S’side Trade Board Reports

The following corrmittee reports were reed at the recent annual meeting of the Summerside Board ed Trade:

Agriculture

Sulmttted by MacFarlane.

1 beg to submit the following re- port c: the Committee on Agricul- ture of the Summerside Board of Trade,

A year ago the Sulmnerside Board of Trade sponsored in this area the growing of cucumbers for commercial purposes. which is u new industry in "this province. ‘Cucumbers proved to be a fail-l) piofitable crop, particularly on the smaller farms where there is suf- ficlent,tinle for picking. Cucum- bers silouid be of spec al interest to ambitious boys and girls in rural districts, who could do the greater part of the work of grow- ing cucumbers in their vacations from college or university.

In the past year our car-ferry, "Abegweit". has begun work on the Borden -Tormentine route. This ferry is the largestund most, powerful in the world, and, as ls- innclers. ‘we have every reason to be proud of her. Since she has gone into operation, we are assur- ed that there will be’ no conges- tion of freight either at Borden or Tormentine. However, it would be another step in the right direction if sufficient suitable cars were made available when needed for shipping potatoes.

The threat of the sale of oieo- margarine in Canada hangs over the head 1 the dairyman like the sword of Damocies. However, a careful study of the whole situa- tion reveals the fact that practic- ally the only persons who would eventually gain anything by the sale of margarine here would be a possible half-dozen manufactur- grs of the product,

Agriculture is the basic indus- try of this Province. On the pros- perity of the farmer depends the welfare of the professional and the business man. To prevent. the ex- odus of our young men from the farms, SCIJIEUIIHK should be done to enable our agricuiturists to ob- tain a more equitable share o! the national’ income.

chairman J.H.

Soil Erosion

Perhaps a word of warning to farmers at this time would not be amiss. We, as farmers, not only here, but throughout the world. not only at the present time. but for centuries, have been guilty o! gross carelessness regarding soil conservation. Dr. J.A. Clark has made the statement that soil ero- sion causes the most serious loss sustained by the farmers o! Prince Edward Island. -

One of the greatest single fact- ors contributing to the poverty and political unrest of Greece to- day is soil erosion. The Greeks have become poorer and poorer as more and more of the topsoil has been washed down the hillsides. Coming nearer home. the amount of good soil allowed to be washed into the Ohio, Missouri and Miss- issippi Rivers i: almost beyond belief. Going into Maine we find

an area in A-roostook County gwhers more than s foot of soil and subsoil has been unnecessar- ily removed in s thirty year per- iod by careless cultural methods. In the hilly portions of oilr ovm province we see much of the harm erosion can do rendering hundreds of acres unft for any- thing but reforestation.

Much of this destruction could have been avoided by contour plowing or at least plowing at right angles to the general slope. Also, if winter rye were sown Where potatoes were harvested, the erosion caused by late fail and spfing rains and the melting of winter snows would be reduced to a minimum.

Submitted by Campbell.

As chairman of the marine committee, I herewith submit a report of the waterfront activities for season of 1947. which ‘were

opened in the month of May, by the arrival of the (Swedish) motor ship "Sig Corthem" and followed later by the M.V. “Ekhurst" (6.400 tons) and later by the Bo Borgeso (3400 tons register). _

Those ships were among the largest to enter the Port of Sum- merside. at Lily period, and were loaded for England with potatoes. with despatch and ‘satisfactory to the British Minister of Foods. who was present during the loading operaflon, and exprcssed- his ap- preciation in no uncertain man- ner. The ioadipg of those sh‘ps went a long way in advertising our port in shipping circles, as evidenced by the fact that I have received three enquiries from Norway and two from New York. about sc- commodation and facilities for handling cargoes.

The fact that all those cargoes were assembled by motor truck from the farms direct to the ship. thus eliminating a lot of handling. is worthy of note. and will deter- mine for the future, a big advant- age of our port ss s shipping cen- tre

The- Summerside Ali-Stars get tote defeat handed to themby the Navy, the only timg they met in e regular Charlottetown Hockey League fixture by edging out the Turs 4 to 3 in an" exhibition gune in Bummerside last Tuesday. True, the sailor boys were minus two of their husky defencemen. Fultie Pound asd Plum McDonald, but the Ali-Stars were also short some of their best players, Charlie

ighan being in Charlottetown and Bruce MscWilliams and Neil MacLeod not able to get in the game because of. illness. As usual the local boys got into high gear early in the first period. scoring three goals without. a return. and then rested on their laufeisto a1- low the Capital City boys't.ie the 851118 UP i" the third canto. From then on in it was a game replete with rousing action in which the Ail-Stars played the loading roic, bfit. not by any great margin.

The "dynamite line" of the Bum- merside Kinsmfin Juveniles con- tinue to blast opposing defences wide open. In Srrnmerside Wed- nesday night the home team piled up a total of 15 scoring points in potting six goals. Themdynamit- era" accounted for thirteen of these fifteen points. Maybe that will give you an idea. one of the things" that makes this line so potent is that they are absolutely unselfish when coming over the blue-line in a threesome. The itch that youngsters have to score the goal themselves never seems to enter their heads. Their passing plays in the enemy zone is a treat to watch.
