HUTCHISON ADDRES- SES RED CROSS-—Mrs. Hutchison, National Commandant of the Nurs- ing Section of the Canadian Red Cross Corps, inspected the Sum- merside Detachment recently and gave a short talk on nursing. Mrs. Hutchison commended the mem- bers on their progress in drill. In her address she pointed out the need they were fulfilling in prepar- ing themselves as a traine to serve in any emergency that might arise. The greatest need at the present time is adequate nursing personnel. Canada today is facing a steady depletion of the nursing services of hospitals and healill de- partments, due in part to the re- quirements of the military estab- lishments. The Canadian Red Cross does not train nurses, but trains nursing aides, known as the Nurs- ing Auxiliary members. The train- ing consists of home nursing, addi- tional lectures, sanitation and hy- giene, communicable diseases. - fant care. simple invalid diets and many other things. It is a service that will be of lasting value to any woman both in town and country It is proposed that girls who take the C. R. C. C. nursing trainimi. mould enter the different hospi- tals and train as nursing aid. Mrs. Hutchisonh address gave ‘on the warble fly d group h much a heavy said. A few vears p.10 th? ltifmfls there "simply forgot farming. Now they were getting back and one of the greatest reasons for this is the co-operativcs. the speaker declared. He commended the policy of re- moving freight rates stating that it was very beneficial to the country. He hoped that the Government would see to it that f‘one end of the country is not sacrificed to any other part." Canada is a farm where grain is grown at one end and livestock at the other. This grain must be transported to feed the livestock. He referred to the financial as- sistance given by the government to the Tyne Valley Cheese Factory. stating that it did. not cost the gov- ernment anything. He spoke of the J. benefit which accrued to the farm- ers of the district by this arrange- merit. Speaking of parasites he declared they take a toll off the average farm greater than is realised. He then dealt with the more common of these recommending the treat- ment found most useful in each case. He also suggested the most suitable time for giving treatments. He dealt particuiarlv with the bot fly which plays havoc with horses. Many questions about the pro r procedure to follow in apply a treatment were asked by those present. id lso ld isc lo Prof Re a ewhitzhu £35m; cows; and parasites which affect 0E8. The evening meeting opened with the report of the nominating committee. The results 0f till-i W95 given above. This was followed by an inter- esting talk on the curing of hay by Mr. Lincoln Dewar. In his dis- course he pointed out that it was always a. busy season when bhe hay was being out. The first essential in having good hay was to see that it was cut when properly matured, he asserted. He claimed it was impor- tant to cut hay early as there is much more "after grass" and pas- ture as a. result. It was pointed out by the speaker that this prov- ince usually suffered heavy rain- fall during the haying season. In this respect the harvesting was very late last season. Mr. Dewar went on to say that dew damages clover which valuable information and stressed is w, and 1e“ out the need for more women in each community able to take over nurs- ing duties if necessary-S.

Clover hay which is thoroughly cured is ruined if rain gets at it, he said What he put on the tripods was green and after three weeks of weather he only lost one load out of seven. two were slightly damaged. whllc four were exoellert. l-Ie eXPPQSSOd the opinion that by using tripods an excellent quality of hay could be harvested. Care must be exer- cised in putting the hay on these tripods. He also suggested some protection against rain. l-ie explained how the tripods were ma/le from boards and benches. Three tripods hold a load of hay. Another method of curing is the converting of clover hay into en- silage, Mr. Dewar went on to sav. In this way there is also absolute- no loss. The hay i; out. hauled right in. out through the cutter and blown into the silo. A full lo. of the various methods or curing and their mer- its was entered into by the various farmers present. Manv questions relating to the use of tripods in curing hay were asked and differ- cnt experiences in this dirrctkm related. Messrs. Reid. Lloyd Lock- erby. Home, Proflit and others in this discussion which by Mr. Dewar s? took no rt was led MoMurio, Jarrllne- This was followed b! a lhprt discussion on the relative merits of the application of fertiliser. It was pointed out that the complici- tiavn of the soil in o. particular section of the province plays an important part in select fertiliser to be used. Some are particularly adapted to mined fertilizer, while others are not. m. W. l. lhlw Mr. W. R. Shaw in l. short od- dress, referred to the matter of soiia which had just been dil- cussed. A system that suite in one farm does not apply in another. He then dealt with the feeding of hogs which was referred to at a previous farmers meeting dur- lug the week. ' He spoke of the