August which is usually one of ,.., hottest. and driest months has gotten off the track this year so

far as rainfall is concerned. While .he moist. humid weather is pray. in; disastrous to the potato crop, damaging early cut grain. and :auslng rust in the late grain. yet a uniidcrful foundation is being laid for future grass and hay :i'ops.

A good sod is one of the prime factors in agricultural production mi prosperity. Excessive rain- fall is not so serious as excessive jioiighi. the ill effect of which in one year may carry over into the next or even longer.

The Grain Trade Again

in attendance at the recent (T. F. A. meeting at MacDonald College. was Mr. George Mclvor. Ch;of C0riInIlFSl0nCI of the Wheat

Board which controls also the. iiisrkrtiiig of .u-csicrn coarse griilns.

Fri-iii an caslcrn viewpoint two iiiinrovemcnis were desirable, greater stability in prices and a sleadirr supply of grain for east- ern feeders. The latter felt this problem might' be solved by the Whcat Board holding in reserve at the (imii-ciati Bay ports, graiti ,-.i-aiiiilvc for the eastern market. ll: Yilrliur ;i'.tr(-t-ri to gel the ripinion of his Board on these questiriiis and report to the C.F.A.

in the question of stability in

pm-es it is the opinion of the ivhmt Board that due to this ic:t:- '..ir;.'c (Top the influence of export buying will not be as great .is in the past year. This

should help to decrease the fre- quent. and wide fluctuations -.ihic:; took place inst year in the pricr of feed wheat, barley and Dali.

in rraard in the second ques- lion that of the Board holding (rain at the Bay ports. it is the opinzon that this would result in ii det'i'ea.se in movement. by the made which would be fearful ilicy uoulrl not. be able to dispose of mu: -locks. Further the trans-

It Is quite apparent that the Wheat Board expects the grain

Traffic Controller

A recent announcement bv the

Dominion Government that is traffic controller would be ap- pointed emiphaslz the serious problem facing the west in mov- ml this year's bumper harvest. . The Question of the dI?slrabll- ity of having a traffic controller was discussed at the C.F.A. meet- ml. the opinion being that such a controller would hardly be en- dowed with the wide power; of that office during the war time and would quite likely not be too effective without them. Therefore. no recommendation was made.

Good Eu or Bad

Nobody relishes I bad egg and it is the responsibility of the pro- ducer and the trade to see that the consumer gets a high quality product. The last ten years has seen a marked improvement in quality with the establishment of en Sliding stations provided with proper cooling faciliiics.

Previous to 1910 great quanti- ties of eggs were shipped from all over the province by rail to a central grading station in Char- lottetown and often in rush sca- sons these eggs were held in warm freight sheds and after sradlnl stored at ordinary room temperatures.

In this respect at least our Present system is a great improve- ment. Large poultry establish- ments such as those of Ella and Chase in Nova Scotla are in a position to grade and land on the Halifax market. eggs within twenty four hours after being laid. The average farm flock owner is in no position to duplicate such efficiency but, if he is to coin- pete he must be prepared to handle the product in the most careful way possible.

Federation Oblectivel

The prime purpose of the Fed- eration of Agriculture is not the improvement and strengthening

improvement. of the the individual farmer and the de- velopment. of the farmers interest

fective organized efforts to solve them.

The desire and interest of all

farmers in these matters will eventually decide the rate of growth and strength of the Fed- eration. It should not be the business of the Federation to toil the farmer what he ought to do but rather popular deniaiid on the farmer's part should dictate the policies and activities of the Federation. - If we are not prepared to do some serious thinking and to take action on the solution of agricul- tural problems we may rest as- sured that no other groitp is likely to do it for us.

Scholarships at Truro

This week we would again call

attention to the scliqlarsiups of S5000 each which are being of- fered by Maritime Co-operative Services Limited to boys wish- ing to attend the farm course at the Nova Scotia Agricultural Col- liege. In addition to the scholarships. a measure of assistance is avail- able under the Vocational School's Assistance Agreement. The farm course commences on October alili and and: March nth. Those who are interested should apply for information to this nffiee-Fed- eration of Agriculture. Box 99. Charlottetown.

When they parted a little while later Betty had recovered her practiced mamier of aftability. She smiled and slipped her arm through Clare's as they walked to the door. But when they stood out-

side on the sidewalk her words belied the pose. ' "Clay isn't your type, any-

way, Clare. He lacks that certalii refinement that the men in your set have-if you know what I mean."

She smiled and turned away waving. blithely before Clare could reply. And Clare stood looking af- ter a moment, thinking. "Yea, I knowlwhat. you mean all right

There didn't seem to much rea- son for going out to the airport again that day. after what clay I-Ianlcy had said about Eddie's working hours being until 5.30, but despite herself Clare headed for there after she left Betty. There was no one else to talk to about what she'd found back of I-'uoger's picture; Eddie would understand the plans: he'd know if they real- ly were the originals of the design

Clay Henley had applied to his silver monoplane. She drove by the place once

and saw I-Ianley standing there on the runway. a few yards from the hangar. exactly as he had been standing when she was there earl- ier. "The Watchman." she thought to herself absurdly as she continu-

ed along the highway. And re- nicmberlng the sight of him standing iheref outlined in his

khalzl shirt and slacks against the white of the concrete runway, she thought of the scene as a picture. "The Watchman" didn't seem like it good title. "The Watch." or may- be "The Death Watch." Yes, that sceniedi even better. It was much more solemn anyway. even if it didn't make much sense.

After 3 few miles she stopped and turned the car around. some- thing secmed to be pulling her. She drove back. and as she got within sight of the airport she heard the droning roar of a mot- or and shielding her eyes against the sun she saw the silver plane -"limhlng like a winged bullet in- to the sky.

"Hello. Clare," he said. tui-niiig to meet her. His voice was flat. dull. His face and hands were dir- ty with grease and he looked tired. l

"Eddie. look!" Clare exclaimed. pulling the onion-akin sheets from her purse. "I found them- the plans you said Roger had drawn. They were in a picture of mine that his mother gave me. lie must.have hidden them there Just before-"

I-fer words dwindled off into sil- ence-because Eddie Franklin was not listening. After his first startl- ed expression of amazement. he had grabbed the papers from her and started thumbing through them wildly. I-Ila fingers left grease marks on them but he didn't seem to notice. And then he found the one he was looking for and he held it. in front of him for a long mom- ent. His eyes was riveted to the drawing, except once when he turned the page sideways to read; a small legend on the margin.l Then he just. stared at the papei' and. as Clare watched-. the color drained completely from his face.

"Whai. Eddie? What is it?" It wasn't her own voice. It was some

kind of automatic sound that came from deep inside her. ex- pressing the question that her

heart was asking.

But Ed-die only shook his head and looked up toward the sky. hearing only faintly now the rhythmlc drum of the distant motor.

"Eddie. tell me! What's the mat- ter? Why do you look like that?"

"It's wrong, Clare." he said. his voice hoarse. "It won't stand the weight-not without the checki valves. There they are. see--'' He held out the page he'd been look- ing at. pointing to a score of symbols placed at regular inter- vals alonz the lines marked: "Hy- draulic Tubes." "

"What-what does that mean?, "What. if it doesn't stand the weight. -what then?" There was a tightening all through her, a sudden coldness as if she'd come into a frigid tem0era.tui'e. She fell herself shiver and her lips were dry as she waited for him to an- swer. It. seemed an eternitv t--'---
