at their most recent meeting to take preliminary steps to look into the possibility of improving the situation although laud had previously been bought with the intention of placing a third res- rvpir the councillors decided that if possible they would increase the flow into the present reservoirs from the west spring now unused with the hope that this will meet the demand while it is doubtful that the present reservoirs will ever oe able to meet the requirements tho idea of increasing the supply running may be given a trial if it should be found that the pre sent reservoirs could supply the de mand with more flow then a great deal of expense will be saved in constructing a third reservoir it is argued it was proposed to consult well driller boadway of sutton who may be asked to meet the council on the reservoir property and consider the feasibility of boring more wells for additional supply of water of course this scheme may be abandoned in favor of building a third reservoir for which purpose an engineer would likely be em ployed council also discussed the pro posed west end main extension and it is the intention to carry on this work ithis fall as per resolution of tho

hundreds of dol lars during the past few days says a daily press report although the farmers receive a percentage of the value of tho con demned animals from the govern ment iu compensation they bear the brunt of tho loss whole herds have been wiped out iu some sec tions eightyfive cattle were con demned within a mile and a quar ter alongthis road robert giles a german mills farmer declared it cost the government 24 00 in com pensation one farmer i know lost his whole herd of 30 cattle another 1g and another 15 they will have to be replaced as soon as possible in order to maintain their milk supply to the dairies although milk from tb cows is accepted by the dairies govern ment veterinaries point out that there is a great danger in drinking the milk before it is pasteurized as some farmers families habitually do tb milk is very dangerous for children and records show that there have been more deaths among farm children from tb than among city children where milk is pasteur ized under government supervision tho local situation the above report is not entirely accurate in so far as stouffville dis trict is concerned there has been no deaths here whatever from tb among children drinking unpasteur ized milk on the other hand there is wide spread anger among the farmers protesting the tb regulations while it is said only 10 per cent of herds tested have gone under instances of much greater toll are cited and real hardship is created morgan baker mpp has taken up the matter ana on wednesday was in toronto interviewing the chief heads at queens park a less drastic inspection
