Committee chairman Charles Yeo of St. Eleanors said that they were not ready to make any recommendations yet, al- though the committee has decid- ed to launch an educational nro- gi-Im on quality and marketing. 127.: OF INCOME

During the past three years. the report indicates. the income from poultry and eggs accounted for approximately twelve per- cent of the total farm cash in- come in this province.

Ask Troops To Battle Forest Fire

ST. HILAIRE, Que. (CF) - A call for army troops to take on I stubborn bush blaze atop Mount St. Hilaire was sent Monday to Premier Duplessls. Elsewhere. other fires flared in the wake of I prolonged rainless spell.

Four towns in the St. Hilaire area about 18 miles east of Mont- real said they fear their water supply will be ruined less the army tackles the fire which has been burning for six days on the 1,300-foot mountain.

Near Ormswwn, about 40 miles southwest of Montreal, a forest fire was advancing on a two-mile front. It burned one farmhouse Sunday and poised a threat to eight or nine others if the wind sliiiit-d.

Two fires were burning in the Shcrbrooke area of the eastern townships, eating through timber stands.

of island produced eggs are consumed on the island. Naval Seotia and Quebec were the two: Mat customers. The same prov-l lnces provide the best market "if Poultry meats.

The report indicated that egg prices in this province are con- siderably lower than they are in the neighbouring provinces of Nova Seot.lI and New Bruns- wick. and below the average ilrlce in Canada. The reasons suggested Ire "the surplus quan. titles and the lower grade quali- ties of egg: in Prince Edward Island".

Prince Edward Island had I lower percentage of top grads eilizs last year than the Canadian Iverage.

DNOIN l70llltl'l' Dricm are also lower in Charlottetown than in Montreal Ind Halifax and re. semble prices in Region and Winnipeg.

The organization of the pom. '7 l'1d"1t'Y tfl this Province on strictly commercial lines would involve pronounced changes and mean much larger flock: and I very greatly enlarged output.
