Crop levlew

Although there is still a tow ilelds of grain to cut. harvesting is pret- ty 1leil,cves. The remarkably tine weather at the last two weeks has made it possible to put our harvest away. in excellent condition. The grain" crop on the Island is the heaviest for many years and gan- uy meshing is o! excellent qual-

Tba potato crop has euifered seriously irom blight. Reports (mm the heavier potato growing dist- ricts, indicate that the quality of saleable potatoes this year may not exceed eo percent or last year's saleable crop. Many tarmers re- port that their crops will hardly be worth digging because of the blliht. However, it is difficult. at thepresenttimetomakeneaa-to an t eetimato oi the dam- age done. Those who have spray- ed consistently and whose "tubers are still green are now killing them. as advised by the Science Division.

The turnip maggot is taking its toll also. Farmers in the Charlotte- town area and surrounding dis- tricts who have made quito a suc- cess ol turnip growing for many years have been hit hard. Many of them, because of the maggot damage, will not have any turnips to market for table use. we are all hoping that the entomology .. ,1 will find a solution for this problem, the same as was done a few years ago when brownheart at- lected our turnip crop. It must be pointed out, howeverf that t.his maggot attack is a much more dif- ficult problem- to handle. The brcwnheart was caused by a de- ficiency in the soil. It may be pos- sible that our turnip growers will be looking ice. and justified in ex- pecting some compensation for their lcsses the same as other pro- ducers and industries have receiv- ed when in similar circumstances.

There has not been much tall ploughing done as yet, but this will be the next job when thresh- ing is completed.

Ploughlng Competitions

The ploughing match. Junior Junior Club shew. and machinery display at Dundee will be the next big agricultural event. 3 It is noted too where some of

the farmers of Pownal and sur- rounding districts plan on start-

-ing. in a small way, a Queens county Match late on in the fall. There hssalso been some interest in the Beetown area in such a project. This may be the basis or a similar "event (or Prince County

Somefannersdonotaeemto see much educational value in a com- petitlon of this kind. However, the discussions and sometimes argu- ments which take place on the side- lines regarding -the care and use of machinery. methods at cultiva- tion. uso of lime, fertilizers, man- ures. etc., and the general theme of soil conservation, are ,all worth- while. In tact this phase or tarm- ing is one that is considered very little at other Exhibitions and farm meetings. The farmers them- selves have the answers to many or those problems and the exchange of opinions and experiences, in addition to the competition for the younger iolk merits our wholeheart- ed support.

0. l'. A. Meeting

The time of writing our deleg- ates have not returned from the Fredericton meeting, However, as soon as they retumpa report will be released and a meeting of both the Provincial and the County directors will be called. This will be to discuss the ” " of the Conference and to map out a local program 101' the tall and winter months.

Potato Board Starting

Activities of the potato market in the past couple of weeks should convince those who are still crit- ical of the need of a Marketing Board and of the necessity of the Island and New Brunswick Boards wcrking together.

Mr. Dewar, while in Fredericton is arranging for a Joint meeting of the newly appointed Boards'im- medlately.

As soon as a Maritime plan can be agreed upon and a competent manager secured for the Island Board. the provisions of the Met- keting plan will be made public and will go into eiiect. It should then take only a few days to work out the first details and orders. Members of the Board have ag- reed thst it will take a great deal of study and a lot of time to get things rolling. However, they have accepted theresponslbility and are willing to devote this time to it as

soon as agreement can be reached with New Brunswick and an suic-

villt allied set-up established.

Industrial Groups organlung

Eeferenop. was made recently hy some at our local legislators to the trend or industrial groups organ- ising throughcut the country and fear was expressed about the out- come of this development. It is al- ways well to look at the historical blclwrcund and reasons for a trend of this kind. '

In 1003 the " I income of Canada was 33 billion hnd that of the United States 8” billion. Last year the figures were, Canada 813 billion, United States 8264 billion. our national inccmehad gone up over four times what it was in 1933 and that of the United States is up over six times. This poses a ques- tion (or us.

We would not be so rash as to say that the Canadian farmers and workers should get (our times the income that theygot in 1933. but we do say that when the ordinary people in Canada organize to get higher wages they are well within the range or possibility.

We also, conwnd that when all the people of this country organize to get a greater share of the na- tional income they am doing I great patriotic service. They are preventing the most threatening iinancial dictatorship the world has ever seen. '

The question is, should we can- tlnue to allow ourselves to be own- ed and directed by a small but powerful segment of the popula- tion who control our finances or should we organize to do a scient- ific job of production and distrib- ution and thus to give each citizen a fair share as the wealth he help- ed to create,

"Water, Water and not a Drop to Drink"

From the July 7th issue of the Co-operative Consumer, we pass on the following observation:

"Canada." we are told by Prime Minister St. Laurent, "has greater potential wealth per person than any other country." Canada. in this sense. is a name applied to a tract of land within specllic boundaries. as such, Canada, no doubt con- tains great potential wealth. but it's misleading to use the phrase "per person" when estimating it. For practically all the known potential wealth in Canada is already in the hands of a very few people, and a large percentage of that few are not even Canadians.

"It has never been the policy oi any movement at Ottawa to regard the ownership of Canada's poten- tial wealth in that way and this is done with a purpose. That purpsse

is to make every Canadian feel

that he is prosperous because when the national wealth is reckoned on a per caplta basis he is shown to be worth a million. But of what practical help is this sort of vap- ourlng to the 400.000 Canadians who are unemployed and particu- larly to those who have exhausted their pet caplta share of the Un- employment Insurance Fund. would it not be much more interesting to the population as a. whole were Ottawa otflcials to announce a policy by which the admittedly great potential wealth of this coun- try would not only be calculated on a. per caplta basis but would iind its way into the per capita pocket in an equitable iashion.
