DAIRY _ I FURTHER DISCUSSED
Leilers from Mr. J. A. Ilcwal'_.M.l..A., and llir. ll. Il. Splileli.
mr‘ I/ _
- Sir,- It was not my intention to decend into the arena to take part in
the-discussion of the dairy situation, but it has reached a stage where for various reasons I can no longer keep silent. As one who took an active part in promoting the Experimental Dairy Station established by Dr. J. W. Rob- ertson in 1892 at New Perth and who has been a patron of that In- stitution ever since, and one who has watched the growth and development of _the dairy industry. l wish to offer a few comments on the sitnetlon.
I have no hand in the in-trigues and
factional fights that have been in full swing for months. Personally 1 have no “axe to grind" apart from a general interest in the welfare of our farmers and dairymsn; with this class I have taken my stand and intend to fight their battles with all the ability of which_I am capable.
For some years back owing to the
help problem t'he question of keeping up our supply of milk has been a mat- ter of some concern, but there has, been nothing in the report of our Dairy instructor to cause any uneasi- ness in regard to the qualty of the pro- duct around 'which the present dis- cussion ls raging. A few months ago certain parties conceived the idea that our dairy products were getting inferior. This culminated in the col- lection of some literature dealing with the trade, which 'has found its way into the press.
As the action' of the
Dairy Association in publish- ing this matter has been called in question. 1 may say that the meeting when this decision was arrived at was not a full one. The directors for Prince County. Messrs Lea and Ellis were not present. Tre majority of the directors present voted for publica- tion contending tbat it would stren- Sthen tite'{_l"ls_trl_lctor ln his work. l Personal y I was opposed to publi-
cation and considered that action should havebeen deferred for a fuller meeting of the Board. There has been such a cloud of contradictory matter floating around that one might well oxclailn "What is truth?" When the elements of selfishness and specula- tion enter into the opinion of men you may get a mass of evidence that is scarcely worth the paper it is printed on.
The bulk of our cheese is shipped
to the British Islands and principally to the port of Glasgow. ln the report of Dairy Commissioner Ruddick for 1914, I find a statement by W. W. Moore chief of the Extension of Mar- kets Division. He says of a visit to Glasgow that thh leading importers spoke highly of Prince Edward Island cheese and claimed that it more close- ly resembled Scotch Chedders than cheese made in any other part of Canada. It is, in my opinion, high time that reports as to the inferior qua- lity of QW’ Products built mainly on mere fiction should come to an end. It is at present a theme for the press and platform. At a meeting of the Eastern Teachers Convention held in the Montague Auditorium a few nights ago Mr. F. R. Hcartz stated that our buttol' and cheese had become infer-_ ior. and that we were not getting the nriees we should get. He was speak- ing as President of the Development Association. aid to dairying being part of its programme. And much as l respect Mr. Haartz and his benevo lent intentions his statement goes on record and will have to be dealt with l was under the impression that one nf thc chief functions of that Associa- tion was to attract immigrants to our shores at the conclusion of the war. li' so this statement is an indictment of our Dairy Companies and their pat- rons. and an advance advertisement of our failure. _ '
Who are squealing about the prlcosl
of butter and cheese? lt is not tho tlalrymeni What is there in the pre- sent scale of prices that will justify complaint?
When oo-operative dairyln! WI! Bl'

The same cd" |19 said of butter. It must be e very grhedy producer who is not sstished with 35c. per lb for factory butter and 16%.afor cheese wholesale.

As the cheese were received at
Charlottetown for export one was taken at random from the make of each of these factories during the lat- ter part_of the months of June. July and August and the first half of Sep- tember. They were put in Cold Sto- rage and taken out at the time of the Exhibition.
95 is considered a very high score
for any exhibition. We are called on annually to pay a large sum out of the Provincial Treasury to sustain this ax- hlbltioll,. and l am in s position to know as one of the public custodians of those funds, that there are grave doubts about the utility of the grant, but if there is one thing more than another that would justify itsexist- ance ,it is the fact that this c0i11P8ti- tion is on public record, placed there by one of the greatest dairy experts in Canada. and it should serve as a warning to critics to keep their unholy tongues oil! the cheese business. The press of late have contained a glow- ing aocount of the Dunstaffnage Creamery showing an increase from 111 patrons in 1912 to 309 in 1915. The output increased in the same pe- riod from 56,000 to 107,000 lbs. with an average net value of 28.20 cts. per lb. butter fat and $1.07 per 100 lbs. milk. A decrease in the cost of manu- facture ls also reported. The direc- tors of the company deserve great cre- dit for the success that has crowned ` their efforts.
It is a fundamental law of nature
tllat buoyant health and vigor cannot exist in the same body with disease and consumption. But if the logic of the knockers is sound, if their glib statements in regard to the demorali-_ zation of our butter business are cor- rect this great Central Creamerywould be in a state of decay. rather than in the full flush of youthful vigor.
The leaders in the attack upon the
quality of our products are pointing with pride to the success of this cream- ery thus affording tangible evidence of their inconsistency and hypocricy. The dairymen of the Province will not rest upon their oars, they will seize the opportunity afforded by the pre- sent flood tlde of prosperity. They know that sanitary utensils the pro per care and cooling of milk. and a good makcr are the essentials for an excellent product. And this alone can win and hold the market.-
The Dairy Industry has stood the
test of time. lt gives a greater cash value than ally other Island lndustry and offers greater guarantees for fu- ture permanence alld prosperity. which can only exist through the fertility of the soil.
I am, Sir, etc.,

ST. JOHN, May 23.--On Monday
a man wearing a peaked cap was seen
tloned on the bridge ordered the man to halt. He was then on the lower side of the bridge near thc abutment of the old bridge. The guard com- manded the man to halt, but he paid no attention to the order. Once again did the -guard order a halt but before he uttered the command the man fired n shot at him. Immediately the guard fired two shots at the man but he made good his escape. Derrick, the guard at the other end of the bridge, ran to the assistance of his brother watch- mall but was unable to find any trace of the party.
Tile man ran towards the fisher-
man’s shanty and, according to the fisherman. who happen:-d to be ill a boat with J. Kerrie, he was a good runner. _Had not the party fired at the guard the affair would not _hav been so' serious. But it 'is felt tha? when a man at sllch an hour in the morning is caught sneaking around any bridge or building and when or- dered to halt shoots at the guard he
certainly is not there for anything goo .
