The great International .Plowing

Dairying; in the North
In 1917, the Ontario Government
demonstrated its interest in the
dairy indusry of the North Country
by establishing a creamery at New
Liskeard. This Creamery was open
ed in March of that year and until
the end of December of the same
year drawing, cream from as far
north as Cochrane and east and west
on the Transcontinental, manufac
tured 40,000 pounds of butter. This
yas the only, creamery along the T.
Jfc N. O. at that tim'e, but since then,
four other creameries have been lo
cated in the District of Temiskaming
and more in the District of Cochrane
Last year, namely 1929, the butter
output of the Districts of Teiniskam-
ing and Cochrane, was well over one
million pounds. This is. concrete
evidence of the. progress the dairy
industry has made in this ;,pqrf of
Northern Ontario. This year all
creameries report increased produc
tion over last year, ■ ,
————‘ ' i' i‘ ■
Potatoes have also moved quickly
and have been a good crop and the
price is considered very satisfactory.
The organization now has grading
stations at Harrow, Kingsville,
Leamington and Ruthven, with New
ton James as manager.
Testing’ Fertilizers
A new method of bringing the On
tario Agricultural College into con
tact' with farmers is the practise of
holding evening meetings on field
demonstrations with fertilizers.
These demonstrations, of which sev
eral hundred were laid out' on a
variety of crops throughout the pro
vince consist d'f plots of half-acre or
acre size, on which different com
binations of fertilizing elements are
compared with unfertilized plots and
with one another under practical
farm conditions.. This work has
been made possible by co-operation
of the college, county representa
tives, farmer demonstrators and
fertilizer interests.
So far this season ten field meet
ings have been held, in Kent, Essex,
Elgin, Middlesex, ’Welland, Oxford,
Waterloo and Wellington. Further
meetings ai’e planned as the later
crops reach maturity., At each
meeting the crops are inspected and
a general discussion opened on the
subject of fertilizerc, led by soil fer
tility experts from the O.A.C.

Summer Fallowing I’ays
R, H. Clemons, agricultural rep
resentative in North- Wellington, es
timates that West Luther Township
alone will have about 4000 acres of
summer fallow’ “Nothing has im
proved our crop yield so much and
reduced our Weeds more than July
plowing,’’ he declares. “Some have
found, however, that when a great’
deal of work is put on a clay field,
it runs badly in the spring and be-
.comes wet. and soggy, remaining. sQ
until it becomes hard on top and-
produces a later erop than one would
expect. This may be .overcome to a
great extent by duck-footing in the
■fall with a-cultivator and some farm
ers are planning on dirging with a
plow. Ridging summer fallows with,
a plow is highly recommended
clay areas.” ;^.-
Potato Club Meet
r Approximately 200 farmers and
Others interested in potato club work
gathered recently on the farm of Mr.
A. E. Brwn, Mount Brydges, the oc
casion being the first field day of
the Middlesex Boys’ Potato Club.
After an inspection of Mr. Brown’s,
field, the boys’ plots, and agricultur
al machinery, addresses were given
by J. J. Johnson, of Parkhill, Middle
sex County fruit and vegetable in-!
spector, Who .discussed the grading!
and marketing of potatoes. Mr.;
Johnson stressed the necessity of i
putting up potatoes of uniform qual
ity and placing them On the market
in an attractive way. Various speak
ers outlined work being carried on
in the development of the farming
industry in general and those in at
tendance spent a very profitable day.
