A Fieldman, to be employed by the Provincial Gov- ernment. was recommended [or the promotion of horticultural work. The need for general trained personnel such as veterinarians was also stressed.

In addition to the committees already established. a transporta- tion committee, under tha chair- manshlp of Past President Walter R. Shaw who may name the mem- bers, will consider the Island's cur- rent transportation problems. Newly elected members of the executive are Messrs. S. G. Peppin, representing Science Service; F. M. Nash, Production and Marketing; Heath Saunders, Cattle and Swine; and Chester E. Shaw. _Marketlng. Committees were re-elected en bloc. with power to add to their numbers.

Marketing Recommendations

port toward aving the Dominion Government pass regulated market- ing legislation; that the Provin- cial Government adopt a loan pol- icy to co-operatives; that the Pro- vincial Government lend its full support to having all coarse grains from Western Canada marketed through the Canadian Wheat Board; that dealers and truckers should be licenced; and that de- finite action be tlken towards hav- ing a complete rail grade policy in regard to lamb marketing, enfor- ced in the Province.

1t was also urged that immediate study be given to the possibility of

that

handle egg- shocks and similar essential dairy supplies; that temperature and ilU- midlty control for cheese storage be improved in the government storage and that consideration be given to the marketing of cheese from the Province next year.

Suggests Stock Sale Yards

“ecommendations of the live stock committee, H. W. Clay. chair- man, included the study as to the advisability of establishing live stock sale yards in Charlottetown to assemble the stock for competi- tive buying; a subsidized veterin- ary servlce; that Provincial offi- cials salaries be placed on the same level with those of Dominion offi- cials performing the same work. together with a satisfactory range scale; that consideration be given to the advisability of organizing an annual Winter Fat Stock Show and Sale in Charlottetown; and that n Central Selling Agency for all farm products be instituted at the ear- liest possible t.

The committee also recommend- ed that a conference of Maritime packers, with officials of the Do- minion and Provincial Departments be called at once to find if such packers are agreeable to make lamb grading 100% effective lI1 this Province during 1949 and that the present financial assistance given to this policy be discontinued until such time that this policy becomes wholly effective; that agricultural societies or institutes be organized for the purpose of carrying out all matters pertaining to local and district agricultural activities; and that the possibility of farmers and farm organizations purchasing Rrain in car-load lots be investi- Bflted. and grades of grains marked on feed bags and all feeds subject to check analysis. _

P010110 I ' ‘ation

The final recommendations by "i9 Potato committee, chairman Mr. S. G. P9911111. included legis- lation to amend Bill No. 59, which requires all table stock potato BYOWBIs in plant certified seed as a measure of controlling bu. terial ring rot. As no ring rot has been found in 194.8 and little in 1947 it is s mmended that certified seed be planted and in. spected every five years and more often if necessary: hhat truckers and loaders be licensed; that still sreater emphasis be placed on Island potato advertising in world markets; that a central potato marketing board be set up: and that all potatoes be shipped in new. heavy jute bags marked V0150“!!! in large print, prefer- ably Prince Edward Island Po- tatoes.

"Believing that increased effi- ciency is the keynote of success" the poultry committee. F. M. Nash. fill-Bimini. offered the following recommendations: that this year's Production program be carried on at a volume somewhere between 1947 and 1940, when 050.000 1nd 590.000 chicks respectively welc sold; that the three boys‘ and girlfipoultry clubs at present 0p- erating be increased to six; that fail and winter productim be stressed; that measures be ts- ken to have manufacturers give producers better information in regard to the quality of the grains and the protein in rations; that the 6040-100 bird flocks be in- creased to a minimum of 200 lay- ers, provided adequate facilities are available; satisfactory and pro- perly equipped housing units: that economy of production ex- periments with breeds and cross- breeds be undertaken at the Bx- perimental Farm. and that the ex- periments in trace and minor ele- ments in rations be continued.

The committee also s ommend- ed that a close study be rnsde of

Sells and Crops

The soils and crops committee. D. C. Schurman, chairman. recom- mended preservation of grasslands to curb erosion, strip farming methods on inclines. heavy sod on steep slopes through use of man- ure and fertilizers, terracing and diversion ditches where required, and long term rotations where each field remains under grass for sev- eral years. A Hummer Ditcher will facilitate soil conservation projects in 1949. "It is recommended that the Provincial Department of Pub- lic Works undertake the grassing of clay banks along the

and beautify the countryside." Recommending that

ed its use with manure and com-

3-year rotation. An extra two to three acres of grain per farm is re- commended. with treatments for smut and root rots imperative. An increase in the acreage of mixed Basins and corn is further advocat- e . Using potatoes in a balanced ro- tation. with a Provincial ceiling of not over 40.000 acres was advocat- ed. Following a Cobbler harvest, a clover crop of fail rye "might lend itself as a means of conserving soil fertility and help prevent soil erosion." e
