on the wednesday afternoon we were present the poultry people wero in tesnl nn in mmwy hall and the nddressei centred around the turkey xlluntlnn turkey nutrition and new developments in turkey production and marketing- all of which no doubt was very much worthwhile hut we attended the session in memorial hall which incidentally was filled almost to capacity for the address of dr w g kammlade of the university of illinois who spoke on some aspects of grassland animal agriculture hit address centred around acme of the experiences and experiments in the development of socalled marginal or sub marginal lands in the southern part of illinois it is in this area that the dixon springs experimental station is located thln station contains approxim ately moo acres vary inn in topo graphy from level to slopes of more than 15 per cent according to the speaker no ef fort is made to crop slopes that are steeper than d per cent which means a nine foot rise in one hund red feet slopes over 0 per cent are in their opinion best suited for forest use we were interested in the speakers statement there an no marginal or sub marginal land- if they are put to the use for which they are best adopted erosion control their studies of soil and water losses have shown that the best land use for erosion control relntei to some type of grassland agriculture under their conditions of topo graphy and rainfall in southern ill inois the speaker itated a plow layer of soil would be lost in from 20 to 25 years under the usual till- age me hods under grassland type of nirietilture it woum take from three to eight thousand vears to lose that sune amount of oil 7iporfnrire of crop residues according to dr k imi id when crop residues were removed n a 5 per ecu slope soil losses were a fi tons pit acre with corn and 0 7 tons ptr acre with winter wheat where the residue- were returned the soil losses were 1 fi and 4 1 ton- respectively these are hut a few of what o u were- most interesting comment- in this out standing two hour addres- the livestock situation we had rather looked forward to hearing an old friend in the person f i w pearsall chief of the marketing service for the canada department of agriculture how ever important matters elsewhere prevented mr pearsall being in at tendance however his paper was very ablv handled by s c barry his nssiiciate in introducing the subject it was pointed out that for the flrst time in canadas history we have no export outlet for our beef and pork until the past few verrs the great bulk of our livestock products went o great britain since lflso sjxtv- flve per cent of our exports have gone to us and only lor to great britain most of us have been under the impression that the loss of the british market was due to a short age of dollars with which to buv our products in part that may be true but we personally were sur prised to learn that during the past five years britain has been spend ing 650 million dollars a year in canada in contrast to 3s0 million dollars a vear during the five year period prior to 1030 one imporant factor repons for the lav of the brill h market s the high price of canadian agri cultural products in relation to the price of the same products in other parts of the world the real crux of the situation is that britain nui t have raw products for her re arm ment program large surplus of pork and beef our hog marketings to the md t june are onethird higher than a year ago some t7 million pounds of pork hav been canned and to date it in storage riot sold in addition some 15 million pounds of pork is be in a held in storngc in the form of wiltshire as a result of the four way agree ment recently made between can ada great britain new zealand and us a market was arranged for 60 million pounds of beef of this amount nearly a0 million pounds would be nn the wav to britain by the end of last wpek with heavy runs of both hoes and beef anticipated this v fall it would seem that we are far from being out of the woods yet foot and mouth outbreak the outbreak of foot and mouth disease in saskatchewan last feb ruary involved only 2 premises and nome 1300 head nf stock tim i in
