Congratula- tions are also due the two memb- ers, "the Blane-Donald brothers" I might cull them, who so ably moved and seconded the Reply. The leudtt’ of the Opposition appeared t0 enjoy the (‘lllllllIIlllPllIS paid to liim by the mortu- iif llic Reply, and he intimated to tlio House that the (luties of liis posi- tion were heavy.

THE CHARIIOTPETOWN GUARDIAN t-"oizruscsl S’ SPEECH IIESS DEBATE MAINTAIN TO THE FULLEST AND HIGHEST DEGREE THE FERTILITY OF THE SOIL, AND THAT, AFTER ALL, SHOULD BF,‘ THE MAIN OBJECT OF AGRICULTURALISTS IN THIS PROVINCE. There was u time in our Pm- vince. iu the old days. when our soil was new and produced wond- erful crops of grain, hiiy and other farm products. We had than an open market in the neighboring pro- vinces and in the New England States and it was very easy l0 grow crops of oats, hay and other commodities and put them on the market for ready cash. Men are up! to follow the liiie of lmirl resistance, and ltlint is what our forefathers appear to have done. 'l‘lii-y sowed their seed and gather- cd in the bountiful crops without irorrying much about the future. The-n they noticed that the crops were gutting lighter and lighter as the years went on and finally it was seen thnt something must be done to increase fer-tillty. To the credit of a Conservative administration at Ottawa some twenty-five or thirty years ngo they sent down Professor Roberl- son, who put us on the mop, so far as agriculture is concerned, and inaugurated what is known as Live Stock, or Dairy, farming. . DAIRY GRADING AND MARKETING We have made grout progress along the lines of duirying in the years gone by. Our production has increased from time to time, but I um sorry to say that so fur u... grad- ing and marketing conditions are concerned we have not advanced 'l‘l-lEN, ALONG THESE TWO LINES. And while we have not advanced along these, lines, we must remember that other pro- vinces have gone alieud by leaps nnd bounds. in Nova Scotia todiiy all their butter iind cheese is sold by grade, and it is sold cooperativ- ely, with the exception of one factory, Scotsburn factory.

DENNIS AND THE DAIRY INDUSTRY I must compliment the member for Second Prince (Mr. Dennis) upon his address. It was CIITULIIIIY something worth listening to. The first and by for the most important part dealt with the Dairy industry and the situation into VJIIICII it has fallen at the present time and the remedy that might be applied to it. He did well. But I want to in- form this House thnt ilie argu- ments he put forth to us “were re- ceived from no less a source than from your humble servant. who is now speaking to the Iiousifll had occasion to conduct an ngricultural short course In O'Leary recently; Mr. Dennis was there and on that occasion l outlined fully llli! very problems he has outlined today. I must compliment the Hon. gentleman, that while his hearing may not he lthe best, as lie has told us at least his MEMORY is ex- cellent! (Laughter). Speaking of the Dairy industry l might say thnt ft is a very im- portant matter indeed. Reference ha; been made to the growing of certified seed potatoes and froin the remarks of leader of the Opposi- tion you would almost think that it was Mr. Dell nni his colleagues in the late Government who hud planted the first lrlsli Cobblers iii Prince Edward Island. The credit for the progress rnmle by that or- ganization is not due at nll to nny Government, and more especially to the BellGovernment. It was dua to the fact thnt a number of farm- ers got together, seeing grant possibilities in the matter of grow- ing certified seed. and they went right ahead. I believe if care is oxcerclsed and they keep the grade of their stock up to the require- ment; of the market of tho South- ern States Jhnt they wll to a cer- tain extent solve some of the difficulties under which the Island is laboring at present.

GRADING OF BUTTER_ I think the member for Second Prince said thut wlicn fresh Iiuttei‘ is graded it only stands up to grade for three weeks. I do not thliik that is right. I know I took vvlth me -two members of the House to visit the Technical School yes- terday and the grader showed us a sample of butter which I under- stood lilin to say “'11s made lust miiy. it was Number One then and it Is Number Ono yet. MR. DENNIS: My authority is Mr. Wright ,tlio Dairy Commission- er. Vilhlle butter may retain its griule longer, you cannot legally null Number One unpasturlzed butt- er a5 Number Ono more than three weeks aftc., or pasturizetl Number Two as Number Two without re- grading after six weeks; but it might retain its grade for a year. MON MR. MYERS: WELL, I om very strongly in favor of grud- lng butler. rind it seems to me that my lion. friend can hurdly be correct, because it would scarcely be worth while to go to the expon- se of pasturizlng and grading butt- er that would only stand up to grade for six weeks. However" I will accept higcorrection. l Comparison In Dairy Production Tho Hon. member mode a com- pnrlson between the size of forms on tho Island and in Denmark. It would be a happy iitnto of nffiiirs if every 111/9 acres of the Island hnd n former and a family and n herd of dairy cows. I am afraid thnt is tls yet a long way off. In contrast to that we have another outstanding dairy country, New Zcnland. Mr. Ruddick Informed mo at Ottawa a few months ago that the conditions for manufacturing butter there are pinch more favor- able than in any other country ho is acquainted with. They have large herds, of from 200 lto -I00 cattle, and large dairy plants; and as those plants do not have more than flva or six patrons, it Is easy to see that such factories would he able to con- trol their quulity. But I believe if we gave our cream our best atten- tion. with the soil and excellent feed we have, the inland butter could he made a, good as any butter in the world. I might also point out that Denmark is buying nearly every- thing their dairy cattle require in the wny o! feed. Here we grow mostly-everythipx we need for feed entlybuy very little. _ 1 might reply to some rerncrke made by the member for Boooiid Prince with reference to tho roads.

Also, thnt the Arsennult Government. it- self was tie-footed on the 23rd- duy of July, 1919. They took a. few weeks to clean up affairs and then handed the Government over to Mr. llell and his colleagues, AND YOU CAN EASILY SEE THAT THE ARSENAULT (IOVERNMENT HAD ABSOLU- TELY NO TIME IN THE YEAR, 1919 IN WHICH T0 COMMENCE- 'l'I_~lElR ROAD WORK. Further than that, when the Arsenoult policy it was ridiculed by a “dnmnable" scheme. Educational Problems Itoference has been made wonderful things the Bell Govern- mcnt has done for the school teachers. We all recollect the campaign of 1919 when Mr. Arsenoult, knowing a5 lie did that we required greater funds to carry 0n the educational system of the Province, went boldly to the people, stating his policy and telling them that we necdod 857,000 or $80,000 additional revenue to be set aside to increase the teachers salaries. I do not know what happened throughout th-e rest of the Province but I do know what happened in the district in which l contested the election the Fourth District of Prince. From one meeting to the other my opponents on that occas- lou told the people that there was absolutely no need for this lnoreale, "Put u; in power, and by applying ilraiv attention to the fact that the arbmwry “aiemem I° l 50d)’ OI‘ free men, an: that which was put in SICl-lhi 'l‘O IlNDIIItS/PAND l1‘! ‘"1! hind; by the Superintendent of Government announced their rondlrlllm ill-MO "l9 ""6 1i" Y0" Wmfl u“, to the third clan teachers, Liberals; and they even termed it ""3 "Y" 81°F)‘ ""18 "ION through. p, The day-s of THOU SHALT education in our Province and the ire over-and hurled the In, 5;" l Education under the Bell Govern-I mcnt at that time.
