Not only is there an intensive -and intensive search going on for blight and scab resistant potatoes rlmtmgst the “named" varieties, but also amongst the seedlings which, until they earn their name, are gfucicl only by numbers.

It is interesting to not/I that United States hog productl have been entering Canada. and n0 dotiht have influenced our market: to lower levels as United states b0! prices are now lower than Canad- .an prices. In order to protect our position an embargo has been placed on United States pork woducts. 1n- dlcfltions are for a record hog cro and lower prices in. the Unites States tn 1949 ‘these conditions will. no doubt. affect, to some extent. conditions in Canada. Otir Island situation would seem to be firm with an intense interest in constructive breeding principl: and o search for a high type sows of Advanced Registry breed- ing. The 104B production of swine on the Island was possibly bloc bed we have ever had. Our Agricultural Council in 1948 advocated product. ion of 150.000 hogs for Prince 5d- ward Island. Our actual production, taking in hogs that are going to packing plants, into domestic consumption and the sucker trade, would resold well up to the target. set. Our tall month delivery to inspected plant! is approximately 70.000 hogs. H would appear from present report- ed breeding records that our ‘I94! production of hogs would be some- what larger than in 194.8. Witii other provinces going book COIIBidF erably the enthusiasm and nobility associated with our hog industry oi; the Island is finding expression in new high levels of production. Dairy Product The price of dairy product In! eased a bit and creamer-y prices do- livercd at Charlottetown are 69 1-20, about 1-4 less than ceiling price. Production is keeping up well for this period of the year. Detnand for our home produced product, r4 compared with the imported Dan- ish butter, is particularly keen. The ciflcf topic of discussion in dairy circles is margarine and it ll not yet clear just what ultimate action or actions maybe taken wit): reference to this matter. A copy a Minute of His Honour thl Lieutenant Governor-in - Council dated January 12, 1940. orders the the Dairy Industry Act be pro- claimed to come into full force and eficc! on the 17th day of Jan- uary. 1049. The affect of this proclamation would be to pro- hlbit the manufacture and sale of margarine in the Province of Prince Edward Island. At the same time the validity n! ‘his Act is being referred to the Supreme Court, who will bring down their decision in due course. Until such a decision has been made however, the manufacture and sale of margarine will be pro- hibited, Whether there will be any Government action at the next ses- sion of the Legislature remains to be sceli. In the meantime gift! samples of margarine seem to ho the forerunner of the hope that tho product. Will be placed on the con- stimcr tables of this Province. There is no cheese now available for export purposes.

Every farmer in this Province who has an litters-st. in his returns and his future should study this aub- ject and be prepared to supply con- structive ideas on t-hls important development.
