Hullett Council to hold public meeting Hullett Township council will hold a ratepayers meeting on November 12 as nomination time rolls around again. The decision to hold the meeting was made at the regular monthly meeting of council on October 7. In other business, council approved building permits to B. Haverkamp for a garage and implement shed; Ray Hoggarth for a porch on a house; Fred Laurence; P. Westerhout for an implement shed; James Carter, implement shed; George Hoggart for pit silo. Court of revision was held on the Van Dorp Draining Works with two interested property owners present but no appeals made. Tender have been ailed but none were received. Bids are to be solicited from local contractors. Tenders were reopened for the Beane Drainage works but because some items were not clearly priced, council felt property owners should be consulted. A meeting was set for October 16 with the parties involved. Council voted to support the resolution from Zurich calling for addition grants to municipalities which are forced to upgrade recreation facilities. Permission was given to Tuckersmith township to sell lottery tickets for the Vanastra covered pool in the township. Permission was given to the Board of Education to carry out repairs to storm sewer outfall under the supervision of Ditch Commissioner R.N. Alexander. A petition was accepted from Ken Vodden for a clean out of the Van Baaren drain and the ditch commissioner is to look after it. General accounts of $1,601.50; drainage • accounts of $6,756.52 and road accounts of $44,482,90 were approved for payment; Insideh Editorial Church Classified Entertainment Page 4 Page 7 Page 13 Page 14 Principal says portable classroom safe The principal of Blyth Public School last week said the portable classroom at the school is safe for the use of students. Mrs. M.E. Michie, in a letter to parents of students at the school referred to the comments of some village councillors last week doubting the safety of the cement block legs on which the classroom stands. Councillors had mentioned the blocks and the fact that children could play under the building. Mrs. Michie said in her letter: "We notice by the Blyth Standard that some people are concerned about the safety of the children with regard to the portable classroom at Blyth Public School. For the information of the parents, we too, were concerned about this matter when we first saw it. Therefore, we contacted the company from which the portable is rented before we allowed a class in it and were assured that it was perfectly safe and ready for occupancy. At the same time we were informed that, when time and material permitted, a "skirt" would be around it, a "stoop" with steps would be erected at the south door and shelving would be installed inside. In the meantime, the children have been cautioned to stay out from under it. For years, we have begged for an extra classroom and now that we have it, it appears as though we are still complaining. We are certain that a company in the business of renting portables would not jeopardize the lives of the children' it serves. There is too much at stake. While we appreciate the concern of the members of the local council and the editor of the local newspaper, we wish to assure the parents that there really is no danger." Women's Institutes hold rally The Huron County Women's Institutes held their 23rd fall rally in St. John's Anglican Church, Brussels with a large attendance.

There was nothing so dramatic involved last week when The Standard carried comments from village council on several situa- tions in the village they consider- edunsafe including the portable classroom at the public school, although some people seemed to think we were crusading again, We admire the council's concern for safety which they have also expressed in the past over other buildings and we can take no credit for the item. When this newspaper express- es its own opinion it is almost always on the, editorial page. On page one, as last week, the newspaper was simply reporting the views of others.

