Que- beo will be meetim of our De.iryInens' Associ- ation directors on Saturday- Mr. Macmillan is in the Maritlmes working out final do with our producer organisations for the National Public Relations ‘and

Publicity campaign dairy products. It is quite nt that a good deal of work is

necessary now to maintain our but- ter sales ‘and meet competition with substitutes and lower grade produce on many markets. This -proposed plan is similar to the airy Program in United states and is jointly mounted in Canada by the Dairy Banners of Canada. the producers organisation. the dairy council of Canada. the deal- ers or processors organization and the Associated Milk Foundations at Canada.

It is seldom that wild geese arrive in suchl numbe in such short space of time. Whether or not this presages a bumper goose flight remains to be seen.

‘Parents’ Night.

cream test is down three or four points below what it should be they are quite concerned. But, when the test goes down seven to nine points below what it should be most farmers will eventually take action to find out the trouble.

This is what happened in a few cases in the central part of the province recently. one farmer in the Charlottetown area. bi’ Rotting half the sample of cream selected for test at the factory. had it tested at the Government laboratory and was paid on a. test. of twenty sev- en when the Govcrrunent test showed thirty six per cent butter fat. other instances have been almost as glaring. It's almost time

farm people woke up.to the of a large oe-operative cream- and dairy plant in this prov- . If we just stop to figure out short a. period it takes to lose the cost of such a producer owned and controlled outfit by a. couple of pounds short weight and a slight variation in the test. then the sight of the first cost of such a plant might not appear so great.

It our dairy industry is the backlbone or our farm program, let us do everything possible to protect it.

Preparation of Brief

We hesitate to -rder to this matter again because of the un- fortunate and unwarranted devel- opments since it was presented. However. in order to explain the background we want to say that thls Brief was wholly based on resolutions discussed and passed at Partners’ meetings in the Province durltg the past year. All the sug- gestions originated troln the practical farmers of the Province 'I7oose resolutions were condensed and put. in the form at a. Brief suitable for presentation to those who should be concerned. It was drafted by a committee of three directors appointed at In execut- ive mceting in February and was reviewed in detail by the Provincial directors for two sessions the day before it was presented to the Leg- islature.
