VICTORIA SQUARE VICTORIA SQUARE UNITED CHURCH QUICK RESULTS FROM LIBERAL ADS Editor, The Liberal Sir:â€" I was surprised to read in your3 valuable paper some objections from certain farmers expressed at Markâ€" ham council meeting against the testing of cows for T. B. As I un- derstand it the cause of the comâ€" plaint is that so many of the cattle are condemned that it is a hardship. As I understand it a farmer receives two thirds of the valuation for a cow that is condemned and in addi- tion gets whatever the carcass is worth for meat. I don’t think any- thing could be more fair, and Why anyone would want to keep a dis- eased animal around the place for is beyond me. I am sure the great majority of farmers will heartin a- gree that they are better off withâ€" out the diseased animals- which are capable of spreading this dread af- fliction. Some farmers may have a smafil loss if they have many go down but I am- sure in the long run the farm- ing community and everyone else will benefit greatly. AMATEUR CONTEST Richvale Social Club will hold an Amateur Contest in Richvale school Wednesday evening, October 7. Good prizes. Entries will be received by Mr. P. Sparks, President, Mrs. W. J.
