WEDNESDAY, AUOUST 31. 1032 THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE f Make Meadows Pay Ontario utiuully hait aliout four unUi oiif-half inil'ioti acres of hay i-rops , each yoar. In passing across the. lirovinct- iiisl lu-foro hayint; oiio can- not help ft'olinK that many of these acres are not |>ayin(f the taxes and the cost of handling the crop. Stalls- i tical reports indicate an average yield of only one and one-half tona to the acre and this can ccrtainlyl be much improved upon. For the meadows, Kood diainajje and sweut soil arc very important. Roots of Rra.ssc!~ and tlovcix are slow to penetrate wci .soils and wherever there is u surplus of water on the i^(^ll, air ii> shut out and licncc the bacterial life ia cither weakened or killed. Aiiuiher point In meadow iinprovenivnt its the u.se of •hiKh «iualily seed. If poor seed is used the nuadow staits out with a handicap. ^ Good drainaKe, jfood seed and ft liberal supply of suitable ferti lixer make j>rofii<ible meadows.

Emerson J, Bennett FLESHERTON 'I'liunc 7S \\ I' heliver Amwhere Considerable criticism was directed •iKainst County Kn^ineer R. C. Mc- Knight at the reKular .November ses- sion of the Grey Coutity Council last year aiwi thereby received publicity of an unfavorable character. No charfces had been laid directly against- Entrin- cer .McKniRlil, but suKKCstions had been made that the County was beins overcharffed. These suffifestions were aired at most of the nomination! meet- inffs throuKhout the County last November and December and were H:ivcii thorouKli publicity. At the January ses.uon the matter was attain 'orouffht up and a resolution wa» pass- ed callinpT for p. provincial audit of the books of the Engrincer. There was no suKKestion made that he had lone anything dishonest, but in order Ihat the air misrht be dearr'd it was deemed advisable to have thi". auJit made, and Mr. MiKnight coincided with the views of the Council. One (if the main objections was that Mr. McKni^bt had hired additional help at a lower price than lie had charged the County for hi.- services. The pro"ir.cial audit was not mada. but on AuMTUst 10th Mr. W. H. Brown, chief accountant of the Department, of HiKliways, went to Owen Sound and in the office of Mr. John Parker, CoUTity Treasurer, investicrated the accounts of the Engineer and found them to be in perfect order and his positio.. was vindicaked in every re- spect conforminft- with the asreemcnt which ho hold.s with the County Council. Engineer McKniprht has been Riven a clean sheet by Mr. Brown afcain.st the chai'ges of ovcrcharg;ins; in his work with the Grey County Council. In Mr. Brown's opinion there was no need of a provincial audit as the County Council has the power at any time to cancel the ex- isting arrangements and enforcinpr any new agreement which may be entered into. Warden Allan Bell, Ex-Reeve Herb. Corbctt of Artemesia, chairman of the Goc^d Road.-i Committee of the Council and County Road .Supt. Jobs Johnston wore present at the scrutiny of the accounts.
