POTATO PROSPECTS
The recent market increase in potato prices will be very wel- home to growers that still have supplies on hand and the total is likely quite su-bstantiali The im- provements in potatoes can lar- gely be attributed to two factors.
First, the February 1 report of stocks on hand were quite fav- ourable in United States although Canadian stocks had shown rough- ly a ten percent increase from those of last year.
Second, is the situation in Flor- ida which has hadsome of the worst weather on recored, these weather conditions will mean that the early potatoes in Florida in- stead of coming onto the market from March to May will be much later and will not be competing with the old potatoes at as early a period. .- _
In addition to this planting has been delaying in other potato sec- tions in the United States such as Alalbamaand California.
Further for the past few weeks there has been extremely stormy cold weather and bad travelling in Maine, Pennsylvania and New York. These are the conditions that have influenced prices re- cently, whether the market con- tinues to rise and remains at high levels is difficult to predict.
There does/not appear to be I real shortage of potatoes in Can- ada or United States but weath- er and growing conditions can ef- fect the demand and that is what‘ has happened. ’ POTATO QUALITY .
. Generally we take a good bit of pride in the excellence" of our potato production and the" good
‘ "quality of the product. Admitted-
ly we do grow good potatoes in -this province but unfortunately- the sample which appears in re-
tail outlets is not always, good. ‘
/’ To illustrate the point the On- tario Soil and Crop Improvement Convention featured a consumer package potato survey exhibit at its annual meeting. The exhibit consisted of ten-pound bags of po- tatoes wh-ich had been purchased by inspectors of the Fruit Branch a-t retail stores. These samples
{were classified as excellent, good,
worthy and unworthy. To begin with out of the 160 lots 17 from Ontario, 8 from P.E.I a~nd'1 from New Brunswick were under - weight. ‘ ‘ ’
Ontario-distinguished itself with 73 per cent in the unworthy col- umn. The point would seem to be that in spite of quality pro- duction and a highly developed‘ system of inspection unsatisfac- tory potatoes are still being of- fered to the public to its annoy- ance and to the detriment of the potato industry. The solution of this problem is the responsibility of all concerned the grower, the dealer and the inspector. Unless a change takes place the potato grower can look forward to a con-
tinuing decline in, per capita com-,
sumption of potates. PRICE STABLIZATION , Agriculture will note with inter- est the announcement by the Prime Minister that the Agricul- tural Stabilization Act is to be proclaimed on March 3. While there is nothing definite at the moment it may be expected that the machinery will be set in mo.- tion to give some idea of what farmers may expect from the new bill. Political nature being what it" is may be expected that the government will be interested in having the act make the best pos- sible impression on the voting farmer. , However this is not to suggest that the bill is in any sense an election catch-all’. regardless of what party may be in power fol- lowing the election it can be as- sumed that there will be a gen- eral development in providing more assistance in improving the position of agriculture. This is the trend and one which will lik- ely continue until agriculture is better organized to bargain more effectively in the selling of its products. WEATHER TALK The weather is a matter of . both interst and importance to ru- ral people. Heat and frost, rain and drought, wind and cloud, all have a bearing on the farmer’s work and on his production. Of recent» years weather forecasting has become quite an exact science with press and radio bringing in- formation quickly to the general public. No one questions the va- lue of this service and quite lik- ely there is no other informa- tion that is awaited with any greater intepe,st, P.E.I. people watch the weather and the fore- cast cannot fail to observe that in many cases the forecast and the weather do not agree. A forecast which covers the en- tire province may be accurate for
a
one point and yet wide of the mark somewhere else. For in- stance, there is a great deal more snow at the present time in the Western 'part of the prov- ince than about Charlottetown and almost twice as much on the le- vel~in the Montague area as in the city.
Repeatedly there will be mark- ed difference in snowfall, rain- fall a-nd temperature betwen Char- lottetown and Montague with the County Line appearing to be the border of the=two areas. The point is that weather forecasting if it is to be accurate and of the greatest value should take in- to consideration the fact th at Prince Edward Island is not uni- formly in one weather zone and that marked variations do occur and should be recognized. As a firststep in compiling authentic data on the variations the me- teorological people might consid- er the setting up of reporting stations at a number of‘differnet points i-n this province. - CENTRAL INSTITUTE
Probably the oldest farm or- ganization in this province is the‘ Central Farmers Institute which will hold its 70th annual meeting in March. At one time there yvas a large number of active iiisti- tutes which played an important part in Livestock improvement, in improving farm practices and in the grouptbuying and selling" of farm supplies and products.’ For many years the Central Far-
tant part in the field of policy- making for agriculture. Many of the problems that were debated and many of the resolutions de- veloped continue to be the found- ation for farm policy in this pro- vince. . 2 \ As the number of inst-itu-tes de- clinded and as famn people saw the need for uniting all farm or- ganizations. -thus the Federation of Agriculture came into being and assumed the role of the major policymaker. As an important fea- ture of Farmers Week the Cen- tral Farmer-s Institute is able to provide the farmer a meeting in which production and manage- ment problems maybe debated and information on these matters made available.
“LOW INCOME” FARMER Next Monday evenin-g'Farm Fo- rum brings to its listeners and groups a discussion on the pro- blem of the low income farmer. Who is he? What -are his pro- blems? So we need special pol- icies and programs to meet them? This topic would appear to be one which should create some interest on the part of many farmers, for the most part nearly all farmers believe that their in- come is too low. Questions to be debated are: ,Is there a special problem of the low income far- mer and should specific policies be developed to help him? If special programs are required, should these be (a) to help him increase his income from th'e farm (b) to help him become es- tablished in some other industry.