COMBINATION. SECURITY •INCOME • FlEXIBILJTY PC. 4. THE BLYTH STANDARD, OCTOBER 16, 1974. Editorial Crack down on violence Some cldernu`n in 'Toronto recently tried to put pressure on hockey officials to cut down on the violence in minor hockey by refusing to allow use of municipally -owned hockey arenas by hockey leagues that didn't accept the recommendations ot'the McMurtric report on hockey violence. We haven't heard how the power play came out, but it seems the politicians had a good point. They went on the war path after the Ontario hockey Association threw out stiffer rules against fighting as proposed by the McMurtric report. Perhaps more local politicians should get on the same bandwagon. Nearly all arenas these clays are publicly funded. In fact in most small towns arena funding makes up the bulk of recreational spending. Those who don't play hockey or figure skate can keep paying and do without adequate facilities for other activates. But fewer and fewer parents these days, want to see their youngsters risk life and limb to play hockey. Our national past -tinge for many has become a national headache. Youngsters, imitating what they see on television, try to run each other through the boards, rap each other around the noggin with hockey sticks and drop their gloves on the slightest provocation to engage in fighting. Our children are. supposed to learn sportsmanship and fair play from sport but too often in hockey they learn that they must win at all costs and that the nice guy doesn't Blame it on professional hockey's influence; blame it on irresponsible coaches; blame it on parents who push their children too hard; blame it on anyone you please: the fact remains there is too much pressure to win, too much roughness in minor hockey today. Minorhockey has become an arm of the development system for the professional leagues. Every little boys is potential big leaguer who may bring glory to himself, his family, his coach and his community. We're obsessed with turning out winning hockey players and winning teams. But hocky is meant to be fun. Hockey should be a recreation that people stay involved in well into adulthood, whether or not they have exceptional skill. We need to put the fun back into the game, to make people want to take part, not shy away from it and retreat to inactivity as soon as it becomes apparent they aren't good enough to make the first team. •.If the people who run hockey at all levels aren't willing to clean up their'own act then the politicians on behalf of the taxpayers who pay the bills for the facilities, should make sure that hockey is doing the job it should be: providing healthy recreation and Tots of fun.. Don't you feel for them? Everywhere you turn these days, your heartstrings are plucked with the anguished cry of discrimination against Ontario's civil servants. At least once a week we see large advertisements in the daily newspapers telling us how bad Bill Davis is practically putting the civil servants on the bread lines because he won't give them the right to strike. Several times an hour your radio station provides tear -jerking stories about the poor typist at Queen's Park who earns so much less than the girl doing the same job down at' Toronto city hall. Your television too tells you how civil servants are earning far below the national average salary for industry. Something, obviously, has got to be done to help these civil servants. Obviously they are on the point of starving....especially when you figure how much of their mere government pitance is being eaten up in the vast advertising campaign they've been forced to finance to get an even break. How about a "take a civil servant to lunch" day? Maybe when the kids are collecting Hallowe'en money for UNICEF they could also save a few pennies for our starving civil servants? Is it really worth it? Is the Canada -Russia hockey series really worth the trouble it creates? The only real purpose behind these hockey contests between the Canadian and Soviet teams must be to create international goodwill between two countries who spent the past thirty years with their teeth bared at each other. In the past decade, since the ice of the cold war begun to melt a little around the edges, many efforts have been made to foster a new spirit of understanding, in the hope that the chilling fear which made some of us start on the construction of nuclear bomb shelters plight be changed to understanding and mutual trust. Sports seemed the natural road to this climate of better and more personal relationships. The events of two recent international hockey series, however, indicate that understanding has degenerated to confrontation 'and sympathy has been transformed into enmity. Those of us who have not undergone the tensions of a desperately contested hockey game have, perhaps, insufficient understanding on which to base criticism. It may be true that supercharged players cannot prevent themselves from fist fights when the frustrations of the game become too intense, If that is the case it would seem a wiser policy for Russians and Canadians to face each other over the chess board or at some other contest in which the tensions are less highly charged. it appears abvious that the Russian players were just as guilty as the Canadians in this series, and that Canadian hockey fans in Moscow were treated somewhat shabbily - but that does. not change the argument. If ill wit rather than good will is resulting from the hockey games, why continue them? Goodness knows Canadians can see and play plenty of good hockey at home.

But all that was before the Mustard Report. Since Seaforth doctor Paul Brady slammed the report which advocates centraliz- ing health services in Ontario at a Hospital Auxiliary convention in Seaforth there has been a lot of concern and discussion about the Mustard Report locally, Explaining that • implementa- tion of the report would mean a loss of personal choice for patients and for health care personnel, Dr, Brady urged that •convention delegates, who repre- sented over 6,000 Hospital Auxiliary members, study the report and "present their views to the government before it's too late." "And I'm not speaking of years but of weeks or months", Dr. Brady said. The sense of urgency that Dr. Brady expressed at the Hospital Auxiliary meeting niay or may not be justified. It's hard to believe that the Ontario government will stick to their short time table in imposing the changes that Mus- tard recommends in the face of opposition from most of the county governments concerned and almost every health related profession in the province, but they might, they just might, f ertainly Mr. Davis' predeces- sor pushed and kept pushing and eventually won out in spite of the fact that a good percentage of the public was against centralization of our school systems. The Mustard Report again reconmiends centralization, this time of health care. And if there is one thing we have learned since the county wide school boards were introduc- ed here, it's that bigger does not necessarily mean better, but it ALWAYS means more expensive. The worry that the regional health councils that Mustard recommends would only add yet another highly paid bureaucratic tier to government, is one of the big reasons that we sec to criticize the report. Another big problem we see with Mustard is that the report's authors, all of whom appear to live in the big cities want to lump Huron County into a health district that would be the largest in the province, including five counties and over half a million people. All health services, public health nurses and inspectors, doctors, hospitals would be CROSSWORD PUZZL[ 1 ACROSS 1. Obstruct, as a drain • 5. City in Georgia 10. Assistant 11. Evade 12.

