An all-time high of 97,574 head of market hogs were shipped to inspected packing plants at approximate value of 35,000,000. number the farms for

the number of weanling pigs ship-

pod to other provinces, makes the

annual value of the industry close

"When we consider this figure that swine

and when we know

production rarely has involved our

farmers in financial difficulties" we should agree this industry is not far from being the most important in the Province.

"I do not believe that this Dos- ltion of swine moduction has been

sufficiently appreciated. We have isiven serious attention to the cultural me-thodsland to the dis- eases of potatoes. We have ac- complished much in solving the liroduction and the disease prob- 19m8 in our Poultry. We have gone far in eliminating tuberculosis and contagious abortion in our cattle, but the production and the disease problems of swine are be- coming increasingly serious with no promise of improvement.”

Swine lfealtls

Mr .Clay went on to warn that mysipelua in swine is becoming as serious as pullcrum in poultry and blight in potatoes. "We are meeting symptoms of unthriftlness and in many cases fatalities which seem to defy the best authorities to explain. Again let me emphasize that these conditions are perhaps more common in other Provinces than they are here. I know of one case in Ontario where cne swine grower

I regret is report appearing in The Patriot. for which neither I nor my committee was respon- sible. which might llnd la the im- Ipresslon that we were recom- mending demotion in the case of the latter two officers.

"Every Police Department has plain clothes men. Even some of the highest ranking officers are plain clothes men. on special duty.

"We feel that only the men on active police duly should be in uniform.”

At the request of Coun. John- stone. chairman of the Market Committee. Mr. E. Chandler was -present at the meeting to ex- plain certain recommendations for changes in the re-wiring of the Market Building which is at pre- senrbeing carried out.

it was suggested thattench ten- ant of the Market have his own meter and consequently pay his own light bill. and that socket meters at an extra charge of five dollars each be installed. It was also suggested that a three phase load at present being used in the meat market he kept separate from the balance of the building.

"If those with the capital on Prince Edward Island were as keen on investing in industries here as they are in investing in Alberta oil and Ontario gold. this Province would be well off." stated Premier J. Walter Jones last Thursday during the debate on the Draft Address in the Legislat- ure.

"I do not know why some one does not invest in locker storage here." he stated. He told the House that he had been talking to a young man who operated a locker storage plant in Susse and thstlit was a profitable business.

He was speaking on the cold storage plant here and stated that it could quite easily show a profit. "I believe that if we lost 325.000 a year on it, the Province would still profit by it."

"Through it we can bring in new industries. With regard to smeita he noted that 000.000 pounds had, been stored here last yes: and that these smeita were bringing 17 cents a pound on the New York market at the peak of the prices. "And this industry is only in its infancy," he added.

"The north side of the City was shut off frcm industrial develop- ment by st. Dunstan's University and the Experimental Farm." he stated. "so we had to B0 to the east side where we took over the Kensington rifle range.

"We said one site to a fertilizer company for 315,000 and we now have the biggest fertiliser plant east of Montreal. A site was sold to the Associated shippers for :2,- ooo and another to Bchurman's for 35,000. and we have land yet, he added.

"If those with capital would in- vest in things like that we could make money at home and benefit the whole province."

"The average salary of the lic- ensed rural school teacher here is 31.006 and I think that it exceeds those of the rural teachers in New Brunswick and Quebec." The Premier heatedly referred to a misstatement maids the Hgitiesg
