OTTAWA. Oct. 10 -(Ci?) - The Federal Government has gained control over the butter market, agricultural sources disclosed to- day. '

They said the flow of surplus butter into government isrdere during the summer was big enough to give the government the upper hand in stabaillzlng butter prices through the winter. t

Officials declined to disclose how much butter the government has stored. one commercial dairy ex- pert estimated that it might be about 46,000,000 pounds.

In its latest estimate, the .Bur- eau of Statistics placed

Baiile iijes 5th Day For White Horse Mouniain

SIEUUL. Oct. 11 --(Saturday)- --(A!') - The bloody, indecisive battle of White Horse Mountain on the Korean western front today raged into its fifth day with the

Chinese Communists ready to throw 16,000 fresh troops into the struggle.

Never-say-die south Korean in- fantrymen battled back to within 150 yards of its crest under fierce Chinese artillery and mortar fire.

Rain was falling, making pro- gress still more difficult.

The height, guarding the ID- proacbes to the Chorwon valley on one of the main invasion routes to Seoul, changed hands more than a score of times since Monday-seven times on Friday alone. It was the fiercest action in more than a year.

wild hand-to-hand fighting in pitch darkness late Friday tumbled South Korean 9th-Division troops off the crest. They reformed and launched a counter-attack early today.

Front reports said the Chinese Reds massed 16.000 fresh men-two divisions-within "easy striking E136" just north of the mount-

Allied and Communist tanks duelled on the lower slopes. Allied planes dropped flares to light up the eerie battle scene. '

Fighting continued Friday at several other points on the 155- mile-long front, but was dwarfed by the action at White Horse. The United States Eighth Army report- ed Allied t oops of Big Nor Hill. eight miles north- west of Yonchon. It was seven hills overrun when Chinese launched their day night.

Island Man Meets Bad S Luck At Plowing Match

By Ken Kelly Canadian Press Staff Writer

CAIRP. Ont... Oct. 10 -(CP)- Doug Reid. 26-year-old Brampton, ont.. farmer. today won the Can- adian tractor plowing champion- ship at the international plowing matches.

The championship for horse plowing went to veteran plowman Algie Wallace of North Gower, Ont. near Ottawa. Wallace's vic- tory was the first championship won by an Eastern Ontario plow- man at the matches;

Reid scored his victory against 23 other competitors. It was his first entry in the championship class at the annual match epon- sored by the Ontario Plowmen's Association.

The two champions won free trips to Europe. Officials of the Ontario PIowmen's. Association said arrangements may be made to send them overseas next month to compete in plowing matches in England and Scotland. second in the tractor class went to Ivan McLaughlin of stouffviile. Ont. Joe Tran of cleremont. Ont... placed third.

U. S; Potato Crop Estimate Placed Al 345,561,000 Bus.

The United States potato crop

report for October lot. just issued, places the estimated total produc-

tion at 345,561,000 bushels, as compared with 337,085,000 bushels

on September 1st. or an increase

of nearly eight million bushels, states Mr. S. G. Peppin, technical advisor to the P. E. I. Potato Mar- keting Board.

The final figure for the 1951 crop was placed at slightly more than 325 million bushels so that the 1052 crop is approximately 20 million bushels above that of last

year.

"This amount. however," Mr. Peppin says, "can be considerably

PEI Farm Production Balance Well Maintaigil During 1952

(By W. R. Show. Deputy Minister of Agriculture)

As we giving season the people of Prince Edward Island should feel a spir- it of deep gratitude to the Divine Architect and I-lusbandman for the many beneficent gifts provid- ed during the good season of 1952. Vcryiaeldom have we ex- perienced a year; marked by so many delightful sunny days and such rare natural beauty. In ad- dition the good earth has pro- duced abundantly of its fruitful- ness in the form of products of more than ordinary Iielity and

0 - .1 . e 'prev- ious year. and seldom have we had a better -balanced production of superior products. While the latter part of the growing season might be termed "dry", and af- fected pasture growth to some ex- tent. crops nevertheless suffered very little disadvantage. Delight- ful sunny weather prevailed dur- ing July. August, and September, with almost twice as much sun- shine prevailing as in 1951. while the month of September was the third highest on record in so far as sunny weather is concerned. Midsummer estimates of .acre- ages of field crops indicate on the whole a slight increase over those of 1951. A readjustment of the 1951 Bureau of Statistics figures to conform with census return fig- ures had made it a little difficult to make comparisons. Neverthe- less. the crop position in acres seems to be very satisfactory. Although the published figures for wheat in 1952 are below those of 1951. I personally feel that the wheat acreage has not decreased. Oats is down slightly, as is also mixed grains. but there is a slight increase in barley. The potato acreage is up from 1075. to 1279 at approximately 33,400 acres com- pared with 29,600 in ihh previous

on the market as soon as harvest- ed. Large producing areas such as New Jersey and Long Island to- day have very few potatoes to market, having placed little or none in storage. ,

"There is adecidedly strong tone to the market at the present time. A statement recently issued by the United States Department of Agriculture at Washington warned U. S. housewives they .may face another shortage next spring. The statement went on to say that farmers are not storing as many potatoes as usual to be carried over to spring, the demand has been so great they have been able to market most of this year's crop."

year. Of this acreage 23,119 acres were entered for certification as against 21,771 in 1951, and 21.049 passed this year as against 19.502 in Hie previous season. Field roots are slightly down in area. Theyieid per non: of grains is also below the yield of 1951, but the exceptional quality and the excellence of the harvesting sea- son will carry the real feeding value of Island grains to a very high level. Potato production will be substantially higher per acre. The production generally is heavy and the quality is. good.

Killed. liar His Own Dwelling Lasi Evening

A seventy-four-year-old Brook- field carpenter, Mr. John Mobbs, was killed in a highway accident a short distance from his home last. evening when he was struck by a. car operated by Harvey MacNeiil of Hunter River.

Mr. Mobbs was reported to have been walking on the right hand side of the road in a. westerly dir- ection toward his home when the accident occurred. He had a bag of groceries with him.

It is understood that the driver of the 1939 Ford Coach involved in the accident was blinded by the lights of an oncoming vehicle and failed to see the elderly man walk- ing on the highw:.y. Mr. MacNeill stopped the car and remained at the icons of the accident.

The spot where the fatality oc- curred is about thirteen miles from Charlottetown and the time of the accident is reported to have been shortly before set en o'clock.

Coroner Dr. L. E. Prorwsc told the Guardian that the deceased suf- fered a broken neck. His body was found In the ditch by the side of the road a. short distance over the crest of a hill a few hundred yards from the late Mr. .vfobb's residence.

A Jury was empanneiled and the inquest was adjourned until Thurs- day evening, October 16, at eight o'clock at City Hall. Members of the Jury are: Messrs Major Mac. Rae, Wdnsloe. foreman. Wilbert Stetson, Sherwin MacDuff, Earl MBCRHE, Wendail Rodd, John Cagew and Eric Paul, all of Brookfield.

The late Mr. ivfobbs lived with his brother, Robert. the only surviving member of the family. He was not married.
