Reeve Donald Plaxton, a local lawyer, commented with a smile that his business had fallen off during the festal season as the number of impaired drivers had dropped drastically. When Councillor Lois Hancey claimed this was due to the rigid spot checks carried out in Metro, Mayor Thomas Broad- hurst quipped, “I’m kind of cynical. I think it was because a lot of people had the 'flu." and Mrs. Hancey countered. “The consensus was it was fear.” Mr. Lazenby, a partner in Al- lencourt Drugs thanked citizens for shopping in Richmond Hill this season. “Every merchant I have talked to gives the same report, of a very evident in~ crease in volume of business,” he stated. Councillor William Lazenby turned over two cheques. each for $100, to Mayor Thomas Broadhurst and a cheque for $50 to Reeve Donald Plaxton at Monday night’s meeting of Rich- mond Hill Town Council. This amount of money is what Mr. Lazenby has‘ estimated his ac- clamation to council saved him. One $100 cheque was made pay- able to York Education Clinic and the other to Thornhaven School For Retarded Children. The $50 cheque goes to the YWCA. “I always leave my feelings right in that chair," declared the reeve. "There are a few little arguments but these are to be expected. It augurs well for 1968." ' Deputy-reeve Gadsby agreed that “We are put here to have minds of our own and to have the good of the township at heart.” Councillor Sumner con- tributed “There are a few little things I’ll take back for 1968, Mr. Gadsby,” and the deputy- reeve apologized to the weave for disagreement at the day’s meeting. When the stormy meeting broke up, Reeve Rumble” com- mented “Regardless of debate and discussion, I believe this has been a very successful year. We would be a poor council if we did not argue." William Masters and Napier Simpson, Thornhill were re- appointed to the planning board for three years, to the end of 1970. Other members are Charles Hoover, council‘s repre- sentative, H. Maynard, Union- ville, Frank Brumwell, RR 2 Gormley, Nicholas Belak, Thornhill. Reeve Stewart Rumble is an exâ€"officio member of the heard. Council also reappointed by resolution, Mrs. W. J.

Last year’s yield competitions fol] tell the story. Highest yielding ers cats (at 107 bushels per acre) son ranked 12th in terms of feed Ve1 produced per acre. Nine of1Jar the higher yielding fields wereIGrz clear bailey and two were mixed l_ey g1ain. The average yield from all corn entries was 126 bushels per acre. It isn't fair to com- pare this to the cereal grains because growing costs are so much higher. But high volume is vital to profit-making these days and any crop that puts up this amount of feed just has to be an important part of the pic- ture. At the average yield, an acre of corn will finish nearly 12 hogs, or take care of the grain ration for two dairy cows for a full year. These facts are enough reason for taking the risk of miserable harvesting weather or storing the crop in a silo as high moisture corn can remove a great deal of this risk. Top yield for corn, at 157 bushels per acre, was the high- est ever in York County. Car- Oats, mixed grain, buckwheat and millet are safe crops and a good way to keep out of trouble, but they just don’t yield enough for York County farms of the present day, Agriculture Rep- resentative A. A. Wall reports. Of greater concern to the dairy farmers was the world- wide as well as Canadian sur- plus production, Russell Rown- tree of Woodbridge told “The Liberal”. Concerned over fore- casts of food shortages dairy Although considerable pro- tests over the quotas were ex- pected at the annual meeting of the Ontario . Marketing Board held at the Royal York Hotel January 4 to 5, these were much less numerous than antici- pated. The quotas were set by the Ontario Milk Board, with ad- justments made from time to time. In reaching the quota the average of all milk produc- ed by farmers in the last five ‘months of 1965 and the first ‘three months and July of 1966 was taken, this was then reduced by 11 percent for average daily shipment. The farmer will re- ceive top rate for 90 percent and second rate for 10 percent; Beginning next month Ontario dairy farmers will begin pro- ducing on the quota system in the province’s milk-price poolâ€" ing operation. This is designed to equalize financial returns for farmers who ship milk to dair- ies for bottling and their less- fortunate colleagues whose milk goes to processors. The dairies have paid about twice as much per gallon for grade A milk than is paid by milk manufac- tuners.

Concerned over fore- s of food shortages dairy Mr. Rowntree reported also that the Ontario dairy farmers are concerned by “milk fill" and milk substitutes". now looming on the horizon. Milk fill is milk with the butterfat removed and replaced with vegetable oils Milk substitutes are about 86 percent water Although not available yet, the large chain stores are showing interest in these products, which could sell for about a third less than milk. They also offer lengthy keep- ing (up to two or three weeks) under refrigeration. Gordon Morrison was the winner of Ti‘aiiways of Canada “Driver of the Year” award for 1967. The award, decided by ballot of the employees, is given on the basis of driving abil- ity, courtesy to customers, care of equipment, etc. It was instituted in 1964- and named the George “Red” Wilkins Award in honor of the senior driver‘for the company. 1|II'__ ,,,,, , ,,_i ,,,__ _ sls_ Mr. Morrison, who was a close runner-up in theiiizote‘in‘iSéfi and‘l‘vzho‘viopped the poll in 1967, does mostly charter and tour work for the company.

Last year they held 35,000,000. The interna- tional surplus has forced the current price on the world market down to 13 cents from 15 cents. While butter stockpiles have been reduced from record levels in the early 1960,s the com- mission has a “really serious problem" in surplus skim milk powder, he said. farmers throughout the world increased production and are years ahead of themselves, says Mr. Rowntree. This was confirm- ed by Chairman Dr. S. C. Barry of Canadian Dairy Commission who told the producers at their annual meeting that butter pro- duction may have to be curbed to end huge surpluses of pow- dered milk.
