soon if the Ministry of Transportation and Communication ap proves the resolutions sent in to them by the Eramosa township council and he Erin township council Three fatal accidents have occurred at the intersection of highway and County Road over the past few years council has been concerned about the corner for some time and had suggested many ways to alleviate the condition Apparently according to council some drivers do not stop at the stop sign and continue on driving across the highway sometimes resulting in collisions with cars on the highway It was first suggested an overhanging flashing red and amber light be erected However with the recent in stnllation of such a light at the Stntton Dupuis corner farther down the road and the one outside Erin it was felt by the council that another light would lose its impact with drivers on High way Strips Roads superintendent Bob Hamilton suggested rumble strips on the county road He tola council several weeks ago that if the driver was daydreaming he would readily be brought back to his senses with these strips The Erin council also felt something should be done and asked Eramosq for support when they go to the Ministry felt a stop sign with a large flashing light erected above it would serve the pur pose quite well They recom mended this to the Ministry There have been three fatalities at his corner said Reeve Bill There were five at the other corner Dupuis before we put the sign up He suggested immediate action Choose ft TILDEN ANDREW MURRAY MOTORS Howl GEORGETOWN Clean your carpet faster and better

When producing coloured foals breeders face the problem of looking for a dam and sire whose cross will result foal of superior Ined for For many years we tried to raise a foil from our grullamarcthisis the grey dun color a buckskin derivative To get the desired conformation we put her to a Quarter horse stud only breed carrying this color gent to any extent So we spent years trying many different types However with the help of much litenture and the of Guclph we sure learned a great deal about color genes would take complete issues of this paper However I interesting dicusiion recently with an Appaloosa breeder about the greying gene This icne causes dark colored horses fade out is age the dark hair is replaced by whilL hair This is common in Thoroughbreds Arabs and learned to stay away from a white or grey when trying to product our true grey dundun bung a totally different hair type breeders are alsowirned to slay from breeding stock carrying the gent Many foal has faded out to pure white without any App coloration by the time its four or five if it possesses the greying gene Blue is breeder friend of has a gorgeous blue roan with typical blanket Kit was careful to explain that many Appys arc blue roan without carrying this greying gene The air is stable mixture of black and white hairs that dot tas the horse ages An article lent me called Crosses That Will
