"Nutritionists claim that Canad- ian grown carrots are superior to those imported. There is no reason why they cannot be presented to the consumer in an attractive, eye- appeallng manner." .

0! Local Interest

Commenting on the above state- ment, Mr. W. R. Shaw, Deputy Minister of Agriculture, says:

"The attention oi vegetable pro- ducers has been directed within recent times toward the importance of the irult and vegetable crop of Prince Edward Island. The spot- light during the past winter has rested particularly on carrots. Large importations at this vegetable have been made from Texas and California, and when a comparison is made between the Island grown ploduct and the imports we must admit that our home product comes out a very bad second best. This is true. to a very great extent. be- cause of lack of knowledge of prop- er varicties, grading. and packaging.

"it will be noted in the reference to varieties that Danvers. Chantenay. or Oxheart type, are no longer suitable. Nevertheless. the bulk of carrots grown on Prince Edward Island are oi’ these var- letics.

"Our carrot producers are urged to read this article very carefully, and contact the Experimental l’-‘arm. Charlottetown. for iurlher information regarding suitable var- lctlcs and conditions for the pro- ducllon of a top class carrot pro- duct in this Province. A vast im- provement can be made in this respect. and with proper selection, cleaning. and packaging. there is no reason why our home producers should give way on our domestic market to products that come to the Province a distance oi thous- ands oi miles. and compete in our

home market."

He stated that the wo- men worked % hours a month. "Some days they work long hours but they have time 01! to com- pensste. Otherwise it would be necessary to have three shifts. One day they may work 12 hours and the next day four or five."

The Premier stated that he had devised the sliding scale method oi paying salaries when he was Minister of Health and Welfare and that during the first year it was highly successiul.

He stated that if the em- ployee: knew they were getting regular increases they would be highly satisfied and that the grading of employees would prove an eiiective method of retaining trained engineers and agricul- tural men.

The Premier also refuted stair- ments that the employees at Fal- conwood Furm were being under- paid ior over-work and that the Government had decided to sell Mermaid Lake. He spoke briefly oi‘-out his plan for rural electri- fication.

"The Leader of the Opposition stated that it was more costly to build the Trans Canada road through Churchill than by any other way," stated Premier Maill- rson. “He was 100% wrong."

Mr. Br.-ll——“You have the infor- mation?" . Premier-—"You diLln‘t ask for

Mr. Bell—"I asked for it your in and year out. I dion‘t ask you

because you didn't hnvc it." The Premier replied that he lzad asked for surveys oi three

possible routes for the road. “\\'c asked for a survey from Bonsliaw through Churchill. New Haven. Clyde River to Charlottetown; another from Bonshaw to Corn- wall via N0l‘l.ll River Road; and one irom Bonshaw to Cornwall via South Shore and no decision could he made until the iigurcs were available.

Cheapest Road

"It was decided that the cheap- est road irom Bonshaw was through Churchill. That's why the road is going where it is go- ing.

“The Leader of the Opposition made one statement that it cost 330.000 to lay light pavement from Cornwall to New Haven and that we will lose quite a bit of money

if we build the Trans Canada Highway over this route. I be- lieve it was money well spent.

Over the years since it was laid it has given dust-tree roads."

Mr. Bell—"It was put down to bent me in the last election."

Premler—"If we acted the way he suggests we would still keep it (or another election but we are not that type."

Mr. Be1l——“Why did you prom- lsc the bridges at North River and West River?"

Premler—-"We are beyond halt- timerto the next election and there will be no new West River Bridge. Last night the Leader of the Opposition asked why not have two paved roads, one road on the South Shore and the other through New Haven nnll (‘.l_\-do Rlver. He wants all pavr-nu-nts in his own district.
