Ms. MacDonald went on to show that the farm income is down 12 per cent from 1953 and 15 per cent from 1952. He felt that one of the most pressing needs of the farming population was markets. "we have the highest quality pro- ducts and it is pitiable -to,thlnk that we have so much trouble in disposing of them."

Another pressing problem noted by the membe from Cardigan. was one of credit and capital to assist agriculture. "The Govern- ment says that mortgage money is available to farmers but that has not been the experience of

lFarm Problems Discussed .By Mr. Thomas R. Cullen

That the Government urge Ot- tawa to establish a floor price on eggs and have it apply at the producer's level was suggest- ed by Mr. T. R. Cullen Liberal. Second Kings. when he spoke on the Draft Address in the Legis- lature yesterday.

Mr. Cullen said that egg prices are supported by a floor price at ship board and pointed out that if this floor price were paid the producer it would give a fair return for feed and labor in- volved but the costs of grading. crating; freight and handling from are to Montreal are taken. out of the we and the producer takes what is left. . l "A few weeks a 0''. said Mr.' Cullen "the price ropped to 28c

30c. This is absolutely wrong; the floor price should apply to the producer. even though it had to be a few cents lower than Sac”. He went on to show that the floor price does apply to the roducer of butter and added. " e are on an oven foot- ing wlth the dairymen in Can- tral Canada.

WEED CONTROL

The Member from second Kings commended the Department of iculture for its weed control no cy but emphasised the im- portance of the eradication of ragwort which is prevalent in certain parts of his district. He said that ragwort was poisonous to cattle and if allowed to pro- aegate freely could result in un- id loss to farmers. "The Department of Public Works is doing splendid work and we have a good mileage of roads widened and sub-graded in our district last year". continued Mr. Cullen, "It is getting to the point where we can see that in a few years all roads will be completely aubgraded and widen- ed." He said that he was dis- appointed that more work was

He felt that the Government should set up a loan bureau where farmers could obtain long term loans at a low rate of in- terest. In this connection he pointed out that in the Province of Quebec. where such a Board is in operation (The Farm Credit Bureau). &'t87.000.000 was loaned in 1952 and 18.000 young men were permanently established on farms. "Our young people are not staying on the farms( and anyone who travels throllgh this country can see this only too well," continued Mr. MacDonald. "We will continue to lose our

Mr. MacDonald expressed agree- ment with the Government's po- licy of appointing two horticul- turists and said that the process- ing of our products on the Island would be a great boon to agri- culture.

farmers to learn of their prob- lems. "I asked the Minister whe- ther thcre would be an office opened in Kinsg County. but he didn't say yes and he didnt say no." Mr. MacDonald added. "I hope that he will see fit to do this in the near future."

The excellent work being done by the St. George calf club was noted by Mr. MacDonald who said, "the work done by this club is exceptional and worthy of emu- lation. it reflects great credit on the agricultural representative, Mr. Deacon. If more of this work 5' carried out we will have a A ter satisfied youth."

Mr. MacDonald praised the work of the directors of the Dundee Plowing Match under the leader- ship of Mr. Leslie Hunter. "From a small beginning they have grown to be one of the best shows in the Province attracting people from one end of the Island to the other and many from the Mainland." Mr. MacDonald add- od. "I understand that competi- tors will be coming from the Mainland this year."

Speaking of the potato situation. Mr. MacDonald said. "It presents a very confused picture; I hope. now that the Federation of Agri- culture has asked for a clear out statement on Government policy

John A. MacDonald: "I read it in s Monclon newspaper."

Hon. Earle MacDonald: "we are doing the same and I can guarantee you that not one che- que in Nova Scotia or New Brunswick has been mailed yet."

Mr. MacDonald said he was 100 per cent behind Dr. MacMillan in his plea for hospital assistance. "We should be doing more in this Province than we have been doing. we are far below the grant being given in other Provinces." he said. "The need is urgent."

I notice that all the Govern- ment speakers seem to stress the school building program being carried out by the Department of Education but a more important phase of the Department's work is the training of teachers." He said that there is a lack of good teachers and wondered whether the teacher training program could he stepped up.
