Announcement has come through ilrorn Ottawa during the week that a iloor price oi 26c has been placed on hogs at Montreal. This has not been as high as we
fcel cost 0! production would merit. and it is considerably away irom.the 28c level, basis
Winnipeg. that hasbeen recom- mended by agricultural interests. In any event this price should hold hog prices at its present level.
Potatoes
The potato situation is almost" at a standstill owing to roads. but the position has improved somewhat with a little better demand. American competition has slackened oi! some and it would look as it this will not be A completely strong factor from now on. unless, oi! course, Cana- dian prices move up so that it will be more profitable for Am- erican producers to Ship into Canada than to sell at I.hOii” own price ceiling level. New Bruns- wick quotations seem to be has- ed on about 52.00 per bushel at loading point, and in view or quality and past experience the price here should be on a some- what similar basis.

We have heard much criticism re paying producer prices tor eggs and poultry as compared with provinces across Canada with similar or like marketing conditions. In order to give you information on this subject. we have checked prices as reported in poultry products Market Re- port issued by the Canada De- partment ni Agriculture as or February 8th'. and following are the ilndings:
Prices to producers: Prince Edward Island dealers are pay- ing a. price for Grade A Large and Grade A Medium eggs which is the equal or in line with prices across Canada but prices on the other grades are somewhat low- er; three to four ccnt,s lower on Grade B and two to four cents on C grades. This comment is based on Charlottetown prices. These comparisons might be dif- ierent it comparisons were made with other points in the Prov. ince. Wholesale to retail-A1. though paying prices to produc- ers are generally lower than the average for Canada, prices retailers arc above the Canadian average. Prices to consumers are slightly higher here than ior "36 trades or eggs charged across
