Urged By Beef Producers- By GEORGE CONDON A brief submitted to Hon. An- drew B. Macllae, minister agriculture, yesterday by the P.E.I. Beef Producers Associa- tion recommends the construc- tion of stockyards and an asso- ciated auction in the Charlotte- town area at an estimated cost 000 of 5, . The association stated that a study had been made of the fin- ished and feeder cattle market situation across the country and that the prices on the Island were, on the average, $3 to 84 less than in other Canadian cen- tres. A further study showed that "the establishment of stockyards here, especially if they receive w the active support of the depart- ment of agriculture, would dir- ectly increase beef prices to our producers to a basis of equival- cnt returns for similar grades to the Toronto market," the brief sai . It was further stated that the Association has an option on property in Shier- wood for such a plant which would include an auction rin a scale house. animal pens and located near a railway. “This project", it stated, “Is merely providing for our live- stock farmers similar facilities which have been organized by and for beef producers in most !‘ WESIERN BRIEFS I8 PATIENT Mrs. R.F.

Mr. Hudson found that a stock- yard in connection with an auc- tion would be “justifled" for the Island and he recommended the Charlottetown area. He said. however. that to achieve success the yards would have to handle an average of about 400 cattle per week, which means the mar- ket would have to be in opera- tion for at least eight hours I ee . GOV"l' ASSISTANCE He also stated that such an in- vestment. including the cost of construct n, maintenance and operation, would be too "without some form of govern- ment assistance." The D to report recommended that: equipment should include a prlntograph automatic scale, there should be provision for yarding 700 head of cattle, a lock-up for purchased cattle, loading platforms for trucks and railway cars, and a competent cattleman and exper- ienced weighman should handle the operation of such a stock yard. Mr. Hudson said. "There is nothing else that can be (1 one here to bring the marketing of live cattle up to the desired stan- dard. but regional meetings should first be held all over the province where directors of the Beef producers Association could acquaint the farmers with the benefits to be derived from such an organized marketing arrange- ment, explain how e system will operate and solicit their backing. In discussing feeder cattle the brief stated, “The problem of our farmers’ procuring, distri- buting and marketing unfinish- ed or feeder cattle could also be greatly assisted by and through the operation of properly organ- ised public stoclryards in the province." Graphs and figures were included in the brief to ll lustrate the point. BETTER GRADE! The brief said that the result- ing hlgher prices on the market would tend to keep the better feeder grades in the Marltimes. whereas now they are drained off by Ontario farmers because they. through their stockyard system. are receiving the high- er price for the finished beef and therefore are able to outbid local feeders and still have n of 8 .

The project would be financed with prospective members in- vestlng $15,000 to $20,000 with e remainder to come from “other sources". The brief, signed by Daniel Gass, president of the BPA. also listed some methods for the op- eration of the project. “Arrs nge- ments would be made with live- stock truckers in Prince and Kings counties to transport cat- tle the day preceeding the sale to the stockyard where feeding and stabling facilities would be prov e . “The operation of stockyards and a better system of market- ing in this province will have a direct Influence in improving and stabilizing the beef prices in the Martime provinces," it was tated. s The association said it had done the preliminary work on the pro- ject and represented by all the purebred beef breed organiza- tions in the province, are pre- pared to hold meetings to final- ize support for the association Mr. Tweedy was admitted to the bar of the province of New Brunswiilck Nov. 13, 1963.
