A, C.. is arranging to give a field demonstration of the use of the modern ditching machine iri con­ nection with the international Plow­ ing Match to be held at Peterbor­ ough in October. They will also have an exhibit of drainage plans and equipment in one of the large exhibit tents. Here and There IO. A. recently issued the following report, which gives some conception of the valuable work it is doing: Soil surveys in Wentworth and Mid­ dlesex have been completed and much valuable data assembled. Five carloads of lime have been distri­ buted in the Counties of Elgin. Wentworth, Haldimand, Welland and Lincoln. This is in connection with a co-operation test on each of ten farms in each county, where lime was applied to acid soils when seed­ ing wheat. The plan was made possible by co-operation of this De­ partment with the Markets Branch. Department of Agriculture, the limestone companies and the rail­ ways. -Harvesting of the experi­ mental tobacco plots of Norfolk Co. is finished and a crop of excellent quality was garnered. Many soil samples have been received in the past month by this Department with the request that they be studied and, advice given as to fertilizer treat­ ment for fall wheat. Investigation of insecticides and fungicides ■ is be- img continued, and a number samples of various brans of Green, Calcium Arsenate and Arsenate are being studied. ' Weekly Crop Report ■Some fall wheat has been • sefwn but more moisture is required to make conditions ideal in most dis­ tricts. Fall plowing has made ex- .celelnt progress throughout the province. Fruits are plentiful this year, with a large crop of grapes and a bumper crop of apples. The bean croqp is proving better than anticipated. The tobacco crop, is exceptionally' heavy one, is practic­ ally all in. The root crop is very promising. Ontario gold production for the. half year to" June 30 reached $20, 608,195, the greatest on record.' Indications are that the output for the full year 1031 will be well over $41,000,000 in value.

This year for the first time honey is graded with government standards into the classes, White, Golden, Am­ ber and Dark, and there are three grades in each of these classes. As the exhibit graphically portrayed, the objective in graded honey is a better product which will develop consumer demand for really fine quality in one of nature’s whole­ some sweets. The grading is ex-* pected, through satisfied customers buying with confidence in quality, to increase demand, to faciliate or­ derly marketing, and to ensure greater returns for the producer. Both novel and interesting, was the display of 240 pounds of honey, the product of one hive at the Cen­ tral Experimental Farm so far this year, arranged as* ‘it was in pyramid Of five-pound pails. New Grading Rules . New amendments to the Root and Vegetables Act call for the grading of potatoes at all seasons of the year and place a ban on all cull apples and fruits from the markets.

Co­ operation of truckers, wholesalers, and growers is asked in bringing' the law into effect. - There will be the regular four Mr. Garnet Dalyrmple has started bean threshing again this year.
