TG-DAY’S WORK OF COUNTY COUNCIL 1 At the afternoon session of the g County Council the increased grant { of $200 asked for by the local Depart .ment of Agriculture in the interests 1 of School Fairs throughout the coun- Ety was voted. It was pointed out Ethat the experimental plot. with $300, in the rear of the Hospital, is ‘not now needed and could be sold to . the Hospital if the Agncultural Dept. will sell. The Department asked for E 3200 to help pay for a tent needed in 1 the rural school fairs. It was consid‘ lered a great benefit to have the lHairs, so the money was granted. The roads and bridges’ committeel ners, will have a busy time deciding whatg Paleti will be done to various bridges.l gait: Those needing attention are Cross The Greeks, Staples’, Mill pond bridge, eight Coboconk, and the approachw to the one i7 . one in new and far famed Mud Lake lNar- and t1 rows Bridge. eries : The Council met this Thursday morning at ten thirty o'clock and were greeted by two deputations, one in regard to school fairs and the other the Canadian Club, the details of which appear elsewhere. The advisability of retaining the services of the present engineer will be discussed. The reports of the Committees on County Property, Printing and Ap- pointments to Office were read in de- tail and passed without change. That Maripoea wants the stone crusher; a new bridge is desired called the Lan- caster bridge, Omemee bridge needs attention will be considered in Roads and Bridges Committee. Will the Forest House Bridge in Bobcaygeon be replanked? Reeve Bottum asks that it be considered in Committee. EXPERIMENTAL FARM TO BE SOLD Several of the members did not see the necessity of selling the experi- mental plot. Reeve Hawkins wished to maintain the land as it would do for experimental work.

Only one township and a village gave a major- ity against the act. It’s effect will be to abolish thirty-four licenses. The campaign was carried on energetical- ly by both sides. The Dominion Alliance workers terminated their efforts in continued prayer and song service, which lasted all day. The license holders and their supporters feel their defeat keenly, but have taken it good-natur- edly. At Wingham the temperance work- ers of the town and vicinity celebrat- ed the victory with a» thanksgiving service in the town hall. Recount In “'elland Probable. WELLAND, Jan. 30. â€"- Welland County yesterday adopted the Canada Temperance Act by the narrow ma- jority of 19. and there is yet a chance that some of the figures are in error. A recount is almost certain. The first count of the total showed a. majority of 75. Corrected returns, however, reduced it first to 58, and later to 19, at which it stood after repeated verifications. The Township of Pelham, under the Dunkin Act, and Wainfleet and Thorold, under local option, are re- sponsible for ca:rying the act. The liquor interests attribute their defeat to the fact that the temper- ance people were responsible for us- ing old lists in eight municipalities, cutting off about 500 voters, they declare. HEALTH TALK TO The Vote In Peel County. BRAMPTON, Jan. 30.â€"Peel Conn-- ty endorsed the Canada Temperance Act yesterday by a. majority of 54. The majorities in the various town- ships, town and villages were as follows: be present at the County Council ‘ session, addressed the members on ‘ health..ofiicers' duties. and the 31). po‘ntment of an Indigent Health Of- ficer. ‘ ‘ Dr. Clinton said he wished to meet the reeves, because'they were mostly health officers. You should appoint an indigent health officer as a. protec- tion to yourself, he remarked. It is advisable that the schools'ehouldbe inspected for health conditions and the children examined as to their teeth, hearing and eyes. The medical oi‘fiC-sr should make a note 05 the condition of the child and report to the parent, who will undoubtedly have his doctor attend to it. The drinking cut) is one of the worst disease Spreaders and it is ‘prcvem ticn that we aim at. and not curâ€" ing, particularly, said Dr. Clinton.

Mr. Howkins explained that as there were 2000 children in West Victoria, it would cost $1500 with- th mileage to inspect them. Dr. Clinton agreed that the rate was too high, and should be adjust- ed to conditions. Warden Varcoe said they had 13 school sections examined by a doc- tor for ”$.75, and wondered-if they mpaymé too much. ‘ Dr. Clinton believed it was. very reasonable, and should] be satisfac- COUNTY COUNCIL THE LINDSAY POST.

The Finance Committee met at five o’clock when the matter was disposed of. TURONTU WOMAN ‘ WELL AWN McKee and Howkins wished to give 350, While Messrs Smale and McWat- ters desired $100. Reeve Bottum did not think it was fair to grant money to such local events which efiect the small mer- chants in nearby towns, when they could stand alone. He was not nar- row enough to desire this personally, but there were times when the small man gets pinched and he needs help. Warden V'areoe believed the grant had been promised more or less and they were deserving of it. Reeves Dewitt, McKee and Alton, all voiced the idea that the money was not necessary. Deputy-Reeve Warren spoke in favor of it and supported it from a broad standpoint of wide spread advantag- es. It was tradeâ€"a interrupter with him, but was of general good to oth- ers, so he would support it. COST OF BRIDGES. The ‘Cbunty spent $3500 more on bridges than they counted on last year, the extra cost of the Mud Lake Narrows Bridge being responsible to some degree. Mr. Smale said the benefits were mostly accrued by. the outsider and the grant returned to the county. It was only of educational value and the valuable prizes were won by county horsemen. Mr. Howkina said it was a. Xuxury and $50 was enough: Both motions were lost. some degree.

Several Matters Taken up And Disposed'of A letter Was read from the depart- ment of Public Works saying they had a petition from the ratepayers of Rama Township, asking for a grant of $1000 to assist in rebuilding a roadway in that township on the boundary between the Counties of Ontario and Victoria. The communi- cation was referred to the committe: on Roads and Bridges to be held thié afternoon. « The report of the Educational Com~ mittet. was read by Deputy-Reeve Smale and accepted, followed by Reeve Fee reading the Finance and Assessment report. THIS MORNING’S COUNTY COUNCIL Reeve Morrison wanted to know why the Women's Institute received less grant than the Farmers’ Insti- tutes, and he was informed that the county gave both the same amount, but that the government gaye the former only $15 and the latter $35, which accounted for the difierence in total grants.
