night a break occurred at 'the store of Smallms.n's Limited, on- try being gained .by breaking a window at the rear of the build- ing. The break was discovered by members of the staff when they reported for work, yesterday morning.

Apparently the intruder, after breaking the glass, reached in and released the lock on the window which .enabled the sash to be raised. Outside, in the alleyway. were found several empty show boxes and although a definite check of the. stock was difficult, four or five pairs of shoes are definitely missing.

Police are investigating the robbery but up to last night the identity of the thief or thieves

It is interesting to note that the estimate of sows due to farrowifrom the June to Novem- ber period is 8,200. and compared with the same period in 1951. This is a decrease of 2592. and is a re- flection of the drop in market values of hogs. The output of chick hatcheries is down from the previous year in the relation of 738,000 to 813.000

Ayrshire breeders were discussed. Among.theni was the Ayrshire Bull Bonus Policy which has been in ef- 'fect for dome. time.

The Golf Club work under the direction of the Provincla.l'1'ield- men has been progressing very fav- ourably but the directors felt the r Ayrshire clubs were not receiving all the support they deserved from the breeders or from the Associa- tlon. It was decided steps should be taken to see that good quality pure- bred calves are available for this work.

The majority of Island Ayrshir-es may soon be dehorned for it was unanimously agreed by those pres- ent that the questior. of dehornlng should be considered seriously. Three directors told the meeting that they are already dehornlng their calves and several others in- -dioated they were going to start. Thcs men represent some of the best known Ayrshire herds on the Island. It was thought dehomlrig would not adversely affect pure- bred sales and should make the a Ayrshire even more popular as a commercial cow.

. Markets

The bright spot in the whole agricultural picture centers on potatoes. Prices were very high during the spring of 1952, but the great bulk of potatoes was dis- posed of by producers before the high prices took effect. A rather scare production picture in Can- ada and the United States this fall leaves ,.the impression of a strong potato market during the coming season. Prevailing prices would indicate that the demand will be remunerative to growers. In practically every other field field of agriculture, however. prices have dropped. and in some cases. to discouraging levels. The outbreak of foot' and mouth dis- ease in Western Canada which brought about the closing of the American market to Canadian livestock struck a severe blow at the livestock economy of the country. While floor prices were put on under some classifications of beef these prices had only It slight effect in holding up market levels in the Maritimes. As a matter of fact, at the pre- sent moment. taking ,cstt1e prices right across the board, the mar- ket level is a little better than half of that prevailing during the previous year. A recent drop in the floor price and in markets in the United States has tended to further depress the local situation. A promise of a. higher floor price next spring is designed to in- fluence the carrying over of un- finished cattle until that time. it

however, during the past few years. by American and other buyers, a lessening in export for two or three years may-not be a bad condition in that it will help dairy producers to again build up herds to a normal level.

youth and adult farmer extension work have been carried out effi- ciently by the members of the field staff. More than ordinary at- ierition has been given this year to farm contracts. and to discus- sions with individual farmers on personal and community problems. Upwards of one hundred and twenty-five Junior Clubs were or- ganized and carried to a success- ful conclusion during the season. These included Calf.lPoultry, Gar- den, Grain, Sewing and Food Clubs. A very successful two-day Jun- ior Youth Fair completed the sea- son's work, and at this time teams were selected to represent the Province at the Maritime and Roy- al -Winter Fairs. The Exhibitions were well patronized, and might be termed in most cases "success- ful agricultural features”. The Plowing Matches conducted at Dundaa and Pownal were largely attended. These events demon- strated a vigorous and expansive tendency that canot.he held back. They are features that are near to the grass roots programme. and areiof very great value in the promotion of agricultural thought and action.

Farm Labour

The problem of farm labour continues to be acute, and the at- tractions of industrial wage lev- els are removing. to an unfortun- ate and serious degree. young men

farming. and both combined are developing the establishment of larger farms. It is not too much to prohpesy that within the next few years the size of farms will increase to, 300 or 400 acre hold- ing: and these larger -areas would seem justified in the light of in- creasing costs of mechanization. The trend in respect to form holdings between the decennial census of 1941-51 shows almost 2,000 farms less at the latter date. If this trend continues the larger farm area, as indicated. will soon be a reality.
