Since the beginning of the year, I have been writing about foot- ball, hockey, and a. few other things, and attempting occasion- ally to get oft what usually turned out to be sour Jokes. This week, however, Iim going to be differ- ent, because in this, the final re-

1119 WEEK at S. D. U.

for 194B. I wish to write about a group of students whom, I be- lieve, I have neglected, namely, our coeds. O I O

Since 1942, when girls were first accepted as students at S.DlU.., there have been thirty seven girls. including our present group, who have attended St. Dunstarfs. Anci. with an increase in each year's enrolment, it will not. be long be- fore our coeds‘ ranks will be mult- iplied, This year's graduating class alone contains seven coeds - the largest number ever to graduate

"The construction of a ship spccmilly built for the Wood Is-l lands-Caribou route, with suffic- lcnt power, and so constructed that site. would not be endangered bv ice that might be expected on. the Georgetown - Pictou r o u t e,

would give reasonable assurance of the continuation throughout winter months. But the

building of such a ship would take tilll8,~8.ll(i that would not be av- ailable without some delay."

Plans for Larger Ferry

‘llhe statement adds that a sur- vey is being made and plans pre- pared for the remodelling of a chip available to the company, ~which'wil1 accommodate approxi- mately fifty autos 0r a corre- sponding number of trucks for the

“Our thought is "that if the money we have spent on the ‘Prince Nova‘, wihlch is quite lat- lsfactory for the handling of autos up to her lull capacity, but in-

capable of taking care o! her share of the truck traffic, couldr lip realized, and this money put info a larger boat such as we‘ have referred to, the service would. .be greatly improved," Mr. Mulch ilzric‘.

Until recently the girls had lit- tle or no organization - they had nothing that miffed them, so to speak, and made them feel like one big haPPy family. Although many of them were member's of different societies on the catnpus. still they had no society, no club of their own, which would give them a. common walking ground.

But now all this is changed:

Huge Potential Traffic

The statement quotes an official who had examined the route- shortly after it was opened, to the effect that if given proper attention, the first year's traflic could be multiplied ten times.

The result of actual traflic transported in the seven months‘ operating season just closed-AM.- 660 passengers, 14,804 autos and 5.642 trucks-while giving proof of the importance of the service to both Nova Scotla and Prince Ed- ward Island, does not give any clear picture of what the traffic would have been had ample facil- ities been available, the statement emphasizes.

The fact. that arrangements made with the Railway for the interchange of tickets on the Borden-Tormentine route has re- sulted in a balance in favor of the wood Islands-Caribou rout-e throughout hhe season. is cited as further evidence that the publi: is finding the latter service more convenient. "If we could handle all the traffic that offers. the bai- ance in our favor would be still greater."

FARM MARKET

Feeds

Since last week's report the feed situation has eased somewhat and indications are that grains will be in more abundant supply shortly. The ollmeal situation is still tight but processing operations are how under way and we hope that very shortly oilcake as well as the other protein feeds will be coming in fast- er. Protein prices are still at a high level but fishmenl can be bought from most dealers now at around $6.65 per hundred and $6.50 in ton lots. Oilmedl, where it ls available. is selling at $44.15 with soybean meal about tlhe same.

Much of thelfishmeal supply from Nova Scotia has been going to the American markets but livestock feeders should be able to obtain suf- ficient supplies of protein this winter. Fishmeal will be in greater supply and when the present abun- dant flax crop is processed, oilmeal should be available at a reasonable price.

Grain prices are steady with last week. The following prices are car- lot basis delivered Island points, subsidy deducted: No. 1 feed bar- ley 82.40; No 2. feed barley 82.35; No. S feed barley $2.31: No. 3 CW oats 32.49; No. 1 feed oste ease; No. 2 feed oats $2.33. Some brokers are quoting bsrieymeal at $67.55 per ton f.o.b. Island points. There is no Government grade on this ground barley meal end farmers are warned that the quality of it is not always the best. However. ex- perienced feeders who are buying from reliable sources may be able to get around this difficulty. Shorts is available at around $64 per ton and bran around $61 delivered at Island points.

