20 Exhibitors At ‘Royal

Honored By Rotary Club

“Tt is quite evident by the re- sults achieved at the Royal Win- ter Fair that the farmers of thia province are quite capable of up- holding their place im any line-of égsriculiurel production", Stew- ért Wright, deputy minister of egriculture said in addressing the Rotary Club at the weekly lunchesn meeting yesterday ~ at the Charlottetown. :

Twenty rural res dents, who among many others have brought

_ distinction to the province through

their exhibits, were guests of Rotary by arrangement with the cural-urban eommittee as a com- munily service activity, designed to broaden and strengthen the social and business ties between city and country.

In the course of his address, Mr, ‘Wright- referred to the Ayr- sh're exhibits from six breeders,

“including A. MacRae end Sons,

Keith Boswell and Sons, Andrew B. and Fred T. MacRae, D. Fred

George L. Boswell and Col. F-.I. Andrew. “All these exhibitors made an outstanding showing at what turned out to be the largest entry in dairy cattle at this year’s Royal’.

In Holsteins the Estate of J.W. Jones was represented with a small but outstanding entry as well as cther entries from Cyril Jones. A senior yearling heifer was shown from Falconwood Farm,

The Guernseys were represen:- ed by animals from the herds of Harrison Green, Jchn Docherty, Dan MacLean and Owen Younker and Son. “In keen compet'tion those breeders let the rest of Can- ada know that we have Guernsey cattle of no mean repite’, Mr. Wright said.

ONE OF YOUNGEST

“Keith Barrett, oné of the young- est breeders of dual purpose Shorthorn is to be congrstulated on exhibiting the Reserve Junior Champion Male,” Mr. Wright S2id as he also referred to the other exhibits in this class, Dan Jewell, Stenley Hurry, Keith D.xon, Waldro MaePhee ani Dar- rell Lyle.

Oredit was also brought to the Province by the Stewarts of Dun- stafinage as sheep breeders, and Monty and Dingwell MacLeod of Vernon with dressed poultry ex- hibits.

Mr. Wright dealt in detail with the seed potato entries, 64 of which were from the’ Island. Raymond Vessey carried off top honours in Irish Cobblers and Green Mountains, S.A. MacAulay with Katahdins, and the Estate of Clarence Ching in A.O.V. rose or red.

Reference was also made to the winners in the 4H section for intermediate potato, where Ann MacAulay and Ann Fay of the East Baltic 4-H clyb placed first and seccnd.

TABLE STOCK ENTRIES

Approximately 50--prizges were section. Mr. Vessey and Mr. MacAulay @gain topped their section.

“All in all our province put up @ very creditable showing and I understand brought back almost $1,000 in prize money", Mr. Wright said.

Dealing with the difficulty of securing qualified labor, Mr. Wright said, ‘‘There does not ap- pear to be much relief in sight’’. “At a recent farm labor confer- ‘ence in Ottawa it was stated that in 1959 there were 703,000 work- ers in agriculture in Canada, as compared with 726,000 in 1958. But paid workers increased in 1959 to 113,000 from 101,000 the Previous year.

Looking towards -the future; with particular reference to this! proviece, Mr. Wright said, “We | are sure that the ‘economy of this prov.nce depends principally wpon its farmers and fishermen,” | and referred to the many policies | promoted over the years to as- sist farmers and others to try .to interest our young people in stay- ing on the farms.

4—H CLUBS

“I feel- that the 4-H club po- licy as a project for boys and girls between the ages of 10 and 20 is keeping at least some of our yeung people on our farms in} some form of egricutturc.”

“The farmer is working with the earth that his Creator made,

and is working hand in hand with Tom DeBlois in the-absence—of-sidents of the city, one_was com-

God, to make this earth pro- duce,” Mr. Wrisht said. After describing the outmoded-way of marketing, the speaker dwelt at length on the changing world marketing practices. 3

“The farmer must see that his | potatoes are of such high quality | that they can be taken from large | bags and repecked in five, 10} or 15. pound hags, attractively | marked. This is equally true of | butter. The farmer must re- cognize that the consumer has the final say as to what is bought”.
