RAINFALL

in April precipitation (rain and snout amounted to 4.45 inches just Slightly less than the same ltmnlh in 1956 and one and a half iill'IlCS more than the 46 year av- cruge. However. rainfall In May and June is what counts so far asgrowth in concerned and I957 stands in a very Poor light com- pared with last year and compar- ed with both last year and the long term average and this is partic- ularly true of June. The figures are as follows for I957. 1956 and the long term average: May 2.71 1.76 2.97, June 1.19 2.91 2.91.

Thus it will be seen that rain- fail in June this year is so far almost two inches below average and that for May and June it is almost 3 inches below last year.

Temperature has only been slight- ly cooler than the average. Farm are who are wondering what has happened the hay crop have, at least, a partial explanation in the rainfall figures for May and June. Generally to promote satisfacto y growth three inches of rain per mont.h is needed in this province during the growing season. HAY DIFFICULTIES

Last week this eoturnn suggest- ed that pmspects for a hay crop were quite Indifferent. in anything this hituation is worse at the pres- ent time. while there are some real 13' lood fields and while some ar- eas of the province are better than others. nevertheless. the Prospects appear to be for less than half a normal crop. With generally increased cattle hold- his this can be quite a serious matter and farmers will be giving thought to taking action neces- sary for their own protection.

Usually at this time of the year there is excess pasture. some of which can be saved for a later date and improved by the applica- tion of manure. If pasture can be prolonged the necessity of sup- plementary feeding In the fall and can be cut down. in addition. chemical fertilizer can be used if applied before or during rain to promote pasture. It is not too late to plant extra corn. kale or root to piece oat other fodder dur- ing the fall end winter. All in all the threatened shon-

At the present time the poultry industry would appear to be re- celving considerable attention both provlncially and nationally. The Canadian Federation of A- griculture is planning for July is in Ottawa a meeting of its National Egg and Poultry Committee. This committee expects to have the op- portunity of making, to the govern- ment. representations on and: mat- ters as price support operation for eggs. on the proposed price support for heavy fowl and on price support for the turkey in- dustry which appears to be fac- ing some marketing difficulties. In this province the Atlantic pro- vinces Economic Council. is pres-

pected that this report will be com- pleted within a month. Further the egg station operators met yes- terday wltht he Minister of Agric- ulture and other officials interest- ed in poultry matters.

Here is a field in which the rural economist and rural socologist can render a val- uable service in analyzing the forc- es which have produced the dif- ference and in recommending the corrective eteps which can be taken.

F.I.L.A.

The Farm Improvement Loans Act was firrst put into effect in 1945 and no doubt for the first few years did a modest business. slight- ly over three million the first year. nine million the second and eight- een the third, however in l952,lt reached a total of 98 million dol- lars. Since that time there has generally been a decline in lead- ings to levels in the 60 millions. During the first ten years of oper- ation there were made in this pro- vince over 8,000 loans amounting to in total over seven million dol-

lars for an average amount of

S910.00. Over the years Saskatche- wan and Alberta have been the largest users having borrowed to- gether 60 per cent of the total iendings for Canada.
