We understand the proposed Town By­Law limiting a tax-payer within the town limits to three cows, three hogs or sheep was recommended 4ft the Colnlil by the Board of Health. This act is suppose to rid the town of flies. Balderdash. A filthy yard vdth throe a^ii^als, pigs or cows w.11 have plenty of flies. If owners of stock were made to keep their pens clean no such nuisance By-Law would be necessary. Anyway it wll be like 99-44/100 of the other By­Laws, never enforced. The Souunils pet act is the Traffic By-Law. A driver who parks at the wrong angle or the wrong side of th' road is in for a rough ride. A child­ish act in a country town. "Wnsre is the money coming from they isk?" If you hive received your tax notice from the Town Coluiil or the Sugar City M.D® No. 5. You would know.
