At present, even with o. large number of hogs outside the desired weights, this prim covers about 85 per cent c! all our mark- ct hogs. On hogs which grade "B1" dressing 135-175 lbs. the bonus is $2.00. This is roughly 1 1-3 cents per pound and makes the total re- turns of this grade somewhere bo- tween l'! 1-3 to 1'1 5-6 to the fann- er on the hot dressed weight. About 80 per cent of ollr market hogs grade "A" and "Bl". Thus the Federal bonus, even without any increase in quality will apply to a very large percentage.

The new policy makes a differ- ence of $2.00 between grade "A" and grade "B" hogs. This bonus should be sufficient to encourage farmer; to pay much more atten-

Summersme tion to the factors which produce v“:”,fiw the too grade l r ll Costly

Carelessneas in weights now is a ‘serious matter. If a hog dresses over 1'10 lb; up to 1'15 lbs, or un- deg 140 lbs. down to 135 lbs-. the shipper will lose at least $2.00. If a. hog yields 1'18 to 18d lbs. or l2": to 184 lbs.. the shipper loses $4.00 or even more on the higher weights. Hogs which drem over 185 lbs. up to 195 lbs will be graded heavy. This reduces the weight for this grade from the former maxi- mum of zos lbs. Now all hogs over 10s lbs. will be graded extra heavy. Col. Llwellyn, the British Minister of Food, recently stated in Ottawa that Canada must reduce the per- centage of overweight Wiltshire sides if we plan to maintain our e-lfiiort. bacon trade. This applies to

weighing over lbs. Hogs dressing under 140 lbs one very undesirab‘ for the export as well as for the domestic trade. In order to make a hog eligible for the $4.00 premium and bonus, it must dress between 140 and 1'10 lbs. inclusive. This is equivalent to 195 to 220 lbs. live weight fasted over night. In some cases, even 220 lb. hogs may oe a bit too heavy.

A hog dressing 140 lbs. 16 cents will bring $23.40 plus $4.130 if grade "A". a total of $26.40. A hog dressing ‘n! lbs. at I6 cents will Xgglrn only $20.80 less a fifty cent

Allllllll "Qdtlllg Finish is a factor that calls for

of more attention Over fat hogs are United Ohuroh

appears too heavy feeding when the pigs are under four month,‘ is the common cause of excessive finish. Hogs on self feed- ing of the Kensington United Church which took Place in the Assembly Hall of the church on Tuesday evenings, January 18th..

The total amount raised by the Kensirlgton congregation alone, during the year, was $210.73. 0f this amount $1,354.80 was raised and given to missionary purposesI of the church.

The chairman then ex- prusedhis deepest gratitude to the _

Increased activities were planned IOr the coming year.

A group of nine breeders who imported the grand champion bull, Brampton Jester standard 11 were commended for bringing such high class stock to the Isl- and.‘ This bull is a full brother of the leading Jersey sire in the Unit- ed States so the breeders are look- ing forward to gratifying results in the improvement of their herds.

To comply with the request of thy Provincial Department of Ag- riculture a census of the pure bred Jersey cattle on the Island will be taken by the Associati .