various methods of feeding which he had found successful on hi; own farm. “Whether it is nutrition of enl- mals or nutrition of soils there are still many things to be found out," he declared. The main topic of his talk was “trends of the present time." Speaking 0n this he refer-red to the effect of war on agriculture. l-le advocated increased production of barley and mixed grain-in the t0 province. Farmers growing livestock and cattle should pay particular attention to this. He expressed be- lief that this province could in time become self sustaining in tilts respect. He then referred to the large amount of imported feed coming to the Island at present. An in- crease of three bushels per acre in the province would completely cancel the necessity for imported grain. The careful selection of feed and attention to proper fertilizer was stressed by the speaker. The increased production of live- stock would be benefitted by the removal of freight rates on feed grains He warned of the possib- ilifv of a shortage of the crop in the west. The trend is also for higher grain prices and a greater production of livestock in the west. Speaking about the trend in cneese production. Mr. Shaw thought that it would be inadvis- able to change from butter to cheese. But there is also the possibility that the supply of butter for the Olu country might have to come from Canada in the next year, In connection with cattle he said there is a trend at present to strange from dairy to beef breeds. He warned against carrying this too far and destroying the dairy herds. Where there is a good foun- daiion in any breed it should not be changed. Substantial advances have been made in the poultry industry, the speaker said. The trend is toward expansion with quality. Eggs will now be (‘Xpcrtcrl m powdered form this year because ‘ibS easier to ship and saves space. That will not affect the grading here, he said. About 500.000 chicks should be hatched in the hatcheries of the province this year with luck, Mr. Shaw stated. The poultry industry is worth about $2,000,000 to the Island. he added, . The fact that poultry is im- ported here from Western Canada dces’ not mean that there is o. shortage. The milk fed chickens of the province are not used for canning. In conclusion he said the most important trend at present is the education along agricultural iirlcs which is being advanced here. Mr. A. R. Profitt._ towards the end of the meeting, paid tribute to the late Clifford Lea of Victoria whose death occurred recently. Mr. Hume and Mr. Gibson also added e word of tribute. It was moved by Jss. E. Ding- well, North Lake, and seconded by J. W. MncLean that Allison Prof- iit be a representative, with the President, on the Federation of Agriculture. Resolutions The following resolutions were DRE . Resolved that this meeting em- phatically protest against the ob- vious and glaring discrimination against the members of the agri- cultural industry- We would there- fore demand that agriculture be given fair and adequate represen- tation on the various boards dir- ectlng such matters as price con- trol, exemption of prospective agri- cultural trainees and on all vital boarrk, connected either directly or indirectly with bile rationing and allocation of raw materials essential for civil or military pur- poses. Moved by J. L. Dewar and seconded by Wylie Gibson. The meeti._ went on record as Rpprflylllg resolutions asking that the pullman service to the main- land be discontinued until such grill; as its reinstating is justi- 9 . The Central Institute also Weni on record as approving the freight free policy as established and op- erated by the Dominion Govern- ment wiilh regard to whole grain (and assistance in fertilizer) and asked that it be continued for the duration. A resolution of thanle- for the use of Prince of wales College. the press and to the citizens of Charlottetown for their hospital- tty. was also adopted. PRESIDENT'S ADDRESS The following address was de- livered by President Wylie Gibson: As we assemble here this ailer- nwn for the Annual Meeting of the Central Farmer's Institute of Prince Edward island it gives me pleasure to welcome this splendid gathering of fonners from almost every community in the province. First o! all may I lake this op- portunity of givinfl expression to the-t feeling of sadness, and sense orlosethatfemsurecomestous all, as we miss the familiar pre- sence of our late friend.

Many of our farmers find it (lifflcilli to produce the heavy crops of Clover which they grew some years ago and which in s0 necessary if we are to produce high class Livestock. , According to Mr, J. E. McIntyre, Agricultural Agent, of the C_,1~l.R,., the soil of the Mariiimes has be- ccme somewhat acid in character wit-h the result that thousands of dollars worth of Clover-Seed fail to give any returns whatever. Mr. McIntyre strongly advises farmers to have their soil tested by a com- petent soil chemist, and the result will invariably show the need 0i supplying limestone to tile soil. Gentlemen I am confident from our own experience that this ad- vice is of great importance to al- mcst cvtry farmer in our province.
