PRICEVILLE EXPENDITURES ARE RAISING ON SHEEP KILLED BY DOGS IN ARTBMESIA TOWNSHIP The menkce to aheep breeders of doffs running at Imrge at night throu- ghout the township itill continues, without abating any, since the by-law was passed prohibiting dogs from run- ning at large between seven p.m. and six a.m. Already the claims for sheep Icilled ar.d worried by do^ has am- ounted to nearly three hundred dollars more than the whole of last year. Up to October 1st the council of the Town- ship of Artemesia has paid out in sheep claims $868.75, and the total for the whole year of 1926 only am- ounted to 1690.75, and we understand that there are several claims already to be dealt with at the next council meeting. The by-law prohibiting the dogs running at large after night seems to be regarded by dog owners in the township with indifference as very few take the trouble of seeing that their dogs trc closed in. At nomin- ation time in various discussions we hear reference made of a councillor spending a few dollars here and there where the .speaker thought the ex- penditure was not called for; or a piece of work that was not up to much; and blamed the council there- by adding to the tax burden un- necessarily. Now, if the tax payers working with the council in keeping the tax rate down, no better way could be found .than complying with the Dog By-Law, a.s passed by the council. BUILT SWA.MP SIDEWALK The Village Council has finished building the sidewalk at the cemetery swamp, which was torn up when the road improvements were made several years ago. It will be welcome to the residents of the southern side of the village. i .^ VANDELEUR * Tr.e Anniver.«ary .services in Vandel- eur ihurch on Sunday October 16th â- were very largely attended. Rev.
