two horses on our ten acre property How long can they slay on the grans before we bring them Into the stable Do they need extra food In the Pall I have heard that the gnus is not nourishing late in the year Answer The protein in grass lessens considerably as the year passes By September most pasture grasses need to be supplemented with hay and grain Of course you have supplied salt and mineral all year 1 hope The horses can stay out as long as you wish all winter if necessary providing they lots of nourishing food and shelter from storms or rain In this area horses are usually brought in at night by late October or November and fed two or three meals a day Keep turning them out during the in nil winter weather and you will have healthy horses Question I am short and my horse is tall When I bridle him he politely raises his head until 1m on tiptoe I try to face his head down he really throws It out of reach Is this easy to fix or should I get a mounting block Answer this Is easy to fix The idea is to make bridling so attractive he reaches his head down In anticipation Rinse the bit in hot water to warm It and sprinkle it with sugar Show this to the horse As he is licking the sugar a neat swift movement of the arm will bring the bridle over his happy and unsuspecting head If he doesn t care for sugar hold a carrot along the bit In your hand Question What are splints Answer

the project Construction at Kelso was underway Friday and Authority spokesmen hope the project will be completed before the start of tin new skiing season Hie improvements at the ski area include the installation of more lights and a Tbar and the of a compressor and more snow making facilities HKCA hopes to fin once the project through a bank loan repayable over a period of five years If profits

Authority plans to purchase acres on the northwest corner of the Queen Elizabeth Way and Bronte Road for a conservation park area The land is currently owned Maurice Flint and plans to leave the

Walter Robson to speak at the hearing on their behalf Both projects arc many miles away from the township and ratepayers would not benefit from either o them he told the hearing Recreation projects such as this could have a disturbing effect on the township budget and we wouldn know at budget time just what they are going to cost he He told the board supported three conservation authorities including Halton Hamilton and Grand River Projects like this could result in us substantial amount of money he said Max Hntherley secretary treasurer of HRCA explained that and the other municipalities within the watershed would only contribute money in case there was a deficit on the ski operation More than persons used the area last winter and we expect the unproved f to draw more people this winter he said We have increased hours to meet the demand and give skiers maximum use of the area has gone as far as they can go He also explained profits are expected to reach to easily make yearly instalments Mr explained share oE the yearly payment would be plus interest and the township would be obliged to pay this money only if the ski area made no money whatsoever Us share over the fiveyear period would only be a maximum plus interest For the Flint property the township would only be asked to pay including interest over 10 years Hatheriey told the board The first year payment would be 96 Yes but projects like this create additional money for townships such as us to spend money that we did not count on Mr Robson replied Authority general manager Murray Stephen said

to lose this property he noted It Is the most outstanding creek valley close to an urban area he concluded The apportionment and financial capacity of your township are the only things the board is concerned with A of the told Mr Robson I believe you should file your objections to the minister he advised The board felt the township apportionment was fair and the municipality capable of paying it
