Smith says his shop is more than willing to answer questions concerning tire safety, but urges people to inspect their tires, checking first for brand name and the tire size and location identifier. The tires voluntarily recalled by Ford have "VDHL" after the size number, indicating they came from the Decatur plant. "The first thing to check is the brand name," he says. Anyone with tires on the recall list will receive replacements worth up to $ 150 per tire. Ford recommends that if you have tires on the recall list, "maintain tire pressure at the recommended level" until they can be replaced.

By Paul Mcgef Equity Editor PONTIAC — Atomic Energy of Canada Limited's Chalk River Laboratories (CRL) wants to clear the air about its installation on the Ottawa River and the kind of work done there. To do so. CRL has introduced two publications, the one-time tabloid, "It's time to clear the air," and the quarterly CRL Community News. The former publication was mailed to 33,000 residences in Pontiac and Renfrew counties at the end of August, while the Community News will be mailed this week. "We have expanded our community relations program," says Donna Roach, public affairs consider us to he good neighbours No secrets Part of this negative sentiment may be due to CRL's secrecy in the past.

While most farmers use a combine these days, Campbell still likes to get a group together and thresh grain like it was done in the old days. "That’s what built this country, people working together, so we’re doing it like the old threshers did it,” he said. His three steam engines from 1895. 1896 and 1911 consistently fed power to three threshing mills on Saturday. Campbell welds all his own parts in order to keep the machines in working condition. "We restore the best and junk the rest," he said. Nowadays, oats is the most commonly-grown grain. Once the sheaves are threshed, the oats is used for cattle feed. il r / 02 A ‘Scissors’ cuts 400 pot plants '= r * -4 !3h SHEENBORO 400 pot plants last week from a plot of Crown land near Coale Lake, north of Sheen boro. Acting on a tip, two officers from the Pontiac MRC Sûreté du Québec and two officers from the SQ’s major crime unit in Hull seized the plants as part of the province-wide Operation Scissors, which began last year to combat the multi-million dollar marijuana-growing industry. The SQ estimates the value of the 4(X) plants at $800,(XX). "We received information from the public (about the plants)," says Const. Marc Ippersiel, SQ spokesperson. The Sheen boro yield was the tenth search in the Outaouais in the past week. Ippersiel says police pulled $5-million worth of pot plants near Mont Laurier. Police have no suspects in the Sheen boro bust and are asking anyone with information to phone the SQ's information line at 1-800-71I-1800. Police pulled However, when Campbell was a boy, wheat was the popular grain, and once it was threshed, it was ground on a stone to produce flour for bread. ^ 3 \ â "This is how they got a loaf of bread on the table in the 1890s and early 1900s." He was only ten years old in 1948. when steam engines went out and gas tractors came in, but he learned about the process by watching his parents. In fact, he specifically remembers watching his father thresh white beans using one of the threshing mills he used Saturday. Campbell had engineers on hand to run the engines for the event and people f rom all over North America came to pitch the sheaves into the mills. David Strong, president of the Smiths Falls Railway Museum of Eastern Ontario, ran the oldest engine. I’ve had steam in my blood since I was a young lad," he said. Strong observed steam threshing as a child at his grandparents’ farm near Perth. "Steam was what developed the industrial age." he said. It’s certainly wonderful to be able to participate in steam-powered threshing in this day and age." Strong said the water-and-wood-powered engines push the steam through a high-pressure cylinder and then into a low-pressure cylinder, while a valve drains the water from the engine. Tom, Quinnell, of Huntingdon, ran the most recent model. Quinnell runs steam engines for a hobby and has been a regular at Campbell’s event for the past five years. He said w hen threshing was done the old way, the work was done by crews of about 10, rather than individually, as threshing is done with a combine. "This is more community-oriented." he said. Beiler Elises, an Amish man from New Holland, Pennsylvania, came to the threshing show for the first time. "When I was a boy. everyone had grain," Elises said. Nowadays, he said most of the farmers in the area w here he lives grow com and hay. When the threshing was done around 3p.m. the entertainment began. Local musicians performed in the barn, using fiddles and guitars and food was served to satisfy the workers’ appetites.

