Of these one hundred sows and heifers qualffylng eighty sight are owned in the province. w; remaining sixteen are Prince Edward Island bred cows ‘that hgve been sold to parties outside we province. These records ‘are for all ages mm Junior two year olds to ma- y,“ cows with tho larger numbers almost one third two year clds and [an per cent three year olds o!‘ ‘wit. forty per cent in their heifer (qrrn.

'l'h leading cow in milk produc- lfcn was Helen Colantha Frances with 29.045 pounds milk and 1042.- 50 pounds butter; she is a daugh- ter of Patrick Francy Colanthas end bred by Mr. W. L. MacEachern Mennald and now owned at Ex- perimental Farm. Fredericton, N. a. six other cows gave better than 20,000 pounds of milk while the leading butter fat cow was the ve- leran cow Jean Abbekerk Pontiac who has now no less than six re- cords averaging over 1,000 pounds of butter. All these records except one are on twice a day milking and her last at eleven ' years is 8,506 pounds milk and 1120 pounds of butter. Jean was closely followed by Albegweit Dixie mt: (axdaugh- lcr of Plus Duke Rnymondale) bred at Bunbury Pam, who had 13,800 pounds of milk "and 1115 pounds butter. ‘in all during 1982 we had in Prince lidward Island fifteen cows and heifers makirli over seven: hundred and fifty pounds o! butter each. which mus that they have made an age of over two pound; per fay for the full year which even lt present day prices means an nnnual revenue per pow or over ma hundred and sixty dollars, not taking into account the value of the tim milk which if taken into consideration ‘would bring yearly ‘revenue per cow up to about two hundred dollars or taking all the cows and heifers qualitying in 1932 the average revenue from them would be between one hundred and fifty and one hundred and sixty dollars. It is pleasing lo note the in- creased interest taken in Record of Performance work and it ls to be hoped that isaa mu makc greater progress than heretofore. Note the increased value accrue- fng from aiming of these quali- fied dams as when purchasers are looking for improved stock almost the first question asked are these cows qualified or are they from ‘alified ancestry.

The following breeders are only new beginners at Record of Per- formance work ‘and are to be com- mended on the records made: J. O. McLean. H. .1. Stetson. L. E. Pro- fltt, B. H.

It is also - interesting to note what strains of blood hands prom- inence in the records made in 1932. Two sires bred by H. J. Kennedy, Clearview mm. southport. name- ly. Prltje Kerk Calanthus had nine daughters qualify and his sire King Kerk cclarithus had five. This last named bull, a son of Patrick Fran- cy Oolanthus and Queen Elizabeth Kerk. is now owned by United States breeders and his son Pritje Kerk Colanthus by A. M. Agnew. (fralg-a-lee Farm. Charlottetown: these two sires are indeed" a, credit to the province and to the breed. Count Haney Heimke had five ' “ s qualify last year. Dok- tor Pritje Echo also had five daughters making records in 1932.| while Abegweit Pluto had four.‘ unbury Paul C. Porch and Dok- tor Bousfield Abbekerk and Para- gon Pat had three each. All these sires are of practically the same strain of blood as they are all of Prince Colanthus Abbekerk blood and have all been bred from sires either owned or bred by J. Walter Jones of Buribury Faun, who has the hcror of being the first Hol- stein mastcr breeder in Canada. 0f the other sires leading in recorded daughters, King Daisy Raymon- dale owned by Hon. W. M.

Ottawa, very satisfactory results were obtained from ‘the. use of manure and fertilizers. An application of 20 tons of manure resulted in 376 bushels of market- able potatoes, l9 1-2 tons of mali- gels, 21 ions of beets and 8 ions of celery per acre. Ten tons of ma- nure supplemented by ‘150 pounds of a. 4-8-10 fertilizer gave almost as good yields as the 20 ton rate of manure. The yields from a dress- ing of 1500 pounds of 4-8-10 ferti- lizer mixture (without manure) gave yields as follows: 320 bushels of marketable potatoes. 18 l-2 tons of mangels, 17 toms of beefs and 6 tons of celery per acre. The areas which received neither ma- nure nor fertilizer produced 18B bushels of potatoes, 6 1-4 tons of riiangels, 9 tons of beefs and 3_ 1-4 fonsof celery, per acre. An area of this peat land which had been treated in 1931 with ma- nure and fertilizer, produced 48 bushels of barley per acre iii 1932 and an excellent stand oi’ clover. An untreated area gave a yield of but 19 bushels of barley. - The above results show that ma- nure and fertilizers may be used to great advantage in tho growth of grain, hoed and Yegetilbit‘ crops on newly broken peat lands.
