made. The amount of tooth decay was found to be so great that it would be completely impossible to .try to arrange treatment services. An. educational programme was therefore commenced for the pre- vention of tooth decay by brush- ing immediately alfter eating and improving the daily diet.

Effort to bring help to children with speech handicaps has been made by a trained speech correct- lonlst. A survey of the Olu.rlotte- town area and Su-mmerside schools has been made to find children with speech difficulties and rem- edial work is being done with each of these cases. Clinics at. the Charlottetown Health Centre and in Summem-side will also be held so that anyone with a lpeech problem may have an opportunity of receiving assistance.

The staff of the Health Section has remained as last year with the exception of the Chief Hedlth oi. ficer. Dr. B. C. Keeping, who due to. i-ii health is on leave of absence preparatory to retirement after twenty years of service. Dr. 0. H. Curtis is replacing Dr. Keeping as the head of the Health Section

Welfare Branch

in the year 1950 the Welfare Branch through expansion of it's staff has been able to improve and extend welfare service to the

citizens of the Province. At the 'b8il1n'ninl of the year. a large number of Mothers' Allowance

i'Dl1Iicltions had not been investi- gated because of insufficient staff. l-fowever. in May this situation was remedied with the appoint- -ment of two additional investiga- tors. Since that time the back log of applications has been clean- ed up. In addition to this all cases receiving Mother's Allowance. so. cial Msistanee. T.B. Assistance. and Child Welfare have been re- visited and iitelr cases 1'8-Ildasled, Although many of the Welfare cases entail four or five visits per year thip la the first year that it, -has been posalvbla to make at. least one visit to each case. As a result it. has not been possible to do much constructive work with TJIIC magjol-ity of the Welfare problems.

Convontlonl, Meetings and Field Day!

The Experimental Station was host to a ntunlber of important conveniloi-is and meetings and to many prominent visitors in 1950. During the last week of June the 28th National Convention of the Agricult-llral Institutes of Canada convened at Chartottetcwil. and a" garden party was held on the Ex-

perimental station grounds on Tuesday, June 27. This was at- tended by approximately five

hundred people from all provinces ill Canada. Dr. Greaney. President of the Convention. planted a maple tree to commemorate the important event.

The following week a delegation of British Agricultural Scienilats headed by sir William 01:. Dir- ector of the World famous Rothamsled Eioperirnental station. England. visited the Charlottetown Station. Here again the event was marked by the planting of a tree. this time an English Oak which had been grown from an acorn from all English oak planted by Edward Prince of Wales in 1919.

In July the Prince Edward Is- land Women's Institute Conven- tion convened in Charlottetown and one session was held at the Experimental station. As in for- mer years. the Junior Farmers of Prince Edward Island held their annual Field Day at. the Station. this time the headquarters for the Field Day was in Upton farm.

Another important gathering was that of the P. E. I. and N. 8. Ayrshire Breeders. A sale of Ayr- shire calves was held at the time of this meeting.

Mumfbers taking the Junior Fal-mersf Leadership Course visited the Station on January 3. Later in the month the Conference of Fed- eral and Provincial Agricultural workers in Prince Edward Island held a three-day session. in Birch

Court. Members of the Staff of the Charlottetown station addressed

many public meetings throughout. the provlnrc..1uciged at Exhibit.- ions. Rural Brautlflcailoii Com- petitions and assisted other De- Dlrtmenta in many services of public benefit.

Weather Conditions

.Precipltatlolv. hours of sunshine

and mean teln:pei'attll'es during men were all below the 41 year average. For example. the total nrectpitatlon amounted to 36.12

inches as compared with 41.51 inches for the long-term average. Possibly the moat notvble feature of the weather for the year was the long open fall which lllowad the harvesting of tilt .-raps under most favourable conditions.

Forage and Pasture Crop:

Despite the dry weather of early

spring. all farm crops gave a mod- erately lzood yield in 1950. The yield of cats wall phenomenally high. . some seeding: of grass and clov- er. madewhen the land was in I dry and powdery condition. failed to produce a good stand but later eeedings and those on land where large quantities of manure had been applied in the past. gave good results. Contrary to the experience of former years. a seeding of grass and clover. made July 1st. produc- ed an excellent stand. In one field. seeded with barley. grass and clov- er. a plank drag was ccmoared with fl weeder ea 3 means of nov- erimz the hay seed. Up to "the clone of the growing season both have given equaiiv good results.

In general. clover wtntel-ed well though the mow cover wan light. but in a test where five varieties were seeded in now: all were win- ter-killed.
