There is quite a variation both in the price and the quality coming under the term of "choice beef" this week.

The Grand Champion Steer at the Fat Stdok Show in Amherst sold for 59c per pound, The aver- age price for the other 118 anim- alswasafractionoverflcper pooh on the hoof. However, on the land here for real choice ‘beef, as high ls 25c is being paid and this ranges downvwardto 20c. In regard tolthe Amherst show, many oi the farmers and tho ag- ricultural officials on the way home were discussing the possib- ility oi a Provincial Fat Stodr Show and on the Island. ‘Ilhey wondered how much interest there would be or how much support they would get if such-a project were undertaken next year. If any lbeei men would be interested in this project, the Department would be glad to arrange a. meeting, in the near future to discuss its pos- sibllities.

Montreal livestock prices are stronger. Top steers are bringing 23; good 21-22; Good cows 16-17. Th; hog market is strong at 3110 ior Grade A's. It might be of in- terest to note that 1,929 hogs were marketed from Island fann- ers last week. ,

Them is a keen demand for young pigs about 90 pounds at present and e. price of $71.00 pet pair is being offered. A timely warning to hog men at this per- iod oi .ihe year is the necessity for treating young litters with re- duced iron.

DAIRY PRODUCTS

Island butter production was 36,2112 pounds, a 26.5% irlciease over the same week last yea-r. In the user-looting phase wholesale prices are 60c i.o.b. Iialifax. The Jobbing price in Halifax is no i.o.b. At Saint John last week the wholasslg price was 60c and the Jobbing price 6256c. At Charlotte- town there were no wholesale shipments. ‘mg local jabbing price was 63c. The. Montreal price for No. 1 solids was 571/40 yesterday.

There is nothing doing on cheese at the present time other than the local factories are mak- ing arrangements ior the coming season and next year's programme.

POTATOES

Last week there was the heav- iest movement in potatoes from the Province since November, Vii! cars oi potatoes were shipped from the Province last month compared with 8'18 in March, 1047. Cars are scarce at several local shipping points especially in East- em Kings and Western Prince. However it was learned ircm the Railway today that plenty of reef- er cars will be available from now on.

At Tignish Certified and Foundation Mountains are $11.35- $1.40 per cwt. at car.

At Oicary there was no price or no demand IOr seed except ior a couple oi cars oi Foundation Mountains which moved at 01.00 per bushel. Tablestock was 70c delivered.

Brendon and Winnipeg, which may be an indication that there will be an opening ior con- siderable seed in Western Canada this spring. There was a heavier tablestock movement in the Char- lottetown area last week. Prices were 85c-B7c per bag at the car.

The produce shipping has slack- ened off somewhat during the last couple oi days, no doubt because oi the truck hauling being cur- tailed for the time being.

I would like to say however, for those with Cobbler seed to try and get them off as soon es possible because most of the Cobblers will be shipped to parts of Ontario and Central Canada where they will be needed in the near future. In other wards the time ior export- ing Cobbler seed will be over very soon.

Turnip;

Turnip prices at Charlottetown, Milton, Wilshire, and Vernon range. from; 32c-37c. This means they have jumped. three or four cents here but our reports from Boston show the marioct much stronger and an increase of 15c-20o per bushel there during the past couple oi weeks.

Fertilizers

Although the topic of fertilizer does not seem to be as popular this spring as it was last, the situat- ion may change soon. The warning ls repeated that the manufactur- ers and produce dealers are unable to store sufficient fertilizer to meet the needs of all farmers. It must be kept moving now if the in- creased demands are to be met later on. Although the trucks are off the roads I suggest that any one who can arrange for storage space at rail siding now to pro- cure their fertilizer, because after the last oi April there will most certainly be a hold-up in trans- portation. The new 5-10-13 formula is recommended to replace the old 4-8-10 table. This is plentiful and farmers will be well advised if they can make arrangements to procure their fertilizer require- ments as soon as possible.

Federation or Agriculture

There have been several in- quiries regarding the Federation oi Agriculture campaign and whether the time is over for pay- ing of membership fees. Actually no. The campaign is still on and will be for some time, until the roads are improved,_ and it is possible ior the school secretaries in many of the outlying districts to contact their neighbours. The campaign to date has been most successful and the Directors are anxious that as many farmers as possible be given the opportunity to join their own organization. Up to the present time about one- q-uarter of the districts on the Island have been heard from.
