior farmers' judging
competition and trip to Royal Win-
ter Fair and public speaking ton -
bests were all contributing largely to
the promotion of the best in agricul-
ture.
Mr, NteKibbon. inquired about
keeping the rond open from Clinton

That more liberal facilities be
afforded those to get on the pension
