In the absence of detailed in- formation we are perhaps tak- jing a risky venture in commen- iting on the federal proposal to ‘increase “the “support price” 6 # butter. | First of all we, had the impres- ‘sion that may be incorrect that ithis change is conditional upon Ontario and Quebec getting their market structure on the ‘same level. This would either imean Ontario putting in a sub- isidy. provincially or Quebec tak- jing theirs off, a situation which lappears to have some of the as- ‘pects of a poker game for Mes- jsrs. Stewart and Vincent. | In a general way we think ithere should be some misgivings lover the trend on the part of the provinces to get into the stabi- ilizaion or price suppor field. In the long run it is suggested ithat the best interests of -the ldairy industry will be served by leaving his area of -endeavour ‘strictly to the Federal people ‘and having the provinces use ithe money which they may have ‘availéble for other purposes. If lthe two big dairy provinces. On-

on machinery and _ electrical matters, the latter particularly. . Farm beautification, landscap- ing, wind breaks and a general approach to making the entire province an agricultural park holds possibilities.

Much valuable information contained in numerous farm pub- lications if examined by a com- petent person for items of parti- cular interest and value to our farmers, could be combined in- to a type of Farm Réader’s Di- gest. -

Finally the farm appears te be in need of a Livestock Exten- sion Service operating in Cton- junétion® with public . veterinar- ians and Al technicians. BUTTER PRODUCTION,

_ While there may be some dis- tortion in the figures butter pro- duction for the week ending Sep- tember 3 fell to 132,000 pounds as compared with 163,000 for the same period last year. ‘We suspect that this is probably the smallest production for_a great meny years and this fact should cause for con- cern. We have a market for butter and there is much to. be said for catering to it.

NEW BUILDINGS . :

Adjacent to the highway over which -we travel daily between farm and office a number of new farm buildings are being constructed. These include po- tato storages, hog barns and dairy barns and in practically every case the roof is of the curved rafter type built up from boards four inches wide. These rafters are then strapped: -with two by fours and mietal~* roofs then ladid.-This type of building is becoming very popular. an its advantages appear to be the use of readily available lumber of the cheaper~ kind; boards: and: two by fours, the absence of any heavy timber keeps down e x- pense, further advantage is the fact that these buildings can be quite rapidly constructed. Our feeling is that the farmer plan- ning a building for practically any purpose should consider the advantage of this type of con- struction.

MILK SUBSIDY

Quite frequently we are ask- ed about the milk and butterfat payments from Ottawa. We know that payments are being made and being received but so far as information about indivi- dual cases it is difficult to get anything definite. ‘ Holdups are probably the re- sult of three factors: (a) ‘The tremendous volume of settle- ments to be handled, (b) Delay. on the part of plants in report.’ ing and (c) Lack of registra: | tion by producers. : ‘ FEED ASSISTANCE

- One of the matters discussed at the meeting pertained to the Electric Safety League. It was brought out that a budget was set aside by the Electric League for the purpose of sending train- ed people to speak to any. group or organization: on the safety of electricity or any other matter pertaining to electricity. It was also ‘stated that a $10 prize would be offered to any group or organization in™ each county where by the individuals in each group runs a safety check on the electric equipment on his or her property. The group with the highest average of safety would get the $10 prize for their organ- ization. :

Dr. Kenneth Parker. of the District School Board. stated Wednesday afternoon that the

Another example of -the in- crease also, is that although 211 Grade 10 students were _trans- ferred from Queen Charlotte to Colonel Gray Senior High, - the drop in the total attendance at Queen Charlote is only 54.

The drop in the St. Jean Ele- menary total is due“tt'xthe. fact that .theGfadé’7"'“diris were ransferred to Birchwood Junior High School. Two auxiliary clas-
