please!

the bridge and grist mill.She mentioned Gebbie's Store, the Temperance Hall and the railway station, built when the railway came to Howick in 1883.She talked about \u201cthe Pink School\u201d built in 1914-15, the early Curling Club on the English River built in 1885, the Georgetown Church erected in 1851, and the Allen\u2019s Corners Monument.Other buildings prominent in local history are the barn which won the Gold Award twice, the big barn built by James McKell in 1902, a typical farm house called \u201cThe Abbott House\u201d, the \u201cGardner House\u201d, and the one-room Riverfield Schoolhouse.She also depicted the house where she had lived in Fertile Creek, which was built around 1850.During the ensuing discussion, members offered facts about Howick history.They mentioned the Gebbie Grist Mill, originally constructed in 1832, which remained operational until 1920; Dunn's Electric Power Company.the first settlers, and the Model School built in 1912 and gutted by fire in 1946.President Ann MacLeish brought members up-to-date on the Federal Women's Institute Convention being held later in June in Lennoxville.Hostesses for the afternoon were Thelma Peers and Isabel Templeton.(JG/JT) Compact disc, 5 year 100,000 km | Per = a Reg.: $16,755 2003 CAVALIER 4DR 2003 ALIBU V-6, auto, pwr windows, door locks, mirrors cruise, compact disc, remote entry.*: See dealer for details Reg.: $25,375 2003 1] PALA V-6, auto, pwr windows, door locks, mirrors, cruise, compact | *: See dealer for detalls 2003 VENTURE VAN 717 passenger, v-6, auto, 264-6163 * HUNTINGD P: ACCIDENT REPAIRS BOO Sa S, CURTESY CARS \u2019 L: 264-6411 HUNTINGDON \\ MOTORS IN INC.pwr windows, door locks, mirrors, compact disc, 5 year The Ormstown Saracens Rugby Club had a busy month of July, starting with league games on July 12.The Women travelled to Montreal to play against the Division II Town of Mount Royal Women.The Lady Saracens played an intense game and showed tremendous heart, playing two girls short for most of the game.As the second half began with the wind in TMR\u2019s favor, the home team began to substitute first-division players.With persistent pressure from fresh, experienced players, TMR finally scored in the dying minutes of the game sealing their victory, 10-7.Despite the heartbreaking loss, the Saracens showed they could play against experienced girls from the first division.Katherine Caza had an impressive 60-yard tackle-breaking try in the first half, and Christine Caza made the conversion.Schedule change The Division 1I Ormstown Men were to play at home against Trois Riviéres in a game which was rescheduled by the league from 3 p.m.to 5 p.m.When the visitors showed up at 3 and found the time had been changed, they refused to stay.The Ormstown Men were disappointed as they had been looking forward to facing their stiffest competition in the Division.The Quebec Rugby Federation later ruled that the outcome of the September 6 match in Trois Rivières would count for two games.The Saracens Men travelled to St-Jean- sur-Richelieu July 19 to play the Barracudas.The Men played a well-bal- anced game, scoring 35 points on offence and not allowing anything on the defensive side.Try scorers were Ben Racine and winger Jason Aldridge with two each and Brendan \u201cTroy McClure\u201d Boyle and Rick \u201cNed Flanders\u201d Authier with one each.Trevor Lane converted one try and made a ine Qikadbp » July 30, 2003 5 3 40-yard penalty kick to complete the scoring.Final score was Ormstown 35, St-Jean 0.Shut-out win On Thursday July 24,the men\u2019s team played the make-up game, originally set for June 14 (Ormstown Fair) versus Beaconsfield.At half-time the game was scoreless, but the Saracens prevailed, winning the game 17-0.Scoring for the Saracens were: 8 man Ben Racine and Stephane \u201cWilly\u201d Ouellet with a try each.Trevor \u201cThe Boot\u201d Lane did the rest of the damage with two conversions and a penalty kick.Two at home This past