Field Crop Report
Bruce County reports its wheat
sample generally poor to fair with
an occasional field yielding well with
good quality. In Dufferin the crop
is badly affected with rust and in
Grey a°similiar condition has made
the yield disappointing. Barley and
oats prospects in that district are ex
ceptionally good. Rust also did much
damage in Wellington County, like
wise in North Simcoe. In the latter
county the crop of oats promised to
be the best in five years, but a gen
eral outbreak of smut and army
uorm inroads have reduced .pros
pects to average. Wheat is running
up to- 40 bushels to the acre in Brant
depending on the winter killing and
rust. Haldimand also has a wheat
crop running 40 bushels to the acre
or better. 'The market for new
grain in Lambton is very low, prices
quoted being: New wheat 6 4c; bor-
ley 42c and oats ,32c. Field corn
for silage purposes is looking sp^hn-
did in Lincoln and has made tremen

skim-milk or fish meal, for two or
three weeks before breeding time in

naturally require more feed than
those raising only one, but if early
spring and fall litters can be acco

pigs to weaning age will be lower if
two litters pei’ year are raised.
Market hogs make faster gains
when confirmed to a pen, but sow
pigs which are to be reserved for
breeding, should be given good pas
ture to ensure good vigorous breed
ers. They should be fed liberally
to ensure satisfactory growth when
they are on pasture, but if their yard
is small and the gilts get only a lim

one of the mast .serious weed pests
in Ontario by the Crop, Seeds and
Weeds Branch of the Ontario De

It is difficult to kill owing to its
deep fleshy rootstalks and the num
bers of stems growing from one
crown. The crown is often down
six to twelve inches in the soil and
this explains the difficulty in cutting
it off with the plow and the need
of deep plowing followed by a stiff
toothed cultivator with wide shares
which overlap. Roots and root
stalks brought to the surface will
not survive but any portion left in
the soil with a bud attached, will
produce a new plant. Thorough cul
tivation will eradicate Bladder Cam
pion in cutivated areas. Chemical
weed killers is the only practical so

An abundance of good pasture
during the summer greatly reduces
the cost of maintaining brood sows.
Crops such as rape or clover supply
needed minerals, vitamins and other
nutrients. The exercise obtained in
grazing also contributes in no small
measure to the general health of the
breeding stock, with consequent
benedicial results at farrowing time.
(Sows raising only one litter per
year need but little grain after the
pigs are weaned, if good pastures are
provided. While it is a mistake to
allow sows to become too fat, it is
equally unwise to allow them to be

An official visit by His Excellency
Lord Tweedsmuir, Governor-General
of Canada, to the International
Plowing Match at Minesing, near
Barrie, Ont., on Thursday, October
13th, is announced by J. A. Carroll,
Manager of this annual agricultural
event, the greatest plowing match
not only in the British Empire, but
in the entire world,
; Last year the attendance was over
100,000 at the four-day event and
this record, it is expected, will ,b®| shattered this year. The dates
October 11th to 14th inclusive.
“There is no doubt” states
Carrdfcl, “that the invitation Of
Ontario Plowmen’s Association
accepted by His Excellency because
of his genuine interest in all phases
of agriculture and particularly good
plowing and fine horses.”
Scotland, the birthplace of Lord
Tjveedsmulr, is rich in plowing lore,
and her sons, well-skilled in the art
have transplanted a desire for good
cultivation in every part of
tish Empire, particularly
where for over 100 years
matches have been held.
“While there may be 70
modern and'powerful tractors in op
eration on a busy day, double that
amount, about 140 competitors, will
use good strong reliable and well-
groomed horses, the icream of the
pioiwng teams in Canada. “A Horse
Show is a special feature of
Match” elates ilr, Carroll.

MILES OF BINDER TWINE
Stratford Beacon-Herald
Every so often a reporter is bound
to go berserk—or a little daffy, if
you prefer to put it that way. Which
probably accounts for this one at
tempting to figure out in approxi
mate tons and miles the amount of
twine it will take to bind the grain
crops in Perth and Huron this sum
mer.To the individual farmer _ binder
twine may not be such a big item as
farm expenses go, but when you be
gin figuring out how much it takes
to bind the crops in the two counties
it makes your heart swyn. You don’t
get up into the miliums of feet, for
instance. That’s child’s play. You
get up into the hundreds of million^
Believe it or not, but all the twine
to be used by Perth and Huron farm
ers to bind their wheat, oats, barley
and mixed grain were placed end to
end, it would go around the equator
nearly six times. 'Or something
like 139,000 miles.
Taking it for granted that the
acreage planted for these four crops
was the same this year in the two
counties as it was last year, there
were approximately 40 8,000 acres
planted. Then, for the sake of sim
plicity, let it be estimated that three
pounds of twine is required for
every acre, Naturally, that estimate
is somewhat too high, but the figure
is much easier to work with than
getting into the decimal points.
That means that 1,224,000 pounds
(612) tons of twine was used alto
gether -fat the 408,000 acres.

(Crops along the way looked fail’

the farmer had begun to plow the
wheat under for the hail damage was
100 per cent. Fortunately the area
hailed out is not large, but the da
mage means much to the unfortun
ate ones. Alberta if? expecting the
best crop since 1932, but the grain
is still green and anything may hap
pen even yet before it is harvested.
As pne farmer expressed it a few
days ago: ‘‘It was a lovely field of
wheat, but haii came and in five
minutes it was all gone.” The On-
taria farmer with his dairy herd
and his variety of crops can scarce
ly understand the uncertainty of the
western farmer -where spring grain
is the one source of income. I un
derstand also, that the present ad
ministration has done away with
municipal hail insurance which used,
to be a great help.
I was very much impressed a few
days ago in driving to the westward
by the beauty of the wildflowers >on
the roadside. One does not notice
them along the main highways but
along some of the other roads
there is a blaze of solour. I never

stay in. long. The-cool air of the
mouthing was very refreshing as we
wended oui’ way down hill to the ca
bin.
Mountain air is healthy and good for the appetite—We found; oui’ beds
were very comfortable, but for some
reason we d-id not sleep well for
the-first few nights. The thrilling ex--
periences of the day were as noth
ing compared to the hair-raising epi
sodes of our dreams , My brother
who was chaffeui’ kept pushing his
cai’ over the precipice at the dizziest
point, while I found myself deter
mined on jumping out of the bucket
in which I had seen the Mt. Stephen
miners going to wbrk.
. The call to supper in the vofee
of my three year old nephew brings
me safely down out of the moun
tains and the cloudef—but What a
picture those mountains 'have etched
upon memory’s endtirfng fabric,
