BAKERJ OB BOILERS

It has been suggested in the United states that oetore too long the housewile may be able to specify and buy potatoes which are suitable either for baking or for boiling. Potatoes can be read- ily clsssiiied for these two pur- poses by being immersed in a solution of salt water for a speci- fic density. The baiting potatoes dropped to the bottom of the pot and the boilers floated on top. From thereon, it is a question at packaging the two separate-

U. I. POTATO STOCKS

Stocks of merchentable potatoes held by growers and dealers on aanuery 1, 1955 in or near pro- ducing areas are estimated at Mo.Auu.UtIU oushels, according to the Crop Reporting Board. These holdings are 10.2 million bushels or

333.000 bushels on hand January 1, 1954. These estimates of Janu- ary 1 mercnantable stocks include all potatoes available for sale at any price for table stock. seed. livestock feed. starch and other proceeding. Thus culloiits sold and to be sold at very low prices to starch plants or for livestoc- feed are included in these stocks esti- mates. The stocks estimates do not include potatoes saved for food. seed and feed for livestock on farms where grown and ex- pected losses for the entire sea- son through shrinkage. decay and waste.

HOUSE IN SESSION

Prince Edward Islanders are politically minded people and this quality produces more than aver- age interest in the proceedings of the Legislature. The elected representatives are usually close- ly in touch with the constituents and personally acquainted with practically all of them.

Our newspapers give excellent coverage of proceedings and de- bates during the Session and vot- ers have thus a good opportunity of keeping in touch with public affairs.

As. the ommunlstlc menace continues to grow in our world today. it is more and more im- portant that democratic people develop a greater interest in the mechanism which sparks " racy. The member of the Legisla- ture or the Parliament is the key man in the systems. The wisdom and judgment which is used in his election by the voters deter. mines the value of the Legisla- ture. The greater the interest on the part of the voter, the more

JUNE BET - ASIDE

The publicity management com- mittee of the Dairy Farmers of Canada in reporting to the Annual Meeting had in part the follow- ing to say. "Four Provinces. Ontario. Nova Scotia. New Bruns- wieli and Prince Edward Island made new set-aside records". Prince Edward Island made a spectacular increase in advertising fundscollected in the first years by applying the cent-a-pound for- mula.

NATIONAL DAIRY POLICY

It would require considerable space to publicize in full the var- ious resolutions passed by the Dairy Farmer's of Canada dur- ing the annual meeting at Re- gina. We will endeavour to give the substance of the most im- portant ones.

tit That the Canadian Govern- ment silow no further importa- tion I cheddar cheese as long as y products are in surplus position in this country.

(2) Protection, against imports of all dairy products from other countries.

(It) Continuation at the 581 level of the butter. support pro- gram for another two years.

til Export of 22 million pounds of butter in,a manner which will not reduce returns to producers. It wes also recommended that the Canadian Government accept responsibility in disposing of surplus stocks during any year when such becomes apparent.

I5) Adequate protection for dairy farmers against cheap im- ported oils and the products from which edible oils can be obtained.
