Moved by Jas. Brown and seconded by Mr. McClinton that we instruct our lawyers to secure the opinion of the best legal talent obtainable as to the probable success of the two suits now on hand against Oalonand the Trus Co., and that this opinion be presented ales meeting of the municipalities to be held a date later named, and that two representatives -for each munici- pality meet the lawyers and instruct them as to the wishes of the meeting and the expert engaged be satiefautory to the committee appointed.

Following the announcement which recently appeared in the press, an- nouncing that the Honourable 31r. Burrell bad initiated a comprehensive marketss propaganda in the Live Stook Branch of his Department, en explana• tion respecting the details of that policy will be tf interest., The scheme involves— 1, The Organization of an Intel. ligenoe Systema which ball provide for—(a) Statistics of Animal Popula- lation and of production -00 -opera tion with the Census Branch of the Department of 'Trade and Commerce and with the Provincial Departments of Agriculture in the collection and analysis of statistics of animal popu- lation, Gathering current, data as to the exact situation in the country respecting breeding and feeding opera• tions, the supply of feed, the condi- tion of stock, when heavy marketing may be expected, the districts from which the largest supplies may be available and the districts in which a shortage exists, (b) Information re- garding the Home Market—The col- lection of definite and reliable infor- mation regarding market demand in the several provinces of the Dominion, with particular reference' to current prices in the leading market centres and to conditions governing inter- provincial trade in meats and other live stock producte. (c) Ipformaton regarding the Foreign M ark e t,— Threugh agents of the Branclh,through the foreign service of the Department of Trade and Commerce and from such other sources as are available, the gathering of adequate statistics and data to snake possible an intelligent interpretation of trade conditions in foreign countries, exporting and im• porting, with the view of assisting our live stock interests to develop foreign trade, to adjust their operations to the requirement of foreign demand and to take advantage of such outlets as may from time to time appear for the pro- fitable sale of live stock products. (h) Distributing Information to the Pro- ducers. — The dissemination of this information to the producers in such an effective way that they may be able intelligently to anticipate market demands, to seize opportune periods for the profitable disposal' of their stock, to adjust successfully their operations to the trade situation as developed by local and foreign require- ments and to equalize production in the several provinces, thus providing against the alternate gluts and short- ages which have in the past invari- ably tended to upset trade balances and defeat the expectations of the breeders. !Fall Term From Soot. -lst. 4) CENTRA1 /; ' tth/gth/ r,.TRAi-f'Qf11., owl-, %� ' 1 drool in tho pro- ) The best Commercial c3 viuco.

The Organization of Farmers for Co-operative Action in the Sale of --(a) Their Eggs and Poultry—The su:cessful demonstration given in Prince Edward Island of the co -opera' Live sale of eggs suggests the need and wisdom of extending the system now in operation to all the provinces of Canada and of its further elaboration as required by varying local condi- tions and in the development of inter- provincial and foreign trade. (b) Their Wool—The policy to be pursued in this work must closely adhere to thes'ptinciples followed during the past year but it is hoped that means may be devised which shall secure to tie growers the commercial advan- tages of deferred sale when the market warrants the holding of the product. (c) Their Lambs, Hogs and Cattle.—It is proposed to initiate the co-operative sale of live stock in ac- cordance with the principles followed in the work already taken, It should be made clear that in the prosecution of this program it is not expected. or intended to involve the Department in any commercial obli- gation, the farmers' associations, as .i: master of deliberate policy, assuming full and completei'bsponsibility in the transaction of their own business and, ultimately, in the executive adminis- tration of their own organization. 3. The Promotion of Sale by Grade and Payment according to Quality. -- It is widely reeognizod that the sale of produce on a• flat rate basis for ex- ample in the case of hogs, invariably inflects a penalty on the progressive farmer and in effect provides a pre- mium for law rate goods.
