Prince sand armor! have for many years mm high honors at the various fairs and exhibitions both at home "3 gm-osd but this marks the ant time a world championship in” come to our Island. Mr. S. A. MacAulay of East Baltic. King's County, won the coveted trophy with an entry of Katahdin seed ipotroeltst classes at the "Royal" T e D0 0 we" judged by Dr. smith of Cor- neu University. Ithica, New York, gnu Mr. J. L. MacLaren, Chief seed Potato Inspection Service. lottetown. Austin Scales. who acted as . chairman. introduced Mr. Mac- .l.aren who spoke briefly on the potato show at Toronto. He stated that P.E.l. had twenty-five entries , of Red potatoes. two were damag- ed in transit. but the remaining twenty-three won prizes. many of them firsts. This year for the first time entries from P.E.l. were ex- hibited in the 4-H competition and two entries from the 0'1-e8l'Y P0- tatu Club won a first and a fifth placing. The Department of Agri- culture extends -its congratulations to the club and the Club leader. Mr. Alton Rayner.

N0 TABLE STOCK ENTRIES

Mr. MacLaren lamented the fact that there were no table stock en- tries but hoped that next year there would be at least fifty en- tries by P. E. I. farmers.

Mr. W. R. Shaw. Chairman of the Potato Section of the Cana- dian Horticultural Council spoke at some length on the history of the trophy and the honor which Mr. MacAulay had won both for himself and the farmers of the province. Mr. Shaw then presented the magnificent trophy and I check for 5100.00 donated by the Canadian Horticultural Council,

SMALL SEED PROSPECT!

The supply of clover seed (red and alsike) in Canada should be somewhat greater than last year. although the production of red clover seed was estimated to be 10 per cent below that of the 10- year average. Alsike will be plenti- ful but the production of alfalfa seed was even lower than last year. the smallest crop since 1030 ac- cording to a report from tthe Plant Products Division. Ottawa.

The production of timothy seed this year in Canada was almost double the 10-year average. The greatest increase in production took place in the Maritime Prov- ices where the crop is reported to be two and one-half times that of last year, and over four times the 10-year average.

The price offered for timothy this fall has been indicative of the large supply of seed. As a result of the low price very little of the crop has been moved. For fann- ers planning to market their seed crop in the spring it is essential that they do not delay cleaning it up and getting a purity and germ- ination test by the Plant Products Division at Sackvllle. Seed of any crop cannot be advertised for sale unless it has this test. if leaning and testing is left until spring it

Cleaning facilities in Prince Ed- ward Island are not adequate to remove daisy and stitchwort seed from timothy. and unless the sam- ple is practically free from these seeds to basin with it is very dif- Ilcult to get it up to grade. The nearest location of an up-to-date seed-cleaning plant is at Has-tland N.B.. and owned by the Carleton County Seed Growers Co-op- ii a group of farmers wished to make up a shipment to this plant the manager return sufficient clean seed for their own use and buy the remainder. or if the far- mer wishes. return all of the clean seed. in any case prompt action is advisable.

MANAGING CREAM PATRON

The management of the cream patron involves the sucessful sol- ution of the following important problems: i. The creamery must satisfy the patron with the price he is offered for his butierfat in order to successfully solicit his business. In the long run the policy that will produce the best results is that of consistently paying the highest price in harmony with ex- isting market conditions and max- imum efficiency of operation. 2. The creamery must secure the patrons confidence in its honesty and integrity In order to maintain his patronage. This is accomplish- ed by honest and accurate weights and tests. He also makes sure that the patron is given the benefit of the doubt in the case of controver- 8!! where is no intenttlon of dis- honesty on the part of the patron. 8. The creamery must interest him in his business in order to induce him to produce more cream and to improve its quality.

4. The creamery must educate the patron in larger. more econ- omical and more profitable pro- duction. It should teach him to produce more pounds of butterfat per cow at less cost per pound. It should emphasize such care in production to insure top returns for the cream. The average patron ap- preciates such lnformation even if it is not new to him. He needs con- firmation of his knowledge in order to put it in use with confidence and maximum sucess. 5. The fundamental lesson of better care of cream must include cream grading and paying on the bases of quality at the factory. In the

4 absence of quality paying attempts to accomplish permanent cream improvement on the farm are fut- THE FRITTER FLY y

The Fritier Fly wui get you if you don't watch out: Everyone knows about the house fly. the sand fly and the horse fly. Farmers have to spray cattle for an insect called the warble fly. The fritter fly is among these common pests and yet is all too often completely ignored.

No one can afford to ignore these insect pests as they all cost money. The fritter fly, however, costs far- mers more than all the others put together. For the fritter fly just quietly but steadily eats up profits. It takes money out of your pockets before you get it there. Could you say in dollars and cents how much it costs you in feed and labor to keep a flock of 100 hens for one year? or which kind of livestock give the highest returns per hun- dred pounds of feed? Of what is the cost per hour of tractor oper- ation on your farm? If you can answer questions such as those you will know too, how much money those 100 hens are acutally putting in your pocket in a year If one type of livestock is making more money per hundred pounds of feed than another you are no doubt getting more of the money making kind. You don't have too much trouble with the fritter fly 0" Y0ur farm If you can answer these questions.

However. all too often no one knows what is spent on feed and labor. Therefore no one can know whether the poultry, livestock or field crops industries on these farms are making or losing money for the farmer. Perhaps the cost of producing hogs is well below the price the farmer gets for them..-. he is then making money on them.. but perhaps he is losing money on the poultry he keeps. The pro- fits from the hogs look smaller be- cause they are supporting the poultry. This is where the fritter fly gets fat and keeps busy -- he is getting the profits the farmer should have. For as you know. the fritter fly is simply that invisible post that eats up profits because no one plans or organizes the spending of money.

Control methods for the fritter fly are not expensive. Keeping farm records and accounts means

He is the subject of a popular book, "Water- front Priest" and is featured in a moving picture, "On the Water- front" stsrring Marlon Brando.