weekend there was a doubleheader at CVR for the Saracens as the ladies hosted Ste-Anne-de-Bellevue and the men received the Laval Nomades.The ladies played tough against a more experienced team but came up a little short, losing 20-18.Scoring tries for Ormstown were Katherine Caza and Josianne Riendeau.Christina Caza had two penalty kicks and a conversion.The guys had an easier time, defeating Laval 30-0.Try scorers were Martin \u201cSpeedo\u201d Chartrand, Tyler \u201cI'm only 17\u201d Gill, Nick \u201cBruiser\u201d Sundborg, Joe \u201cHeffner\u201d Gagnon and club captain Ben Racine.Trevor \u201cthe Boot\u201d Lane rounded out the scoring with one penalty kick and a conversion.Congratulations to Tyler Gill who played on the Quebec U-18 Men's Team at The Eastern Canadian Junior Championships.The tournament was held July 18-20 in Fredericton NB.The Quebec team placed third overall.Next weekend, August 2, the women play rivals Trois Rivières at CVR;

farrowing, feeding, fattening, etc.- is posited on economies of scale made feasible by external demand.What impact would such a tariff increase have on the balance sheets of the companies which contract out production quotas to farmers, including several in this area?It is not reassuring to be so dependent on markets over which we have no control, although there are many who would rejoice if the whole mega-pork complex were to crumble like a house of cards.JT) -

12 Bengal tigers, part of the menagerie at Parc Safari Africain, escaped from their compound Monday night and at time of writing (Tuesday noon) three of the animals remained on the loose.The compound in question housed 17 Bengals and was apparently left unlocked through human error.Three of the tigers returned to the barn-like compound without persuasion.Six were felled by darts from tranquilizer guns by 4 a.m.Tuesday.The three remaining escapees may have made their way outside the confines of the park.A Tuesday afternoon radio report indicated that the tigers were sighted by the QPF helicopter and their capture was expected to take place momentarily.Howe.\u201cI should like to remind farmers and farm workers.living in areas where they can spare time from their normal agricultural pursuits, that their postponement will not be affected by engaging temporarily in cutting firewood,\u201d said Mr.Howe.\u201cI might point out, however, that such temporary absences from the farm must not interfere with agricultural production.\u201d MILLS ENLARGING Progress and economy will march hand in hand as two of Huntingdon\u2019s mills proceed with pans to enlarge their plants.Huntingdon Woollen Mills Ltd.have had plans in hand for some time for making additions to their plant, but pressure of other work and shortage of labour have delayed them.The firm of Fawcett & Grant Ltd.Is also intending to make an extension to the present mill premises, and excavation work has already started.COSTLY WATERWORKS Huntingdon will have to spend at least $827,000 to modernize and expand its filtration plant to meet anticipated water needs up to 1980.That information was presented to the town council at a Thursday night meeting with two representatives of the engineering firm pf Lea Benoit & Associés.Initial reaction to the price tag involved was one of shocked disbelief.\u201cNow hold it a minute,\u201d exclaimed alderman George Lazure.\u201cWe can\u2019t do all this at once.\u201d THIS AND THAT IN TOWN We all know that Dutch Elm disease has destroyed many stately trees in the Chateauguay Valley - but what is causing Mountain Ash (Rowen (sic)) trees to wither?Leaves are turning red as they usually do in October.\"GLEANER 66 Chiteauguay St., Héndos Huntingdon, Qc, JOS 1H0 Momeragiuns Tel.: (450) 264-5364 ; Fax: (450) 264-9521 info@gleaner-source.com {ES HEBDOS § André Castagnier acastagnier@gleaner-source.com Judith Taylor U.S.A.$37.50 U.S., $55.00 Cdn.U.S.REG.NO.USPS 580-300 PERIODICALS POSTAGE PAID AT CHATEAUGUAY, NEW YORK, 12920 costs las Program (PAP), toward our -

