Ferry Traffii: For Last Month Tilers was s falling off last month 1n import-s and exports carried across Northumberiand Strait by the cai- ferry as com- pared to the totals for July of 1947. Last month only 1311a cars of freight were ferried from Tor- mentino to Borden as compared to 1.44) cars for the correspond- ing period last year. Iri exports there was a drop of 132 cars, since only 303 cars of freight went to the mainland via Borden last. month as compared to 336 cars in July, i947. Plenty 0f Coal Only 1'71 cars of coal for do- mestic and mercantile purposes were brought to the Province last month while almost twice that quantify. or 314 cars. were ferried from Tormeritirie to Borden In July, 1947. The mere figures would carry the inference that the householder! supply of coal was shorter now thsn it was last yesr whereas the reverse is true. The winter and spring of 1947 saw coal in' short swpplybeoause cf the coal strike so that. when the strike was settled in early pum- mer. coal began coming into the Province in 1a rg e r-than-usual quantities. Now. that it is moving regularly", the monthly imports are naturally less. whether or not the recent agit- ation in agricultural circles re- specting the revival of mussel- mud digging has had a deterrent sflfect on the importation of limo, only 9.3 cars of that remover of soil acidity were imported tn the Province last month s: compared tn 33 cars 1n July, 1047. No Imports 0f Hay Significant under the word “hay" is the dash standing for the quantity imported last month. For the month of July. i047, two cars of hay were imported but this season Island farmers sre giving bay away for the cutting- wblch explains the dash. One more car of sugar and the imports c4 that commodity last month would have been exactly double those for July of 1947, Last month 3 cars were import- 0d This sirnmcf-‘s building boom in Charlottetown and lesser Island centres is reflected in tho quant- itles of cement which are coming over regularly. Last month. 1D cars were ferried over by the car ferry. The figure for the previous July is mo. Other figures The list of inst month's exports shows that seven oars of butter and cheese - unfortunately, thcy are not broken down, possibly b:- csuse both commodities may. in "Prince lldiward Island has un- iquo opportunity for continuing the best in Canadian heritage of character and accomplishment", Major General A.B.

I shall not go into detail regarding the strong cooperation between the Parent Order and its Auxiliaries, because many 1n this body are more qual- ified than I to present the facts to you.
