NO HARDSHIPS SEEN FROM MEAT RATIONING Fear that meat rationing will bring any hardship to Canadian families when it comes Into effect in the near future, is dispelled by the list of meats which will not come un­ der’ the ruling. Although meat rationing is neces­ sary, the Wartime Prices and Trade Board has seen fit to list exemptions “fancy” meats (heart, tongue, liver, brains, etc., jellied meat loaf,) fowl, canned meats and meat containing mere than 503% bone. These will be available over and above the weekly rations, Becipes which feature ’‘meat stretchers” are also being published in numerous newspapers, and with these there should be little change in the faipily diet, say officials, The Prices Board is trying to steer housewives away from the idea of using substitutes. They suggest that women dig up old recipes or acquaint themselves with new ones which are being turned out. These show how “stretchers” such as bread crumbs, vegetables, macaroni and noodles can be mixed with meat to cook tempting dishes which will go far­ ther and last longer. Should eggs, cheese and fowl used as substitutes, when meat tions are used up, a serious run these commodities needed for seas shipment may result. JOHN C.

In 1942 there were ‘122,000 acres grown which was the second lowest potato acreage for On­ tario that has ever been recorded during the past sixty years. In 1941, the acreage was 120,00*0 but the an­ nual acreage for 1932-19 41 period were 147,844, while in the period 192 2-19 31 the annual acreage was 164,084 acres. Potato yields per acre were also lower last year, and there were heavy losses from leafhopper and blight injury. One of the principal reasons given for reduction in acreage this year is the difference in price between certi­ fied seed and ordinary table stock. While both are difficult to obtain, growers feel that ceiling prices should have been established for cer­ tified seed. Shortages of labour on farms and difficulty in obtaining labour-saving machinery are also factors affecting maximum produc­ tion. Very few crops produce as much nutrients pei’ acre as do potatoes, and owing to transportation difficul­ ties, it is logical that every effort be made to produce maximum amounts of food close to consuming centres. While demands for potatoes may be expected to reach a maxi­ mum high next winter and spring, a reduction in the Ontario potato crop will tend to complicate food and transportation difficulties at that time. Therefore, it is important that in­ creased production per acre be se­ cured this year. Best care possible should be given the Ontario potato crqp in 1943 by way of using suffic­ ient amounts and proper kinds of fertilizers, proper cultivation • and protecting the growing plants against insects and disease. To avoid loss from the destructive disease know as Bacterial King Rot, it is import­ ant to disinfect all second-hand bags and machinery before using for seed potatoes, Your Agricultural Representative Will be glad to assist you “with your potato problems, or further infor­ mation may be secured from Crops, Seeds and Weeds Branch ,Ontario Department of Agriculture, parlia­ ment Buildings, Toronto. and Mrs. George Clarke family, of Thedford, visited on Sun­ day last at the home of Mr. and Mrs. William Sweitzer.
