Three meetings
for dairymen
Three educational meetings
for Huron County dairymen
have been organized to take
place in the Londesboro Com-
munity Hall during February.
The first meeting on February
6, 1:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. will
feature Dairy Herd Management.
Ross Marshall, of Kirkton, will
be one of the speakers. Mr.
Marshall owns and manages
Huron County's top producing
R.O.P. Holstein herd.
Mr. Marshall, besides manag-
ing his outstanding producing
herd, provides leadership for the
Holstein -Friesian breed. He is
presently first vice-president
of the Holstein -Friesian Assoc-
iation of Canada.
Gordon Bell from St. Marys
is the Western Ontario fieldman
for the Holstein breed. At this
meeting, Mr. Bell will speak
on the art of marketing good
dairy cattle. The present strong
prices for good dairy cattle
makes this a timely topic.
On February 13, Milking
Management will be discussed.
Equipment, sanitation, and
milking procedure will be
major topics. Dr. Hacker of the
Animal and Poultry Science
Department of the University of
Guelph, along with resource
prople from the Surge Equipment
Company will be taking part.
This meeting will commence
at 10:30 a.m. and conclude in
the afternoon. It would be a
good idea to bring lunch.
Production of home grown
feed is always important on the
dairy farm. Pat Lynch, Soils
and Crops Specialist, and Mike
Miller, Extension Specialist,
will team up on February 20
for this meeting starting at 1:30
p. m.
A special invitation is extend-
ed to Huron County dairymen
to attend these meetings.

Faultless brakes are a "must"
for winter driving safety.
Have the equalization checked.
A pull to one side can cause a
dangerous skid, warns the Ont-
ario Safety League.
Tuckersmith wants more subsidy
Tuckersmith Township will
request the ministry of transport-
ation and communications to
provide additional subsidy due
to the acquisition of five addit-
ional miles of urban roadway at
Vanastra.
In 1973, the township receiv-
ed a road subsidy of $74, 000
for 101 miles of roadway. This
year, the Ministry has offered
only $53, 000. This 20 per cent
drop in subsidy is made more
serious because of the extra five
miles.
Thirteen ratepayers affected
by the Bigg Drain attended the
last council session for the rep-
ort on the drain by engineer
Henry Uderstadt of Orangeville.
The discussion lasted about two
hours and centred around the
variances in assessment, and
whether to leave part of it an
open drain.
Court of Revision was held on
the DeJongs Drain. There were
no appeals and tenders will be
called in the spring.
Brian Flannigan, chairman
of the Seaforth Lions' Park Com-
mittee, presented a report on the
park which is located in the
township and asked for a grant.
Requests for building permits
were approved for John Fraiser,
Egmondville for a porch addit-
ion on house and for Larry
McClinchey, R.R.5, Clinton,
for addition to house.
Council authorized the tax
sale listing of properties with
1971 arrears.
Council did not endorse the
resolution from the village of
Grand Bend petitioning the
change in the municiple act
which would allow a member of
council to attend a County Cou-
ncil Session if the reeve of the
township was unable to be pres-
ent. Reeve Elgin Thompson said
this would not be possible for
a councillor to sit on County
Council if he had not been
sworn in.
Council approved grants as
follows: Tuckersmith Federat-
ion of Agriculture; $600; Seaf-
orth Lions Club, $300 (park);
Seaforth Community Hospital,
$150; Seaforth Central Huron,
and South Huron Agriculture