Plusieurs cochons morts ont été entassés dehors sous un soleil de plomb le 15 juillet dernier près du chemin Smaill à Elgin et il s\u2019est écoulé près de sept heures avant qu\u2019un camion d\u2019une firme de récupération de carcasses d\u2019animaux vienne en prendre possession.Les porcs sans vie se trouvaient dans deux conteneurs dont l\u2019un était recouvert d\u2019une toile protectrice.Les bêtes étaient entassées l'une par-dessus l'autre.Quelques-unes d'entre elles ont aussi été retrouvées gisant par terre.C\u2019est un passant qui, apercevant les amas de porcs inanimés, a contacté une autre personne qui s\u2019est amenée un peu Plusieurs cochons morts ont été entassés dehors sous un soleil de plomb le 15 juillet dernier près d\u2019une route de campagne à Elgin et il s\u2019est écoulé quelques heures avant qu\u2019un camion dune firme de récupération de carcasses d\u2019animaux vienne en prendre possession.(photo La Source) plus tard afin de prendre des clichés.Selon ce témoin, entre 25 et 28 corps ont été découverts en bordure du chemin Smaill et qu\u2019il s'agissait de truies adultes.Il appert que ces cochons ont été acheminés en bordure du chemin en tout début d'après-midi et sont demeurés là, malgré une chaleur torride.Une compagnie de récupération d\u2019animaux morts fut contactée et a convenu de se rendre cueillir les corps vers 13h.Finalement, ce n\u2019est qu\u2019en début de soirée, soit un peu avant 20h, que l'entreprise a pu venir ramasser toutes les carcasses.Il va sans dire que la présence de ces cochons morts près d\u2019une route, malgré le temps chaud et humide, a eu tôt fait 16 pages 1,08* a= mare vacances de Ia construction dans Ie Haut Saint-Laurent SIX personnes perdent [a vie de façon tragique Patrice Laflamme Le Haut Saint-Laurent a été durement éprouvé au cours des vacances de la construction qui se sont terminées dimanche dernier.En tout, six personnes ont perdu la vie de fagon tragique durant cette période de la saison estivale.Trois de ces personnes ont trouvé la mort dans des accidents routiers suvenus à cinq jours d'intervalle.Outre ces décès survenus sur les routes de la MRC, trois enfants ont péri dans l\u2019incendie d\u2019une demeure à Hinchinbrooke.Le plus récent de ces accidents mortels s\u2019est produit le jeudi 17 juillet vers 20h40 à Ormstown.La victime est Mike Bergevin, un résident de Saint- Chrysostome âgé de 21 ans.Selon les informations recueillies auprès de la Sûreté du Québec, le véhicule dans lequel prenait place le jeune homme à l'avant a effectué une violente sortie de route face au 2508, chemin Tullochgorum.L'automobile conduite par un résidant de Howick a fait plusieurs tonneaux puis fauché une clôture ainsi qu\u2019un poteau électrique avant de terminer sa course contre un arbre.Deux autres personnes se trouvaient également à l\u2019intérieur de la voiture au moment de l\u2019accident.Deux des occupants ont été éjectés du véhicule.Le conducteur et le passager arrière ont été quant à eux grièvement blessés.Ils ont été transportés au centre hospitalier régional du Suroit a Valleyfield mais leur vie n\u2019était pas en danger.Le décès de la victime a été constaté sur place par les secouristes.Bien que la chaussée était mouillée, la vitesse pourrait être à l\u2019origine de cet autre accident mortel.Quelques jours plus tôt, un automobiliste âgé d\u2019une vingtaine d\u2019années a perdu la vie sur la route 138, à quelque deux kilomètres de la ville de Huntingdon.L'accident est survenu le dimanche 13 juillet en matinée.Le conducteur du véhicule aurait perdu la maîtrise de sa voiture dans une courbe et il a effectué une violente sortie de route.La voiture a immédiatement pris feu et le conducteur, qui était seul à bord de l\u2019automobile, n\u2019a eu aucune chance de s\u2019en sortir.Aucun autre véhicule n\u2019a été impliqué dans l\u2019accident mais la route 138 a été fermée à la circulation durant

