AJAX AND DISTRICT NEWS John Mills, Representative -- Phone Pickering 355-J-3 By-law On Fences Causes Trustees Much Concern AJAX -- (Times-Gazette Staff Reporter) -- To fence or not to fence? That is the question, and 8 question which has been troub- line the Ajax Board of Trustees a moon. The e difficulty has arisen uy Nain misguided individuals have erected four foot fences up the centre of driveways and have caused their neighbours a great deal of inconvenience, mak- ing it difficult for coal deliveries to be made and creating a definite : as cars entering these narrow driveways of neces- sity take a wide swing from the erous and ha to enact a bylaw which would com- pel the owners to remove these unsightly monstrosities, and yet not penalize those who have beauti- fied their premises and have erect- ed neat little picket fences to pro- tect heir lawns and flowers. In most cases these fences en- croach on the road allowance but conditions are such that they are not an obstruction and the owners have cut grass and kept this strip tidy, a duty which would devolve upon the 'munic if fences were limited to the property line. The blem will be given more study before a by-law is finally passed. In the meantime most concerned could give the matter some thought too, and de- sist from erecting fences over 30" high and embarrassing their neigh- rs. READERS' VIEWS Visitor Has Complaint On By-law Enforcement The Editor, The Times-Gazette. Sir, --As a visitor to the village I would like to comment police officers and efforts to do their article in a news- so ago in which it expected to issue summonses to cover their sure the people of d much prefer to pay a to a courteous and ef- lice force rather than lorcibly removed from the citizens and their visitors by sum- monses on minor technicalities, namely, certain parking rules that other towns much larger deem un- ary to good law enforcement. Ajax needs outside as well as in- de trade, but if visitors are made unwelcome they will go elsewhere. It does not seem to me that Ajax Bee ert 1 fi 8858 iH g = can afford a reputation like that just on account of police officers who feel they must 'throw their weight around" when wearing a uniform. Any town needs to respect its police force, so let us see law en- forcement with a smile and per- haps an occasional warning for first offenders, and ly for visi- tors who are not familiar with the strict Ajax by-laws. Enforce your laws, but not with an "If you don't ike It you know what to do" at- e. After all, constables, the public do pay your wages, so why not earn the respect of the people whose interests you are paid to rotect.. We have a parking prob- em here in Oshawa, too, but our police do not make themselves dis- liked in enforcing our by-laws. ANNOYED VISITOR.

Shortage of Lime Weak Link In Production Farmers of Ontario are some- times oblivious of the fact that a shortage of lime is often the weak- est link in crop production, officials of the Crops, Seeds and Weeds Branch of the Ontario Department of Agriculture reported today. Find- ing of the Department is substan- tiated by a recent statement of Prof. N. R. Richards, head of he Soils Department, Ontario Agricul- tural College, who said: "General- ly speaking there is not nearly enough lime applied at the pres- ent time in Ontario. There are ex- tensive areas in the Province where ground limestone can be used to advantage." Statistics compiled in the Crops | Branch indicate that the use of agricultural limestone has been gradual. In the 10-year period 1941-51, the tonnage increased from 2,100 tons to over 40,000 tons; en- couraging but not nearly enough when the foundation of successful agriculture is a soil plentifully sup- plied with lime, organic matter and phosphorous. CONTINUOUS LOSS The Department points out that soils suffer a continuous loss by the leaching action of rain water The movement of lime in the soil is always downward, It has been found that the average leachng is 557 pounds on bare land, 363 on grassland and 345 pounds on crop rotation. Extensive experiments in England have indicated that there is a greater loss of lime than any Sifter mineral constituent in the soil. Loss of lime occurs through its removal in the crops harvested. An acre of alfalfa for example re- moves about 400 lbs. of lime an- nually. Every steer that walks off the farm takes away 125 lbs. of lime, and in every ton of milk produced there is a loss of about BOWLING LEAGUE TEAM STANDING AJAX -- Standing of teams in the fourth and final series of the Ajax is as follows: Hudson's Bay Dowty Kinsmen and Legion Huxters Sweetman's Transport The Boys Tully Townson Rotarians Marketeria Hill Cornish 4 High averages: D..

Even though the sub- soil may be well supplied, the top soll frequently requires dressings of lime to permit the establish- ment of seedlings. If in doubt about the advisability of using lime on your land, it may be of advantage to obtain a free copy of the publication No. 499 entitled, "Does Your Soil Need Lime?" put out by the Ontario Department of Agriculture. A soil test will also give you the answer. While the use of lime is not re- uired in all parts of the Province, ue to areas of favorable lime con- tent in the soil, the Ontario and Dominion Departments of Agricul- ture in co-operation with railway companies desire to assist farmers who require lime for their soils, by way of getting lime on the farms where needed at the lowest possible cost. To this end railway companies, operating within the Province, have agreed to reduce e standard freight tariff by 25 per cent on the transportation of lime. In addition, the Ontario De- partment of Agriculture will assist by paying 50 per cent of the re- HEADED FOR LONDON Newly appointed U.S. ambas- sador to the court of St. James, Winthrop W, Aldrich, is seen as he boarded a plane at Interna- tional airport in New York to take up his new post in London. duced freight rate not to d $1.50 per ton. In Northern Ontario the maximum is $1.75 and $2.00 per ton according to area. This is a direct subsidy on each ton. In other words, if the freight rate from quarry to Sudbury is $4.40 per ton a subsidy of $2.00 per ton will be paid. The minimum quant- ity transported by rail on which the subsidy shall apply is 30 tons. The total subsidy is paid by the Provincial Department and 50 per cent, up to 75 cents per ton, is claimed from the Dominion De- partment. If the lime is transport- ed directly by motor truck from quarry to farm, a maximum grant of $1.00 per ton is available on the basis of three cents per tom per mile. TRUCK SPREADING Limestone spreading by truck, directly from the car to the field, lime-spreading truck can carry about six tons, or so, which | is loaded directly from the car, or quarry. As soon as the truck is loaded, the driver proceeds to the farmer's field, engages the lime spreading unit which is operated on a transmission take-off, and spreads the limestone, in a belt about sixteen and a half feet wide, at about a spbed of three miles an hour. The rate of application may be varied to suit the farmer's field requirements, Rheumatic PAIN Good news for those who long for relief from rheumatic pain, but feel hopeless!

THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Wednesday, April 15, 1953 § BOWMANVILLE AND DISTRICT Representative--Donald Hendry, 113 King St. E., Phone 881 Swans Visit Bowmanville But Defy Photographers BOWMANVILLE -- An interest- ed throng of amateur ornitholog- ists beat a path to Bowmanville Beach yesterday to observe a group of swans that had s for a rest in the course of their northern flight. Word of the birds' arrival swept town quickly, and many citizens plann early evening excursions to the lake to instruct their families in the finer points of bird watching. The six swans, huge birds, with wingspreads from four to five feet, denied ardent photographers, including The Times-Gazette re- porter, an opportunity to snap the graceful creatures as they fed ta the marsh by the lake. It seemed the great white swans resented the intrusion, and carefully remained within long range observing dis- tance, but refused to come within range of the disappointed shutter- ME al experts stated that although the birds will probably remain here for at least several days, their stopover was somewhat of an event, since this species is rapidly reduc- ing in numbers, and it may be some time, if ever again, that the northbound swans honour Bowman- ville with their visit. Lone Motorist Only Case Before Court BOWMANVILLE -- Bowmanville Police Court yesterday held an un- usually short session. One case was reviewed in which an erring mot- orist was fined $5 plus costs for failing to stop at an intersection while entering the highway through Newcastle.
