bylaw which under the 1949 n vestment gave the band a yearly grant of approximately 500 under the 1950 assessment the grant would be 1000 since the whole of actons assessment is now doubled under the new coun ty system it is necessary it appears lo repeal the former by law and at the same time vote on another question if the grant is to remain the same we believe most citizens agree that the band should have an annual grant the original vote on the by law showed a big majority favouring such a qi ant and very appreciative of the services rendered by the band through the years it is quite easy to understand the noed for the change if the change is not mode it wtll just cost the taxpayers double the present amount and that means higher lawns we believe the band does not expect or urge that the grant le doubled from this year wo trust the issue will tie simply put to the ratepayers on the ballot so that confusion will b voided we can see no reason why it cannot be combined in one question on the ballot paper we recall very vividly the confusion that resulted from the voting on the sewer question and the narrow minority accorded largely on account of the confusion on the issue we know that no vote would have been called if the as tessment picture had not changed you ii tie asked to make a decision in december get the issue clear before that time mayb wv had it may b notl indian summer is not a scientific designa tion but it is a name commonly used to describe the period in autumn which is characterized by calm and absence of rain any period of un usually quiet dry and hazy weather even if it fasts only a few days may be called indian sum mor provided it occurs at any time between the middle of september and the end of november the haze which flits the air at such times is caus d by dust and smoke floating near the earths surface because there is not enough wind to blow t away to say that any definite period in october is indian summer is impossible because there may be a later period of the same kind of weather which would also be known as indian summer sjtutman for rattar farming in most counties and municipalities across canada there is a man doing one of the most important obs in the country he is the local agricultural representative called ag rep by the majority of farmers right here in halton county j e whitelock is the farmers professional counsellor he ad vises on the suitability of soils what crops should be grown identifies plant and animal diseases and works out pest control programs he answers countless questions on farm econ pnncs helps organize farm clubs and breeders associations and lectures extensively to rural groups on the newest methods of modern farm management i the field of an agricultural representatives hn ntrf lift is dedicated of cost to thamsatves a new generation has grown up since the inauguration of agricultural representatives and these young farmers give their wholehearted cooperation to him in the various farm activities he inspires for they know it pays handsome dividends fr tka p41 ftrtt down in quebec it is proposed to legalize lotteries with the funds to be used for provincial obligations such as education or some other scheme that sounds well to get the plan across with tre public in toronto this year citizens are to vote on having sunday sports with admissions and all the sate that goes with such events these are but the wedgs trying to be driven into our present way of living that will make greater gam or profit for somelxidy a lottery i ke a bar room is no better run by a government than by an individual both are out for all the gain there is in it and experience has proven that government control of the liquor pro lem has teen a rank failure it will ie even worse wih lotteries and if quebec gets sanation for pro vincial gambling it will not le very long until t very province across the dominion will be camoung for a share m the uicy revenue re cardies of the

free rinks not content with their take on six days in thr week the pro motors of professional sports want the sunday opened for their gam and use any means to gain their end put sunday professional sports in toronto and every hamlet will have a money making day on sunday governments whether they be municipal provincial or federal can best give service by giving heed to the general welfare of all the people rather than the clamoring selfish interests cf the few another butter story rosy picture was pa nttd in thi up his a commons a lew weeks aqo of thr was selling now slates the f m ncifl1

the tax f iyir exact details of the amount arc still not mvealed but an estimate of 60 million pounds has not been denied the government announces that this butter is for sate at approximately 60 cents per pound but again is rather vague about actual buyers such is the story of government operated business on your money wartime necessities are over why the need for the de partment of

usually knows more about the farm er s farm than the farmer himself hisvork starts early in the morning and continues well into the night a graduate from an agricultural college he is expected to possess a vast fund of knowledge on practically very phdse of agriculture yet the remuneration he receives for his work is quite modest in fact too small for the valuable services rendered farmers are indeed privileged to have the arvket of soch an advisor without a penny highways and livestock it is generally believed by motorists that if an accident is caused on the highway through collision with livestock that the owner is there fore responsible for all damages this apparent ly is en erroneous idea a number of recent accidents caused by cattle straying on to the highways has focussed attention on the liability involved in these cases of a criminal and civil nature j d miller deputy minister of highways for cntano explains that under amendments to the highway improvement act of two years ago a farmer or owner of cattle cannot be sued for any damage caused by the animals while roaming or crossing a highway even though the owner may be at fault in permitting the animals on the highways and an accident results he faces only a nominal fine on conviction and cannot be held financially re spoosible for damages arising from the accident this change was made to prevent farmers from losing their property and life savings by being held financially responsible for the damage a toammg animal might do by getting out onto a highway he slated while a railroad company is obligated to maintain for all time fencing along their right of way to keep cattle off the tracks the provincial government as owners of highways is not re quired to undertake the same obligation m con nection with roads the obligation in this in stancerrests with property owners whose iand5fl border the highway thi atijjh hi hurih of a t in took iht 1- id i hip if th c oit t lvil s fthlll i i t df mum the
