y (W. R. Bhlw)

When the’ establishment of a Disease Free Area, Wﬂ§_ first brought ‘to the attention of the far- mers of this ‘Province, it was quite

would result, as a consequence of keener demand for our butter and cheese, and for grade dairy cattle. While it is too early yet ‘to predict the influence of this work on the price of dairy products. we are be- ginning to realize ‘the splendid op- portunities offered to the producer of grade cattle of certain type and standard of quality. . , Within the past ten days-orders for a. number of carlohds 0f cattle have been received at_ ‘the Depart- ment of Agriculture. Enquiries for many more have been received by the Department and by private breeders throughout the Province. These enquiries have come from districts extending from Sydney C. B. to London, Ontario. and sections in ‘the Unite-d States. This wide- spread interest in our livestock is undoufbtedly ‘the direct result of the application of the tuberculin test to our cattle. The- same situation developed in the Huntington, How- ick, Chaiteaguay district in Quebec,

after the application of the ‘Re- stricted Area Policy to that dis- trlct. [Not only cariots, but train

loads of grades were shipped out of that area. after the test had been applied ,a‘t prices of a most remunerative nature. _

As far as Disease free cattle are concerned, we are in a. much more favorable position in this Province, with our low parentage of reac- tors. than is the case in any other similarly ‘tested area. This posi- tion can be maintained indefinitely. due to ourgeoIraphfoal-nsnd other conditions. A widespread recogni- tion of the desirability of this Pro- v-luco as a. source of disease free stock, will increase and stabilize a. demand for our cattle for many years to come. Aside from the large supplies needed for the milk trade near urban centers, there will ‘be an ever iucreaeing general demand from parties who appre- ciate the value of tested cattle, and from areas in lboth Canada. and the United States where definite polic- ies of tuberculosis eradication are ibeing applied. In these areas. and many are under consideration, large numbers of cattle will he required to replenish the depletion in infec- ted herds.

Unfortunately our‘ farmers are not in a position to meet ‘the de- mend that is now developing for this class of livestock. In this res- pect we ro away behind our Quo- bec frion s, who have ‘made their district famous as a district, which has elevated the standard of its dairy stock through judicious s9!- tems of community breeding. The fulfilment of a wise policy is bolus justified and rewarded today tothe full, through the b15111? remunera- tivo prices received for cattle. whichcarry the necessary qualifica- tions to fill the purchasers T601111’ meats.

it would naturally lbs 0x11611165 that Prince Edward Island. with its achievements in 0111191‘ 11119! °1 production, with definite organisa-

lions both Federal and ‘Provincial

tion for many years, with a com- pact community easily worked and covered with dairying concerns as an incentive to highe standards. would lbs in a very favorable pus‘- tion as far as a supply of choice dairy cattle are concerned. Our cat- tle however arc not up to standard. It is truc- that we have some com- munitics in which dairy cattle show evidences of wisely directed com- munity spirit in breeding, but gen- eraliy speaking the type and qual- ity of our dairy stock is away be- low what is to be expected under conditions as outlined above. There novc-i- was an effect without a cause. What is the trouble‘!

Aside from the questions of in- adequate feeding and handling practises there seems ‘to be two main causes for the lack of ‘type and quality in our dairy cattle. 1st. Tho quality of the ‘bull. 2nd. The crossing and mixing of breeds.

Tho scrub hull finds in this Pro- vlnco vc-ry favorable conditions for thc perpetuation and spread of whatever influeuc may be con- tained in his conﬁomeraie make- up. and as the bull is one-half the herd, the chances for the imprcss- ion of puroly scrub qualities on the cattle of the ‘Province wcunl seem to he ve-ry great. In many cases however ‘the individual scrub is only one eighth or one tenth of the herd, inasmuch an statistics show us that some herds contain as many as four and five scrub bulls. In some districts little or no effort is made to control thc castration of males, and sole dependence is placed on the "simon pure" scrub for the perpetuation of the species. Surely it is not remarks/bis ifhat under such conditions cattle of typo and quality are uuobtainable.

FORT WILLIAM, Ont., Dec. 29 -—Since the close of navigation the movement of grain from the West to the Lake terminals has begun to close up. Partly due to the cold weather in the West lowering the quantity that is being (ieliversd to. country elevators and partly to the. desire on the part of the railways’ to avoid congestion iu the yards

‘at the head of the lakes. A Already one elevator here has fbonigwoﬂh has caused some m.

Tile belief that there will be steady ail-rail movement is based on the fact that Europe and the Unitedlfingdoui are still fbuying freely and the 15,000,000 bushels now in store at Eastern ports only represents two weeks‘ require- ments.
