Drainage Case. --
Tee. Hay c-iwotsftip drainage case
was again given an airing in County
Gear: at Goderich last -week. Judge
Killoran reserving judgment after
hearing more than ten hours of arg-
ument from Frank Donnelly of God-
erich, and E. G. Thompson of Strat-
:ord. Since April. 1940, this case has
taken up .;even days of the courts
time, the claims involving less than
three hundred dollars. William P.
Alexander and Duncan Stewart, Hay
township farmers, are the plaintiffs
in the action against the Township
of Hay. They were signatories to a
petition in 1935 asking that a drain
be built through their farms and ad-
jacent properties, Although the drain
was surveyed and considerable eng-
ineering costs were incurred, it was
never built. After passing the neces-
sary bylaw the Township Council pro-
ceeded to assess the engineering
costs to the various properties. Alex-
ander refused to pay his share, $96,
and ultimately the amount was plac-
ed on the County tax arrears list and
sufficient of Alexander's chattels
were seized and sold to satisfy the
claim. He now seeks the return of
the $96 and 0125 damages for wrong-
ful seizure. Stewart paid his share,
$56, uader protest. He is now suing
to recover this amount. The plaintiffs
also are asking costs, and the legal-
ity of the entire procedure on the
part of the Township Council in con-
nection with the drain is at stake,

Farmers Advised to Secure
Millfeeds at Reduction of $3 Ton—
Farmers in Eastern Canada would
be well advised to secure at the re-
duction of $3 per ton which became
effective on July 15th, supplies of
milifeeds which they may require to
maintain production of milk and
other live stock products, states the
Dominion Department of Agriculture.
The reduced prices are $25 a ton for
bran, $26 for shorts and $29 for mid-
dlings in carlots to dealers at Mol-
treal rate points, with or without nn
accompanying order for flour. Ex-
ports are being licensed so as to in-
sure adequate supplies for Canadian
use at the reduced prices. If any
dealer finds difficulty in obtaining
supplies of millfeeds at the ['educed
prices Ile should at once advise the
Dominion Department of Agriculture,
Ottawa. This reduction in miltfeed
prices has been agreed to by the
milling Industry 0.s a neeessat'y mea-
sure its dealing with the emergency
caused by drought conditions its Ens -
tete Canada. While the reduction in
the inilifeeds prices does not repre-
sent the establishment of a definite
floor in tite millieed market, there la
tie reason to expect further reduc-
tkrus in the next few weeks in view
of the strong demand for export to
the U.S. Canadian milds are operating
capacity and the Dominion Depart-
ment of Agriculture will have no
difficulty in retaining adequate sup-
plies its the domestic market pt'ovid.
e l farmers make their requirements
known to their Iocal dealers prompt-
ly. It is not the intention to continue
control of exports beyond the period
of the present emergency.

Brussels Youth Drowns
In Swimming Pool—
Sunday afternoon, when a largo
number of swimmers were seeking
relief from the excessive beat in the
E. K. Werth swimming pool, a young
man, Gladstone McKay, son of Mr,
and Mrs. Hugh McKay, R. R. 2, Brus-
sels, was drowned- The 21 year old
victim was found at the bottom of
the pool about three o'clock, at a
spot where the water is approxim-
ately nine feet deep. His body was
discovered by a 12 year old boy, Glen
Cockwell, as he dived into the pool.
Artificial respiration was begun at
once, and they worked for two hours
but efforts to revive the young man
proved futile, Mr. McKay, with four
companions, Eldon Mann, Ross Ma-
chan, both of R. R.1, Moekton,
Charles Harrison, R. R. 2, Brussels,
and Scott. McLean, Monkton, arrived
at the pool aeput two o'clock and it
was said that none of the party knew
much about swimming. Because of
the large number in the pool and the
commotion created by the swimmers
the youth's absence was unno'ifced
until his body was found. The victim
of the tragedy was bern January 31,
1921. and had spent most of his life
in the vicinity of Brussels, For the
past eight years he had been helping
his father on the farm, He recently
made application to enter the R. C.

sides his parents, he is survived by
three brothers, Archie, Sudbury,
Duncan, Moncrieff, Allen, Toronto,
and a sister, Mrs, Howard McNaught,