comité organisateur a cru bon d'introduire un peu de sang neuf à sa brochette d'activités qui ne manqueront pas de faire le bonheur des visiteurs de tous les âges, qu'ils proviennent de la municipalité ou des environs.La programmation de cette grande manifestation agricole, qui se tiendra les 15, 16 et 17 août prochains, comportera en grande nouveauté des courses de tondeuses à gazon.Organisées par un club de l'Etat de New York, ces épreuves réuniront des engins dans les catégories «stock», «pro stock» et «pro modifié».«Ces machines peuvent atteindre des vitesses de 75 milles à l'heure», précise la secrétaire du comité organisateur, Lynn Ouimet.Cette compétition se déroulera le vendredi soir 15 aout, vers 20h15, peu après la proclamation d'ouverture officielle de la foire.La troupe The Phil Denault Band fera aussi partie des festivités.L'ensemble fera les frais de la soirée dansante du samedi 16 août à 21h.Le groupe rendra alors un hommage particulier au duo de musique country Brooks & Dunn.De plus, le Club optimiste de Huntingdon organise un tournoi de ballon volant qui aura lieu le samedi 16 août sur le site de la foire.Une bourse de 300$ sera versée aux équipes finalistes.Pour s\u2019in- scrire à cette compétition, il faut s\u2019inscrire auprès de Guy Fournier au 264-6072 ou 264-5266, Jean-Luc Crête au 264-6907 ou 264-6269 ou Serge Gosselin au 264-6044 ou 264-9205.Comme par le passé, c'est par un défilé que l'Exposition de Huntingdon se mettra en branle.Le cortège constitué de figurants, de chevaux, de véhicules et de chars allégoriques sillonnera certaines rues de la ville avant de faire son entrée sur le site de l'événement.Après le défilé, les membres du comité organisateur, élus municipaux et plusieurs invités spéciaux seront réunis pour la brève cérémonie d'inauguration officielle qui sera suivie de la dégustation du gâteau d'anniversaire.Tout au long des trois jours de l\u2019Expo de Huntingdon, une pléiade d'activités sont proposées aux visiteurs.Les amateurs d\u2019émotions fortes en auront plein la vue et les oreilles avec les tires de tracteurs et de camions et les compétitions de moto-cross et de véhicules quatre-roues le samedi ainsi que le concours de scies à chaînes et le derby de démolition de voitures lc dimanche.Au fil des ans, l\u2019Exposition de Huntingdon a grandement bâti sa renommée autour du volet agricole de sa programmation.Une fois de plus, les compétitions seront l\u2019occasion pour les producteurs agricoles de se faire valoir.Les concours de jugement de lapins et de volailles et du Club des Jeunes Eleveurs suscitent ans de l'Exposition de Huntingdon toujours un vif intérêt, tant de la part des participants que du grand public.Sur le site, les visiteurs ne manqueront pas d'aller faire un tour aux différents kiosques d'artisanat, de légumes et de plantes.LExposition de Huntingdon se veut aussi un lieu idéal pour venir s'amuser ferme en famille ou entre amis.Les amateurs de bonne musique et de danse se donneront pour leur part rendez-vous sous la tente les vendredi et samedi.Des spectacles de chevaux et d'animaux domestiques se tiendront le vendredi, pour le grand plaisir des petits et des grands.Des tours de poneys seront aussi offerts aux enfants et un mini-zoo a également été aménagé.Les manèges et les jeux d\u2019adresse de la firme Air Bounce Amusements occuperont le site pendant ces trois jours de festivités.Pour obtenir plus de renseignements sur l\u2019une ou l\u2019autre des activités de la 175e édition de l\u2019Exposition de

