PAGII TWO &ni What Should Council' Do Now? After that meeting last week on 'the Garbage Collection preblem, we-doubt if, the Toý.vn Council has ,any better idea ef the citizens' wishes in the matter than it had before. Certainly, they must realize that many citizens view the change with suspicion. Unfortunately, the meetintg almost immediately deveioped into a battie of personalities and became more confused when loyalties ta local garbage men and other factors entered the picture. Probably the main bight spot of the s ession was centained in the practical advice and information provided by Mayor Jack Bur- ixett ot Cobourg, concerning their method of operating a town collection system. The big questioný now appears ta be what action, if any, Council should take te settle the issue. There is no doubt that, sooner or later, Bowmanville will fol- low the experience et other municipalities ef similar size and undertake some type cf municipal garbage collection. Those who wèrè most vociferously opposed at the meeting would undoubtedly agree withq this statement. If a municîpally controlled systemn were operated efficiently with a1 modern sanitary van, and with proper1 dùmp central, there is little doubt that itj would be an' improvement, providlng regular, 'unit ormn handling of garbage at lewer individual cont than citizens are now recéiving. We feel that. at this time, Council would be well advised te prepare complete detailseconcerning a municipally operatd system including what garbage will b. handled, whether it will b. faken froma the curb or alon#side houses, wbjether present garbage collecters will be cempen- sated if their business is taken ever, wheth- er they propose te have the systern handled by town employees with town equipment or by private contract, what scheme fhey have for looking alter the 'dump, and what the appraximate cost inight~ be if if were put into effeet. When that information has been placed bef are the ,citizens, we feel the matter should b. put on a. ballot to be vated on at the forthcoming municipal election. We think the majority ef citizens will approve if there is assurance that the service will be as goed or better than is presently being received from private operators; if the cost will be less o'r the same'as now. if the dvimp will be adequate- ly ]ooked alter and if the present cal- lectors will b. given a fair settlement )or going eut ef business. Does conservation of the land pay off for the tarmer in dollars and cents? We read recently where a survey made in Illinois helps tell the story. Over a ten-year period, carefulý records were kept of a group of tarms where approved ,conservation practices were used and also of a group ot physically comparable non- conservation tarms. TÉhe tacts produced are striking. At the beginning increases in farm incorne tram good conservation tended ta be relatively small. But later on they rose abruptly. At -the end of 10 years, the conservation farms returned eight dollars more net per acre than the non-conserva- fion farms. And, of great importance, the conservation farmers maintained and inmproved the productivity of themr land. Non-conservation farmers, on the other band , were forced te mine their land te p ýe, s: 9- e a ;e t ie e d ni We. have been contending that soofle or later the C.C.F. group shauld hitch u with the Liberal Party.

They consist of such things as proper land use; testing and treating the soil; crop rotation; good water management, including contouring, ter- racing and drainage; and efficient use of legumes, grasses and ather livestock feeds. Net many years ago such a program would-have been far.from simple. For ane thing, little was knawn about how to conserve land. For another, the farmer 's main tools were his own muscles and those et draft animais. Now science has given us the necessary knowledge - and in modern mechanical farm equipment we have the efficient, ecenomical tools that are needed to do the, job.

Why anyone continues working at a hum-drum job for Iess than $8,000 a year is difficult to understand. Just lust week we read an advertisement from Toronto where the average salesman in. a .real estate firrn makes $700 a month. And al you need is energy and ambition. There's ne catch.
