Federation feeling that there was need for revamping the present “bull placement policy". The Do- minion Government had the pol- icy, he said.

In regard to artificial insemin- stlon unit, he stated that such a unit would cost one quarter of s million dollars. He did not think it was succeed‘ so wel in other provinces, and in those provinces. he added, the people pay for par‘! of the services. Answering a de- mend for consideration of a fish- meal plant project, he said that negotiations were already under- way for one.

"It is the function of the Gov- ernment to deal with all recom- mends‘lun. in the wisest manner possible", stated Hon. Dr. W. _-T. 1’- Macbfillsn, who was not present when the brief was read. He indi- cated that he was in favor of re- stricting margarine from enterlnz this province in which the condi- tion of agriculture was a long way from being satisfactory.

"1 am not satisfied with the handlink and management of the potato industry." he stated. "I would limit the acreage and cut out the speculators. We need mix- ed farming here which I! much better than putting all our eggs in a gambling basket.

"My attitude is that whatever the Government ploposes to do to aid agriculture the OPPOIWOH W1“ help. It is the duty of the Gov- ernment and the Iaellllllufe '0 nurture and develop the industry.’

Other Speakers

Mr. Louis O'Connor. lmiident 0' the Federation, in remarks apart from the brief warned the L931!- lature about the danger of allow- ing margarine to enter the P|'°V' ince.

Village Service Bill In legislalure

Provision for enabling villages with populations in excess of 100 persons to establish local admin- istration under elected commis- sioners is made in a bill which passed second reading in the Leg- islature yesterday.

Entitled “The Village Service Act", and introduced by Hon. Eugene Cullen, Minister of Indus- try and Resources. the bill pro- vides that when the inhabitants of any village in the Province de- sire to avail themselves of the legislation, they may present a requisition signed by at least twenty-five ratepayers to the County Sheriff, requesting him to hold a. poll on the subject.

Only such residents as are pos- sessed of real or personal property of the value of $350 or upwards within the boundaries of the vil- lage may vote. If a majority of the votes polled are in favor of the application. the Lieutenant- Governor-in-Council may by pro- clamation bring the Act into ef- fect, defining the boundaries of the village to which it applies and ap- pointing thtee commissioners who shall hold office until connois- sioners are elected at the first an- nual mee-ting thereafter. .

The commissioners are vested with the ordinary powers of a town council, their bylaws. ordin- ances, etc., when approved by the Minister. having the force and ef- fect of law. ‘

Attica Wins Vote of confidence

LONDON. March .14 -—(Ol’) ‘- Labor won its third (straight vote of confidence within a week in the House of Commons tonight. After the Househad received I promise from Sir Stafford Oripps, chancellor of the Exchequer, that departmental economies will be rigidly enforced frcm now on, it supported the Government soc to 289 in a division forced by Win- ston Churchill‘: conservative Party on a motion charging the Government with overspending.

The nine Liberal members ab- stained from the vote. The Gov- ernment plfibflhly would have re- signed if it had lost.

I..wbor‘s majority was below the 25 recorded yesterday in defeating ,a ‘motion critical of its housing policy. but above the 14-vote edge it had five days ago. when the

our farmers believe that there is definite need ‘for the revaznping of Present “Bull placement polic- ies. The bonus policy for Bears has been a great factor in ihcreas.

"W9 5‘ -'.. recommend that a conference be held between our leading livestock farmers and of- flclfl-ls at the earliest possible moment to discuss this matter. We believe a bonus policy might create more interest and be of sreater value to the majority of our grade breeders. We might hi.-so suggest that every effort be moxie to have the Dominion Production Service revamp their present Bull Looming policy on the Island to

Dominion authorities with respect. to potato , storage warehouses. Farmers in many areas are anxious to take advantage of the amlstance offered by the Dominion Govern- ment in this respect. The ware- houses. generally speaking. in spite of any contrary representations that may have been made, on working successfully and are pro- viding a very valuable service to our potato gmwers who have them. Prod-ucers in many areas are anxious to establish such storages which they can market a uniform pack in an orderly way and store small quantities at rail siding: during the fine weather and good roads. We ask for renew- ed efforts to reach an agreement with t-he Dominion authorities at the earliest possible moment so that some measure of assistance will be available. «We strongly urge that such warehouses con- tinue to be established on a co- operative basis where they will be uncier supervision and remain in the control of the farmproducers."

Regret was expressed that the artificial imemlnation unit was disbanded. as the project is meet- ing with a great deal of success in other provinces. The department was commended for the work dome in the provincial laboratory with respect to blood testing of poultry and checking of diseases satis-

faction was also expressed with the progress being made with swine.

The banning of margarine from the province and a new livestock program to promote the breeding of good grade dairy cattle was urged. Appreciation was expressed for the help in bonusing frclg-ht on limestone, and approval of a probable grain seed survey to be undertaken during the coming summer was expressed. ‘

The services of a qualified field crop expert in theprovince toas- sist the farmers and promote the production, c'.ea.ning and grading of aigh quality seed grains was

urg .

"We regret very much that you have not seen fit to procure quali- fied C<‘Jl.lIltj' Agricultural repre- sentatives for Prince and Kings Counties. Without going into the details which are apparent to‘_all, we urge you to appoint qualified full time Agricultural Representat- ives for Prince and Kings this spring, so that the farmers in those counties will have ready ac- cess to mfarrnation and help with various technical problems."

The brief noted that the Govern- ment has seen fit to investigate the land drainage problem and suggested that the forestry prob- lem should be g.'.en very careful attention stressing the need of the services of two or three forcsters during the next two or three years.

Appreciate Action

Appreciation of the Govern- ment's efforts towards solving the transportation problem was ex- pressed, but more alertness on the part of railway officials in the Msrltlmes to the need of an ml- vance supply of reefer cars for the potato movement was asked.

Appreciation of the facilities provided for the vocational train- ing was also expressed and the co- operation of the Federation to- wards maklng contacts with mo rural youth and explaining the training was promised. The brief recommended that a. survey‘ re- specting the feasibility of a. fish- meal plant be made.

The Federation indicated, that rural telephone companies opera‘.- ing as utilities were providing poor service due to their run down structural and mechanical condi- tion. They strongly urged that the Public Utilities Board be instructed to institute a policy of inspection and supervision over those rural lines so that those companies will be required to restore and main- tain their corporation, lines and phones in s , standard of

efficiency.

The brief gave an illustration of the trend of production costs and the comparative returns to farm- ers on three main food items over rhfive year period. It showed that
