" Duties oLIfroducets

The most important industry on Prince Edward ‘Island today is dairying and up to the present time it has lacked a department oi pub- liclty or education. The necessity oi snch a step is appoliingly great lol- the instruction oi our people in tile food values of dairy products. and in the Jpartfthese essential foods play in the building of strong and healthy ‘individuals. The story must be toldulnevery institution and home in our land. and must. be told over and over again until we have a people who fully understand this great truth. ' ‘ To do a profitable business any manufacturing concern must not only make a good article but they must create a liking for their pro- duct with the general publlc."l‘his holds good in dairying as wall as any other class of manufacture; therefore the duty devolves upon the daiary man of today making him- self acquainted with all the ‘good qualities of the product, and to be sbie to preach this ‘gospel to his customers, the general public. Someone has said that the best 8d- vcrtisement any firm can have is satisfied customers; then, taking this as the initial stop to bigger and better things, let us who are nlakilm our living from the dairy cow, see to'it that we have nothing but satisfied customers. as these are the kind of people from whom come the duplicate orders and bet- ter prices. Do not let us neglect I0 take every precaution to ‘have the output of our factories of the, highest standard for eillciency. ‘Lott lls see ‘that. first we have mach- inery equipped in such a way that we will be producing at a gain", , by that, ll mean let us only iced the best cows-we can get, in the most modern ‘ and" tlplto-dnié‘ way", and then with th-ls properly equipped plant let us produce_ only the best. Quality up to the milking time is safe, but between milking and the time our products reach the public is where the loss comes in. lf we then make~a determined effort to only send away from our farms a first class milk, cream or butter we are going a long way toward making these satisfied customers, and oi creating a ‘better understand- ing between producer and consum- 9i’. ihleans to this end would he, first: strict cleanliness with all our ma-

Tlhelant-bs were Judged and then offered at suction. lBoioresold, the stock was divided _into market grades. The choice lambs were offered iflret, and as the highestbld was not equal to the reserve pfice of the sales committee, the lambs were withdrawn. Aitor discussing the matter with representatives oi the Dominion and Ontario (Depart- ments of Agriculture, the commit- tee decided to ship the lambs to Toronto. The reserve bid was 10c per pound, weights to be taken at ilhe conclusion of the Fair. lt was necessary to drive the lambs a dis- tance of eighteen miles before loud- ing at iPel-th. These lambs were driven twelve miles on Saturday, rested over iSu-nday on pasture, completed the trip on Monday and were loaded that evening, reaching Toronto on Tuesday at midnight. They were sold in Toronto on Wed- nesday at noon. The average shrinkage was only 7 lbs. per head, very low on lambs that had receiv- ed no gain whatever.

iIn culling the flock, particular at- tention muat be paid to the old ewes; ewes with defective teeth or

have showln themselves indifferent breeders or poor mothers. These should be discarded, and the best ewe lambs should be kept, and be- cause ofthe tendency for like to produce like, preference should be given to twin lambs and to lambs from ewes which have proved them- selves good breeders and mothers. The ram used for the flock should be the best obtainable, and bot'il ram and ewes should he fed liber- ally so that they will be in thrifty condition at the time of breeding.

Tile ram should be taken i-rom the flock in August and put in a fair pasture. He should be given a grain ration oi’ about one poundl of grain, preferably oats, each day. The ewes should have ‘their tails clipped before putting the ram with them. The ram should be marked with red och-re on the breast so that records can be kept oi the sheep which are bred. Dur- ing the breeding season the _ ram should get a liberal grain ration to keep him in good thrifty condition.
