LESLIE CARON, Mr. Douglas was speak ng about Ihofawoeihearr of la proposal made I year ago by the '-ANL AMERICAN cjz-3 li..eader of the Opposition concern- ,ing the establishment of a Gov- lerriment sponsored big hatchery land the, resulting embarassment that would have been felt had the scheme been followed. "The farmer can raise his own pigs and feed and make a pro- fit," continued Mr. Douglas and he suggested that instead of talk- ing about vacant farms the farm- ers should buy the land to grow feed. "The land can be purchased at a low price," he stated and he said that last year he pur- OI NOW .chased 219 acres at 310.00 an acre. OIIOGIIS ! Mr. Douglas pointed out that in I , ncwl is the flaming torch a program of balanced farming the farmer can always be in a comfortable position. "Divine Prov- ince sees to it that there is al- ways a demand for some farm products," he stated as he recall- ed the booming pulp wood indus- try of two years ago when pota- toes were selling at rock bottom prices. He recalled the advice of a wealthy farmer who said. "Stand- still while every body else runs." "The time to buy is when things are cheap." said Mr. Douglas as he pointed out that the pig in- dustry is coming back strong as the result of a great many farm- ers giving up when prices were poor last year. Rural Electrification "I am all in favor of electricity for everyone in the Province but I would not like to see the Gov- ernment go too far in debt to get it," he said on the problem of rural electrification. 'However he felt that something should certainly be done so that everyone might have this service. Mr. Douglas himself lives four miles from regular electric power. "The lack of such service is one reason why our boys are leaving the farm and can you blame them?” he asked. "You can't get any kind of service now unless there are so many people to the mile." he continued and he added that this population stipulation should be discarded.

Theresa's School . fEducaton week offers anoillier opportunity to awaken a greater Mr. Harvey Douglas fer the young people much more, money than the farmer. "Besides." he stated. "there is nothing on the farm now to at- tract the young peopie. In order for a boy to stay on the farm he must have a love of the soil and an urge to own a farm." Mr. Douglas advotated a Land Settlement plan through which the people with money might in- vest in the youth of the Province. He suggested that the money be put into a company from which a ,voung person could obtain funds to start on his own. ”The responsibility of develop- ing our farms should not be up to the Government altogether." he added. ”The people with money are investing it in bonds when they could invest in our youth and be Just as sure of their returns." Marketing Board Indorsed Mr. Douglas urged support of the Farm Marketing Board. "This Board is a. step in the right direc- tion," he stated, "and the people who realize that the money comes from the farmer and the fisher- men should support it," he added. He spoke about the efforts of the dealers to destroy the Mar- keting Board and recalled an in- stance last fall when potatoes w shipping for 32.10 that a dca er came out in a newspaper story and said the farmer should be get- ting si.25. ' Mr. H. W. Clay, Senior Live- stock Fieldman for the Dominion Department of Agriculture came in for glowing praise from Mr. Douglas. "Mr. Clay has been giv- ing good sound advice and if the people had listened to him they would be a lot better off." he stated. "Mr. Clay is seldom astray in his advice," he added. "He told us last fall that pigs would come back,and I am glad I listened to m. Mr. Douglas also spoke of the contributions of pioneer breeders like the Boswelils and Stewart's along with the Dominion Trophy winners towards, the developmeit of the swine industry in the.Prov- ince. i "There should be a road con- structed from the Trans-Canada Highway to the Cold Storage buildings at Charlottetown," he stated. He added that he didnlt think the City streets were con- structed to carry loads of twenty tons. with regard to roads he con- gratulated the Minister of Public Works for laying down a hard surface road across St. Peter's Bay bridge. "We have our share of good roads in the Second Dis- trict," he added. "Each District is given so much money for roads and it all depends how you spend it. We spent most of ours in building 86-foot wide clay roads and we get much more benefit than if we had spent all our money in a few miles of pave- ment." He spoke about the benefits of children's Allowances to small farmers and how difficult many people would find-it to get along without this support. "Now it is possible for most kids to go to school until they are 15 or 16," he stated. with regard to education sug- gested that the requirements for a girl to enter hospital and train for I nurse be cut down. He felt that it was too much to expect a girl to spend two years in Col- lege and three more years in training before she could become an R.N. He suggested that a girl could spend another two years in Col- lege and become "a doctor but on this point he was refuted by Dr. W. J. P. MooMillsn.
