Prowse, and marching -»like‘ regulars, took up their position in front of the en. trance' of the building t'o await the arrival of the Lieutenant Governor. Inside the Legislgtive Chamber there was a large attendance of spectators, a majority being ladies. Punctually at three o'clock His Honor entered the chamber and tak- ing his seat in the speakei"s chair read the following speech:-- Mrs Speaker and gentlemen of the Legislative Assembly. It affords me great pleasure in again meeting you and availing my- self of your advice and assistance in the administration' of the adairs of this Province. In the unexpected death of the late Honourable Arthur Peters this Prov- ince has sustained a great loss. The many expressions of sorrow and regret with which the intelligence of his death was received throughout tho_`Province, and the many marks of respect shown to his memory bear testimony to the high place the late Premier and Attorney General oc- cupied in the hearts of the people. Throughout the Dominion of Can- ada the past year has been one of continued advancement, and in this Province, although a somewhat backward `se`ason prevailed, and con- siderable difllculties had to be en- countered by our agriculturists, a bountiful harvest has happily re- warded their labors. _ As an evidence of the improved conditions in this Province, I have pleasure in calling your attention to the fact that while in previous years we have been importing seed grains largely from Ontario' and the West, we are now` exporting a considerable portion of our surplus crop for seed purposes to Ontario and other Prov- inces of Canada. Our Province is now placed in the van for the pro- duction of cereals for seed purposes, owing chiefly to the efforts of our departments of Agriculture to in- duce our farmers to take _more in- terest~in growing pure seed and to exhibit such at the various exhibi- tions and seed fairs. On account of our bountiful crop and improved conditions the financial stringency which has so seriously affected other places has been but slightly felt in this Province.

An Act to consolidate and amend the Election Laws, also an Act to amend the Public Health Act, and other measures of interest to the Province will be submitted to you. The Public éccounts for the past year, and the stimaiaes for the cur- rent year, will be laid before you. To the matters referred to and to such others as may be laid before you I invite your careful attention, and express the fullest confidence that the result of your delibera- tions under the guidence of Divine Providence, will be in the best in- terests of the Province. After reading his speech His Honor withdrew and the House set- tled down for the work of the ses- sion. Premier I-Iaszard made the usual formal motion of introducing a bill, after which the following committees were appointed. On Agriculture and to discuss all matters relating thereto-Messrs Read, Smith, McWilliams, Irving. McMillan, McDonald, Kennedy. On Journals ot the House-Messrs McNutt, Hinghes, Prowse.

' , ' ~ The Dairy Association of this Pro- vlnce held three meetings yesterday in Prince of Wales College. .Theimorning meeting was devoted to routine, to the recelv ng of re- ports, etc. The Secretary, John Anderson, read a very instructive report of the year’s transactions, and while commenting on the fact that prices were low last year point- ed out that there wa somewhat of a breakdown in co-operation among the patrons of the various cheese factories. More milk cows, and bet- were in_ cordial agreement with Mr. Anderson as to his remarks on the dairy cow. _ AFTERNOON SESSION. At the afternoon session, the Pres- ident Albert Simpson, read his an- nual address, aud the reports ofthe officers of the Association were re- ceived. Thechief event of this ses- sion was the address _by Prof. Barr, ion Dept. of Agriculture. He stated that, strange to say the best milch cows in Canada are in British Columbia; next Ontario; next Quebec; then P. E. Island with the smallest milk product per cow of all Canada. Mr. Barr cautioned the dairymen to look out for rusty cans as one of the greatest dreads of sioner Hon. Hon. S. Hon. Hon. Hon ‘-5 :, thecheese maker. It causes the fruity flavor which is so annoying. He himself traced the bad flavor of one large factory in Ontario to the rusty can of one patron. He congratulated Prince Edward Island dairymen on having the best cheese and butter factories in Canada. He considered this Province is well adapted for dairying. He begged leave to correct a statement formerly made in favor of concrete whey tanks. He now wished to state that the floor or bottom was apt to scale, and was difficult to clean. He considered that wooden whey tanks came next to steel,_which were the best. I An enormous loss is caused annual- about one-half pound per one hundred pounds of milk causing an annual loss of $10,000 to the farmers of this Province. This is more ser- ious than watered milk. Prof. Barr also cautioned those present about aerating milk. It is, much better, he said to cool it rapidly in~water by stirring it about in a can, and cover- ing it as soon as possible as the system of aerating it only intro- duced bad odors into it. - EVENING SESSION. es ion was a most A The evening s s of the Dairy Branch of the Domin-_interesting _m__e_ as there were my ,sent, in addition to the members of , _the Association, Premier Haszard and several members of the Govern- 'mcnt, the Leader of the Opposition land n 'number of-the members of the Legislature.
