This is a new pest anf has dur-

Concern is evident in some quarters from the fact that there is apparently a carry over of po- tatoes in the province. At this time I the year the market for old po atoea is quite limited and with new potatoes from other quarter beginning to appear on the market and our own new crop not too far away the pros- pect of moving any olume is not too good.

They would be on a steep hill- side to facilitate idling from the top and emptying from the bot-
tom. The limestone was broughti
in by schooner 'in ballast from Nova Scotia and hauled with hors- es from the wharves to the kiln site. The kilns were filled with alternate layers of coal and lime- stone and fired from the bottom.
Once started, the could be a continuous one with coal and rock being added at the top and the burnt product remov- ed at the bottom. A few of these kilns st.lU remain in the province and there is one in particular built in 1906 which is in perfect condition and reflects very su- perior workmanship throughout its whole construction and in the dressing of the stone. Viewed from the front this kiln is almost of cathedral like appearance and even has the approaches to it fac- ed with dressed stone.
Such structures are an impor- tant historical link with the past and as such should be preserved as a reminder of an era in agricul- ture which passed away with the advent of mussel mud and ground it estone.
TARIFF MATTERS
At the Tariff Board hearing of fruit and vegetable scheduled for July 29, it is likely that the Fed- eration of Agriculture will empha- size it previously stated mquest that there should be provision for the application of fair market values of agricultural products rather than accepting the invoice price regardless of cost of produc- tion. This where surplus fruit and vegeta- ble may enter from other coun-
