Macpherson. Editor: Robert Corbett, phone 2589 Phone 703, All Departments County Agriculture|| Picture Brighte: Than Year Ago Farmers and orchardists in the southern part of Ontario county are experiencing a near-ideal spring, Agricultural Representative H. L. Fair said today. Eighty percent of all seeding is completed. Cows are out on grass. The butter shortage is over. Fall wheat and rye are looking good. The cool, fairg weather of the past four weeks has been more beneficial than if it had been hotter. Yesterday's heavy rain was not much needed but did not last long enough to do any dam- age, Mr. Fair thinks. The agricultural - picture is far brighter than last year at the same time. One of the leading orchardists in Whitby district told The Times- Gazette that he hopes for a record year -- if only the weatherman will continue to favor -with the right proportions of sun and rain and heat. Had not yesterday's rain inter- vened, all crops in the southern part of Ontario county, except corn, would have been in, said Mr. Fair. Crops which have been planted are now well established. Discussing milk and cream pro- duction, Mr. Fair pointed out that . because the southern part of On- tario county largely produced an all-year-round supply of milk for immediate consumption, the pro- duction picture has not greatly changed with the coming of spring and releasing cattle to the fields. However, in the cream. producing areas where herds freshen in the Spring there has been a flush of milk and cream and surplus but- ter stocks are now being sent to storage, Around here the. young cattle are on g through the day and in at night. Some dairy herds are still in the barns. At this time last year, the orch. ardists were fighting wet weather, unable to operate sprayers in the soft ground between rows of trees. Today spraying is well advanced. Vote 15-13 to Place © Ajax 'Windfall' In County General Fund Yesterday morning, sitting in special session, Ontario County Council was handed a cheque for $21,361 in com- pensation from the Dominion for services to the village of In the afternoon, council embarked on a lengthy dis- cussion on what to do with the windfall. On motion of the reeve of Can-4 Ajax. nington (G. C. Wilson) and second- ed by V. Beaton of Brock Town- ship, it was proposed to place the cheque in a special account for the purpose of paying the city of Osh- awa its share, when and if the ¢ity's agreement in respect to the County Home is terminated. T. H. Harding of Seagrave said that he didn't think the money should be earmarked for any spe- cial . It was pointed out that rates for the year had been struck and committees had bud- geted, J. A. Hawtin of Beaverton thought it should be carried as a balance and the year could be end- ed with a reasonable surplus in current account. "If this is done there would be a tendency to whittle it away," added T, D. Thomas of East Whit- by. W, H. Westney of Pickering: "We spent the money for these services out of general fund. I don't see why this should not be returned to the general fund." Nice Stove! D. B. McIntyre of Whitby added FOR SALE CEMENT BUILDING BLOCKS Pwo sizes, § or 10's. Best price. Cor. Kent and Walnut Sis, Whitby, or 4 Oak St, Ajax, between 8 am. and 5 p.m. Brooklin can be financed this year. that no "whittling" of the fund|(, would be possible without consent of council and in this connection mentioned that the county prop- erty committee had just purchased a new $1,200 electric stove for the county home and now finds that it will likely cost $900 to wire it in and more re-wiring costs may be involved. Such items will have to be met. Clerk William. Manning noted that over $1,000 of the Ajax mon- ies have to be returned for school costs. He also said that it is very easy to allow funds to slip away because when expenditures are needed "you never ask how much is left." Possibly council has no legal right to place the money in say | special fund, Mr, Manning sal At the vote 13 desired to. place in a special fund--15 opposed. Too Many Inmates Capacity accommodation at the county home prompted Mr. McIn- tyre to ask how to dispose of two applications before him wherein Whitby cit desired admission to the over-full County Home, If these were granted he did not wish to be accused later of favoritism. Several members of council agreed that the county is under an obli- gation to look after all county ap- plicants even though they may haye to board them out. Reeve Andrew Muir of Whitby moved that these two ahd any other legitimate applicants 'be ad- mitted, Land Council decided to buy nine acres of land owned by James Gerrard in the township of Uxbridge at a price of $12 per acre for the pur- pose of reforestation. It is mostly pines now.
