ficers of the Federal Works Ad-

county's fundamental allegation
that there is a hidden margin
of profit in the SAB rate. (The

The districts forthcoming
legal fight against the $43 per
million sewage disposal rate
claimed to be exhorbitant-Will
be backed by the active assist
ance of major war plants in the
South Macomb area. These
plants have a major stake in the
intercepto cost problem since
their manufacturing processes
send millions of gallons OF
water-most of it free Of chem
icals and bacteria-into the in
terceptor daily. They resent be-
ing charged for treatment
of what they claim is clear
water.
ASK SLIDING SCALE
Principal contention OF the
district petitioners, aside from
their appeal for a lowed rate,
will be plea that the permit
lion charge be based on a slid
ing scale. AS 1t now stands, the
contract for Macomb sewage
calls TO S43 per million for one
million-or for 1875 million
gallons (the latter an estimate
based on Harper's July 8-l5 me-
ter checks.)
The original contract stipulat-
ing a SAB per million charge by
Wayne against Macomb County
was drawn up more than two
years ago, prior to Harpe'rs re-
gime, before actual costs, stud
les, etc, were available to the
negotiators.

To enable winter legumes to produce
all of the nitrogen that the soil will
require next year, farmers are being
urged to plant this crop without de-
lay. Winter legumes planted after DC
tober 20, fall into the unlikely crop
category with June corn.
Right now is the time to plant oats
for grain. Oats that were planted sever
al weeks age should be watched care
fully and clipped il it appears that they
are going to joint before cold weather
is over. Oats planted in November and
December don't usually make a good
crop. oftentimes they are frozen out of
the ground due to the lack of a develop
ed root system sufficient to hold the
plants in the soil.
