M. Tipper, representative of the Department of Agriculture in Ontario County, that the Provincial Governmgnt has de- cided upon the transfer of the headquarters of the Depart- ment for the County from Whitby to Uxbridge. This is a step which the Whitby people have been hoping against hope would not be taken. But the U. F. 0. members for North Ontario had a strong enough influence to secure the transfer. Mr, Tipper states that the change will probably take place about May 15. Activity has already commenced. in fit- ting up suitable quarters in Uxbridge, and as far as can be seen at present the place will be réady for occupation about the date mentioned. - x The business of the Department is very extensive in South Ontario, and about half Mr, Tipper's time will neces- sarily be spent in this district, so that it is possible that a small office may be maintained for him here. It will be with great regret that the townspeople will see ipper:leave. Whitby. They have made a real place for themselves in the community, afd have a host of friends. Mr. Tipper has been a valued member of the Board . of Education, and has also taken an active part in many mat- - ters for the benefit of the town, particularly in the way of horticulture. = He will be very much missed, but it is welcome news that he will spend at least part of his time here. ° --Whitby Gazette.
