: The Charlottetown, Fri. ‘Sept. 21. .1062. 8! Advisory Service V Gaining Support
There's merit in the suggestion to have a potato price advisory service for the farmer, Agricul- ture Minister Andrew Macltae observed yesterday from the premier’: office, where he has
ac g or some time on behalf of Premier Walter Shaw, who is successfully recuperating from a recent operation,
r. MacRae suggests that possibly some of the more ex- perienced and reputable dealers could act with the potato mar- keting board as a committee, to provide this information. DOING GOOD JOB
Mr. MacRae suggested that the majority of the dealers are doing a really good job,‘ and
they are trying to get as much ket
as possible for the Island's po- tatoes. But, he added. if some others out prices, these men
are sometimes forced to do the same to stay in competition_
“We‘haven't the staff in the department of agriculture to pro- vide such a service." said the minister and a ing - premier who believes that somethng may be worked out. though he has not had an opportunity yet to
'scu-ss the problem wi the marketing board here.
The suggestion arose yester- ay during an interview this pa- per had with Marketing Director Reid Sangster. who believes that such a service woud be helpful to the potato industry.
Mr. Sangster said he would be ready to start naming people who were to undercut the mar- ‘ e policy persisted. “Bi.rt," he added, “there have been no reports of this sort of thing in the past few days."
