prospects are favourable for good prices this season and'no doubt mm; growers will feel that there 1; no need for the Potato Board to make any . cement with Ottawa, however. one good year does not solve the problem oi the WMW mdugtry for the future and Ottawa is not likely to be sympathetic to an industry which only seeks as- slatdncd in the diiflcult periods and in good years adopts an attitude that the farmers do not need to exercise conrol in the marketing of the crop-

while in theory the island potato crop was marketed under a pool gym,-m last year. yet in iaot. lgst year was not a demonstration of the effects of pooling as the sunr- anteed initial payment was for the whole period above the market price and no iinal mvment Wu WI- srble.

It is apparently the iniontlon of the Board to operate a number oi time pools for the coming season rm; this arrangement will make possible an interim payment at the md of each pool in addition to the initial payment. an arrangement which should result in Potato money going to the producer quite steadily throughout the year.

Farmers who were equipped to store silage and did so early in the seeson have certainly obtained

L advantage over those who are still forced to put up hay at a season when the feeding value is very much lowered.

Nothing:

Occasionally we hear individual farmers make the statement that the Federation oi Agriculture has done nothing. In this instance "nothing".is a term which covers some very worth while achieve- ments. Is it nothing that the red- eration was able to ” '- the passing of the Agricultural Prices! Support Act and the setting up oi' the Agricultural Prices Support Board? Is it nothing that alter Mme Years of urging the Federa- tion was mble to induce the Federal Government to pass the Federal Marketing Act which was unanim- ously upheld as constitutional by the highest court in Canada.

Is it nothing that through over 10 years oi constant negotiation, with innumerable consultations and conferences, the Federation has been able to obtain a complete revamp' , of the policy respecting the application or income tax regu- lations to the farming business which wiped out old inequalities and injustices, and provided ior such institutions as the averaging of farm income, the basic herd sys- tem, the re-adjustment of J , i tion allowances, the farm income tax guide, and innumera” o er concessions and improvements?

Is it nothing that the Federation in the early years of the war ne- gotiated the federal freight alsist- ance policy on iced grains, which brought these iced grains to the doors of the eastern 1iveatockifeed- era at rates which eliminated for the farmers the burden oi the freight transportation costs over the wide gap between the prairies and the cast. a policy which has since been acclaimed by all mem- bers oi all parties in the commons and which has saved many miluona oi dollars for eastern iarmers?

The most recent team to visit here was headed ior points in Sweden. Germany and Belgium, previously there were other visitors who were going to Ireland, Italy, Holland, England and Austria.

Did you know that a flock of whoopin cranes were actually as- corted by planes to their breeding grounds in Saskatchewan last spr- ing? The 24 whooping cranes were thus guarded en route because they are the only survivors oi their species, and the largest birds on tho continent.

Believe it or not. but especially trained dogs in England are sent to Jamaica to sniff out Marijuana.

The navy sinks some oi its old ships every year for the benaiit oi students at the Naval School for Salvage Divers at the Bayonne Base. The idea in sinking these ships is to have the students repair them and then reiloat them.
