Want More Than Food
and Night's Lodging
)Constable Jul Block advises us of
the second appearance of two trans-
ients a few days ago for this winter.
The other time they were here about
two months ago, they were given
meals, etc., what they required, and'
not satisfied with this they evade
cash collections. getting $1.00 from a
iti.,zen and smaller amounts fr

Farmer Offers Puzzling
Question
An Elma Township farmer brought
a beef hide into Listowel one day
recently, where he disposed of itto a
firm in the hide -buying line of bus-
iness. The hide weighed 45 lbs. and
the farmer received 21 cents for it
He needed some belt laces, and went
to a local hardware store where he
purchased two, being charged • 20
cents each for the laces. In this way
he had the work of skinning the hide
and the trouble in bringing it to
town, but is out -19 cents on the whol
transaction, although he has two
belt laces. A conservative estimate
of laces to a hide would be 150, and
these, if sold at 20 cents each, wo-
uld net $30. .Allowing $6 for the
work of tanning and cutting into
laces, this would still leave $24, a
handsome profit over the 21,,cents
paid the farmer for the hide in the
first instance—Ex.
May Keep Inspector
On February" 25, County Clerk'
Holman received a letter from Hon.
T. L. Kennedy, Minister. of Agricult-
ure, saying that on the grounds pf
economy it had been decided to dis-
pense with corn borer inspection, for
which'. the Provincial Government
pays half. The Minister was told that
last year corn borer was more prev-
alent in Huron county than for many
years and that this county had ap-
pointed its inspector for 1933. Word
has since been received that if any
county feels this work is of such im-
portance as to warrant the expense,
of an inspector the Govermiien.t
Would continue to pay its share, and
there the matter stands, awaiting the
attention- of the Warden. There is
a wide divergence of opinion in Co-
unty Council on the value of corn
borer in spection, reeves of northern
townships, where little corn is grown
being opposed to it. The inspector is
due to start on his rounds within a
few weeks.

Wanted Different Ticket
Goderich police have some funny
experiences in handling the trans-
ients who seek relief. The other day
a young transient asked for a ticket
to the picture show. He was told he
could have a meal ticket if he was
hungry, but this he turned down
promptly; he wanted to get to the
picture show. Needless to say he
was refused. But this is only one of
many instances that go to show that
what many transients are after is not
the satisfying of hunger at all but
money to spend in some other way,
in fact the hard times are being trade
the excuse for many different types
of racket, as for instance the young
man who goes about with an olcl shoe
collecting dimes to get a patch put on
it, and the public are warned not to
give transients money; send them to
the town hall and if necessary they
will be furnished with a meal ticket.
Another racket is to call at a house
after meal 'time and ask for some-
thing to eat, relying on the awkward-
ness of getting a meal at such an
hour and trusting that the household
er will hand out a quarter.—Goderich
Star.
