reasons have already been ad-
to _vvliy the Prince Edward Is-
should be-lstandai'dizccl and
9 Board of Trade in a re-
solution published in _vesterday`s Guar-
dian, has again drawn attention to the sub-
ject. No doubt the government full_v real-
izes the necessity of proceeding with this
work at the earliest possiblennonieiit.. b_iit
as is only too well known, the war has rais-
ed many unforscen obstacles zindtlicsc can
only be grappled with and overcome as the
most urgent necessity demands.
In previous refcrciices to this matter
the Guardian has pointed out that the stan-
dardization of our railway and -thc estab-
lishing of a direct comniuiiicatioii between
Island points and the contiiientnl i'ailwa_v
system would be not a matter of expendi-
ture but of economy. With a standardi'/.ed
railivay and the heavier engines that would
be-in use the cleai'iiig oi" our railivay in
winter would be a very much less expen-
sive business than it is and the cost of
transfer at Port Borden under present.
conditions, which is a vei'y considerable
item, would be eliminated. But much
greater than these considerations is the
matter of marketing oui' produce. It may
as well be admitted at the outset that un-
der present conditioiis the whole of the Is-
land`s cxportsible produce cannot be got
to the market and this is a very serious
matter at present when every pound of
food produced is needed. At present there
are over a million bushels of potatoes
stored in the province besides very large
_quaiitities._,of.__.oats and other grains. The
potatoes are perishable and a large propor-
tion of those now on hand will not be mar-
keted, simply because they cannot be ta-
ken away with oui‘ present facilities for
handling them. The transfer at Borden
from Island to standard cars is not only
an additional expense but a' source of se-
rious delay and danger fi‘om frost and this,
in handling a million or more bushels iii
the short time at disposal, only means that
the greater part of the million bushels will
not be handled.
The government has been proceeding with
the standardization of the road during the
past year or more by doing preparatory
work in the way of laying standard ties
and widening the road-bed. This work is
to -be taken up in earnest during the com-
ing summer with the intention of broad-
ening the gauge when war pressure has
been relieved. This is well, but, under the
circumstances, it is not enough. The need
of food stuffs is so urgent that the world
caiiiiot'afi'oi'd to lose a proportion, it large
p_i‘oportion, of the food raised in even so
small a province as Prince Edward Island.
Moreover with necessary transportation
facilities the production of this province
could easily be doubled. As it is, knowing
that the products cannot be exported,
knowing* that serious loss may be incurr-
ed throughwant of shipping facilities our
ft-trmers cannot be expected to greatly in-
crease their production. .
It is hoped therefore that every effort
will be made to place the situation fairly
and squarely before the authorities at Ot-
tawa. and that our representatives, feder-
al and local, will be backed up by every in-
terest in the province in urging the neces-
sity of going ahead as speedily as possible
with this urgently needed war-time work.
If it,c,an__be_definitely, announced before
 ding time that the standardization of
_ e road will be completed in time for next
f ll’s shipments it is safe to assume that
it will mean a greatly increased ci'op for
the coming season and this is one of the
placed at their disposal until they are able
to reach their own. This the many soldiers
