under discussion, was Can The World
Be Fed, Mr. Gordon Wilkinson acted
as Chairman bringing put the facts
that the Canadian Government should
stress quality more than quantity of
products so as to try and keep a future
market, If a surplus of Farm Products
should result through increased pro-.
duction, The Government should keep
their eyes open and see• that products
Are disposed of before prices have to
fall to low levels. We do not think
food should be rationed in Canada,
After the immediate Post war emer-
gency, Jim Coultes reported that the
shower for Mr. and Mrs. Sam Pletch
was a success with over one hundred
dollars donated to help furnish their
house which was destroyed by fire. It
was decided to apply through the Fed-
eration of Agriculture to send thirty
in a group to Stratford Packing plant
to see the grading and cutting of pork,
sometime the latter part of May. Mr.
Martin ,Grasby reported that Mr.
Thomas of the O.A.C., Guelph, would
be in the Foresters Hall, Belgrave,
March 25th in the afternoon, to speak
on Soils, Fertilizers and Pastures. A
cordial invitation is extended to all
farmers in the district to attend this
meeting. The minutes were read and
adopted by Robert Yuill, seconded by
Jim Coultes. After which progressive
euchre was played with Mr. Charles
Coultes and Mrs. Howard Wilkinson
won the highest score. After which
lunch was served of sandwiches and
coffee.
CERTIFIED POTATO
SEED INFORMATION
The regulations affecting the pro-
duction and sale of certified seed pot-
atoes in Canada are extensive, and,
for the information of growers and
others connected with the industry, a
copy of the complete regulations may
be obained from the Plant Protection
Division, Dominion Department of
Agriculture, Ottawa, or from the dist-
rict seed potato inspectors in the sev-
eral provinces.
The cerification of potatoes for seed
purposes in Canada is carried out en-
tirely by the Plant Protection Division.
Staffs are employed in each province,
varying in accordance with acreage en-
tered for certification. The regula-
tions are uniformly administered
throughout thOcountry, Certification
involves the examination of the grow-
ing crops at least twice during the sea-
son, an examination of the tubers at
harvest and at shipping time, and the
issuance of ags to each grower to at-
Leh to the containers, The containers
used comprise bags, barrels and crates,
According to the regulations, 'no
potatoes may be sold for seed unless
duly certified.

BREAKAGE OF EGGS
LOSS TO FARMERS
Breakage is the greatest single
cause of loss in marketing eggs in
Canada., Greater shell strength is
needed, It is not a matter only of the
loss on the cracked or broken eggs
themselves but the loss in value of
other eggs and packing material
through smearing. ,There is also the
unknown loss at point of production,
n the nests, in gathering, and in hand-
ling on the farm, and in the consumer's
Homes, according to a survey made by
the Dominion Department of Agile-
Oture,
It is not a question of whether egg
shells are weaker now than before the w ar, but just a plain statement of
fact that present egg shells are not
sufficiently strong to withstand the H azards of transportation. Trains are
Heavier, jolts are more severe, and
tandling less careful. Something has
o be done now to improve shell
s trength, Selection breeding, feeding
an all be brought to bear, It is some-
t hing in WW1 all phases of the inchist•
y can take part. Eggs with thin por-
ous should not be used for set.
