Clover seed supply

Last year the Canadian crop of red clover seed was well below the average and as a result much larger quantities have been im- ported into Canada than is usual.

it should be kept in mind that generally speaking im-ported seed is not as hardy as the native grown. it would appear to be de- sirable for farmers and seed deal- .-is to check the places of origin of scrd to be purchased.

Cost Of Potato Marketing Bond

Lctzers appearing in the press recently seek to develop the be- lict that the potato levy is to be used entirely for financing the administration of the Board.

Such a statement is untrue. Most of the levy will be used. as in the past. for advertising, pro- motion, and control of diseases.

This red herring of the levy being used entirely for office pur- poses has been drawn across the trail too often.

if potato growers doubt the val- ue of their Board, they need only recall the statement made in the press by a. prominent potato deal- cr on November 21st and 27th. that there was no prospect for higher prices and that Island growers could not expect to ben- cm by holding back either table- siock or seed.

At that time the price of seed wls thirty six cents a bushel Ind ubiestock thirty two cents.

To establish the value of the Board it is only necessary to fig- urc the increases in value on the 1500 cars shipped in January at Board lll'lL'l3S over priccs current on Nuvciiibcvr 27th.

Colombo Plan

llt3dilul'S who from time to time see the ”Colombo Plan" mentioned in the press may be puzzled as to what it means. Seven members of the British Commonwealth; Australia, Ca-n.ad.a, Ceylon. India. New Zealand, Pakistan, and the United Sinics have joined together ill an effort to raise production and living standards in South and South East Asia.

The plan is designed to bring 13 million acres under cultivation to produce six million more ions of food grains and also increase. by 13 million acres. land under irrig- such.

The plan receives its name from the fact that Cabinet Ministers of Cominonwealhh countries first met in Colombo, Ceylon, to discuss it.

Potato OrowerI' Aueeiuion

The P. E. I. Potato Growers' 'Association meeting on Thursday afternoon discussed the business sot-up of the”AseociItion and prob- lems affecting the whole industry.

The Association, since its begin- ning, has made valuable con- tribution from the standpoint of promoting and developing I high quality product, particularly in seed potatoes.

It has also served as I training field for a number of active and 5 'ul private dealers.

Butter Prices

Scarcity of butter is reflected in rapid price increases across West- ern Canada and Ontario. At the present time, prices in the Mari- tlmes are at least ten cents under those in Central Canada.

Should this situation continue. butter could be profitably shipped from here to distant markets.

Dairymen as a group, are in- clined to view with concern any violent upward movement of but- let prices. They have favored the government floor price with the control, it also provided in fluct- uations from season to season.

It. is now quite clear that last year's floon price was too low to stimulate production and place dairy farmers in I position where they could compete with hizh prices for beef cattle.

The announcement. by thellon C. C. Baker. Minister of Agricult- ure, that a bull bonuslng policy. it aipproved by the Legislature, will be initiated this coming Selispn. will be viewed with satisfaction by farmers and such a policy

Farm Prices &. Market Report

Excerpts from' the weekly re- port by Mr. W. R. Shaw, Deputy Minister of Agriculture:

Prices of dairy products, be- cause of low supplies, have jump- ed across Canada and it would seem to me that adequate steps will be taken to distribute import- ed butter to areas in which a deficiency occurs.

The following prices prevail on our dairy markets:

Nova Scotia, wholesale 59c. Loc- Il jabbing 01c. .

New Brunswick, 59 1-2c. Local jobbing 61c. -

Charlottetown, 60 1-2c, Jobbing 62c. Montreal. fresh No. 1 solids. dc- livered. 650.

Toronto. fresh No. 1 solids, de- livered, 'l1c. '

.In other sections of Canada prices of Canada prices have also strengthened materially. In view of low production and inadequate supplies the prices in the Mari- time nrea have remained remark- ably steady. and consumers are really getting a break. in view of conditions, on the prices they pay for butter and milk.

Eggs

Our reports on eggs indicate a strong trend in prices since our last report. This is having an ad- verse effect on demand. Within the week prices to producers went up as high as 51c. but these have been reduced and the price for ungraded eggs f.o.b. to producers is AL 46c. NM 440. AP 65 B 370. C 29c.

Dealers are quoting station op- crators for the graded pack f.o.'b. station AL 52c. AM 50c AP 6: B 43c. C 35c.

,Dealers are quoting retailers for this same graded pack AL 55c. AM 53c. AP &B me, C 38c.

There is a. considerable spread noted in retail to consumer prices due no doubt to the fluctuating market of the past week. Take note of tihis: Eggs are retailing to consumers Ctradc AL 51c to 090: AM 55c to 666: AP 47c to 59: and B's 50c to Me.

It is suggested to retailers, in order to encourage consumer de- mand, that they adjust their prices as rapidly as possible to producer levels. we seems to be entirely too high a price to the consumer even with eggs at the top level of the week's producer quotations.