There would be no more hospital auxiliaries, no more Ontario Hospital Association and no more local hospital boards. One of the provinces' Deputy Ministers of Health said that the smallest hospital in a district might have 300 beds, Dr, Brady told his audience, There were gasps from the women at the meeting. Seaforth Community Hospital which has just received accreditation, re- flecting its high standard of patient care, has 45 beds. Doctors will be told where to practise and will not receive OHiP payments if they refuse, Dr. Brady said. The family doctor will be phenomenon of the past as sick people arc assessed by a non physician who decides what doctor he or she should see, The Seaforth doctor told auxiliary members that he found many of the Mustard recommend- ations "very alarming". We urge , our readers to write their MPPs or Premier Davis' office at Queens Park and ask for more information about what the Mustard Report will mean for health care in Ontario. The report itself is pretty dismal to attempt to read through. The provincial government, if it is serious about citizen involvement, should have easy to follow capsule versions available now while the matter is under discussion, not later when the decisions have all been made. We agree with some of the reports ideas. We also think that all Ontarians, no matter where they live, have a right to equally good health care, We are just not sure that a scheme that includes shutting down hospitals that serve their communities because they are close to and involved with them, is the best way to improve province wide health care. Better health care can come simply from working with the hospitals, the health units, the medical clinics and the specialists as they now exist to help them better serve their own small areas. We don't have to amalgamate or establish all over again these services on a five -county basis and then expect better care to result automatic- ally, Another empire we .do not need, How can we impress this upon the big blue machine at Queen's Park? -THE HURON EXPOSITOR Letters The Standard welcomes letters to the editor on any .subject of popular interest.

Mr, Bruce Heath, director of the Huron County Children's Aid Society spoke on the Bursary fund which all Branches had supported bypaying 50 pp p y g cents pts per member until last year. He gave an account of the spending of some of tate bursary to assist in the furthering of the education of a Ward of the Society and urged for support again so the Society could assist these young people. A discussion period followed and it was decided to again ask the Members to pay 50 cents so the Bursary could be continued. Mr, Heath thanked the delegates for their support, A smorgasbord lunch was served by members of Huron East and the Brussels ladies, The afternoon session was opened by singing 0 Canada, Greetings from London Convention Area were brought by Mrs, EleanorBradnock ra dnork o f the London Arca and Mrs, William Smith of the Guelph Area, The County Scholarship was presented by Miss Jane Pengalley to Miss Anne Marie Stewart of Seaforth.

