J. R. Nelson ltitrrDonad. Unit- ed Church Il/iinlstcr‘ at Baddeck Forks, Cape _ Breton at Rotary Luncheon yesterday. A large num- ber of delegates to the Farmers Convention wure present, Rev. Mr. lttiucDonald said that despite press 1‘('p01'i..s'. the full tide of prosperity has not yet come round the comer. We are living in strange and rClilllllgillg times. It is worth while in be alive today. We are witnesing the making of a new social orrfer. After referrrlrbg to the unsatisfact- ory conditions in the world, he stressed the innlportarice of co-oper- ation in this adult education move- ment. It is not true, and never will be true, that iiarmers can get along without being leducalcd. There is no class in the world who daerves more respect than the man-Who toils with his hands. If we are ever gbingto build a uiorld right. said the speaker, the interests . of the primary producers must be considered. Rev. Mr. ‘MacDonald strongly disagreed with the contention made by the late Walter James. the well known Dfiyclwlbcist. who said that "outside of their own ideas. the ideas gained bjy men under the age of 25 are the only ideas they will ever have. ‘flirty cannot get any- thing new. Diisinlerestcd curiosity ls past. Mental‘ grooves and chan- nels are set. The power of asslmu- lation has gone" To disprove that doctrine, the ipreaker told mnong other things the story of lbormer tn Grwsboro County. In this small village the people who foninerly had practically no education and who had ideas bn'y about fishing, even svhen they reached the ago of 60 to 65. learned to read and write intelligently. and started a co-olplzrative lobster fac- bory and store. v Although we may not learn to teach an old dog new tricks, we can teach old rneri new tricks, said the speaker.

As you will note the lower grade eggs are higher than necessary, there being 27ft Grade B and C eggs. cracked and burr. eggs which were .7371. and .4211.- respectively. In checking this high 1 percentage of undergrade eggs. the Management states that. most oi this is carelessness in the way of housing and methods of handling eggs before being taken by the col- . lectors. Although these condi- tions are existing and have exist- ed in the past. we feel it 'is time when some method of curtailing this state of affairs should be tak- en up by’ the delegates assembled here today. One means of corny batting this evil, would be to pa; bonus on the number of dozens r of top grade eggs. l-lowcver, we ‘ will leave this matter with the _ meeting for discussion. 40,000 dozen Increase In summing up the yieoris activi- ties, it is pleasing to note that ‘lthere has been an increase oi l some 40.000 dozens over the previ- ous year which was brouy about by increases in thirty-four Circles.

Live Poultry ft Live poultry was handled to somewhat greater extent than for ‘ merly and was brought about 1 mainly by your efforts at. our last annual meeting in asking the Provincial Government to take more interest in Poultry work May we publicly- thunk l-fon. Mr. Dennis and his Government for helping in this work, there boiur; two men sent l0 the Coirnlry do- ing flock culling york besides studying the general conditions of the province. This work. was more or less guided by the Miln- ugement of your" Association who also had men at this work at dif- ferent intcrvnls resulting iii the; culling out oi’ many non-producing birds, thereby making a real sziv- ing in feeding problems so ncrcs- sary to the members at large. Till!~' 1 work was not completed us it was too great to finish up owing to lateness of the season and barf roads. but is anticipated tlrzit. dur- ing the Summer months this work will be again taken up and coin- pleted. The total number of birds culled was something over 49,000 by Government graders and 18,000 by your own organization. Owing to the poor qualify offer- ed. the management did not. fuel; justified in shipping this 110-1111)’ alive as it would command a very poor price, and not in line with ~ killed and graded. live poultry sliippetl in former years‘ from this Province.

Prices paid were on a basis of 12c for best grade live fowl during this period. Dressed poultry was handled to a somewhat greater extent than in the previous year but owing to lower prices and higher feed costs. the percentage of milkfcd was not as high as 1935. Prices paid over the year varied considerably and ranged from 23c per lb. top price in January i936 to 16c per lb. for the same class of poultry in the latter part of December. The high price paid last season caused a serious curtailment in consump- tion with the result that dealers were compelled to lower their prices and pay less during the season just. ended. Paying prices by the Association were on a basis 0t’ 18c until December 10th. 17c to December 21st, 16c during the rest of the period. Increased snlc of bmby chicks caused an moi-ease in poultry, resulting in more poul- try to be marketed which no doubt has caused the above fluctuations in price.

The stock used was mostly from Experimental Farm Station and some other choice flocks approv- ed by the Federal Department of Agriculture. ' Feeds were also handled during the year to a much greater extent than it has ever been in the past. The extreme scarcity of various kinds of feeds necessitated branch- ing out and taking in more variety. This would be a good asset to your Association if supported by the members in a co-ogmerative way. The uncertainty of mixing raw materials is increasing the de- mand for prepared feeds more es- pecially in the case of chickens. and poultry in general resulting in carlot orders of feed now. where at one time orre-hundred bag ship- ments were considered heavy. Al- though conditions would appear that poultry profits are diminish- ing through high feeding costs, we still maintain that it is the per- sistcnt producer that get results. In reviewing the activities of the pnst season in comparison with the years o6 lowest depres- sion, there has been a general up- ward swing in the price of eggs rising from the low point of ap- proximately 12 l-2c per dozen to 18 l-2c which seems to indicate that the producer that is holding steady is bound to make a. profit. We would urge the members to in comparison to other farming activities. Again, to assure our organiza- tion of any measure of successco- operation must be on the basis ot quality as well as volume. Quality to increase the efficiency in hand- ling and volume to decrease th overhead expenses. “ It is interesting to note the in- creased interest taken in co-opera- tron throughout many communities in the Maritime Provinces, and may we look forward to a con- rdciuible recovery and improve- nr-nt in our Association for 1937. In conclusion. your Directorate zgiliu convey their thanks w the tarinus officials of the Depart- ncnts of Agriculture, both Federal and Provincial, for the help they have given us also the Press and to you. one and all, for your loyal ‘upper-l. during the past. season.

As already mentioned in the Director's Report and to keep be- fore your minds the necessity of lnuidliug our products. profitably, we again stress the importance of cnrcfulness at point of production. The percentage of bad eggs be- ing about one-half of one ps1‘ cunt. is entirely too high and means that it is costing the mem- bers approximately $12500 Per yenr from the Associations’ stand- point, not considering the collect- ing costs. Of more importance is the quantity of under-grade eggs.

This means l difference of $8720.00 or a will O1 $10,000.00 when we add the dif- fcrcnce in vnlue and bad eggs to- gether.

And still there were people who declared that wages were not a problem of the church. It most certainly was. be- cause it was the duty of the church to uplift humanity. According to statements from co-operative stores there was little spread between the manager's sal- ary and that of other hellp. In the cnse of a large manufacturing con- cern in Canada the average wage of employees was less than $600 a year and at the same time the manager was getting more than 8200.000 a year. Economic Set-up (hanging The economic set up of the world W86 011111101116. civilization itself was changing rapidly, and it was a question of whether people in Can- ada were going to sit back and wait to awaken some day with a revolution, which would perhaps result in greatly curtailed liberty; or whether they were going tobulld up an improved economic struct- ure where the primary producers would get together and the bene- fits of communism would result without its disadvantages.
