“The interest and agtivity dis- pigyed in horse-breeding has un- doubtedly been better during the past season than at any time with- in the last 15-year period," Mr. W. R, Shaw. deputy minister of agri- culture and secretary of the Horse Breeders’ Association. told delegates to the annual meeting of the or- ganization yesterday.
“while the Horse Breeders' As-
sociation did not assume an ag- gressive role in improvement poli- cies since its organization last Feb- ruary, nevertheless many of the suggestions advanced at the first meeting have served as a basis for further consideration and improve- ment," Mir. Shaw Said.
Officers Elected
Mr. Keith Boswell of Victoria was
elected president of the association. Mr. W. H. Townsend of Rollo Bay was elected vice president, and Mr. W. R.. Shaw. deputy minister of ag- riculture. was re-elected secretary.
Directors of the association for
1936 were .appointed as follows:
Messrs. Robert Chappell, Willard
Kelly, C. J. Stewart, W. I-I. Towns- end. Mont Annear, Keith Boswell, Myron MacArthur.
Resolutions
A resolution was passed unani-
mously, requesting the provincial government to place an injunction on the Maritime Electric Company Limited to prevent temporarily the sale of the companys Prince Ed- ward Island properties.
The motion asked provincial
authorities for an order which would not allow the Maritime Com- pany to dispose of its properties in Prlncc Edward Island until “a pro- per investigation is ma/de in con- noction with the sale of $200000 worth of valuable bonds to our citi- zcns."
J. G. McLeod of Hampshire, a
dciesate to the meeting moved the resolution. He said the Electric company must nct_ be allowed to roll o\|t to the city of Charlottetown until arrangements had been made with the shareholders.
llc had presented a similar reso-
lution the night before at the meet- ing of the Swine Growers’ Associa- tion but the meeting had not con- sidered it. Tha resolution was sec- cndcd yesterday by Mr.-Mont An- near, M. L. A. Mr. W. J. Seaman, Springfield, spoke in support.. lt was decided by the meennB
that n. horse show be held in Char- lottetown this year. The matter was left to the incoming executive to deal with. Hon. W. I-I. Dennis spoke briefly extending a welcome to the dele- gates. He stated the Government was importing three stallions for this province. He was of the opin- ion it would be a good idea to se- cure a number of pure bred heavy mares, an'd suggested a method as io how this could be arranged for. Others taking part in the general discussion were: Mears. W.' H. Townshend, John `Profltt, W. J. Reid, William Seaman. V¢rn°n Craig, C. E. McKenzie, Dr. J. A. Clark, P. A. Mclsnac, M. L. A., J. G. McLeod and others.
The following was the report of
the secretary, Mr. W. R.. Show.
REPORT 01" SECRETARY
The situation Nsi1fdin8 H°\‘B¢ Breeding in this province is one indicating a very considerable im- provement. The interest and ac- tivity displayed in horse breeding has undoubtedly been the best dur- ing the past season than at any time within the last fifteen-Ye” period. The exhibitions have been Perhaps the best barometer of the former, while observations taken throughout the country have indi- cated adoption of the policy of ls- innd horses for Island farms.
While the Horse Breeders' Asso-
ciation did not assume an aggres- sive role in improvement policies since its organization last Febru- ary, nevertheless many of the SUR- Btctlons advanced at the first meet- ing have been taken under advise- ment and have served as a be-Si! for further consideration ‘and im- provement. No doubt discussions on certain phases of work will be un- dertaken at this meeting. The sug- gmtion is advanced that earnest consideration should always be given to the practicabiiity of all policies advanced for the improvement of the industry. and that aggressive
committees be atgpointed to follow Hntidsuggestions at may be advo- ea . One of the advances made dui-i118 the past year was the or¥lniI>i1ti°¥\ of a Provincial Brinch of the Can; adian Saddle md Light Horse Im- Drovement Society.

