Marketing Board Appeal
"Much time and thought was ex- pended in assisting the Potato Marketing Board in it's appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada. The results of this appeal was very en- couraging as it reversed the decis- ion of our Island Supreme Court on all counts excepting the levy which was used to promote the Potato Industry.
"After this decision the Potato Board was obliged to use s license system to promote the industry; the Federation did not desire this method of collection. not because of any unfairness but because of the opportunity it was leaving for the opponents of the Board to poison the minds of farmers who did not understand in which way the money was used. The Island Federation has had meetings with the Hon. Mr. Gardiner and other legal authorities in Ottawa to have ,a delegation of powers that would make the collection of the levy legal.

5 Important Meetings
! "On September 30th-the largest farmers meeting ever held on the Island was held at P. W. C. Hall, it was called to discuss the quest- ion of raising funds to advertise and promote the potaw industry. we were honored by the presence of Dr. Hannam. the President of the Canadian Federation of Agri- culture who spoke on the activities of the National Office. Prior to the annual Country meetings a series of school district meetings were held. In May a series of twenty six meetings were held across the Is- land. several speakers took part in attending as many as nine or ten different meetings. These were held in order to form an opinion as to re-organization of the Federation: The attendance of some was en- couraging and showed hopes of large units of Federation members but, many of the meetings were poorly attended and showed very little interest in larger units. "Future changes in organization must be made, nevertheless. as we, can plainly see many farmers wit '
ronage from one concern to other.
"This last year your director to the C.F.A. attended the annual meeting in January in Montreal, in which resolutions from all parts of Canada were discussed and put in form to be presented to the Cab- lnet of the Government of Canada.
"In June because of the serious position of livestock and livestock products. another dlrectors' meet- ing was held in Ottawa. At this time a brief was drawn up and presented to the Hon. J. O. Gardiner advocating a food de- fense program, in which 10 percent of money used in defense would be set aside to buy food for stockpil- ing and to feed the hungry people of the world.

Publicity Essential
"If we are going to make farm- ing a business we must act as busi- nessmen and pay our own way. 'Sometimes i wonder if all the farmers of Canada spend as much money to advertise all of their products as our large packing plants spend to advertise just one of their products. namely margar-E inc. and this at a time when sub- stitutes are menacing the liveli- hood of the majority of our farm- era.
"I should like to extend my: gratitude to the press and radio. for the publicity extended to the Fed- eration. I sometimes wonder if farmers realize that thousands of. copies of newsletters are published each week in the press besides the

Discusses Potatoes .
Mr. D. A. MacDonald of the Po- tato Marketing Board spoke briefly regarding the overall marketing position of potatoes. which he said was still good. He could see no good reason why this situation should not continue through January and February. In a few days he expects ed to hear definitely about the po- tatoes on hand in the Uriitod states. which would in a measure indicate the course necessary to be followed by the Board.
"I am hoping that we will be able to hold the line." continued Mr. MacDonald. "but will take any ac- lion necessary in the interest of the potato business."
He was also or the opinion that most of the seed Scbagocs on band would have to be disposed of as table stock. "We should be making
periodically to the school district officers.
"Also I would like to commend; our Defuty Minister of Agriculturei for his weekly broadcasts and for, help and guidance that he has al-r ways given the Federation.
"In closing I should ilk? to ex- tend by personal gratitude to the Country and Provincial directors who gave me the honor of being their chairman. They gave freely of their time in the interest of the members. the wise and fair judge- ments of these directors is respon- sible for the good financial posit- ion. and the prestige that has been
"The Federation can see only advantage in keeping ll W109 m” lg paying to the producer as well as one that is fair and just to the consumer.
"This past year has made great strides in the production of silos!!- especially grass. The farmers are finding that the lower cost of pro- duction determines the profit he will have. and if we are to succeed we shall have to produce as cheap- ly as possible and turn out a FY0- duct that has qualities that the consumer demands.
"At this annual meeting you will

"In reviewing Federation activit- ies it may be well to answer a question that we sometimes hear. Namely: What is wrong with farm organization? To this 1 would say. some people look upon farm or- ganizatlon as an organization that must cure all ills immediately. no matter how difficult the problem may be. If we are to look on this squarely we must. realize that the organization is just as strong as it's members. We must realize that the results of organized action is determined by the greatness of the problem. '
"We must realize that form or- ganlzatlon is young and even in its youth has contributed greatly to the farmers welfare. We must real- I lze that organized action by farm- ers has -barely scratched the sur- face of what must be done to put. farming and farmers into a bracket that. can be called business.
