hussell Review Box 359 ® Russell, Ontario © Phone 445-2080 Vol. 2, No. 19 "You make the News" June 3, 1977 Election June 9 -- Three Candidates AZ A Jean Albert Belanger Conservative Jean-Albert Belanger, Con- servative -- At 55, Jean-Albert Belanger is running for his fourth consecutive term as MLA for the riding. While he doesn't see any real issues, he admits his opponents may have something to say about unemployment, OHIP rates and flooding of the Ottawa River. "The only way to cure unemployment is to boost construction, boost a bit of everything, but that can't be done until after anti-inflation measures come off," he says. The only way to cope with cars speeding on village streets is for township council to write a letter to the O.P.P. with a copy sent to the provincial member. "As a last resort, a letter outlining the problem should be sent to the Ontario police commissioner," he said. "If he doesn't do anything, | will." The party deputy-whip lives in Sarsfield. He has five children from two marriages. vying for Prescott-Russell N.D.P. Joseph E. Cleff, N.D.P. was born in Clarence Creek and resides in Prescott-Russell. He obtained his Masters Degree in Education from the University of Ottawa. Mr. Cheff is a Principal for the Ottawa Board of Education. N.D.P. PRESCOTT AND RUSSELL ELECTION ISSUES 1.

CAUTION -- We have to fight for justice and dignity. | believe we have to get involved but we have to work with the Lord who penetrates our hearts with love. for Philbert Proulx Liberal The 50-year-Old former Hawk- esbury mayor sayS a new cheese factory for the riding is of major importance. He says the factory, which could be built anywhere in the riding, would employ 35 people and create 100 additional jobs indirectly while providing local farmers with an alternative to the St. Albert factory to ship their milk. As it is, most farmers have to ship their milk to Montreal, he says. Villages like Russell where speeding cars are a problem should have a resident by-law enforcement officer to take the place of sporadic police patrols. He charges the Davis govern- ment with overspending while calling for a voice in Toronto. Mr. Proulx is employed by Canadian International Paper in Hawkesbury and is married with two children. Sidewalk Talk by Mark Van Dusen Tractor Seat, Needles, Dab of Green Paint keep Russell's World Goin' Round Doc Kinnaird is back behind the plunger end of a needle after a well-deserved two-week stay with relatives in Halifax to recover from illness. Welcome back, Doc. The registry office is looking for space. Registrar Wendell Stanley says the growth of new subdivisions in the township in recent years has left filing and working space in the historic office on Concession Street cramped to' say the least. One proposal, the one favored by Mr. Stanley, would be to build an extension at the rear of the existing building. This would retain the character of the 100-year-old structure while filling the space requirements. Neighbors pooled their re- sources to pay for a fireworks display at the Rudolph Bols farm on Church Street on Victoria Day. Everything went off with flair, however little Gray Rodier was frightened by his first exposure to the flashing and banging. A stint in the seat of farmer Bols' tractor soothed him. Gray, pretty soon your feet will reach the pedals! It's never too late for thanks. Several weeks ago, the fire department put its new pumper to work hosing away the winter's accumulation of dust and debris from the asphalt apron along the main street. It was a job well done for. the second year in a row at the inspiration of Jim Boone. Keep up the good work. postmaster hospital Carrie and Former Hall is out of _recuperating from illness with son Jim and family in Metcalfe. Gord and Enid Beeton ran into some trouble opening _ their cottage for the season. Seems they ran into some tough mustard but finally got things running smoothly with the help of some borrowed green paint. Ask them about it. Ron and Suzanne Veh have their Dirty Thirty's Oldsmobile out of winter storage. Looks good as ever. The installation of long-await- ed sewers is to begin by the end of this year and to be completed some time next year. The sewers will service the village proper, including the older section of Church Street south of the river. The province ordered the sewers to help clean up the river. Many ratepayers will be faced with tax increases of at least a couple of hundred dollars based on an initial installation cost and a charge per foot frontage of property. There's not much point in refusing to hook up. You'll be charged anyway. The weather was _ ideal for traditional Victoria holiday week- end garden planting and, judging by the freshly-tilled plots, most residents took advantage of it. It didn't matter much to Jim Rombough who gambled the frost wouldn't be too severe and planted his garden more than a month ago. His potatoes are already well up. Looks like he's ahead of the game. For the second year in a row, the township's revenues out- weighed expenditures in 1976, further reducing the accumulat- ed deficit to $19,151. Expendit- ures. totalled $1,429,321; re- venues, $1,545,915. Three years ago the accumulated deficit was $97,443. The figures are contained in the annual audit prepared by the accounting firm of Seguin, Prefontaine and Patenaude. The accumulated deficit of the police village of Russell was also further reduced last year, from $4,371 to $4,072. Expenditures (continued on pg. 7) Dugdale. POLL 156 POLL 157 POLL 158 Gregor.

Pommainville Many farmers still believe that summer feeding of dairy cows is as simple as letting the cows on pasture alone. This myth should be de-emphasized if a prolong- ed milk flow is desired and the prevention of butterfat depress- ion is expected. There is as much need for a balanced ration in the summer as in the winter. This means a continuous intake by the cows of stored rough- ages, minerals and concentrat- es in order to meet all their needs for efficient milk product- ion. Pasture have long' been proposed as the ultimate for low cost forage for summer feeding. There is little question of the high value of improved, well managed pasture when adequ- ate acres are available. How- ever, under practical conditions, maximum performance from pasture is seldom even partially achieved. Cows on open pastures can waste from 60 to 70% of the crop, which is far from being efficient. The cow as a harvester is rather inefficient, she eats about a 3-inch swath, at the rate of 90 bites per minute, on a normal day, she will spend 8 hours eating, 12 hours laying down (7 hours of which she will be ruminating); if the water source is at a distance, she might only drink once or twice (continued on pg. 2) counde sensational live atthe RUSSELL COMMUNITY CENTRE An evening of dancing to the big band sound of Moxie Whitney, sponsored by the Russell Lions Club in celebration of their 30th Annual Charter Night.