ce qu'ils voyaient de leurs propres yeux.Avisée de cette trouvaille, la municipalité d\u2019Elgin a immédiatement contacté le ministère de l\u2019Agriculture, des Pêcheries et de l'Alimentation du Québec et le ministère de l\u2019Environnement de même que la direction régionale de la santé publique de la Montérégie pour obtenir des expertises.Les autorités municipales tenaient à savoir ce qui a bien pu causer la mort de ces porcs.Elles tenaient aussi à savoir s\u2019il y avait des risques de contamination pour les autres troupeaux du voisinage et pour la population et cherchaient de plus à savoir ce qu\u2019elles devaient faire pour les protéger si de tels risques existaient.Le propriétaire de la porcherie Marilyne, Mario Vinet, n\u2019a pu être rejoint par The Gleaner/La Source pour commenter le tout.Toutefois, dans une entrevue accordée à The Gazette, il a fait savoir que les porcs sont morts des suites d\u2019une maladie inconnue et qu\u2019il a fait le nécessaire pour que les carcasses soient récupérées.M.Vinet a dit au quotidien anglophone montréalais qu'il a acheminé les bêtes près du chemin Smaill vers 13h pour qu\u2019elles soient amassées par le récupérateur qui devait passer à ce moment-là.Le camion de récupération n\u2019est finalement arrivé que vers 20h.Le producteur porcin a dia se défendre contre les allégations de certains citoyens selon lesquelles des cochons morts se sont retrouvés dehors près du chemin la semaine précédente, soulignant qu'il n'y en aura pas d'autres dans les semaines à venir.Au bureau régional de Sainte- Martine du MAPAQ, un expert, Bernard Brouillette, a soumis à la municipalité l'hypothèse voulant que les porcs seraient décédés des suites de la diarrhée noire.Du côté du MAPAQ, un rapport a aussi été commandé par la municipalité quant à la présence de carcasses d'animaux morts à l\u2019air libre.Victoria Keays Irving Agent immobilier affilié 121 Alexandre, Valleyfield é1.: 371-8878 bureau; \"264-4380 ra @crage

lorsque heurté par un conducteur ivre au volant d\u2019une camionnette à Ormstown le dimanche 13 juillet dernier.Michel Lepage, âgé de seize ans, circulait en vélomoteur sur la route 201 quand il a été frappé par la camionnette.Le jeune homme se trouvait à environ à un demi-kilomètre de sa résidence au moment de l\u2019accident.Ladolescent a été conduit à l\u2019hôpital Barrie Memorial d\u2019Ormstown avant d\u2019être transféré à l\u2019hôpital Général de Montréal en raison de la gravité de ses blessures.Il a finalement succombé à ses blessures le mercredi 23 juillet et son père en a informé la Sûreté du Québec.Le conducteur de la camionnette, Des élèves de l'école Des Jeunes Riverains apprennent tous les secrets du jardinage Patrice Laflamme Les élèves de l\u2019école Des Jeunes Riverains de Saint-Anicet apprennent à avoir le pouce vert.Les jeunes ont constitué leur propre petit jardin, garni de plantes vivaces et annuelles qui atteindront leur pleine croissance s\u2019ils sont bien entretenus et qu\u2019ils bénéficient de conditions météorologiques idéales.Peu avant la fin de l\u2019année scolaire, les écoliers, accompagnés des enseignants, ont pu découvrir tous les secrets du jardinage en plein air, depuis la mise en terre des semis jusqu\u2019à l\u2019entretien des plants.Sur une partie du terrain devant l\u2019établissement, plusieurs bulbes de fleurs ont été mis en terre.Avec l\u2019aide de leurs professeurs et de personnes-ressources du centre de formation professionnelle Des Moissons de Beauharnois, les jeunes ont fait pousser certaines variétés de plantes tels des achillées, des campanules bleus, des tournesols mexicains, des gentianes, des soucis et des rudbeckies totos.«Ces plantes ont été choisies parce qu\u2019elles sont résistantes à la fois à la sécheresse et au soleil», estime Suzanne Courvil, responsable de la politique d'intégration des jeunes en agriculture (PIJA) et enseignante au CFP Des Moissons.Les jeunes ont profité du beau temps pour préparer la plate-bande en vue de l'ensemencement des plantes.Des conseils leur ont été donnés sur la façon de mettre en terre les fleurs et sur comment suivre l\u2019évolution de la floraison.l\u2019école Des Jeunes Riverains a pu compter sur l'aide technique de la municipalité de Saint-Anicet qui a fourni de la terre ainsi que la pépine pour 'aménagement du jardin.Les plants et les semences sont une gracieuseté du ministère de l\u2019Agriculture, des Pêcheries et de l\u2019Alimentation du Québec via la PIJA.La confection