I doubt if we have ever before harvested a crop which approached the I956 crop in quality and quanlty. and this was accomplished by a farm labour force that has been reduc- ed by over 25 per cent since 1941. A We look back with pride on the prizes that our Island farmers have won at the Maritime Winter Fair and the Royal Winter Fair. and the continued progress of our young people in 4-H Club work is. a sourc" of great satisfactici. Uur regret is that prices for some oil -our primary products have noti been adequate u ”' the! ing prices our farmers have to may” - for what they buy. l Looking forward to 1957 we have ' the upmost confidence that our; farmers can and will produce thel very best. and we hope that they will receive prices for their pro-l ducts that will enable them to maintain a standard of living com-l parable to that of people employ-- ed in other industries. May we alli have a Happy and Prosperousi New Year. SO GOOD - I0 BETTER Cooling il one thing: cooling promptly is quite another whciil it comes to' effective cooling oil milk and cream.

Tea was unknown in Europe until the 16th century. when it was men- tioned by thc Portuguese historian Maffel in bi swork tHistoriae in- . dicael as a product of Japan and China.