Feeds

No. 1 feed oats is a little easier at” 83.31 1-2 per owt. in bulk, whole- sale. Feed barley is gone up to 33.46 1-2 for No. 1. with No. 2 at 03.39 1-2. No. 5 feed wheat is also up at xl.09. and is scarce. No. 8 is 53.05 1-4. Brain and shorts are up 31.00 per ton and are now at 509.- 50. Oilmeal is not readily available and soybean meal is 3101.00 per ion at Montreal.

Feeds are going to be high as long as demand is keen from American points. The opening of navigation may loosen up prices a little as supplies are placed more advantageously in eastern points, but I do not look for cheap feeds of any kind until after the new crop has been harvested. This should direct the attention of our feeders hero to their own production possibilities in grains, hay. grass silage. and pastures. Possibly it would be well to divert some fertilizer from potatoes to these other forms of production. Incidentally there is I. serious shortage of milling grade wheat and it. is probable that Canadian flour mills may drastically reduce their output by midsumme . 1-"lour supplies might continue slow and

this shortage takes place.

The seed grain market will sip- parently he fairly high and farm- ers are urged to secure their re- quirements at the earliest possible moment. There is I large quantity of good mixed grain that will make good seed for those who re- quire animal feed. Mainland points are quoting No. seed outs at ap- proximately 55-00 per bag; seed barley It 95.10 per bag. Local markets have not yet steadied and there is a good deal of farm to farm trading which is not I bad idea among neighbours providing the seeds are of proper grade.

ed states over the hurdle of high- er tariffs. it is not certain yet. however. whether there will be any great quantity shipped to the United States on the high rate of duty: The situation will bear close watching for the next. two weeks. Farmers should check carefully with dealers before loading. Table- stock indications are that the de- mand may improve slightly dur- ing the next few days in Canada. It is interesting to note that in a recent statement ,of secretary Bi-annon's he is definitely of the opinion that Canadian potatoes entering the United States had nothing to do with any deteriorat- ing position of their mIrkcts. At the same time others are putting up a fight to restrict Canadian imports into the counry. The potato market in the Unit- ed states still lacks life and vital- ity. There are plenty of potatoes in Pennsylvania and western New York to keep eastern market: supplied. There has been a defici- ency of can which has perhaps held the market together to acme extent. At the same time large quantities of potatoes are being disposed of Ind it is expected that with improved weather condition- seed markets may perk up. To date 60 million bushels of potatoes have been siphoned off under support. To emphasize this quant- ity it means 100.06!) cariosds. or Ipproxlmately 1.000 carloads of potatoes 3 day. taken out of ex- istence.

Lenten Meditations DYING 1'0 LIVE (The London Times) I

illeirly all who submitted to bap. am as the rite of initiation into the Church were inevita-bly ad-uit converts. For them it meant a sradlcal break with the past mu ncorporation into I new com. mun"-Y. It was a break not only with the old religion but with fam- ily lies and cultural traditions, with their 'inlherit.ed values and ways of living. Such a step frequently entailed SW31 Ostficlsm. economic boycott and even persecution. For them, as for converts in the mission fieldsysiill, the act of deliberate Christian commitment involved a surrender and renunciation of all that hitherto made up life, It could indeed be described as 1 death to iihe old and a new birth U1P0Ush the Gospel. The sacramental waters of bap- tism, beneath which they passed into membership of the Church, were effective symbols of that re. Zellemllon. and the point was re- lnlforcedl by the practice of ad- ministei-in-g baptism at Easter. In that context the phrases of St. Paul about being baptized into the. death of Christ describe is vivid and actual experience. Buried with him by baptism into his death the Christian rises with him into new life. But. in facl. lhe Apostles words apply. not on-iy to baptism: they describe the inward growth and development in the Christian soul as death to sin and new life "unto God.-" They are indeed the un- quaiiified ageriion of the law laid down in the teaching of our Lord. that those who are willing to lose their lives will find them. All this is verified in wide hu- man experience. Growth, whether bodily or mental, implies a con- tinual dying to what is outworn. Peter Pans are in truth retarded people who because they refuse to die to childhood cannot live suc- cessfully as adults. Men and civil-- izatlon die, as Nievbuiir says (echo- ing iicre Toyn-bee's well known formula), through trying too des- perately to live - to live, that is. unto themselves or by I system that is now outmoded. So, too, many a marriage breaks down because both parties persist in trying to live each from his owil separate centre and refuse to die into something new and better. Everywhere there are traces of the same law. to refuse to die may be to surrender life. He that wills to save -his life shall lose it. But specifically Christian insight penetrates more deeply than that. Death unto sin and new life unto righteousness implies far more than a change of moral attitude or a psychological readjustment. What it demands is a radical redirec- tion of the innermost motives of the self. It is nothing less than rebirth into Christ. that is. to iden- tification of the self. through the work of Christ in the mind and heart, with the purposes of God for man revealed in him. And that means entry into I changed dimen- sion. . ' i
