Mr. L. W. Roper, Charlottetown, said that. the holding of a. field day or livestock show had been (liSl. sscd recently. If the breeders associations tack the matter up with both departments of agricul- ture, a general livestock show could be held this year.

This would be purely agricultural and educational. A delegate from cacti of the breeders associations will approach the Provincial Gov- eriuneitt. and the Exhibition As- sociation with the view of staging this show.

Captain Read suggested that the prizes given be 1n thc form of War Savings Certificates.

A lengthy discussion took nlace regarding a resolution re the .‘.\.ie.=p

Mr. Laird charged that the lviaizagcr of the Livestock Board and the “Agr1culturlst" would bene- fit from the passing of the Mar- keting scheme.

Capt. Read reminded Mr. Laird that the producers were given the right to have the scheme discard- ed 1f after it certain time it proved unsatisfactory.

ducts still exists 4o that those 1n-

e ‘the late full, and very careful post-

mortem examination was carried. out with a view to determining the prezenoe of internal parasites. The result; in the opinion of Dr. Swami were moot gratifying. Post-mortem examination on a mialler number of lambs from n second flock treat- ed revealed similarly satisfactory results. These tablets are being made available in u commercial way at Charlottetown.

After several can of recession, then up indies ons that interest in the sheep industry in the Mai-i- timo Provinces la being revived. For the past ten years there has been a steady decline due to ineffec- tlvo control of parasites, lo=ses from dogs and to some extent indif- ference to the raising of sheep brought about by depression prices for wool and relatively low prices on lamb. However, as already in- timated wool and lamb prices have recently shown improvement. The potential market for sheep pro-

terested in the sheep industry feel that sheep raising still is and can be made more profitable. It t: be- lieved that our domestic consump- tlon of lamb per capita has in- creased.

Betterment of lndmtry

Steps within reach of the sheep raiser for the bettemient of the industry would seem to include:

l-Systematic ‘Ikeatmetrit for the Control of Parasltism, Internal and Etxtemal. To illustrate the value to be gained by treating sheep let me mention one specific instance: The rail grading o1.‘ market lambs, still

in the experimental stage, has made it. possible to identify the lambs from the farm to the rail.
