Vacancies On Bench Left By Lapointe As Economy Measure

OTTAWA. Feb. 27 -—(CP) Canadians are doing less battling Ibefore the courts while the Empire battles for its life in war, accord- mtz to information given the House of Commons tonight, by Jugflcg Mlcnipter Lapointe. 0. A. J. Brooks (Can, asked when Mr. LBFOHIIE inalitigiftld to fill a vacancy on he New Bruns- wick bench and suggested the judges there were over worked.

Mr. Lapoinie said he was effect- ing a little economy by leaving the lpost vacant and added there was another vacancy in Manitoba.

"I have investigated. however. and I am informed the work of the courts i.- riot suffering st. s.U, said Mr. Lapolnte. “There has been a very great decrease in litigation in all provinces. Only isst week, for the first time since confederation there were no cases from my owri Province (Quebec). on the docket _of the Supreme Court of Canada."

Earlier Mr. Iapoints ssld the judicial committee of the Privy council was still functioning in |London but. few litigants were go. ilmt from Canada. He believed a ‘number of cases have been post- noned until sfter the war. He said it was unlikely Chief Justice Bli- Lyman Duff. a. member of the committee. would go to London g0 sit. on appeals this year.

Conservative House Leader Ian. son said New Bnmswick court were top-heavy. There were too many anneal fudge: sand not cilia avings cou well be affected there.

Some Phases 0i Swine Industry

Floldmslfs Report

‘rho following rt was sub- mitted by Mr. . Irvine senior fieldman, at. Thursday's annual meeting of the P E. I. Swine Breed- eis Association:

It is not mv lntension to dwell at any great. len th this evening on our swine indus ry. Principal da- cusslon should come from our 85- semibled swine breeders and hog producers. With your permission, however, I should like to refer brief- ly to one or two phases of activity within the industry during the past Year vouch may be of some inter- est to you.

The past. year. as we are all aware. has witnessed a distinct and contin- ued increase in h production and marketings, reflec g the moqe ex- tensive fall breeding of sows 1889 and again some degree during the late winter or early spring months of 1940. some boar owners and caretakers advise that a consfdersbly smaller- number of sows have been bred this past fall and early winter months.

e to economic conditions gen- erslly. over the git-evince this past fall and winter c distribution or glaclng of registered boars and sows

as not been particularly brisk or easy. It. has been felt that many boar-owners who normally would have purchased young boars re- trained from buying, and retained the’! mstuied boars for another year. In addition, an occasional young undeveloped boar- may have hsfpn sold prlvatelv by a. breeder. witch is not always in the best in- terests of bacon hog production as will as supplying a otential market f0. a. properly deveoped boar later in the season. The following breed- ing stock was placed through De- partmental channels frcm February 27th 1940 until the same date this year.

Young boars under breeding age were purchased to fill orders ieceiv- ed from outside the province. An in- tiezesting order was received dur- ing the late Fall from a. resident of Devee, Mass... for six registered boars. eight. weeks of age at ten dollars each, F. O. B shippng point.

Sow Unit Policy

Under time Sow Unit Pol‘cy as jointly conducted by the Provincial and Domtn.on Departments of Agriculture thiee sow clubs were organized during the past summer at Sturgeon, Fol; Augustus and in the Selkirk-St. Charles Districts-

iclubs have bccn organized in

This particular policy aims at est- aclishing carefully selected young sows of good bacon type and w in a. good lmeeduig background in dis- tricts where it is felt that there is o. need for such. The sows aie poi‘- chased outright, bv the club mem- bers. Prize materials comprising -ba.vley seed, white fishmeat or wean- ing mixtu.e are given in lieu of cash to the contestants by the Pro- vncial Department of Agrlcultuie, which has had a directly bene- ficial influence on lice raising in the Sow Club areas. Since the tn- trcductlon of this Policy. uiiie . it- province. I bcl’cvc that considera- t/on should be given bv the Depart- ments to the extending of this pol 'cv into additional districts whee i1- would be felt bv rebzesentetivcs of both Departments that. a. need for such works exsts.

The first Yorkshire Field Day sponsored by this Association was. I believe satisfacwrlv received. The kind co-operation of the Charlctte- town Experimental Station staff. Quigley of the firm or Davis 8r. Fmser, as well as the active Dart taken by Mr. J .W. Graham. Mone- ton and Mr. J. G. Lefebvrc_ Ot- tawa. all aided materially in making the field dary more instructive and lnteres lng.

vowing our swine tndust from the standpoint of producion. I want to again emphasize the im- poitflllfte of our hog produce-rs pay- ing the closest attention to keepmu brood sows of smooth, lengthy, Well balanced bacon type and seeing to its a these-sows aremated to boars strong in the qualities lust men- tioned. Too many of our market hogs are too heaivy in the shoul- der, lacking in balance and smooth. ners. While it is agreed that feeding can have t considerable influence on t. an length in that a grow- ing of cundamentally good type can s spoiled, whereas one of poor type cannot. be materially improved upon by any certain feeding prac- tice. the fact remains that a stron! contributing factor to heavv shoul-

ders, round rib lack of balance and smoothness rests with our founda- tion breeding stock, both pure-bred and grade.

Pald Ines Attention

Briefly, first 0f all with references toregtstered brcedingstocflfbe- lieve it is s fact. that since the Swim», Show and Sale wfl-S 11150011- tlriuod, and particular] dnce there was no central elmiblton this ‘pa-Si- August scme of our pure red swine bi-eodezs paid less attention to the breedin background and de-

sows. The incentive was not present to put. forth the best. effort in pro- dicing boars of the mcst desirable bacon type. This has reflected in the quality of our rgistered heed- ing stock distributed. In the ‘nter- ests of intensifying improvement in the quality of boars produced. should it be found difficult to hold some form of swine exhibition. it i; felt that the Directors of this Associa- tion should give consideration to s modified fotm of Yorkshire Field Day. as wall as the desirability of re- establishing the Swine Show and Sale on a proper basis.

In further consideration of the production of hogs of good bacon type, we find that there is an in- creasing number of non bacon t pe boars kept in this province to- ay, -English Blacks. Durocs. etc. The use of s. distfnctly non-bacon type boar in s. community cannot. be in the interests of the production of Grade "A" carcasses or desirable Wilishire Sides, nor can it, be in the best financial interests of the hcg producers. It has been estim- ated with respect to one communltv . . where a. boar of poor type is kept that each time a car-load of hcg< is , shipped out. of this district, the Drive l of a good Yorkshire boar is lost. due lump notdreceived sswellas"
