In Session

Mr. Alex Hamilton, N_ew Perth presided at the annual meeting of the Sheep Breeders Association ileld yesterday morning in Prince of Wales College. The election of officers for the year 1944 resulted n5 follows: Alex Hamilton. President, Walter MacKenzie, M. L. A. Vice President, and W. R. Shaw Secret- ary Treasurer.

Three new directors to take the place of those retiring this year are: King's County. Alrx Hamil- ton; Queen's County. Alan Boswell: Prince County. James A MacGi-e- gor.

Mr W R Show read the firi- aricial statement which was adop- ted and l-hen gave g resume of the year's operations llldlldiflg some of the problems dealt with. particul- arly that of wool shipping He urged shippers to properly mark their shipments for identification

The resolutions committee consis- ting of James A Mac-Gregor, W Reid. and W. Barry MaoLcllail brought in resolutions. hTllClI were adopted, commending the Provin- cial Department of Agriculture for the policy of bonusing beginners in sheep breeding and requesting its continuance; also commending the Department, for thc excellent sys- tem of cooperative marketing of wool as carried out at present and suggesting that all consignments of wool be forwarded to Lennoxvlile, Quebec, for grading.

It was also resolved that whereas filo loss cf sheen by (fogs is ill(",‘(‘fl~ slug lo all alarming licgrcr and Hill‘. llle law an if. now atulltlt. ls not coll- trolling the destruction of flocks. Io request the Government to take necessary and immediate action to protect the industry

MI‘ S D. Irviilc of the Domiti- ion Department of Agriculture. said lllf‘ idol-i of having lilo wocl grading clone at Lmilnoxville was a otl one. He explained the rnm miunl policy, which was pnirl the breeders as soon as possible af- ter production of the pedigrees 85 isms were grrtdcd in 1943 and there are now 45 breeders of pilre bred sheep iii Prince Edward Island. An interesting discussion took place on the value of cross breeding. It was shpwn that. this in some instan- ces proved to be of considerable value, but the foundations must be pure brcd animals

Following this the animal report of the Plcsident was adoplctl

Mr T. J lnmlln of Central Bedeque then presented his report of the annual rneetin of the Catl- ztdian (lo-Operative ool Growers Association hcid at Toronto. This Association handled over 6,030,030

PRESIDENT'S REPORT

Oiir Annual Meeting again finds us actively engaged in a continua- tion 0f this world wide war. Thank God the outcome is more encour- sgalng than when we met about a year ago. Sorrow and grief have invaded the homes of a great num- bcr oi’ our dca: people during tile

ast year through the loss _of their uclovcd dead. The kecn anxiety and suspense that is the situation in most of our homes must surely bring us all to our knees in humble prayer to God for an early end to this terrible conflict. Our heart- felt sympathy goes out to the fa- mliics of all those who have been

sacrifice of their young lives for our protection. We pray God to have mercy on their immortal souls ‘and grant them peace in Heaven. |We are directly represented by the great number of our gallant boys mud girls. ivlio are risking their llives and sacrificing everything {near and dear to them in order ‘that. we may be privileged to con- tinue our way of life. Let us re- solve to prove worthy of such sac-

rifice. i

Referring to farm educatictt he spoke of the dual language prob- lem that exists in his own Prov- ince of Quebec and this has a bearing on the Farm Radio Forum program there.

He then ‘spoke about. controls Whltlll) he said were put on to pre- vent inflation both iiow and in the post. war period. "Don't let. us be fooled as we are going to face re- adjustment. problems after the war and the prltnaryt producers will have in absorb lhe shock". "We lfllléi Ufgfillll-f‘ III 2i CU-ODPffilHE‘ Wat to aproach other members of society for a just and equitable arrangement of our problems" Mr. MacArthur went on to say that there must be some rules and reg- ulations after the war but that some of these must come from the farmers themselves in co-operatlon with those in authority. "Play fair with the men you elect no mutter what political party ls in power and give them your briefs of ivl-lat you think is best for Agriculture. "Agriculture being basic, stands at the very foundation of our civ- lllsation.

Makes Suggestion At this point in the proceedings

I Reviews Federation Of Agriculture Activities

As farmers we have met our heavy responsibilities to the war effort in a splendid maliner. Nev- et‘ before have so few people pro- duced so much good food in any one year. We will continue to d_u so to the best of our ability until the great necd is over. To the heroic efforts cf our wives and children much of the credit is due. In the meantime, we should ‘be planning for the post-war period when I greatly fear many head- aches await us unless we are fully prepared. In my humble ‘ ion, thorough organization and edu- cation are the most important means to this end. If this is admit- ted how should we go about it? ln our sister province of Nova 5co- tia the farmers have formulated what I believe to be l. splendid plan. ‘they call it organizing from the "grass roots" up. The first unit of this organization is com- posed of all the members of the school district. They, in turn. yoib l such larger units rls Credit Unions Producer and Consumer Coopera- tives. Men and Women Institutes and such other units as now go to make up our Federation of’ Agri- culture. Let me suggest it. is highly desirabil- that we try some such plan here.

Educational Cor-lira

Our schools might very well be used as a social and educational centre where our people both old and young might meet at least weekly. By getting together in this way for mutual discussion nf our problems, we would begin to understand how completely de- pendent we are 0n each other. We