. The following is the report of Mr. W. L. Brenton, Dairy Superin- tendent, aubmltted at the annual
meeting of the ‘Association yester- HY: The President, Officers and Mem-
bers, Prlnce Edward Island Dairy- men’a Association,
Gentlemen:
I have‘_ths honour to submit my
report as Dairy ,Superintendent for the Province of Prince Edward Is- land for the year 1935.
In the first months of the -year
the greater part of my time was given to office work, at classes at the Agricultural short Course, at- tending annual meetings of the lo- cal dairy companies, the assisting in two-day Short Courses in,dif- ferent parts of th¢ Province, and general routine work.
During the summer months I at-
tended and took part at the Annu- ai Breed, Association meetings, also at several Illustration Field Days, and assisted in club work meetings -more stress should be placed on this phase of work.
Regular inspection and instnic-
tion work was carried on as in Pit- vious years.
A number of dairy plants are
facing a large expenditure to bring their buildings and equipment up to the standard as set by all man- ufacturers ol high grade dairy products. Early in May and again in November the creamer-y man- agers and butter makers held in- teresting and helpful sessions in the dairy rooms at the Agricultur- al Hall, Charlottetown, more pur- ticular attention being paid to the manufacturing end of thc business. The adoption of compulsory grad- ing and marking of print creamery butter wrappers was again taken up, the majority of those in attend- ance -favorina the plan.
' Quality Maintained
The general quality of both but-
ter and cheese was well maintained: The real trouble comes from less than ten per cent of the makers. yet this is such as to cause a dis- tinct loss to our whole output- The excessive number of crcamerics in proportion to pounds of milk pro- duced is having a. rulnous affect an cream grading, and the accept- ance oi cream a. week or more old. in trying to lower hauling and manufacturing charges, makes it an impossibility to produce an all first grade butter. I am fully convinced some drastic _measures should be taken to close out a considerable number of our creameries, by am- algamation or by direct sale. If the dairy industry is to aww and pros- per, the dairy farmer must receive an increased remuneration for his services. Too much uneconomie and unsound competition. 1°CB»1 d9Si\"°5
have already served well their time_and generation.. have a blast- imz effect on progress.
A general survey by the Presi-
d Isl d
dent of Prince Edwar an - the year. At the same time a num- ber of good -horses have been sold to Mainland purchasers. There are also a number of fine young Island bred stalllons and mares developing into the service age.
The demand for good sires is ac-
ute, und the supply is not adequate. one of the chief obstacles in the way of a wider distribution of first class sires is not the cost. but rather the unfair competition that arises from the use of the inferior stal- lion. Horses are allowed free priv- ileges in this province in so for as quality is concerned. and as it result stallions are found travelling the roads which are riot worth at the most $75.00 if gelded. Lack of restrictions has undoubtedly wierd- sg development of the horse indus- try, Statistical information recent- l/y secured shows B t0t8l 0! °V¢l' zoo stalllons in this province of serviceable age. Approximately 120 are non registered horses. Of the remainder only 15 have passed the pi-erniurn inspection. Need any fur- ther comment bc made with refer- ence to this situation?
Regarding the Federal-Provincial
Premium Bonus Policy. I am firmly convinced the POUCY 15 an °"°°u°m one if properly protected. I am recommending to the Minister this your that me policy be widened cut to include a "B" classification. thus bringing it in confonnity with the regulations in other P¥‘°V|l1¢'il. Mid ,,150 making provision for the ln- cluslon of- many 8005 St°m°n5 th” sro not quite good enough for-_an "Av gm/_~ii_ng, I would respectfully direct your attention to this sul- gestlon. _
Your Association has many PN'
blems to deal with at this meeting. and I would urge that every phase of me wnrk, through the neld of bmding, inspection, legislation. vl- hibiiion. horse shows and other de- partments. be enoroushly iuycsiisai- ed in order that the horse industry in this province may bc bf°“l’“° W its former strength and stability. The markets for horses during tlic
next few years should be brisk. In me United states inf-'rc hu been 5 reduction in horses between 1924- 1934 of 5,423,000, while in the some

The tendency is again in favor of horse power ev- en in the great centres ci’ Dvlmll- tion. There hu been a revival of a love of the horse.

AT ROTARY--More than 50

President Fisher heartily welcomed the visitors to the luncheon. The speaker of the day was Post Rotary President J. Wilfred Bouiter, who dealt with a. number of the farmers' problems and stressed the great advantages of co-operation and organization. I-lon. W. H. Dennis also spoke briefly. Mr. Charles Earle, the popular vocalist, entertained the audience with a. number of popular songs, being honored with a double encore. In the last number he in- troduced several local hits, which were loudly applauded.
and only found cause for complaint in one creamery. The investigation proved the creamery manager in no way guilty of any carelessness on his part of the work and correc- tions wer., made. I can assure the producer the men in charge of making the babcock test for fat are reliable and capable, and the work is honourably carried out.
Dairy Tests '
The adorption of dairy cream
t/_-sting and twice a month pay- ments has met with the hearty ap- proval of the cream producer and, wherever possible, this procedure will bg accepted as the most up- to-date and satisfactory method in the creamery business. The patrons find the daily tests to vary to a. considerable extent and have the opportunity of immediately finding the cause for such variations.
This daily testing is a. problem.
The local board of creamery man- agement must decide for themselves and to what extent such changes will be made will depend largely on local conditions. Where the num- ber of einblvycel Ofililcd have not
