“The Maritimers are a great peo- ple and frankly admit it," [said Mr. Bennett opening hi! reply to the tout, "There are no finer people in canads today or ever have been wherever we go, be it Winnipeg. Cal Ilry, Vancouver, or any city where vcifind a fempeople formed togeth- er in n Maritime Association.

"If the churches in Westorn Can- ida need a new bishop or a new rhin- istcr, where do they go? Why, to (lie Maritimes of course. In faot, when s University needs a professor a president it niust be a Maritimer when a bank or an industry need Iii official it seems inevitable that lie come from the land of the Blue- noses. And it seems that the intang- ible things which holds us together is our lord. If we have fai-ih in our Father then we must of necessary have faith in \- ives and hold to the traditions ‘which have made the lfaritiiua provinces an; indispensable part of Canada.

A. E. LcPage, prominent real os- iite man from Prince Edward Is-

land (casted the Maritimes. "It seems. said Mr. IoPage. "that through the ever-increasing trade between On- tario and the provinces a friend- ship-is being cemented which can never be broken," Prof. E. D. Mac- Phee. president of the Association announced that. the mrn would ba holding a "cod fish dinner" en Ilels- rulay 4th and that the ladies were holding several functions during thei next month or so.

Governor Hearts (has given trophies for a similar pur- lcose u. sumo. w. us himself had the pleasure ofniaking the presen- ‘(atlon at faunchins. in eastern Kings. where tho farmers exhibited the greatest enthusiasm in the malt- ;ter. Ollpg. are presented to only lthrec individuals although more than thirty have competed. The per- ,son winning the. prises eaoh year keeps them.

Mr. Jas. Dennis who was present. rip ’ his appreciation for the trophy. The same was also voiced by Mr. ‘D. J. Stow/art, who expressed the idea that carefully tended farrm are monuments of industry. _

Mr. H. H. Shaw, superintendent of Education, was called upon to re- ceive the cup for Mrs, Pursey. Af- ter expressing hi thanks on behalf of the recipient Mr. Shaw stated that five or six years ago the Horti- culture Department of Canada of- fered (o provide a cup for the soiiool ins-king the greatest improvement in its grounds. '

His Honour contributed a cup for the whole Island, the trophy being won by the school in Hampshire, formerly a very poor school. A new (school was built after mvch opposi- ‘ii-ion. and the shool went on im- piovlng and finally won the cup. Recently Mr. Shaw stated that lie said at the ‘Rod Cross meeting that {he visited fifty schools. and that [from his observations he thought iii-lat the schools had improved more ‘in the last ten years than they had in the time preceding since the en- aotment of the school act.

Ills Honour stated that Mr. Show hos carried out the peculiarities for which he is noted in "chevclioz la

originated. It is gratifyng to not: that increasing interest is being tak- en in the moron-rant. it. is the (ouch of the ladies that has brought out

lemme." It was through the Min-j (bier of Agriculture that the schema‘

cars infiieorgetown. Shipping pro- duce tn such quantities is a tremend- ous proposition. ‘There should be better facilities for storing possessed by individuals, as it shown by the fact that the amount of potatoes on irimd was oontinuallyincreasing de- spite the fact that. three steamers irr/‘e loading at once.

If the potatoes in New York were still on hand. (he situation would not be as favourable as it is at present. Protected cars are not as well in- suiated as they might be. It seems to be all right for all psi-tics con- cerned to place the potatoes iii stor- age. One of the‘ difficulties met by the Association ' is the contention that all members of the organization are not treated similary, but thee are often circumstances over which the body has no control. In the load- ing of the last steamers potatoes have come in in cars on cold days. Pot- atoes ofien arrive at their destina- tion frozen. when the fault is found to lic with the shipper there is noth- ing to do but pny the shipper table stock prices. Such a coiidiiion oc- curred frequently in December. A few [frozen sack,- may easily condemn a whole car. These potatoes cannot then be regarded except as table stock. When the potatoes are report- cd by the inspeoiors as frozen before being placed in the cars the railway cannot be licld responsible.

Of the two steamers which load- cd at Christmas one was sent to Carolina and the other lo Cuba, boili xirrlvii-ig in perfect condition.

The question of what (o do with ipoiatoes at the present time i._s a difficult one to answer. The demand for seed will come only from Oun- 1tlc and New York, as southern grow crs bought their} seed last fall. _

Florida has 32,000 acres planted this year, (he largest ever planted there. Conditions in the southen states should show how many ac- Ii-es it, would be wise to plant here next mason. The table stock mark- ri, (ills week is very dull, but will probably strengthen in February. ."i‘i""s so in!‘ have been very satis- ‘ccioi-yr 090 cars have been shipped fromtlic ppvincc during January.

In all my experience," Mr. Booth was quoted as saying, "I have never seen any- thing like i(." if there was anything loose or shipahod in the work of the Association the organization would not have such a. record. The work is most enjoyable although extremely trying on the nerves. The associat- ion ddes not run by chance. Do no: let any person say that this busin- ess is not conducted in a business- like way."

Three very interesting and educa- tional lectures nrrc dcllvcrctl at. tlic evening sersion by Mr. John .Tuc‘.<ci' of the seed certification department Mr. R- R. Hurst, provincial patholi- gist, and Mr. s. Ci. Peppin, Chief Potato Inspector.

Mr. ‘Pucker 'w1io was the first speaker gave a very interesting ac- count. of the work of the certifica- tion department. The Dominion dst ‘anizt is the chief officer iri connec- .tion with the seed certification work -v;hich began in 1915.
