Warns Di Danger Di Soil Depletion

HAIJPAX. Aug. 26 — (OP)- Clarence T. Fltzrandolph of Bridgetown, N. S., secretary-treas- urer of the Nova. scotla Farmers’ Association. said today that the “average farm income in Nova Sculls was only $807 a year or $185 a. year on a per-capita basis."

In an address before s service club. Mr. Fitzrandolph appealed for a more equitable distribution

of wealth between farm anu urban dwellings. ‘ He said the farming industry

has had to bear the cost of many of the adjustments in the Carla» dian economy.

"Soil can be depleted so grad- ually it can creep up on us and hardly be noticed." he said ii. warning of the dangers of soil de- pletion in Nova Scotie. _

"We have got to sse to it that the farmer has a decent standard of living so he can keep up hi.» farm."

Egg Production For Your, lligh

Mir. P. M. Nash of the Dominion Willi-Ii’ Service reports egg pro duction on Prince Edward. Island still declining less rapidly than heretofore due in pullet eggs coming oil the mamket. rho production of fits for the year has been high_ Birds came into production early in 194.7 and are continuing pro- duction late into 1948 as e lderlced by receipts at the present time which are '15 per cent greater than for the salme pcri last year. The quality of the egg being re- ceived by Registered Grading Stations is good but the quality of eggs marketed by most first re- ceivers. that ls. merchants not operating Grading Stations. is poor. This might be clue to conditions under which the eggs are held (no storage) or to the quality of the eggs offered for sale by the pro- ducers. Whatever the reason, the matter should be locked into. and improvements made for the good of Island eggs As a. whole.

The egg market es it effects pro- ducers is unsettled. paying prices have decreased by 8 cents per dozen_ At the time of writing prices have ‘not been reduced correspond- ingly to retailers and consumers in trhe other Maritime Provinces as evidenced by newspaper and radio reports. Producers are not so adverse to louver prices provided the reduction is passed on. to the consumer, thereby increasing con- sumption of the product ‘which in turn creates greater outlets for their product. The reason given for the dop in egg prices is the offer- ing of Grade A large eggs by Central Canadian Firms at fifty- four and as low as fifty-one cents per dozen delivered in the Marl- times. Toronto and Montreal markets broke on the 24th and are now quoting, "A" large in new cases. Toronto 50. Mnotreal 54. P. E. I_ exports out of the province most of the eggs produced. there- fore. must compete with these prices.

Due to lower prices operators of grading stations are now quoting Droducers for ungraded eggs. Grade A Large 46. Grade A Medium, 44, Grade B 36. Grade C 23. and receiving for the graded pan in new cases. Grade A Large 51. rsde A Medium 49, Grade B ll, Grade C

Wholesalers are quoting retail- 81s for the graded cartoned pack. Grade A Large 56. Grade A Medium 54. Grade B loose 45. Eggs are re. tailing to consumers Grade A Large ca. Grade A Medium s1, Grade B loose 55.

The poultry market is not very active. Fowl are scarce and chick- ens are not sufficiently developed for marketing pllrposeg_ Local prices have advanced and dealers are now quoting producers for chicken dressed over 5 pounds. Special Milkfcd 43. Grade A Milk- fcd 42. Grade ‘B 37. Grade C 20 Fowl dressed Grade A 32, Grade B 30. GradeC 18 and for live fowl delivered at their plants five pounds and up, number ones 2'7, four to five noun-is 22. tinder four pounds 20. Number two fowl all weights 10.

A paragraph appearing in the Egg & Poultry Marketing report entitled "Selcvicmien All" can stand repeating, it reads as follows: "servicemen All" sums up a con- ception that embraces all in any- way connected with the poultry industry. producers, breeders. hatch- erymen. transportation agencies, the produce trade, the feed and equipment manufacturers. govern- ment. officials. the colleges. the press argl the radio. etc. The poultry industry was not built up for the exclusive benefit of any one group or individual. It is the success of the industry that counts. then all will benefit. The job would be to plan the industry so that the average producer is reasonably successful. Efficiency in production and handling can be‘se important as prlce_ Sustained pro- duction, economical production avoidance of waste, labour saving eGSVlCES all increase the not return. Reasonably remunerstlve product- ion is basic to continued poultry Industry prosperity. Service is more important than expansion...
