D. Henry, K. C. of Markdale, County Crown Attorney, for the year 1932. In a letter to the Owen Sound Sun-Times Mr. Henry defends his acceptance of the money on account of the increase of court cases and inquests since the time that the late T. H. Dyre, former Crown Attorney, who received $3,200 for his services. Mr. Henry's reply, in part, is as follows: Mr. Henry pointed out that during the year 1932 ho received in his capacity as County Crown Attorney and Clerk of the Peace the sum ol $9,821.62. From this amount is de- ducted $2,275.38 as his expenses, which includes office help, telephone travelling and hotel expenses. Thert is also a statutory remittance to tht Government of $2,480.30, making a total of $4,655.74, a»'l of which comes out of the total of $9,821.62, leaving a net balance of $5,164.88. Mr. Henry also states that the Government re- funds to the county the sum of $2,- 989.00 due to a working arrangement between the county and the province. Referring to the statement that the late Mr. Dyre had received a total of 83,200 Mr. Henry stated that in 1923 Mr. Dyre commuted his fees for both of the offices he held and that in that year he received $3,010 for his services as County Crown Attorney, $1,500 for hi.s services as Clerk of the Peace, and $100 for expenses, making a total of $4,610.00. Since that time the criminal business of the countj has doubled and tripled, claims Mr. Henry. He gave figures to bear out his contention in th«is regard and pointed out that in 1930 the Crown Attorney attended 131 cases ill police court in the city and county, three cases were prosecuted at the General Sessions of the Peace and eight cases in the County Judge's criminal court. In 1932 there were 357 cases in police court in Owen , Sound and county, I case before the General Sessions and 7 cases in the County Judge's criminal court. Mr. Henry also referred to the num- ber of inquests which he was called upon to attend. He states that in 1930 the late Mr. Dyre attended 9 inquests, and there were but 6 of these in 1932, but he points out that since June 10, 1931, when he assumed office he has had 14 inquests, and there were 202 police court cases from June 10 to December 31, 1931, and 143 police court cases from January 1 to June 10 the same year, prior to his taking office. In 1932 there were 98 liquor control cases as compared to 55 in 1930, showing an increase in the duties of the Crown Attornev. HEALTHY PIGS In an address at the outset of the Swine Demonstration Train, Dr. L. Stevenson, provincial zoologist, em- phasized the importance of'health in growing pigs. Heaithy pigs, if properly fed, should be ready for the market at from six to seven months old. Pigs that did not reach the mar- ket weight at this age were either improperly fed or were not healthy. Internal parasites were one of the common causes of unthrifty hogs, and the farmer should always be on the lookout for possible infection from internal' parasites. Sanitation aud cleanliness were es.sential in the hog industry. Common treatments were recommended which may be secured by writing the provincial zoologist Dr. Lionel Stevenson, Ontario Veter- inary College, Gudph, Ont. Wps. Smith) of Rock Mills. The funeral took place on Monday afternoon when a large number ol friends attended. Sei-vice was held at her late residence and interment took place in Markdale cemetery. Mrs. W. J.