New City Water SupplyProjeet

Given three more weeks of reas- onably fine weather, Charlotte- town’! new water supply at Union will be in operation. Mr. Stanley Matheson, chief engineer for the Commissioners of Sewers and Wat- er Supply. Stated yesterday.

When completed, the Union pro- ject will have 10 wells in oper- ation with a total daily capacity of one million gallons. The wells are being drilled by Douglas Brothers. Charlottetown.

Electricians to do the necessary linking up of the electric power are expected to begin their work next Week.

Mr. lilathcson said that unfavor- able weather could postpone the completion of the project until next Spring but that it was unlike- ly the citizens would suffer any inconvenience in that event since with reasonable economy there would be plenty of water available with the present facilities. In fact, Mr. ltlatheson said, if all users of City water were metered, there would be no need for the construc- tion oi.’ the Union project. The "one- tap users", who pay $6.00 a year for their water supply use several times more water than many of the "four-tap users."

The reason why the City's water has not been metered Mr. Mutheson said, is because such a system would cause grout hardship to those fnnriiics with below-average incomes and a large number of children. As a rule, the "four-tap users" are those with comparatively small families who have their laundry work done by laundry firms. On the other hand, Halifax is 100 per cent metered.

increase of about 80 per cent over November 1947. If you are inter- ested in the pounds last year there were 220,478 lbs. recorded, and for November this year our figures show 397,710 lbs.

Cheese factories are all closed at present but Dundas and Tyne Val- ley operated for a couple of weeks this month and made between ll,- 000 and 12,000 pounds oi‘ cheese. There are still some twin cheese available in storage at 37c. The weekly dairy production now is holding up well despite the heavy summer season and is still about 70 per cent over last year.

There is some fear of a milk scarcity in the Charlottetown and Summerside areas but apparently this problem has been overcome now that the cheese factories are closed and more extra fluid iilk is being received from these dist- riots.

The general outlook for dairy-lug is good. This is noticed by the re- ncived interest in dnirying audthe demand for young (iniry heifers which are very scarce this fad. Butter and cheese prices were also steady on the Mainland markets this week.

Produce

Local produce prices vary some- what this week although the gen- eral attitude is still to hold off un- til things settle a little more. There are a few cars moving and some boats loaded this week. Seed is moving at Montague and most points in King's County at 75c-80c per bushel at the barn. Tablestock is slow. at 600-650 per bushel at the boat in Montague. but only small quantities are moving. In Prince County Sebago seed is going at 75c pcr bushel delivered Summer- side. No Cobblers or Mountains moving. Tablestock has gone up a little to 75c per bag. At O'Leary and West Prince seed is at a stand- still, but. there is some tablestock moving at 60c per bushel. On the Borden line frcm Emerald to Car- leton seed is moving slowly at around 70c to 80c per bushel.

Tablestock is slow at 60c. Kem- ington prices are for seed Mcturl sins and Sebagoes 70c per bushel and Cobblers 65c. In the Chur- lottetown nren there have been a. couple of boats loaded this iwicek with farmers receiving; 70c pcr bushel delivered in Charlottetown for No, 1's. No. 2 seed is bringing 45c-50c delivered. Tablestock is moving slowly at. 68c-70c per bushel at the car. ,

“Mountnins" and "Katahdih" potatoes were a little brighter on the Boston market this past week and Island stock was selling at $3.- 35-$3.50 per ‘hundred. t

The turnip market too is still dull In the Charlottetown area. Milton, Colvilie. and Wiltshire the price is 30c per bushel at the car. South of Charlottetown at Vernon Bridge and Uigg farmers are only getting 22c-23c at the barn for the few that are moving. No one can definitely foresee future market trends but present developments point to a brighter turnip market after New Year's.