More food cost increases coming WITH ADRIAN VOS Dire to crop failure in several major producing countries in 1972, farm and consequently food prices soared in 1973. This year it isn't a crop failure yet in all oI' North America, but all indications point to a greatly reduced crop in 011 major commodities. Even to the extent that the president of the U.S.A. has curtailed grain exports. A child can figure that this again will mean increases in food prices. There are several reasons for the reduced crop, the main ones being spring floods and summer draughts. Another factor was the. increase in fertilizer prices, in some eases 300 per cent higher. It stands to reason that many farmers put less of this stuff on their fields, with resultant lower yields. Since one of the most important fertilizers is nitrogen, which is for a great deal is made out of natural gas, one can readily see why this costs more. Countries like India simply didn't have the money to buy and together with a similar summer draught as we had here, it made their almost sufficiency in food grains collapse. In Canada and the U.S.A. the shortage of grain caused the price of feed grains to quadruple from two years ago. As a result pork and beef producers' Rocky Racoon says: Keep costs rose $► much that they operated at a loss. Many pork men sold or are selling their sows and beef men their cows. This in. turn will bring less pork on the market next year and Tess beef the year after. When there is a shortage the price will go up and thus we can expect to pay mote for our meat in the next couple of years. We, as farmers don't like today's prices and we as consumers won't like next year's prices. Orderly marketing through strong marketing boards is the only answer. They can stabilize prices for farmer and consumer alike. Look at the Egg Board. When the price was low in the U.S.A. they brought 30 Million eggs into Canada. Subse- quently 28 million of them are spoiled. Now U.S. eggs arc going up in price and Whelan has to put limits to what the graders can export or it would pull our price sky-high. If the egg board was strong enough it could say how many eggs to reserve for Canadian needs at a reasonable price for both producer and consumer and sell any surplus on the world market. Now thv graders have to be stopped by federal order. Is it any wonder that graders try to destroy marketing boards, It prevents them to rip-off the public. woodlot healthy Maitland Valley's Rocky Rac- coon has some tips on how to keep your woodlot healthy so that you may gain some of the benefits described in an earlier article. Some of the most common and harmful factors influencing your woodlot are cattle, disease and insects, rodents and fire. Farmers may use the woodlot for an additional grazing arca, unaware that by allowing cattle to walk over the forest floor the combined problems of trampled roots, destroyed seedlings, broken saplings and compacted soil soon take their toll. Cattle also damage trees by exposing the inner parts through tearing off bark, which allows insects and disease an easy entry into the tree, While some insects and diseases affect the leaves, or food converters of the tree, others attack inside and cause irrepar- able damage. A common example of this is the dutch elm disease. Rodents, such as mice and rabbits also destroy a large number of trees. By removing bark, these pests also help to spread an infection of disease or insects. • The fastest and usually most dangerous enemy of the woodlot is fire. Unnoticed ground fires can burn out seedlings and saplings and set back natural succession by years. Destruction of leaves on the forest floor not only exposes soil to leaching and erosion, but also' removes organic food which plants need for growth. It only takes seconds for a fire to destroy what may have taken decades to • grow in your woodlot. Rocky suggests that to solve some of these problems you can fence around woodlots to keep cattle out, remove infected trees and treat remaining trees to prevent spread of disease, place plastic or metal mesh around tree bottoms to keep rodents from damaging them, and use a combination of enclosing grassy ditches and easy access to the woodlot to help in preventing tires, If you would like to find out more about woodlot protection, feel free to write to Rocky at the Maitland Valley Conservation Authority Office.

BY BILL SMILEY THINGS at last seem to be looking up for Canadian writers, after generations of neglect by their own countrymen. With a few notable exceptions, it used to be that to be a writer in Canada was almost on a par with being an Untouchable in India. If you were not openly scorned, you were quietly ignored, which was worse. The big publishers, most of them British or American, with an affiliate in Canada, shied away from Canadian writers as though they had the plague, at the same time fostering insignificant American and British writers. One of the exceptions was Stephen Leacock, who made a lot of money and became a well- known character in this country, after his first book had been accepted by a British publisher. Typically, Leacock was ignored if not despised, by the people of Orillia, Ont., when he was alive. He had a summer home there. Many Orillians detested him because he poked wicked fun at some of their leading citizens in his Mariposa tales. Not so today. Some sharp people finally realized that Leacock was commercially viable as a tourist attraction. Nowadays you'd think Leacock had walked down from a mountain with stone tablets, into Orillia. It is the in -thing to belong to the Leacock Museum, with a full-time curator. There is a Leacock annual award for a humour, a Leacock medal, a Leacock weekend culminating in a huge dinner at which. the saint is paid proper homage. 1'11 bet the old guy is doubled up in his grave, laughing. It was all so Canadian, in its approach to writing, that it would- be funny if it weren't a little sad. Canadians are builders. They'll spend billions on railroads and transcontinental highways and canals and dams. But when it comes to culture, the approach is always a two-bit one. A few dedicated souls formed the Leacock Society. They had no money. But every year, they'd presuade a few people to act as judges, and these idiots would pick out the funniest book published in Canada that year. I know. 1 was one of those idots for about four years, which gave me some insight into Canada humour. Most of the books submitted were about as funny as a broken leg. Let's say you are Eric Nicol of Vancouver ( a very funny writer, by the way). This would be about 15 years ago. You are informed by wire that you have won the Leacock Award for Humour and are asked to attend the Leacock Dinner, receive the Leacock Medal (worth about 60 cents in a pawnshop), and make a witty speech which will take you hours to write. The dinner is absolutely fret, but you pay your own way from and back to Vancouver. Today of course, it's different. The dinner price has gone up from $2.50 to $7.50 and the drinks from 45 cents to whatever. 1 believe that at long last, some brewer has actually put up $1,000 to go with the Medal. Big deal. So much for that. I digress. During the long, painful aridity of the '20s,'30s and '40s, the names oI' Canadian writers were not exactly household words. A few writers toiled on in the Canadian desert. Morley Calla - At last things are looking up for hard-pressed Canadian writers ghan. a line writer with an international reputation, plugged away, When he produced a new novel, it would be avidly snatched up by as many as six or seven hundred of his fellow country- men, To make a living, he had to do hack work in journalism, radio, and later TV.

