Quota System E plalned The quota system as it worked in other Provinces was explained by Mr. Lincoln Dewar. secretary of the Provincial Peder-ation. In some sections the quota of the crop depends upon his number of acres of land and in others the size of the crop he has planted or sowed. The registration of the grower will eliminate all undesirable part- ies in the production of potatoes. it was explained. The first qualif- ication is that the applicant must be a bona fida farmer. Mr. Roland MacDonald, south. port stated that it would be to the farmers advantage if they never received a support price this year. "If we have to take the potatoes down,to the wharf and dump them and get the gamblers out of the business we would be a lot better off", he stated. Messrs. D. A. MacDonald, Glen- flnnan and E. D. Reid, Chairman and Manager of the Potato Mark- eting Board respectively reviewed the work of the board to data and outlined policies for the betterment of the industry. The meeting commended” the ef- forts of the Potato Marketing Board and urged that they con- tinue their representations to the authorities concerned for the sat- isfactory solution of the potato problem.
