The Blyth girls' team failed to show up so there was only one girls’ game played.

Aid to z Fruit Grctwors As an aid to - the overseas keting of Ontario’s surplus crop, tlje Ontario Government has decided to come to the aid of the Fruit Growers’ Association in so far as guaranteeing sufficient monies to the banks to allow proper financ­ ing of the shippers. This step has been taken to allow absolute inde­ pendence in marketing and will mean that with the association in a position to finance export ship­ ments, a large number of shippers who have been barred in the past will now be able to take advant­ age of the services of Mr. Andrew Fulton, the association’s represen­ tative in Great Britain.'* As a fur­ ther step in organizing the prov­ ince’s fruit' trade, the appointment is announced^ of Kenneth Crews of Trenton to assist P. W. Hodgetts, directoi* of the fruit branch and secretary of the association. He will keep constantly in touch with the shippers in advising of market conditions an acting as liason ficer between, the shippers and Fulton. Further, a series of periments will be undertaken once with a view to controlling “apple scald” disease which annu­ ally causes tremendous loss to On­ tario shippers. A Contrast in Weather The contrast in weather condi­ tions during th© present summer in Southern and Northern Ontario and in Quebec has been of a most astonishing nature and holds more than' a. touch of irony for " generally. In the north and bee the rain came in such quantities that crops were seriously in some districts. Ontario, west, crops sweltered day under a merciless sun for . a period of nearly two months. Rain­ fall figures for July afford the most striking illustration' of what the countryside has borne. In Southern Ontario the rainfall was J.53 inches, whereas the average fig­ ure is 3.5 inches of moisture. Que­ bec, on the other hand, had the greatest rainfall in thirty years. The total for the month was 5.6 inches as compared with a normal of 3.7 inch.es farmers in Que- copious injured, In Old particularly in the ' south­ crops sweltered day after CARLING & MORLEY?

Crop Conditions Recent reports from agricultural representatives would indicate that the yields' of fall wheat and spring grains have.* been ‘exceptionally good. Weather conditions been ideal for the storing of and for stook threshing which coming very popular. Crops as potatoes, beans, sugar corn and tobacco, will have light fields due to lack of rainfall. The yields of all fruits, especially ap­ ples and grapes, will be detriment­ ally affected. Pastures in many sec­ tions were severely burned and many dairymen, especially in West­ ern Ontario, have had to resort to feeding their cattle grain and ensil­ age. This expense, in addition to the low price paid for milk at cheese factories has caused farmers no little concern, shortage of pasture has also creased the’ shipments of and lambs, with the result many cattle will be sold at a have grain is be- such beets, •the the The in­ Cattle that loss. Use Plenty ojf Litter It is good policy to use abundance of clean, fresh litter the laying pens and a poor econ­ omy to restrict the quantity even when litter laying and a she is ter on fresh and clean, is an excellent means of keeping the layers busy even though all the grain- is being fed in hcfppers and none is thrown on , the floor. One of the best' ma­ terials for litter is wheat straw, which is not so stiff as rye straw and does not break as easily as oat straw. Litter absorbs consid­ erable moisture from the droppings and from the air of the hen house, and should be changed frequently in wet weather. Moldy straw is al­ most certain to cause trouble and should houses. , ONT. Dr. D. A. ANDERSO hen hen busy the must be . purchased. A is always a happy hen cannot be happy unless most of the time.

This is only one branch of work undertaken there which is of sub­ stantial benefit to individual .farm­ ers of Southern Ontario and to the province as a whole. Valuable work has been done with tobacco, " The crop! prospect, reported on Aug 1, indicates a yield of 2, 990,109 bar­ rels, as. compared with a yield of 3,939,915 barrels in 1929, or 75.8 percent, of last year, or 93.9 of the five-year average of 3,182,195 bar-, rels. 'British Odumibia, with an estimater crop of 4,169,13 6 boxes, is the only province reporting an increase over last year. Nova Sco­ tia expects a crop of slightly over half that of the bumper crop in 1929, while Ontario, Quebec and New Brunswick report decreases ranging from 12.5 per cent, to 3 8.9 per cent. Indications are that fruit will be of fair to good size, and in general color prospects are favor­ able. The extremely dry weather which has prevailed throughout most sections of Ontario and Brit­ ish Columbia has resulted in a slight reduction in the estimates for plums aNd prunes, peaches and grapes, although in all cases ex­ pected yields are considerably larg­ er than last year. TWO BARNS BURNED NAB WODHAMJ Two fine- big bank barns and a drive shed on the farm of George Morphy, lot 17, con. 7 Blanshard, east of Woodh'am, were completely destroyed by fire on Tuesday after- ndon Of last week'. Mr. Morphy was stook-threshing when ' the stack fire. Sparks from the blow- belfeved to have started the thousand bushels of wheat caught er are blaze. TWO which had been left over from .last year, ten tons of .hay, seventy tons of Straw and ■ two days’ threshing of this year’s grain, mostly oats and barley, were consumed in 'the blaze. The grain was being drawn from the fields to the barn where thresh- ing was being carried on. The straw was being blown to a "stack near the barn. It was hi this stack that the fire started. In a few minute's the two barns, one of them seventy-two feet by forty^four feet, and the other thirty-six feet by sixty feet, which were joined together, were in flames. The fire soon spread to the imple­ ment shed thirty feet, by tliirty-SiX feet and those on the scene were powerless to1 save it. Most of the implements were gotten out, how­ ever. The threshing outfit, owned by Herman Doupe, was not destroy­ ed. Fortunately there was no live stock in the stables at the time. The loss will probably be between eight and ten thousand dollars, partly cov- r insurance. /and ten jered by ./>) ■ DR. E. S.
