This is of course the crux of the situa- tion, about which the Provinces thus dis- criminated against have been complaining all along.

The railways are hit in two ways by their most formidable modern competitors. the trucks. They lose a substantial volume. of business outright. and to retain the bal- ance they must charge less than would otherwise be the case, having regard to'the mounting post-war costs of labor and ma- terials.

POTATO BOARD DEFENDED

Sir.- There have been some ex- pressions of unfavorable opinion about the Potato Marketing Board recently, and I feel that its sup- porters should bc heard from, Pos- sibly the most. outstanding blast against the Board was that of Mr. R. Victor Ininan. appearing in this column on September 27th. Mr. In- man contends that the Board did nothing during the period of poor prices when the 1950 crop was be- ing sold and "went to sleep" when the 1951 crop was being marketed.

The fact is that. if it. wcrenft for the Island Board, in co-operation run the New Brunswick Board, set.- ting prices as high as conditions at the time would permit, Island farmers would have received only a meagre fractloii of the pitiful n- mouni. they got. for their 1950 crop. It is common kiicrledge that. when the 1951 crop was being marketed, our Board's activities were curtail- ed because its rights were being questioned in the courts.

The Potato Marketing Board paid its way many times over in the 1950-51 season and will do so a- galn. Some of the potato dealers are knocking the Boiirdln the hope that they will destroy it and thus bring they will have the farmers at thei: mercy. Let us farmers not be- grudgc the Board the money it needs to carry on its work on our behalf.

Farmers should kick this thing out of existence before it has ti chance to ruin the industry.

MORE l;l'-lCItMATl0NA;vi'ANTED

Sir,-I am very pleased to have the opportunity of answering Mr. Charles Yeo's letter in Monday's Guardian. I believe in this way we will bring things out which in some cases the Federation don't want their members to find out.

Before answering any of his ouestlons I would like to point out that it is my wish to establish 1!. public killing plant for livestock not a packing plant. As Mr. Yea

.1lves near the Summersidc muni-

cipal plant he should understand the difference in them. In the case of a custom killing plant. killing is usually done on a fixed rate of charges for different types of animals: while in the case of a packing plant. they kill and cure meals. but usually do not custom kill livestock for the pub- lic. .

In answer to question No. 1 "De- fine moral support" - this is about the 10th time I have defln-l ed it for him. Support of this. type is of it moral nature only and not material or pertaining l.o money; it is asking nothing off them only their moral backing that what I venture to do will be re- cognized by them as in the best interest of all. Further it is ask- ing them not to speak or work against me, but rather in general to speck on my behalf or on be-

PFIREGRINATING EDITOR

I

A popular fisure in early Island newspaper days was Mr. J. H. Fletcher. who established the "Is- land Arirus" in 1869 and edited it capably until 1882 when he took over the "Record." Mr. Fletcher travelled extensively as a lecturer and was known in this capacity. as well as for his gargantuan physique. far beyond the bounds of his native Province. In this con- nection The Examiner of June 1883 quoted the following item from the t'Gothlc Record." of cop- per Creek. California:

"On Monday the bridge across Copper Creek shook and groaned under the ponderous weight of 215 pounds avoirdupoia of a Prince Edward Island lecturer. He came on foot for the reason that no one in Crested Butte had a horse that would carry double."

The "Colorado 5 inss weekly Republic." quoting the above ex- cerpt, added in a more kindly vein: ”Thls means that the large-bod- led. large-brained and large-soul- ed editor of the "Record." Mr. .T. H. Fletcher, has arrived from his Prince Edward Island. home."

invested in the enterprise?

On many occasions I have ask- ed Mr. Yeo to take a vote at some of the meetings over this plant question. How many did he take? He even tried to tell me in a meeting last April that no vote was ever taken in Queen's Coun- ty or Kings County - I saw votes taken at Hunter River and Cardigan and noticed the farmers voting 100 per cent in favor of a plant.

Now Mr. Yeo claims I never showed them my plans. would be please explain why he told me in his own yard in Summerside, that he "did not want to hear or see my plans unless the Government had nothing to offer". After be- lng politely brushed off I remind- ed hlni who he thought were the shippers, the Government or the shippers themselves. so the red- eriitlon group held a meeting with the Government: after that the Government. called two meetings and selected a certain group of shippers to the meeting. At the first. meeting the plant question was decided upon: at the sec- ond meeting the Federation re- fused morai support. on behalf of R joint move to ascertain more facts over a subsidy. If he thinks I am wrong on these statements, let him kindly publish the min- utes of these meetings. ,

POTATO GROWEBB' LICENSES

sir. - I have observed through

half of my problem. since it re- lates to farming.

