Quality Poultry Consumers are showing a dis- tinct preference for good quality chickens, and there are still not enough Grade A birds to go round. The sale of market poultry by grade at retail stores has been introduced gradually in the large Canadian centres, ofrcials of the Dominion Department of Agricul- ture point out. But the consum- ers like this method of buying poultry just as they do the sys- tem of buying graded. eggs. And it is a good way of selling for the poultry raiser. The usual retail premium for Grade A over Grade B birds is four or five cents a, pound. The spread between Grade A and. Grade C may range as high as 10 to 15 cents a pound. Grade A conformation — meat type—is largely a matter of better selection and breeding. The fat factor is largely one of better feeding and management — the applied art of feeding as well as the composition of the ration. Eighty per cent A. minded and better has been attained in some recent broiler feeding tests. Forty- three per cent is the average for Grade A inspected shipments for all Canada in 1948. This leaves a wide margin for improvement; improvement which will produce better quality birds for which there is a ready retail market. There is no particular difficulty in fattening chickens, officials say, if the birds, are properly managed and fed a ra- tion prepared for finishing poultry.

Star Products Seaforth : Phone 146 eau by ottawa observer The smashing Liberal triumph' in Newfoundland surprised even the seasoned political observers in OttawO„ Ahandy Liberal -win had ,been, expected. But the opposition forc- es were ready to count if a moral victory if they had taken as much as 10 of the 28 seats, Prime Minister Louis St. Laur- ent sent his. personal congratula- tions to Premier Joseph Small- wood. The Prime Minister said it was a victory "both for Confedera- tion and for the cause of Liber- alism." Gardiner Critical Agriculture Minister James G. Gardiner blasted the Tory party for promoting policies of allowing capitalists to have a free hand "But they neglect to point out that whenever that policy has been followed we have had low returns. to labor, farmers and fishermen— and depression." He turned to other parties. "There is only one Socialist gov- ernment in Canada, but every so- cial service is already established by a previous Liberal government." "Not only have the Liberals es- tablished social services," he point- ed out, "but they have devised sys- tems of taxation which -take exces- sive profits into the treasury to pay for those social services with- out interfering with the freedom of individuals and corporations. "Agriculture should vote Liber- al," he said. Its greatest prosper- ity was under the Laurier govern- ment overnment of 1896 to 1911, the King government from 1922 to 1930, and the King and St. Laurent govern- ments from 1936 to the present. Exports Up! Canada's trade picture brighten- ed when April export figures were released by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. The exports totalled. $237,800,000 in April, compared with $212,300,000 in the same month last year. Trade for the first quarter this year was also running ahead of the records of last year. Exports for the first four months were $896,000,000. Last year they were $884,400,000, Apart from the election cam- paign the big event of the week was the opening of the Canadian International Trade Fair at Toron- to. This is Canada's second trade fair and the number of exhibitors and buyers present from the prin- cipal trading countries of the world gives assurance that it will be an even greater .success than the iiret fair last year. The trade fair came about be- cause Canada had in its employ a few alert, far-seeing civil servants and because the Liberal govern- ment was big enough to act on their advice and give tbem suffi- cient scope to do a job. The civil servants who planned and made the Canadian International Trade Fair are the same men who are sometimes called "bureaucrats" by politicians who would either dis- miss them from the public service or put them under initiative -killing restraint. The First Canadian International Trade Fair last year was so much a success flat the United States is copying the idea, going to hold' similar fairs in several cities.

Canada than in March, 1948: The deal for the sale of British Columbia canned) salmon to Bri- tain went through last week. For two or three years. Britain has been 'buying nocanned salmon from Canada. Decision to purchase= this year came during Trade Min,;. ister C. D, Howe's recent visit ov- erseas. verseas. The deal which is for 410,- 000 cases, means the •recapture of an important market. Displaying the courtesy which characterizedhis political career, Rt. Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King travelled to Alexandria in Glen- garry County last week to thank the electors for giving him a seat in the last parliament. The Liber- als of the •historic county were as- sembled in convention and again tendered him the nomination, but he declined, thus bringing his ac- tive political life to a definite close after forty-one years. The former Prime Minister said his health would not permit him to take part in the election, but he wanted it clearly understood he was solidly behind Prime Minister St. Laurent and the Liberal ,government, "and behind Liberal party principles as they are being carried out." He went further and said there was not another man in Canada so well qualified to lead the nation as Mr. St. Laurent, Drew's Measure Taken As Leader Mr. Drew's attacks on the North Star have backfired disastrously. He now says that his' criticism was based on a question of difficulty of operation and not on the question of danger involved. The effect of his charges, how- ever, has already been felt, as pre- dicted ro-dicted by the politically independ- ent 'Financial Post; "Mr. Drew's charges will certain- ly be used against T.C.A. which has been strenuously competing for international business, and they .. certainly won't help Can- ada sell, as has been the hope, mere of these planes to other coun- tries, and they could have a ser- ious effect on the jobs of thousands of Canadians ... and on Canada." Progressive Conservatives did not obtain one-third of the popular vote. and 13 P.C. candidates lost their deposits. Mr. Drew minimiz- es the significance of the Liberal landslide, but the internationally read "Time" comments thus: "The Tories tried to outpromise the Liberals . they promised to increase family allowance pay- ments, to start old age pensions at 65 years instead of 70, and to eliminate the means test. After the last of the Liberal and Tory promises had been made, the vot- ers went to the polls. Joey Small- wood and his Liberals got a land- slide victory." When Mr. St. Laurent visited Halifax on May 14, Premier Mac- donald ao-donald had this, to say: "Courtesy, dignity, courage, in- telligence, tolerance of the views of others, and a readiness to help others—,these are the qualities e-hich have marked Mr, St. Laur- ent's private and public career. These are the qualities revered and cherished by the Canadian people. These are the qualities which will win overwhelming sup- port from the Canadian people for the Prime Minister on June 27." r..
