There is a further complaint re- garding the difficulty of selling milk during the time spent at Aim- herst. It is pointed out that three cows in milk could pay the bcarri of the snowmen and attendants if milk could be sold at regular prices. In the past, the milk can only be given or thrown away as e general rule. Mr. Mulch suggests that the Fair officials should make arrangements for collections iwic: a day to the local distributors.

The price has been considerably above the average price of the last two or three years. The cutting quality has been "fairly good." states Mr. Shaw although oversize turnips this year has be- come quite a. problem. The great- est defects are wire-worms and ofi- type.

Mr. Shaw takes this opportunity to wern the growers, who ere gen- erally the packers, that oversize turnips snnot be accepted and that eny complaints to date arc about the size and wire-worms. inspectors are having greet diffi- culty this yeer keeping the size down to oonfosvn to the grade. Sev- erel growers have had to make considerable compensation to the shipper for poor grade. mostly oversize, even after inspection. . “Some packers have made the mistake of thinking that. if the

‘ inspected. have passed. that they have no further responsi- bility for the grade on the balance of the shipment. This is definitely not so," Mr. Shaw emphasized.

Potatoes

‘Iieble potato shipments are up almost 100 per cent up until Sci?- tatnber 30 this year compared to the same period in 1948. A total oi 196 cers have been shipped to Canadian and 11.8. points includ- ing e cer to st. Pierre. Lest year than were 105 cars shipped during the lune period.

considerable compensation to pro- ducers. ,

Some of this reduced production has been due to the lower sale 0f chicks in the spring of 1948. Mr- Nash explained.

As to the future, if satisfactory egg contracts are made with G118?- Bi-iiain. here should be no prob- lem and the business will remain normal. Otherwise. pnulirymen must find new outlets and/or in- crease Canadian consumption.
