Kennedy, Agriculture, has announced new regulations have been Min- Federal Government estimates in dicate that potato acreage in Ontar io this season will show a decrease of approximately seven per cent, over that of the 19;3I1 season, These estimates set the 1931 acreage in Ontario at 169,6'04 as against a pro bable acreage of 15 8,0 00 this year. Figures for the Dominion of Cana da show a like decrease of 7 per cent., (being 5 83,920 acres in 1931, as compared with -543,700 acres^fo'r 1932,. Mr. Casein also stated that, ac cording to his calculations,» the amount of fertilizer used in the pro duction of potatoes this year will amount, to only about half of.that used last year. ‘While*- we have had very favorable conditions to date,” he continued, “the crop out look at this time does not present the same promise of yield as .did that of the same period in 1931.” In conclusion, Mr. Cassin, said, “It is too early to” predict the ex tent of the 193 2 crop but, in view of present .conditions, it would ap pear that potatoes are being offered in quantities larger than the mar ket can readily absorb. This con dition, of course, has brought about the inevitable result of sacrifice prices.” ’ '■ lay tennis’1 Hon. ister of that adopted by the Province and Do minion jointly to improve the standards of bacon, production.

Associa tion held a-t the Agricultural Col lege-,, Guelph, a< resolution was adopted asking the Federal De partment .of Agriculture to make effective the inspection of all tur nips for domestic and e-xport ship ment, according to G. R. Paterson Ontario Marketing Board." It was felt by the shippers that this was - -- ■ - unl_ Chatham and surrounding points,one method of establishing formity of .pack ahd quality. Ontario has an extensive I mar ket for rutabagas in the United States, but this valuable cfutlet has been partially blocked, due to the fact that the Maritime growers have adopted the practice of in spection through warehouses. In addition to this movement to wards. inspection, the shippers’ as sociation is giving some thought to central grading and packing.' Community Beautification At a recent meeting of societies of District No, 2 of the Ontario Horticultural Association at the Central Experimental Farm, ,Otta- waf reports receive^ showed in a fine way the high degree of effic iency which lias, been attained in carrying out the principal object and purpose of the Association in respect to community- beautifica tion. The report of the district inspector, J. B. Spencer, B. S. A. shows that effective work has -been done in this respect by the followng societies in the district:— Arnprior, North Gower, Billings Bridge, Pembroke, Gananoquo, Kars, Almonte, Brookville, Fitzroy Town ship, Spencerville and Huntley Tp. \ IThe work accomplished by these societies emphasizes in a fine way the value, of individual units giving effective support to the More Beau tiful Canada campaign sponsored by 40 cents; off lines or side lines or radial lines in same territory, 37 cents; Central Ontario points," say from (London to Lake Simcoe dis trict, 42 cents; east of that and on to Montreal, 46 cents. These would represent the approximate t.o.b. prices paid to shippers ahd in the case of barley, the farmer would, in many cases, foe the shipper. These prices would apply only to carload shipments* This offer is considerab ly better' than present-day prices on the Montreal market.
