This is one of services rendered by the Experimental Station, at upon request. Where a field is not the crop it should, the acidity of the soil may be a liming factor. In such a case it certainly is advisable to have to have the soil idity. Soil /samples carefully taken with a clean spade at representative places in the field. A sample from a very productive area is often helpful for comparison. One half pint of soil is sufficient -for such a test, but this should he taken from a well mixed larger representative sample.

The production of raspberries this year is estimated at 3 5 per cent, in­ crease over last year. Some drying out of raspberry eanes at the top is reported, but generally prospects are quite favorable. Although the apple crop will be considerably under average, the to­ tal yield will show good improve­ ment over last year. In Eastern On­ tario, Spys, Starks and Ben Davis promise very light crops.

Pears show little change in prospects from a year ago. Duch­ ess are light; Bartletts, quite patchy, with a light to medium set and other varieties may be described as me­ dium.