de ce jardin à l\u2019école de Saint-Anicet fait partie d\u2019une vaste initiative instaurée pour la toute première année sur le territoire de la commission scolaire de la Vallée-des-Tisserands.Lécole Saint-Eugéne a Maple Grove, les élèves apprennent eux aussi les rudiments de la culture horticole.Selon l\u2019animatrice en vie spirituelle et en engagement communautaire pour les quatorze écoles de la commission scolaire de la Vallée-des-Tisserands Suzie Dansereau, en créant un jardin bien a cux, les jeunes seront en mesure de parfaire leurs connaissances déja acquises a l'école concernant l'écologie ct la préservation des végétaux.Les enfants sauront aussi se familiariser avec toutes les facettes de l\u2019horticulture, à son avis.Ce qui est sûr, c\u2019est que les jeunes ont déjà pris un malin plaisir à jouer les jardiniers amateurs et à en apprendre passablement sur les plantes.«J'ai trouvé cela amusant de faire ce mini-jardin avec les autres élèves, a dit Valérie D.Mailloux, une élève de sixième année qui venait à peine de semer sa bulbe.J'ai appris beaucoup sur les plantes et sur les soins à leur apporter.Pour les plus jeunes, c\u2019est une belle expérience à vivre.» Maintenant que les bulbes de fleurs sont bien insérés, il reste à prendre bien soin de cette plate-bande pour qu\u2019elles fleurissent bien.Ce boulot a été confié aux jeunes de dix à douze ans qui participent cet été au camp de jour à Saint-Anicet, en association avec la municipalité.Les élèves de l\u2019école Des Jeunes Riverains de Saint-Anicet apprennent à avoir le pouce vert en créant leur propre petit jardin.Les

components brought in from other parts of Quebec and Ontario.Their plant was the destination for 14 members of the Hemmingford Women\u2019s Institute, who toured the operation on June 4 before their

key.Locks for schools have a number stamped on the outside lower rim.If a child forgets his number, the school can call the company, where the combination is listed under the number.Plant workers must

humans; understanding this simple fact can make a life-or-death difference for your pet during the hot weather.The truth is, pets are affected more quickly by, and have more striking reactions to high temperatures and humidity than people.This is why an animal must never be left alone in a car.A partially-open window only provides enough ventilation when the car is moving, while parking in the shade offers little protection, as the sun shifts during the day.The heat inside of a parked car can skyrocket in just a few minutes.Here are a few other tips to make summer safe and fun for you and your companion animals: * SHADE - Always provide plenty of shade for a pet staying out of doors.If possible, bring your pet inside during the hottest part of the day and let him rest in a cool part of the house.* WATER - Always provide plenty of cool, clean water for your pet.(When traveling, carry a gallon thermos filled with cold water.) * EXERCISE - Always exercise your pet in the cool of the day - early morning or evening.And be alert to hot pavement, which can quickly burn your pet\u2019s feet.* GROOM - Always keep your pet well groomed, and check often for fleas and ticks.* IDENTIFICATION - Always make sure your dog is wearing a current license or LD.tag in case he gets lost.Consider an implantable microchip for permanent identification.* AGE - Always be extra sensitive to very young, older or overweight animals in hot weather.Certain breeds are more at risk to the heat and should be kept indoors.* BEWARE - Always be alert for coolant leaking from your car or truck engine.During summer, cars are more likely to overheat and overflow; both antifreeze and coolants attract your pet, and ingesting just a small amount can cause an animal\u2019s death.* CAUTION - Always hose down your dog after he\u2019s been swimming in salt water.If you take him to the beach, be sure to provide him with a shaded spot to lie in and plenty of fresh water to drink.* EMERGENCY -
