" pr MUSi3iES mm In the absence of export con- tracts, Ontario and Quebec cheese will seek Maritime markets and seriously affect the satisfactory prices received for the last two years. , The reduction in tobacco im- ports will cause trouble for anoth- er important industry in Ontario and certainly discontent among the smokers of the old land. Nova Scotla Farmer! Meet The Cabinet Officials of the Nova Soctia Feti- eration recently met the Cabinet to urge that consideration be given to. among other things, the fol- lowing: 1. Payment of bounties on foxes and raccoons as means of pro- tecting poultry industry. 2. Compensation of farmers who lost valuable animals through careless or illegal hunting. 3. Teaching of agriculture in the public schools, with credit for the subject in Provincial Examinations. 4. Regular market price reports for loss and pulpwood. 5. Careful consideration of a proposed increase in interest rates on farm loans. Farm Labor Many farmers require additional spring time help and it is not too soon to start thinking on this question. Where local help is not the answer and farmers can get information from the Unemploy- ment Insurance Commission in Charlottetown. Cropping will come around soon- er than we think and the labor situation is not likely to be any better than a year ago. What- Sets Farm Prices? Farm Forum members had a wonderful time in a recent discus- sion on farm prices. It is not al- ways the consumer who is troubled with the cost of food. apparently the cost of producing it causes greater concern among our farm- ors. While Forum members studied the question. "Is it possible for farmers to control the prices they receive for their produce?"-55 per ct-nt said "No"-40 per cent on- sivcred ::Yes"-and 5 per cent just couldn't decide. The reasons for "No" were-Marketing Boards are not legal here-too much interna- tional competition-no control over supply and demand-and. farmers have to take huycrs' prices. The 40 per cent who were more optlmistio nave the following nug- cestions: Have a farmers Market- lnrz Board which judges term legal -farmers should stand "behind farm organizations-have a hrice g support system similar to U S.A. -and try more Co-operative Mark- etiug. International Night Another local panel discussion has been planned to introduce the National Series of Farm Forum discussion on International Rela- tions. Provincial farmars have come to realize that at present. United Nations policies have placed more responsibility on rural shoul- ders than has been directed to- wards the urban population. Euro- pean labour for farms. with its re- lated problems of immigrationand the recent proposal by the Food and Agricultural Organization of the U. N. to increase production of foods. are questions Canadian farmers must face daily. To give additional background P. E. I. Farm Forum has asked lead- ers of local farm organizations. and a new Canadian now making his home on the Island to talk over several of these questions in It-broadcast at 9:00 pm. Monday.

Feb. 14-(CP)- A crown witness testified Tues- day atthe murdcrtrialof 37-year- old Rvheal Leo Bertrand that Ecr- trand displayed an interest. in the financial status of his wife be- fore he married her and had rc- marked that if' she became his wife and then died, he would be well off. The testimony came from Edou- ard Mathurln, 59. an employee” of the Ontario cleaning firm where -Bertrand worked. Bertrand. hold- er of three correspondence school diplomas in psychology, metaphy- sics and divinity, is charged with his wife's murder. Mrs. Leo Bertrand. 52, was burned to death in a remote hunt- ing cabin at Lac Ste. Marie, Que,, last November. Bertrand report. ed her death to police and said the cabin had been set. on fire by an exploding gasoline lamp and that he could not save her. Mathurin said Bertrand had told him that the woman who later became Bertrand's wife was "from B 800d family and she has some Dfctly nice properties too." ”You know, she is, older than I am," Murchin quoted Bertrand as siiymll. "If I married her and she died, I would be well off for the rest of my days." BROOKVALE SCHOOL Reportlfor January: Grade X-1. John Carraglier: 2. Francis Curley; :1. Imelda Stordy. Grade VII-1.

There are only 177 sq. miles of waste and other-lands. That there is a. high measure of prosperity in our million acre Is- land may be gleaned from the 32.- 776,793 income tax which the Federal Government collected in 1950. Canada's leading industry. pulp and paper, is a. billion dollar busi- ness which produces sililii million 0! new wealth annually. This mighty industry leads in total wages paid, is first in employment, first in exports. and first in cup- ital invested. In 1949 mill and wood workers earned 3287 million. It takes 1,- 200 freight cars every day to move pulpwood to the mills and the fin- ished product to the consumer, as the output of the 126 active mills reaches a yearly figure of over 8 million tons. 92 per cent of our newsprint pro- duction goes to other countries. 0 O 0 one of the longest gasoline pipe lines in the world stretches from Edmonton, Alberta, to Superior. Wisconsin, a distance of 1.126 miles. It cost”-890 million and has a daily input capacity of 95,000 barrels, and can be raised to 146,- 000 barrels should the need arise. Over 1,800.000 barrels of oil were dumped into this huge transporta- tion pipe before the liquid gold went into production. It takes 20 days for a barrel of crude oil to reach its destination.

Prince Edward Island, scratched his head in amazement on a morning last December when. among a litter of new-born piglets he found a pig, or two pigs. with only one head. Two completely formed bodies and limbs were joined in such a manner that one head served the two bodies. The head. it little larger than normal. was adorned with two sets of ears. The freak pig. or pigs, died soon after being born. The 17.080 miles of C. P. R. pass over 3.300 bridges and approxim- ately Zl0.000 culverts.

Today Nylon ma- terial ls melted at 450” F. and forced through tiny tubes or holes to form continuous nia- ments or bristles. The 11' ls are apun into yarn for the manu- facture of artificial silk garments. Nylon may be stretched four to seven times its own original length and this elasticity makes the ma- terial ideal for ladies' stockings. Shellac is produced by small in- sects which live on trees. These insects thrive in India where the DOROTHY DIX SAYS- natives gather this insect secretion and purify it for shipment to the world markets.
