Dairy cattlemen have exercised sound judgment in de- veloping their herds during a per- iod when bargain prices prevailed. The beef cattle industry has also undergone a vcry considerable improvement through the distri- bution of selected. registered ani- nulls. Another improvement in livestock activities is indicated in the estafo- lishment during the year of eight new calf clubs and the reorganiza- tion of older clubs to carry oh the usual season's work. The prospects mended for raising in the City Council the question of lnsanitory houses. Every house connected with the sewerage sys-‘ tom, for. as Dr. Keeping, I-lcuith‘ ofiicer states, there will ncvcr be as there are residences without zhe necessary scwcragc connections. it is absurd, in the extreme, that Zbc City. in collaboration with the Rod Cross, should spend a large sum of money annually on Public Health, and themselves fail i0 en- force the elementary Public Health regulations n-iihlzi their jurisdic- tions.

CURRENCY That there are d_iff—crcr'iccs in the Government the question of currency is vvcll known but there is no difference regard-l ing the policy to continue for the present on the gOld standard. The! Prime Minister has clearly sot forth the why and the wherefore of the Government's policy, and no auth- oritative opposition from any mem- bers of the party, ‘or from the leader of the Opposition has been; forthcoming. This docs not prevent individual members of the Govern- ment, or ‘the front bench of the Opposition. holding and advocating diverse views should the oppor- tunity occur for a change of policy. The Hon. H. H. Stevens, Minister of Trade and Commerce, for in- stance, is a believer in bi-metaiism, and has not hesitated to express his convictions on the subject. sim- ilarly, the Hon.

Many new centres are in- dicating an eagerness to establish clubs, and an attempt will be made to enroll as many new organiza- tions as existing facilities are capable of properly supervising. Rcfcrcncc is also made to the value of cow testing associations, which now number twenty-one units in operation. During 1932 Island hog breeders continued to dominate the Mari- time’ shows. This reputation has been recognized to such a degree that the bulk of Maritime hogs and a large proportion of Quebec hogs, trace their pedigree to stock bred and developed in this Province. (Ionsidering low prices and the consequent natural tendency to pay less attention to quality, the grad- ing of Prince Edward Island hogs during 1932 was abovc expectations, many districts having shipped higher jicrcentagc of Selects last year than in 1931. The report also notes the splendid success, from a breeder fl. | standpoint, of the exhibitions staged in 1932. This applied to the small- er fairs as well as to the Provin- cial Exhibition, the Fox Show and the Central School Fair, the latter being the first of its kind to be hcid in this Provincc, and possibly in Canada.

In reviewing the cgg and poultry siiuation, attention is called to the favcrablc poultry prospects for 1933. Storage stocks of eggs are practically depleted, and poultry (holdings at Jan. 1st arc approxi- mately 2.090.000 pounds under the ‘five year average. and 3,000,000 under 1932. Conditions such as those. it is.suggcsted, should have ‘a. tendency to strengthen the mar- ket for poultry products. Emphasis is placed in the report ‘on the value of following diversi- fied production rather than con- centrating on one line of endeav- our. This is an opinion in which all authorities have concurred. Frin- lng must always be attended with uncertainty sincc it depends upon dflntlitlflns so many and diverse; but mlxcd farming offers the surest safeguard against loss. and it is a system which seems to be well adapted to this Province.