The 30 cars and the home van took various routes through .the area and the residents report that the scenery was at its best. Many thanks to the Church for this very worthwile project. Marie Flynn and Mrs. Nellie Welsh shared the piano playing for Monday afternoon's activities along with Norman Speir on violin. Mr. and Mrs. Vincent of Bluevale; Mrs. Scott of Clinton and three sisters from Seaford); Mrs. McGregor, Mrs, Butt and Miss McCloy were welcomed to the Home. Mrs, Hackwell and Harry Fowler were honoured on their birthdays. Twenty-eight members of the "Over 90" Club held their October meeting in the Ground Floor North dining room. Volunteers from the Walkerburn Club of Auburn; Pat and Vaughan Hunking, Betty Archambault, Dorothy Tamblyn and Kay Hanley of Clinton assisted with the activites. Following games of euchre and crokinole, tea and cookies were served by the ladies. Next month's meeting will be held in the First Floor North sitting room and will include a variety programs. Mr. Ed Stiles of Goderich, visited the Home on Thursday afternoon and played an hour of organ music in the chapel and accompanied Betty Rogers with vocal solos. The "Family Night" entertain- ment consisted of a variety programs arranged by Marie Flynn. Harold Black 'was emcee for the evening and joined Marie, Jim Murray and Norman Speir for some old tyre country and western tunes. There were step dance numbers by Dawn and Debbie Flynn and piano instru- mentals by Patrick Murray. Mrs. McMichael, a native of Hulled Township, thanked the entertain- ers on behalf of the residents. Following the program Harvey and Kay Howard, who have been faithful volunteers since coming to Clinton and who arc leaving shortly for Hanover, were pre- sented with gifts from the four craft rooms by Bessie Elliott, Cora Robinson, Wray Cornish and August Maas. Administrator, Ches Archibald, expressed the appreciation of both the staff and residents to the Howards for their excellent volunteer work and wishes them well in the future. A volunteer rally was held in the auditorium on Thursday evening to discuss volunteer work for the coming season. Twenty people attended the rally and after viewing slides, pictures of events at the Home and a discussion regarding programs for the coming year, sandwiches, squares and tea were served by the ladies. 1� Ilt'll Illt't'l( st,c1hf, 'hut\ \'t' II'� rl'lllln.11llc t�t't t,ll' t 14',.Ift'llll kvitll tlrt'.

From the Minister's Study BY TED HOOGSTEEN BLYTH CHRISTIAN REFORMED CHURCH In this autumn weather, amid the beauty of the trees, the greatness of God is undeniable, He is the one who created the earth. We have some vague sense of a higher being, a divine entity, who is the maker of all the wonders of nature. What this means is, usually, a debatable matter, It is true that from nature we should be able to know God fully, except that we are blind, Whatever he may be called, the Great Spirit, Manitou, the ultimate being, the Mathematician, even God, these names mean very little until we know God thru Jesus Christ (John 14.8-11)' In Jesus, God is no longer a vague entity know as a divine being, but the Creator of the earth. Only the power of salvation and wisdom. • Any concept of God apart from Christ is merely a human imagination, and as such, an idol. And that in this sophisticated age! Jesus from the Scriptures declares to us the greatness of the Father, who made this world, who maintains this world, and who will bring all things to a conclusion. This is the God who thru natural processes paints the trees on the golds and reds we admire. His power and majesty are known only in Christ. Apart from Christ, we have no knowledge of the God revealed in the Sciptures, who made the world in which we live. SEE IT AT HURON MENS CHAPEL AUBURN,SUNDAY OCTOBER 20 8 P.

