Survey Now
Out For Farmers
The form for the June Survey -
of crops and live 'stock wasto be
in the hands of 'Ontario farmers
about June 1. This survey is car:
ried on annually by the Statistics
and Publications Branch of the
Ontario Department of Agriculture
in co-operation with the Dominion
Bureau of Statistics.
Each form in itself is strictly
confidential, has no connection
with taxation of any kind and is
used only to obtain group totals
and 'averages for making estimates.
In this . way each schedule helps
to form the picture of agricultural
conditions in Ontario,
In a country in which agricul-
ture is so important, it is hardly
necessary to stress the value which
farmers, business, government and
the public in general place on the
timeliness and accuracy of various
crop and livestock estimates. The.
Department of Agriculture is con-
stantly striving to improve the ac-
curacy. of these estimates and' for
this purpose needs the co-operation
of a large number of farmers in
carefully filling out and returning
these survey schedules promptly. •
The assistance of all -farmers in
this project will be greatly ap-
preciated.
in the respect that it is -possibly
the only one in Canada used for
hatching quails' eggs.
The sanctuary,which has been
managed by Manly F. Miner since
the death of his father in 1944, is
supported financially by bird lov-
ers from various parts of the cont-
inent, and by grants from the On-
tario and Federal governments.
Ontario Hydro's frequency stan-
dardization program in this section
of Essex County is scheduled to be
completed in July 1954.