In his case and that of the Fed- eration they refused to give any moral support on behalf of a Joint move by Government ship- pers, etc.. to approach Ottawa to see if a subsidy was available for the construct. on of a plant. Other Provinces clam that this type of money is available for part costs. so why can't the Federation back a move. If a fisherman wanted to get a subsidy on the construc- tion of a. ,dragger, would the Fish- eries refuse him any moral sup- port?

Question No. 2: "How is the business to be organized and op- erated" Mr. Yco need not pro- fess himself as not knowing be- cause she knows we are organizing as private enterprise but intend to do custom killing of divestock for the public at a fixed rate of charges, and he was informed the Federation could place directors on the plant board snd they would have a any in the setting of charges. I wonder if he knows the summerslde stea. and if he does, kindly publis them. i

Question No. 3: "What control will the farmers mm" This is fairly well answered in question

By 0 HOME THOUGHTS ON

For the nut time in my life I have attended a Plowing Match and I can only xesret that I had not taken in the event long before this. There was. much to see. The fine cattle and horses, the rows

the skill of the plowmcn. the ap- parent enthuslasm of farmers and their! families.

These things were quite enough to make the" afternoon interesting and profitable. But there was something else even more import- ant. I refer to the stimulation of thought which came to me as I walked leisurely over the grounds. For here, it seemed to me, was the very essence of Island life. the deep. imponderable something which distinguishes this commun- ity from all other places I have known.

From the-Premier to the young- est; farm hand there was plainly evident; a clean healthy pride in what the Island can mean to one's life and culture. a. strength that only a pastoral way of life can be- stow and sustain. It must. be the hope of everyone who loves this bit of land that that way will never be allowed to wither under the pressure of big industrial act- ivity. Heavy industry has its part to play-s prominent and useful part. too-in our complex modern world, but this is not the setting

for it

too

No doubt when "Plowing Match- es" were -Hrlt thought up the des- ignation was appropriate. Now, however. when many other inter- esting thlngs besides plowing are featured. it seems to be a bit. out of place. My own suggestion for a proper description would be "Farmei-3' Day" and. considering the agriculturaliemphasis in our economy, it might well be pro- claimed a provincial statutory holiday. Since farmers undoubt- edly make up the bulk of our population it is only right and proper that one day in the year should be set. aside in their hon- our. 1': would mean one big event

told that I cannot sell my small Mountain seed for less than 31.80 per bushel when the dealer tells me all the market will warrant is 32.00 per cwt. '

There is R feeling among some that a lot of animosity exists be- tween the potato growers of this Province and the potato dealers but I do nob agree that this is general. It would appear. though. that some friction does exist be- tween the potato dealers and the potato marketing board under its present set up and possibly this friction is quite Justified.

I recently sat in on a conversa- tion which included a few farm- ers and 8. potato dealer and frankly I was amazed with some of the statements. some of which I believe are facts. One grower favored the floor price and felt; it has already put. the" market an the upward trend. He looks at the 81.10 floor of September, 1951 and the s2.00 per bushel price reached in less than two months following it. He feels that on the same basis this year the present sl.95 floor should reach 33.50 per bushel by November 10, 1952. He only regretted that the board did

so that we would have a 34.00 per bushel market before frost danger. Surely no one would agree on such logic. After hearing the discussion I agree that the public should have knowledge of how the public funds entrusted to the board have been spent.

I am convinced that a properly balanced potato board composed of a few dealers. a number of which were successful farmers, along with a good representation of interested groweit. could work along harmoniously and in the best interests of this vitally im- portant industry.

I have been closely associated with some of the dealers and have found them very reliable and if it was not for the assistance I re- ceived through them in the past, I would not have any potatoes to sell this year nor would many others. I have confidence in these men and when my crop is ready for market and the danger of frost exists I certainly will not waste my time or money phoning any board regarding price or as- sistance. I will sell my potatoes to best advantage, as in the put. No. let us keep striving for that Utopia. but we are now at the fork in the road and poor guid- ance sending us even a few miles to the left will definitely result

in disaster. I am. Sir, etc.. PRINCE COUNTY FARMER.
