Tthe present livestock population or Prince Edward Island and its desirable expansion in the interest of soil conservation require an im- portation Into this Province of frcm fifty thousand to seventy-five thousand tons of animal feeds yearly. At the same time the full resources of Prince Edward island farms must be developed in raw food production if any protection is to be give-n to an aggressive pro- granitne of ag-rlciflture.

Departmental policies were con- ducted to the highest degree that-a limited field staff could achieve. ‘llhe development of Farm Forums and Study Groups has received Ipeclal attention. Upwands of sLvty groups were organized in the early part of the year. the bulk of which were reorganized again for fall and winter study. These Study Groups have been organimd for the pur- pose oi nreking a study of fenrn and community probltrm and are _not in any way associated with the -de- veloptnent of any political philos- uphy. The problems of Prince Ed- ward Island as they affect the in- dividual, the community and the atate at large must receive attent- ion by the ordinary rural citizen and the progrmtvme which has been established for these growth based on the most urgent problems oi production. marketing and social development wihhin rural comm-un- ltles.

Staff Chaagee

Mr. Earl Adams we; added to the staff during the year a: assistant in the Dairy Superintendent and has given a splendid service in his particular field. Part oi Mr. Adams‘ work has been the testing of milk delivered for urban consumption. This service has developed s eon- fitience on the part of both the consumer and producer.

Mr. Murray Creed. a second year student in agriculture. was placed oil iii-id work during the suimner months while Mr. Roy Boswell has been employed at the soil laborat- ory. Bot-h these men per-fanned work of merit.

During the year added emphasis was placed on the development of Bill's’ and Girls‘ Clubs. Five new swine Clubs were organized mid additions were made to the Calf and Poultry Clubs which now stand at eleven and five respectively.

Fox Farthing

Fox production met with difficult conditions in the year 1947 and the market levels have been tragically low. These conditions forced quite a number oi fox breeders out oi the industry. Others however. are con- tinuing with commendabie coinage. weeding out their less (1P§IT3b]I' types and placing their hopes on the more desirable units that re- main. '

Along with low market levels. breeder have had to contend with

extreme y high costs of feed.

The importance oi the fox and fur industry to the Province isont- -standing and it is desirable from the viewpoint of the breeders and citizens generally that better days shall be experienced in the near future.

‘Iihe Fox Show. held in Charlotte- town in November, brought out about 300 exhibits of remarkably fine quality and attractiveness. There was a splendid attendance at the Show in view oi conditions and remarkable enthusiasm among the patrons. The annual Pelt Show was also generously patronized.

Cucumber Development

A new development of promise took place during the year in the forrm oi cucumber growing for pickling purposes. The Matthew- Wells Company oi Ontario arranged for the growing oi cucumbers un- der» contract and constructed stor-

whlch to store the product.

The quantities of cucumbers de- livered were a revelation to both producers and company officials. Approximately 5 1-2 million pounds were handled during the season and this quantity could have been extended if storage facilities had been available.

‘This development may well lead to an industrial expansion in the processing of various 111193 oi vege- tables and bruit; which will prove of outstanding value to our island

people.

Exhibitions The Exhibitions, including the Maritime - Winter Fair. demon-

strated an enthusiasm and interest in livestock production that has not been experienced for a number of years. Substantial plans are be- in; made all round by administrat- Ive officials for future expansion. and we can well feel that our shows in this Province and the Merit-III!“ generally are reaching a level that compares favourably with the best in Canada.

Lenore Aubert as Haydee. the wife. and Eduardo Ciannelll as Antoine. his faithful follower, all give exciting and authentic portrayals. indeed. it is one of the ablesi’, and best balanced group of players over assembled for a picture. and each one gives distinction to n production that is marked qvlth sincerity and fidelity io the legendary characters.

The story is built around the ef- forts of Edmond Dantes, to thwart the villainous machinations of De Viliefort and Danglars to capital- ize on the plague that is sweep- lng through Paris. by selling pol- sonous medicine t0 the poor at exhorbitant prices.

Many Opportunities

On looking forward ti» the year I cm convinced that Prince Edward Island agriculture has many opportunities under changing conditions for substantial and con- structive development. No doubt great difficulties andmany discour- agements will be encountered. Farm producers. however, i should look upon the business of agricult- ure over a long teem period and lay plans accordingly.

Unfortunately there in rome- times n tendency to respond too quickly to temporary influences and take action accordingly, only to find that such action. in, the light oi a long-term programme. has been rather outof step with I good business principles. Careful study of farm problems. loyalty to farmers’ own organizations, a spirit oi co-operation and a de- velopment cf co-ordinated strength l among farmers themselves will do much to achieve results that are so desirable urour rural people. I am sure I express the desire oi all technical men who are engaged in agriculture in- this Province when I lay that we all wish to
