The Red Sox slugged out a 12-4 victory over the hapless Independ- ents at Queen Eizabeth Park last night. The winners got all their eight hits and twelve runs off Vance Harris in the third and fourth innings. Mark Delaney came in to relieve and allowed no fur- ther hits in the 1 1-3 innings he pitched. Eddie Boates went the dis- tance for the Red Sox.

The Independents, strengthened by three players from the R.C.A.F, looked like a different team for two frames, leading the Red Sox at that stage 3-0. But the batting barrage against I-larris killed all hope of gaining their first victory. Maynard Schurman led the hitters with 2 for 2. Eddie Boates had 2 for 3, and Grant Grady 2 for 4.

”How can we expect our child- ren to get 3 proper education if they are obliged to receive in- struction from a young teen 389 girl who perhaps herself has failed academically." he asked. "Our best brains is leaving the Province each year and such a system can result in nothing more than a de- terioration of our educational stan- dards."

Mr. Parker expressed satisfac- tion with the stand the Women's Institutes of the Province have taken in regard to educational matters. He felt that "a live or- ganization" such as this could do much to bring about an improve- msni.

The subject of the panel dis- cusslon was iCan Farm income Be I m p ro ved." Mr. Dewar said that with the shortage of farm labour and the high cost of farm machinery, many were of the opinion that the take home pay of the farmer could meet op- erating costs.

Mr. Profitt said it was a very great problem--that of increasing farm revenue. Farming today, he said, resolved itself into two cat- egories; either you buy a lot of machinery to keep up production or you stick to the family farm and try to get along as econom. ically as possible. In either case the farmer is usually in financial difficulties.

Mr. Parent thought that by giv- ing closer attention to farm man- agement and to the little things a great deal could be saved. "The size of the farm," he said "was not so important when we watch the items such as preservation of the barnyard manure. the control of weeds and the extermination of nests."

SOMETHING WRONG

Mi? Clay said. "Some people say we have no problem of pro- duction--we are producing more than we can sell". He went on to point out that 40 per cent of all

the little pigs born in Canada die before they are ready for market. He also said that 3100.00 was lost in this Province by farmers sell- ing hosts that were over weight. He went further to state that 80 Per cent of the cattle shipped from this province were not fit for beef. One Maritime plant alone in one week made 70 tons of bologna. Another point emphasized by Mr. Clay was the fact that the average production of grain on the Island is 30 bu per acre. "If this were increaseed to 50 bushels per acre we would be independent of western grain," he said.

many "leaks" that could be plug- ged in this matter. For example he told of a sheep shearer who related that K) per cent of "the sheep that he sheared were pol- luted with ticks.

"Are we spending too much on farm machinery?" was the next question posed by Mr. Dewar.

Mr. Profltt thought farmers were spending too much. He cau- tioned that when a machine is bought. consideration should be given as to what extent it will in- crease the farm income--in other words. how is it going to be paid for.

Mr. Clay thought co-operative

ownership of large machine units might be the answer to the pro- blem. In summing up Mr. Profitt said the best advice he could offer was "If you are going to keep cows, stuff them; keep them clean and look after the calves well. If you keep hens keep them producing 75 per cent of the year.

Mr. Parent said the Island was one of the most favorably adapted places in the world for farming. He urged farmers to produce qual- ity products and the market dc- man .

MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE

Mr. Cullen congratulated Mr. Parker on the excellence of his address. He said that while all would not agree with everything he said, he had given many fine suggestion w h i c h communities might well take to heart.

Speaking of his recent trip to Wester Canada, Mr. Cullen noted that the problem of daylight time and standard time waas causing no small amount of trouble in most of the provinces. He noted however that the cities of Mani- toba showed grest concern for agriculture. "They seemed to re- alize that the good of the farmer was to there benefit. This was more evident there than it is in this pro- vince", he added.

Mr Cullen urged farmers to take advantage of the facilities provided for them by the Ex- perimental Farm and the Science Service Laboratory. He paid m. bute to Mr. Clay for the improve. ment he has made in livestock in the Province during the put bum.

Tenders for coriccssions

cigarettes, novelities, etc.

Mr. Clay felt it was inevitable that farms will get bigger. "If the 75 acre farm is to remain then we can only expect that we will have a form of peasantry which exists in some of the European countries of today or like it was here 50 years ago."
