Before presenting her report, Mrs. Henderson expressed grati- tude for the way the Orphanage work had been ” T gr-t" -1 too, to the ever-generous people of our Island Province and the many outstanding workers who give iii-ecly of their time and en- ergy. . Mr. W. A. Stewart, owing to illness, was unable to be present as Chairman, and Mrs. Henderson, Vice-Chairman, presided. A fitting tribute was paid to the late Mr. Heath Strong, K. 0.. of Summersidc, who had passed away since the last meeting of the board, by all standing and ob- serving a prayerful silence in his memory.

After telling of the work her hus- band had done during the first years of their marriage, she said they had bought a home on Doug- las Street for 5800, and after liv- ing in ii and her husband work- ing on it for some years had sold it for 32,800 in August 1950. it was mortgaged at that time. They then bought a house on Gerald Street, for 31,630 cash. Just previous to December 4 her husband had been unemployed and had been working around their new house. The urgent need of a portable generating lighting plant, a new fire alarm system and a life net was strongly emphasized lust nilfhi at a largely attended an- nual meeting of the City Fira De- partment. The meeting was held in the City Hall with Fire Chief H. H. Jewell presiding. Fire Chief Jewell called atten- tion to the lac: that the doors of the Fire Station should be wider and should open upwards. Other necessary roquirements suggested were racks on the Blckle to carry rubber boots and a new pump to replace the LaFrance purnper which is now over 20 years old. The firemen were unanimous in urging that a portable generatl 3 plant with a large spotlight provided so that they could safe- ly place their ladders at night fires. Captain W. E, Connolly of the Hook and Ladder Company stat- ed that firemen were in danger of losing their lives at n hi fires under conditions when no lighting facilities ware available and when they had '10 deal with overhead wires carrying high volt- age. The need for a new alarm in- tem was stressed by Captain 0. W. Stewart. who suggested that the present on bail should be replaced with an air hoi-n.""1'oo much confusion 1a caused by ing- ing the fire bell for pu I other than first such an the nine o'c'lock curfew and funerals." he lad. provided.

MacLean were introduced as prospective Kinsmen, There being no further business the meeting adjourned. In a seed survey undertaken during the past year by tihe Provin- cial Department of Agriculture. Out of 164 ' of oats ' t d and tested only it graded Number 1. states Mr. W. R. Shaw. Deputy Minister. 118 of the samples were "rejects," out of which 26 were for other grain, and the balance for weed seeds and low quality. 46 of these were exceedingly bad fcr nox- ious weeds and other weed seeds. Many of the samples were decided- ly unfit for seed grain. In a one pound sample, taken at random. there were 10,096 weed seeds. This would leave 343.364 weed seeds in a bushel. or if a man sowed tlhi-ae bushels to the acre he was actually seeding out over one million weed seeds per acre. some samples had twelve weed seeds of different varieties. In making the survey the field- men went throughout the Prov- ince and selected from the seeders in the field sam-lies of grain. An accurate record was made and these samples were subsequently tested. in the 93 mixed grain samples there seemed to be a very much better quality of grain. which would perhaps indicate that the man who sows mixed feed is taking greater care of his grains for livestock feeding. A former Prince Edward Island man, Mr, Lawrence J. MacDonald of Montreal was found dead in his bed at the Admiral fmiiy Hotel. saint John, New Brunswick, yester- day. Mr. MacDonald was a native of Little Pond but had lived in Mon- treal for the past eighteen or twen- ty years. Prior to living in Ment- real he had resided for a time at M-oncton. He represented the Pcrrin Glove Company in the Maritime Provin- ces and was well and favourably known here, especially by the re- tail merchants. He was in chur- lottetown on business about the middle of November last year , He is survived by a son. Law- rence J. MacDonald Jr.. who rep- resents some commercial lines in the Maritlmea, A daughter Louise predeceased him about a year ago. The potato market in United States points is still picking up although the improvement in prices has only been moderate. reports Mr. W. RI. Shaw, Deputy Minister of Agriculture. Seed demand has im- proved. over 41 million bushels of potatoes have been shipped under price support in the United states as compared with in million bushels at the same date last year. I Home attempts-have wen made to establish alcohol plants for the disposal of surpluses in the United states and possibly some success. may be achieved in this respect. The chief ouifet for Maine potatoes is still the dump pile although there is some little improvement at Support or even less. , The support price for Maine for January is 01.70 sacked and loaded.
