He said the in­ crease had been noted principally west of Toronto to the border. Eastern Ontario there had been only a small increase, while some areas there was none. Ontario Seed Com production Important “'This modern statement that we don’t need to pay any more atten­ tion to production, but rather con­ centrate on marketing our products is not altogether correct, and many farmers who are voicing it are really doing harm to themselves,” declared Dr. G. I. Christie, presi­ dent of O. A. C., in an address be­ fore the Western Ontario Dairy­ men’s Association. “You cannot market your cheese unless the farm­ ers use the best quality of milk in producing it. You cannot disre­ gard production since it is the first and most important step in the marketing of your produce. The problem lias been left to the men on the farms too much and it is up to others to step in and help them if they too are to prosper." So long as we have a harried between the farmer-producer and tne men who market his goods there can be no real progress. Suspicion and selfish­ ness prevent it. There must be co­ operation between these wo.” Regist er Now J Fruit and vegetable growers should send in their reigstration forms at once. There is very little time between now and the opening of the 1932 season to shape market­ ing plans and policies. The Ontario Growers’ Market Council is going to be hard pressed even as it is, to list and tabulate all the information to enable them to put growers in touch with profitable markets. There is only one way in which they can do this and that is through co-operating with growers anid let­ ting them iknow' what crops grow and in what quantities. Growers’ Market Council is stantly getting inquiries from they The con- buy­ ers who are anxious to get supplies and so far they have not been, alble to find enough supplies to fill the demand. If any grower has sup­ plies of winter vegetables on hand lie should note this specially on the registration form. Only last week the Growers’ Markets Council received an enquiry for a large quantity of squash and although one or two carloads were available a great deal more could have been sold and: at prices about twice what the local markets have been paying. There is also a good demand for winter carrots and beets. All ■ re- gitration forms properly filled' in should, be ent to Mr. Chas. W. Bau­ er, Secretary, Ontario Growers’ Council, Bruce Building, Hamilton, Ontario. Fruit Growers to Meet The annual meeting of the On­ tario Fruit Growers’ Association is being held at Hamilton at the Royal Connaught Hotel on February 9th, XOth and 11th. The district meet­ ing of the Georgian Bay section is being held at Meaford, February 3, and the Northumberland and Bur- ham section at Cojbourg on February 4th and.5th, In only in re­When asked for an opinion garding the Ontario seed corn situ­ ation, George R. Paterson, Ontario Marketing Board, said: “There should be no d-oubt in the minds of dealers, or farmers, in regard to Ontario seed corn. The truth of the matter is that Ontario has never produced a crop superior to that of 1931. Our growers can supply seed corn of suitable varieties, and of good quality, for 1932 planting.” Notwithstanding the fact that there is a large suppy of Ontario seed corn of suitable varieties for the production of corn for ‘husking, or silage, or fodder, seed corn of foreign, origin and in large quanti­ ties, is being offered for sale in On­ tario and the Eastern provinces.” “There is no reason,” continued Mr. Paterson, “why dealers should hesitate in deciding what corn to sell, or farmers what corn to use. Growers can be assured of success if they use corn of the highest qual­ ity and maximum yields.” “Dealers,” he conculded, “will be glad to supply their customers with Ontario seed corn.” Holstein Dutton Norfolk Port Dover Ontario .

Carlson fell only one vote of election to the premiership and great things are expected of him in future. The one hundred and twenty mem­ bers of the Parlamen-t included a small group of younger boys who were chosen because of their exceptional personal qualities, or their records as Trail Rangers. Later, these juniors hope to become Tuxis Boys and lead­ ers in the working out of the program for older boys, for which reason they listened attentively to the disctissioin of the various proposals considered by Parliament for improving the boy life of Ontario. The debates on the floor of the House, which met in Trinity College, and the conduct of the members showed that the boys of the Parliament possess the highest ideals of Christian citizenship, favor clean sport and clean living and ad­ vocate peace and world brotherhood* “Tuxis,” by the way, is a coined word, the “X” standing for Christ, with “U” and “I” on either side, the “T” and “S” standing for training and service, the word therefore suggest­ ing that those belong to Tuxis are united by Christ for training and ser­ vice. The Trail Rangers are junior Tuxis Boys and from twelve to four­ teen year of age* Tuxis Boys and Trail Rangers gather in groups in the Sunday Schools and during the week they engage in activities that appeal to boys. They pledge themselves to Seek Truth, Chcrich Health, Love God and Help Others. The Tuxis program finds a place in all the Pro­ testant denominations and the boys from the various churches join co-op­ eratively in boys’ conferences, sum­ mer camps, the Older Boys’ Parlia­ ment, Father and Son banquets and athletic meets, these various co-Op- crative activities supervised by Work Board. For a number Parliament, out of a service in the way calculated to be of most value to the boyhood of th ; province, has assumed the obligation of raising the budget of the Ontario Boys’ Work Board. This year the sum of $13,000 is needed, including the expenses of Paflamcnt, itself, and the Parliament, with the aid of seventy local boards and of 12,000 Trail Ranger and Tuxis Boys, will put on its financial campaign between Janu­ ary 30th and February 9th. Bronze medals will be awarded to boys sell­ ing $5 worth of bonds and silver medals to boys selling $14.00 worth of bonds* ■ $ J REMEMBERED ON BIRTHDAY Dr. G. S.