THE BI.YTII STANDARD, OCTOBER 16, 1974., Hydro claims less problems since land Ontario Hydro officials who are responsible for the acquisition of farm lands for power corridor sites, are convinced that they are tweeting ‘with much less opposi- tion from property owners. 'l'hev cite the great number of farmers who are granting early access to their farms as proof of a better understanding of Hydro's policies. . At a press conference in Walkerton recently Neil McMurtrit.,, said "Expropriation is no longer a dirty word. Most farmers now understand that Hydro is doing everything possi- ble to stake its land acquisitions completely fair." The speaker, who is Hydro's property director,said that 85 per cent of the farmers in the Wingham area have granted early acess, which they arc not forced to do under the conditions of expropriation, Early access, which might be as much as 90 days in advance of legal takeover, Heart attacks depend on lifestyle BY DAVID WOODS Thirty or 40 years ago there wasn't much we could do about killer diseases - either avoiding them or curing them. if you contracted polio, say, or tuber- culosis, your best hope was hope itself. But since those days drugs have brought many once fatal disease under control. Heart attack, once comparatively rare, is now the major cause of death in adults. In fact, the statistics are disturbing: the incidence of *heart attack has increased by 60 per cent over the past 15 years. And it's still rising. Unlike the diseases that killed our grandparents, though, heart attack is largely preventable. Not entirely, of course: sex, age and heredity must all be considered. Men are more liable to heart attack than women; older people more than younger; those with a fancily history of heart disease more than those without. Never- theless, lifestyle is the important factor affecting risk; heart attack is strongly influenced by things that people do - or don't do. The individual has a great deal of control over his risk of suffering an attack. For example, gaining weight places strain on the heart, so reducing weight reduces risk. Since most people add pounds because they cat too much or exercise too little • or both • the solution is readily apparent: sensible diet (including reduced amounts of cholesterol) and regular exercise. Similarly, since cigarettes have also been clearly implicated as a factor in heart disease, cutting down on - or cutting out - smoking will further help your heart. What causes heart attack is a build-up of fat in the coronary arteries: this gradually stakes them narrower until, eventually, Hood can't flow through. Sometimes a heart attack conics without warning. Often the ►warning signs include shortness of breath, tightness in the chest, discomfort in the arms, dizziness, or fatigue. Patients who may be risking attack arc advised not to repons to these signs by engaging in strenuous activity, It's a natural reaction, in these circumstances, to want to test the heart. But that could trigger an attack; the proper course is to rest and call Mc doctor. If the pain is severe, tall 111111 immediately.

Mr. McMurtrie said, "1 don't think there is any other utility which is doing as much to cooperate with the public. We had to learn the hard way." Learning the hard way, of course, was a reference to the series of public meetings at which area farmers battled with Hydro for better bargaining rights for land owners. Those rights have been recog- nized in an entirely new land acquisition policy under which the owner is given several options, including outright purchase, easement agreements with either lump or sum or annual payments; plus payment for entitlements. (These land acquisition programs wet. described in deatil in, an article in this paper two weeks ago, following a similar meeting in Kitchener.) At the Walkerton meeting R.J. Hawley, Hydro's manager of appraisals, outlined the various plans under which land is now acquired. He also pointed out that the land owner is not required to make his decision about the plan he prefers, or indeed the price he will accept, until after all the evidence has been presented at public hearings. in fact, he has the right of appeal to independent boards even after he has accepted one of the plans. The Hydro officers answered questions after the formal presentation of the plan was completed. Responding for Hydro were M,R. Pask, manager of acquisitions; A.D. Mosher, senior right of way planning engineer; B.J. 'Pierce, Walkerton area manager and Ross Dundas, forestry foreman, Walkerton arca. D ON'T B URN CANADA'S FORESTS! RURAL ROUNDUP FEET AND LEG PROBLEMS MORE COMMON WITII COMFINEMENT PIG REARING Today's fast-growing pigs, raised indoors, are more likely' to have acting feet than did their range -reared, slow-growing ancestors, according to a Ridgetown College of Agricultural Technology livestock specialist. "Selection for the meat -type pig may be producing pigs that become too heavy for their immature skeletons to support, ".l.R. Morris explains. Careful selection, feeding and management by swine producers can alleviate this problem. When replacing stock, farmers should consider good bone quality as well as rapid gains. In addition, because disproportionate claw size contributes to more injuries to the outside claw, farmer should avoid gilts and boars with small inside toes. Experts believe the degree of difference in claw size is inherited. "Lower feed: gain ratios in today's pigs have resulted in less net calcium and phosphorus intake for a given amount of weight gain," Mr. Morris says. The reduced intake of calcium and phosphorus may be the greatest factor in producing leg and feet abnormalities. For growing pigs, he recommences diets containing .75 percent calcium, .65 percent phosphorus and 300 IU vitamin D per pound of feed, Claw injuries can be reduced if careful attention is given to the sloping and finish of concrete floors. Totally slotted floors cause more wear and tear to feet than 25 percent slotted floors.