Well, that saying was made even more credible with the signing Monday of the new health care deal between the first ministers and the federal government. YOUR OPINION Home again in the Pontiac CHIP response Albert Armstrong. The people on tour just couldn’t believe what they were seeing and many people spoke to us later of this greeting as the best of the whole tour. We personally wish to thank Mayor Armstrong, his council and the many volunteers that made this stop one that will be remembered by all of us. Also a special thanks to Eric Campbell for suggesting that Laura and I ask the tour to come through Pontiac. At Quyon the Lions Club catered an excellent lunch at a better than reasonable cost and again many local people came to see the cars and talk with these people from all over Canada. Thank you Lions and Lionettes for a job well done. We arrived home to Quyon on Sept. 2, after having a wonderful trip, it is good to be home in Pontiac. Dear Editor, Yes, the Robinsons, as well as others, did receive a letter from the manager's office stating that CHIP EM is changing its policy in order to meet programming costs. The letter did leave room for negotiations. I was. therefore, very disappointed to hear the Robinsons announce that their broadcast of Aug. 20th was their last. 1 am also very disappointed that no one (a business or a social club) has stepped forward to sponsor their show. Religious programs and Gospel music arc very much a part of our programming. We certainly appreciate all that the Robinsons have done over the years and we would hope that they could continue to share their music. It was just last week that Quebec Premier Lucien Bouchard considered opting out of the deal because of the condition attached to the transfer payments whereby the provinces would have to spend said money on health care and health care only. Bouchard called that condition "odious blackmail." Ontario Premier Mike Harris also balked initially and when you have the premiers from the nation's two largest provinces stalling .... Dear Editor. My w ife and I have just completed part of the Coast to Coast Antique Auto Tour. We left home on July 14 and drove to Winnipeg where we met the tour group that had left Victoria, BC on July 8. The group averaged about 150 cars, many with trailers. The welcome we got, as we travelled east, varied from nil to sort of half-hearted until we made the first stop in Quebec. That stop was Aug. 5 at Shawville and the whole town lined the streets to welcome the tour. A brief stop at the fairgrounds where we got to talk with local people and the Kinsmen Club served us free coffee and donuts. A certificate and pin from the town was presented to all by Mayor However, the deal was struck after Ontario ensured Quebec the deal would not mean federal intrusion into health care, which is under provincial jurisdiction. Bouchard credited Harris as being a "strong, stable and great contributor" to the deal.

Tomato blight infests Pontiac But, the confirmation of politics as the art of the possible perhaps came when Bouchard thanked Prime Minister Jean Chretien for his "great support. Bouchard went a step further, saying he admired Chretien's patience, while admitting he himself had "a lot to learn" when it comes to patience.

COBDEN Brian Corriveau, Pontiac zone president and Pee wee Lions coach, wasn’t discouraged by the rather low turn out for the four “CC” try-out camps in Cobden last weekend. But he was rather encouraged that the players came out for a skate and most of them for the first time. % 4 i ! I a A, U > \ . 3 i I oàtf ¦ / V M In the four years of “CC” hockey, the participation in the opening camps is generally low and all most nonexistent for the Midgets and Bantams, like last year. This time, the Midget “CC” seemed to have drawn more attention than previous years with 13 skaters and Corriveau is waiting to see if there are any cuts from other teams like the “AA” in the city, Junior “B” and even other “CC” teams in the Outaouais. “It’s a good start,” said Corriveau, noting that the players themselves were quite positive. “If the other players don’t think it’s going to go, it is.” As for the other levels, Corriveau said that six were in the Atom camp, 13 in the Peewee and six in the Bantam. But he is expecting more and knows of a few that couldn’t make the first round because of other commitments like the hunting course that were offered on the same weekend. More ice time has been set up for try outs this Friday night in Renfrew with the Atoms skating at 5 p m. and the Peewee at 6 p m. Then on Sunday, the Bantam go at 6 p m. and the Midgets get an hour and a half, starting at 7 p m.
