Any clover crop which rovers the stubble by June 1st gives promise of a good crop. This year we see clover fields iiiat have made such progress as p,-iriy as May 20th. The rapid growth of pasture indicates that cattle may not be able to prevent pastures from growing up into buy. The use of the mower on or about June 20th will improve pastures later in the season. While Ilic reserve of moisture should be aiicquiiie for satisfactory growth, sh0wel's are desirable to promote germination of grass, clover and root seeds. Root land that is not 4-ultivated until just prior to planting or sowing the crop tends to dry out more rapidly than cult- Il'i'llNI land. It would appear to hr a good practice to do some ('ilIllYRlI0lI on such fields from time to time through the whole cropping season. The Shape or Things To Come Thu recent cheese contract ne- goiinted by the Ontario Cheese Producers Marketing Board is important not only from the standpoint of disposing of a sur- plus product. but is significant in as much as it marks the first iiill" that a group of Canadian ii;.vri.-uitural producers. have ne- f,'flllFIlP(l ii contract with a foreign power. it. is important that agricultural pi-ociiiucrs put themselves in pos- Ill0fl to take cure of surplus in the home and export markets so that such surplus cannot be used in better down the price at which our products will sell on the domestic market. a market quite able to pay a fair price for land. Fariiiers can only place them- -rives in this position by support- his their own farm organization and by striving to solve their own marketing problems. . Census Returns in the month of June farmers arc coins: to he asked for the usual information on their crops and livestock holdings and in ad- diiion cnumerators will call on them for infonnatlon required in the regular ten years census.

A few yminutes suffices to fill out these forms and we suggest that farm- ers who receivs them fill them out as usual and in even great- er numbers than last year. The Barn Is Gone Two disastrous barn fires in the past week have caused serious loss to the owners and served to emphasize the fact that farm barns are extremely vulnerable to destruction by fire. Fires are liable to occur at any time and can be crippling fl- nancially in the absence of ade- quate insurance. Fire insurance rates are not high on farm pro- perties and it is sound practice to carry ample insurance. Some IBFITI owners carry D0 II'i8l.ll'lTlCf.' and many inadequate insurance to cover losses. Think it over- tomorrow may be too late. New Grass and Clover Varieties Seed houses report an increased demand over other years for new clovers such as Ladlno, Alfalln and Brome. Meadow Fescue and Orchard grass. This indicates a growing interest in improving pasture and hay crops and the farmer who does his own exper- imenting will gain first hand knowledge on the possibilities for these new crops. Turnip Seed Information from reliable sour- ces indicates that in British Col- umbia where much of our turnip seed is produced, turnips did not winter well and that the prospects are for decreased seed production in that province during the cur- rent year. Farmers who are planting turn- ips for seed. particularly the Laurention variety. can expect good returns for their crop this year. Egg Prospects So far this year egg production in Canada has been down about 15 per cent compared with the same period in 1950. On May lst; we had in Canada in storage, 135 thousand cases. less than half the quantity of a year ago. Pre- sent market demand are absorb- ing practically the entire product- ion which would lndicaie con- tinued good prices through the summer. January to April hstchings are about 14 per cent above a year ago for Canada. The increase in hatchlngs on Prince Edward Is- land is much greater than for Canada as a whole which would appear at the present time to be ai sound practice. The Potato Business ,The potato market continues draggy with the demand light and little evidence of prospect for improved prices. Potatoes will continue to move through June and possibly up to the middle of iv u . New potatoes from the United States are now being offered in Toronto and by June 20th Ontario new potatoes will be available. Even with three starch factories operating to capacity it is going to be nip and tuck to dispose of the balance of the crop. New Brunswick still has sub- stantial qusntitles and is putting considerable pressure on the mar- ket. The acreage reduction going into effect this spring will quite likely result in more satisfactory marketing conditions in the com- ing season but, will not neces- sarily guarantee any msrked im- provement in prices. Potato Disease Control Demand for Prince Edward Is- land potatoes has been built up through strict attention to quai- lty and rigid control of disease. Neighboring provinces are afflict- ed with such disease as bacterial ringrot and potato wart disease. which. if they became prevalent here would very seriously damage our markets. 1.50 75c 1.98 THE CENT , 11-E GUARDIAN.

BLESSING or run: soars Ari RUSTICO - Approximately 400 people gathered on the new Fed- eral Government wharf at Rustico last Sunday afternoon to witness the annual ceremony of the bless- ing of the boats. The wharf was attractively decorated with flags and bunting and fishermen from Ilustlcoville, Oyster Bed Bridge. North and South Rustlco gathered to receive a. special blessing of potion. formed in procession and sang the "Magnificat." while marching down the wharf. Appropriate hymns were sung while the boats were blessed by the Rev. Father Peters. The ceremony was brought to a close by singing ”O Canada" and "God Save the King." One of the most serious prac- tices in spreading disease is the use of used sacks for handling potatoes. The former has no way of knowing where such sucks or- iginate or what contamination they may carry. Provincial regulations prohibit- ing their use deserve the fullest co-operation of all engaged in the potato trade. Beware. the used sack.

The greater the number of members the more active the Federation can be and the great- er will be the results. With The Dalryrnen c Island cheese manufacturers met on Wednesday evening to Plan their marketing operations for the coming season. Prospects are for satisfactory prices and with good pasturage, cheese producers can look forward to a successful sea- son. in spite of greater returns for milk going to cheese factories, cream producers showed little ev- ldencc of switching from butter to cheese. Apparently the dairy- men places considerable value on skim milk for the raising of calves, poultry and hogs. The butter market shows con- siderable strength with prices well above the floor-a condition which may continue well into July. It docs not appear that the Dairy Products Board will be embarrasscd with any substantial quantities of butter.
