At least 13 persons died, heavy property damage was recorded and stock and crops suffered widely from devastating dust storms and toma- does followed by a blinding blizzard. The wheat belt profited from the moisture of sleet, snow and rain- the first precipitation in some arid sections since last summer's drought.

Ford, vicinity, met in the school hall, to decide what means could be taken, that they might proditaibly market their surplus stock of potatoes. w. hank Flood was elected to the chair and Mr. James E. Coedy act- ed as seozetary. After freely discussing the mat- ieritwssehowntimtowlngtnthe high freight rates from Island points to the central markets of Montreal and Toronto, and the oosc of handling, it was ‘impossible at one present prices to market their potatoes without loss to the pro- ducer. At the end of the meeting a resolution was moved and unen- imously passed, to be forwarded to the Federal . rNSCRCEZIVOQ of Queens. Mr. John H. Myers and Mr. Chester lVLoLur-e, to urge them to use their influence in inducing the Government and railway officials. t0 lower the freight rates on pola- tces, that. they might be able to market them, at least without loss. It W815 also shown that a lowering of the freight rates would not nec- essarily mean a low of revenue to the railway, as with the present rates the producer earl-not ship, but with lower rates more potatoes would be marketed and the farm- er would have more money which would be used in buying lime. fer- tilizer, seeds and etc. Thus the railway would indirectly benefit by it. Following is a copy of the res- olutlon. Whereas the question of freight rates on the CALR. is. especially ‘,1 these years of depression, for the farmers a. very vital one, and the present high rates to Montreal and other points in Canada are very disastrous to the famiers interests, ORWELL Collected by Miss Goldie Maclnnls Peter MscQueen $2.00 A.
