At present Prince Edward Island exports 55 per cent of Canada's certified seed potatoes. and has successfully shipped them to the United States, Mexico. Cuba, British West Indies, Panama. Venezuela. Uruguay. Argentina, Great Britain, France, Palestine, Egypt. south Africa and to all provinces of Canada. The production oi certifi- ed seed began around 1920. In that year 886 acres of potatoes were grown under inspection and corti- fication. Since that time the acre- age under inspection for seed has increased to 27,771 acres, in 1951 when the amount grown for table stock is added to that for seed. the importance of potatoes as a cash crop may be more fully rea- lized.

Soil Fertility

Until comparatively recent years, fertility for this crop was supplied by stable manure which helped to maintain organic matter in the soil. Since the introduction oi commercial fertilizer for part or au the manure formerly used_ Unless manure or vegetable mater- isl in some other form is applied elsewhere in the rotation, there appears to be a grave danger of exhausting the organic matter and thus seriously affecting fertility.

Again, potatoes do well on some light soils which are marginal for other farm crops — soils which are particularly subject to erosion and in which organic matter is diffic- ult to maintain under all condi- tions. Observation had indicated that considerable areas of this type of land are used for potatoes; and that the fertility level of some of these farm: is being lowered rapidly by sheet erosion. aggravat- ed by running the potato drill up and down a slope. by failure to

BOSTON, (AP)—A federal jury Wednesday acquitted George D. O'Brien, 44, of Quincy, Mass, of larceny in the record 0681.700 loot- ing of an armored truck at Dan- vers March 26. 1952.

The theft, carried out while the armored truck's three-man crew was having coffee in a nearby drugstore, was the largest such haul in U.s. crime records.

O'Brien has been the only per- son brought to trial for the huge cash theft.

Exports of M22? And Flour Down

O'I'I‘AWA. (CP)—’I‘he bureau of statistics reported Wednesday that exports of wheat and wheat flour in terms of wheat dropped to 152,000,000 bushels in the August- February period compared 207,800,000 a year ago.

Canada. the United States. Ar- gentina. and Australia held 1,860,- 900,000 bushels at March 1 coni- pared with 1,471,600,000 bushels a year ago.

For a long time grade A hogs have been worth 40c more per hundred than B, but a. recent change will make the spread 3100, thus a grade A hog dressing 150 lbs. will be worth $2.50 more than a B of comparable weight. Even this addition may not represent the actual difference in market value but it does at least provide some additional reward for the farmer who turns out the top quality animal.
