Fluid milk sales this year are running at more than twice the rate of population growth. I4 rok-es'ors aopst Promotion Far "Dairy Month" At time of writing it is a bit early to. assess the damage by the widespread frosts of May 24 and 25, - Damage to clovers, however, is likely to 'be severe, which will still further decrease the already predicted short crop of hay and pasture. The main problems now facing farmers are to utilize the ground intended for spring seeding and, to provide by whatever means are available as much grain and forage as possible. The Fields Crop Branch of the Ontario Department of Agriculture makes the following suggestions: Where possible, seed oats up to June 15 at 2 bushels per acre. When the oats head out, one of three chOices can. be made, If pasture is short, the oats can be used for .pasture. hay 1s. 'needed, they of be at 'for hay dr :silage. If the :season proves to be favorable, they' can be allowed to ripen for grain, Another alternative to spring grain is to use part of the land for later. seeded crops such as millet for hay or grain, buckwheat, corn for silage, soybeans, White beans, potatoes or turnips for table use for feed. It is not recommended, however, that inexperienced grow- ers should turn to soybeans, white beans or. potatoes. For ' summer pasture; there is nothing much better than Sudan. grass at 30 lbs. per acre, seeded anytime in Juno; oats at 11/2 bushels; and Sudan at 20 lbs, is also good. Since hTfY is almost sure to he short, it would be a good plan to. plant extra acreage of Corn for silage. Also, in some cases it might be advantageous to plant the forage mixtures without a nurse crop and clip once or . twice to keep down weeds. Rape for fall pastute for beef tattle and, sheep can be seeded in July, Whether earlier varieties can be substituted for latet ones de- pends on the seed situation, As far as oats and barley are concerned, the newer varieties are all taken up, but there are still substantial supplies of many of the good" stan- dard, varieties which could be used. The soybean seed situation is rather grim, Varieties such as Capital, which could be substituted for later types, are in short supply but - should be . used where avail- able. ;Jri corn, 'the picture is much better. There will be no shortage of the earlier hybrids. Supplies of buckwheat are lithited, fertilisers with higher nitrogen cOntent 'will stimulate groWth. If -fertiliser has already been purchased, then. an application aratriOnittin nitrate, or similar quick acting nitrogen fertilizer might be -applied, Ample fertility also gives crops a greater chance in, AdVerse seasons, l 4alnevy, Isrl Cala • $".0.9.ki; come ta.s, r • to :twp. bhemicaia ItAnald 1, 42.00; Sis •1145p, brucel, Couites, 10eaaGee.. an drain L., tile for flee Pod- for fur- ;ti Irwin, , $*0;0 0; ;; Associ- neevep 'at pouu- rd atone momnity PACKER WEIS TO DISEDNIIMIE TABLE PAYMENTS IT.oficieht IWO.

Warm' `Weather Aids Growth of Crops Despite intermittent showers during the week, farmers made considerable prog,ress with ,the seeding of corn and white beans reports G. W. Montgomery, agri- cultural representative for Huron County. Some of the early seeded' spring grains were sprayed for chemical weed control during the week. Warm weather during this past week also resulted' in much improved hay, pasture, fall wheat and spring grain growth.
