Potno GRADING the remarks of Mr. Paul Cle- im-nts on central grading of is- Iml potatoes will be received it till considerable interest by built producer and consumer. i('l'.'llnly the potato producer. if hr H to stay in business. has no altmnative but to supply his pro- (llli'l in the manner and form rt-qinreri.

Friday slon was reached to appoint a committee consisting of Dr. Han- nam and three represenatives from the West and an equal num- ber from the East whose func- tion would be to study applica- tions for price support and defi- ciency payments as they may come forward. It was felt that such a committee was necessary If the C.F.A. was to be properly advised on the position of any particular product and thus be in a position to make weli-reason- ed recommendation to the prop- er authorities. Possibly the most significant de claion arrived at by the C.F.A. was that of accepting the idea of deficiency payments (subsidies in effect) for certain products and under conditions where returns to farmers for any given product have fallen to an unreasonable low level. These deficiency pay- ments might be used along with price supports in instances where the latter proved to be inadequate or failed to bring forward neces- sary production. BUTTER INCOME Butter is an important source of summer farm income in this province and it is disturbing to note that towards the end of July production had fallen as compar- ed with last year by 40.000 pounds per week. in terms of dollars and cents this means that on the av- cage each of some 6.000 butter producers had approximately 84.00 per week less income and that in the face of costs which are certainly not declining. Pres- ent yrospects are for pasliires better than that of a year ago. hold its own but should pastures fail not many farmers will be inclined to use the feed which will be sorely tieeded during the coming winter. Certainly the scar- city of hay is going to have its effect on both milk and beef pro- duction during the coming winter.

WHEAT PROBLEM Canada now stands as the only wheat producing country in the world that doesn't subsidize the wheat production in some form. The American wheat farmer with the assistance of his government has been disposing of a large wheat surplus is a variety of da- vious manne s by acceptance of foreign exchange.. barter deals and almost give-away programs tied in at time with commitments for future markets all of which makes for pretty rough market- ing in Canada. Curiously a great many Canad- ians are of the opinion that the Government does help the wes tuaily this is not the case as the western wheat farmers has stood on his own feet for years and footed all the costs of marketing wheat and supplying the domes- tic market at a price equal to what the export market will pay. This latter situation is one which produces on the part of the farm er a demand for a two piece structure l.e. an export price in line with world conditions and price in Canada in line with Ca nadian purchasing power. LIVESTOCK SALE The first of what is planned to be a regular weekly feature was the livestock auction sale held last Tuesday at the Fred- icton Exhibition Grounds in New Brunswick. This particular sale was sponsored by the Capital Cir op. Maritime Coop Services, the Provincial Department of Agric- ulture and various farm groups. we have no report of the suc- cess or otherwise of this sale. usually the first one is the most difficult in attracting consign nienis - many people adopt the wait-and-see attitude.
