Fort-uno Bridge Cllrlstlnos Concert

The Christmas Concert oi Fort- une Bridge school was staged In the C ' Hall on P ' llth. Parents, children and teach- ers cooperated to make the affair the success that it was. The Wom- en's Institute purchased a supply of ornaments. Electric lights turn- ished by Fred and Everett Aitken added the finishing touches. '

Santa arrived in tip-top form, and Dresented gifts and treats to over sixty children. Mr. Harry Burke acted as chairman in his usual ef- ilcient manner. and Mrs. Charles Aitken provided piano music for the various numbers.

Let's Talk It Over

Much has been written about the failure to satisfy the needs of the brilliant pupil in the school. and we hasten to agree that there is probably much potential ability not adequately developed in the class- room.

But at the other end of the scale there is also very often a need for reform. ,We refer to the plodd- ing pupil who gets pualled along

for over his bewildered head in the educational whirlpool that be is rarely able to come up for air.

Of course. if you ask him. he'll probably tell you he'd rather be in Grade X then in Grades Vii or VIII where he belongs. He's with his old associates. for one thing. and also there is a certain prestige attached to belonging to the upper brackets. Demotlng him would dis- please him greatly. and even per- haps offend his parents. if they do not understand the situation. But sending him back to his proper level would be a favor to him just the same.

PROTEIN FOR MINK

Robert Lalor. M.S., nutritionist -with the liegcr Products Company of North St. Paul, Minnesota, writes on the significance of pro- tein in mink ration: It is true that no one essential nutrient is any more important basically than another because all must be pre- sent in the right proportions for adequate nutrition. However, in practical feeding one nutrient such as protein may take on more ap- parent significance because of sun- Pill. cost or other factors. '

Most practical mink rations are high in protein in comparison to

nutrient. For example, a ration con- sisting of 20 percent horse meat, 85 percent fish. 15 percent tripe. 10 , A liver and. 20 percent cereal contains about 41 percent protein on a dry matter basis (about 17. percent on wet basis). Compare this to the actual require- ment of from 22 to 20 percent too dry basis) for growing mink be- tween ihe ages of 7 and 16 weeks. Mink from 16 weeks of age to maturity appear to require 16 to 2.2 percent protein on a dry basis These requirements have been published by Bassett.

While the above requirements ay not be high enough for maxi- mum siorage of nitrogen, they are blgh enough for normal fast growth. Since the average mink ration is very high in protein it is easily understood why we should not be too concerned about a certain pro- duct being I or 2 percent lower ln protein than another.

AVAILABILITY

More important is the availabil- ity and quality of that protein. This is a significant consideration with pnokins house by-products. There are differences in the amino acid composition! of the proteins in the Hvornl by-products being offered mink ranchers. A byvproduct con- Ililing 15 vlroont in with little or no connective ssuo and grisalo would make better mink food than another by uct containing 17 or is perccn protein with i '

COSTS As our readers are aware, Pre- mier J. R. Smnllwood. whoso fore- sight has been the reason why Newfoundland is becoming great industrially, saw the possibilities of mink farming on a large scale in the Whithurn locality. it is near this place that the pot-head whales mentioned above are harvested, so concessions were given and a large building erected which serves the purpose of a central kitchen where thousands of pounds of whale meat are ground daibv. mixed with cereals and delivered to the mihk farmers.

it is a cooperative project of which George MacNcill is presid- ent. The feed averages less than five cents per pound and that means that mink can be more

economically produced there than us

any part of the United States or Canada. The total cost of pr uc- lng a mink runs from I10. to 12. in Fort Qu”Appelie the average was 314.50.

Last November the mink colony had a visit from George H. Mayors of the American Fox Auctions. N. Y. Mr. Mayers is well known to all fox and mink farmers throughout the United States and Canada. He has made several visits to this pro- vince and has acted as judge at big shows in Western Canada and at all the big shows in the United States. Knowing that he was com- ing a Field Day was arranged with exhibits of mink from all the ranches. He was greatly interested in what Whitburn bad to show and came away most enthusiastic about the whole set up. lie was asked for his opinion of the lily of the mink and he said

we know virtually'notbl.ng about the amino acid requirements of mink. However, we ,have A fair idea based on the amounts requir- ed by other animals. There are, of course. exceptions where the mink ration does not supply excess or adequate protein. For example. where too much fat is fed food con- sumption is reduced to the point where not enough protein is con- sulllcd. A low level of fat is de- sirable for breeding and whelplng.

We had the pleasure of a visit from George MacNelli. who with his brother John is located in Whit- some 70 miles from St. Johns. Newfoundland. it will be re- membered that George brought some 750 lsred female mink by plane from Fort Qu'Appelle, Sask. to a newly constructed ranch at the above place. There was a tremend- ous lot of difficulty about this op- eration as the mink had to be moved by truck several hundred

The MacNelli ranch was greatly enlarged last fall and i,-100 females were retained for breeding pur- poses and 600 more are being flown in so that in a few weeks there will be upwards of 2.000 and if they have the same average increase as last year production will be in the vicinity of 8.000.