This is what Ontario is doing to guarantee that income. Your Ontario Government believes senior citizens should now have a guaranteed annual income of $2700 a year for single persons, and where both spouses qualify, $5400 for married couples. So, if you are 65 or older, with an income of less than $2700 a year...and have lived in Canada for at least the past 5 years and in Ontario for the last year.-. you may qualify for GAINS. GAINS is Ontario's Guaranteed Annual Income System. It is designed to ensure an annual income of $2700 by making up the difference between the GAINS guarantee and income from other sources. Over 260,000 senior citizens are now receiving benefits under this program. If you receive Old Age Security and the Guaranteed Income Supplement, your eligibility for Ontario GAINS is determined automatically. You do not have to apply. If you are not receiving GAINS pay- ments but feel you may qualify, please give us a call."

He's right there, conscientious about doing jobs assigned to him and even volunteering for others. Wayne is 14, healthy and sturdy with blue eyes, blonde hair and a fair, freckled complexion. He is amiable, co-operative and eager to please so foster parents and teachers find him pleasant to have around. Wayne attends a school for non-academic students, Although he is rather indifferent to bookish activities, he has a talent for shop work. Now in a farm foster home, Wayne enjoys the life and especially the animals. He has hopes of being a farmer and having "lots of dogs". Wayne gets along well with both children and adults and is protective of the younger children in his foster home, Baseball is this lad's great interest though not on a com- petitive basis. His baseball glove is his treasured possession. He also enjoys weight lifting, wrestling and bike riding, Too shy for most community activities, Wayne is happiest sharing the family life and chores around his foster home. However, he has recently become a Boy Scout. Wayne is the sort of boy who needs to know exactly what is expected of him. Ile should have warm, relaxed parents who will appreciate his shy, pleasing personality and who can accept his limitations. To inquire about adopting Wayne, please write to Today's Child, Ministry of Community and Social Services, Box 888, Station K, Toronto M4P 2112.

Wondersteel, Federation clash head on A representative for Wondersteel Buildings clashed head-on with the Huron County Federation of Agriculture Thursday night and probably ended up with a bigger headache than when he started. Frank Hess, Marketing Manager of Wondersteel showed up at the regular meeting of the Federation held last week in Hensall and attempted to get an apology from the Federation fot its campaign to have money returned to a Lucknow-area farmer who had been unsatisfied with his treatment at the hands of the company, The Fede-ation had attempted to arbitrate on behalf of the farmer and the tight had been the subject of a column by Gordon Sanderson in the London Free Press. Mr. Hess said the Federation had not checked both sides of the story, that they did not have all the facts, that they had slandered his company and that the executive of the Federation had acted in an irresponsible way. He claimed "we deserve an apology and said the kind of damage done to his company could run into the tens of thousands of dollars. Mason Bailey, director for the North- west Huron region said he had already spent two hours in a _meeting with Mr. Hess and Wonderstecl president and didn't want to waste more time at the beginning of the meeting and moved that the discussion be postponed to the end of the meeting. When the subject was picked up again, Mr. Bailey said he was sure the facts as given to him by the farmer concerned were true. He claimed there was more information of the subject which backed the farmers complaint which he would not reveal because of the possibility of court action between the farmer and the company, Mr. Hess was back on his feet again rcstressing his points and demanding an apology. After a long period of his stubbornly demanding an apology and the Federation members stubbornly refusing, Gordon Hill, Varna -arca farmer and President of the O,F,A, stood and advised Mr. Hess that he wasn't getting very far and perhaps would be best to carry on his argument elsewhere. Mr. Hess asked one more time for a resolution of apology but instead was greeted with a motion of adjournment which was carried unanimously, Morris awards snow contracts Those who doubted winter is just around the corner would have their eyes opened by an item at the Morris Township council meeting, Council watched the tenders for snowplowing in the township for the coming year to George Radford Construc- tion Ltd. of Blyth for plowing with grader and to Ross Nicholson for plowing with truck.
