Expect Apple Crop Show 30 PC Increase The revised preliminary esti- mate of total commercial apple crop in Western Ontario is 642,740 barrels or 30 per cent increase over 1948 yield, accord- ing to the season fruit and Vege- table report of .the Ontario De- partment of. Agriculture. This represents a very slight decrease from the August 15 esti- mate and is accounted for largely by windfall damage caused by high winds on September 1, � particularly in Peel -York, Niagara and Burlington districts, and to 1 a lesser extent by localized cod- ling moth damage. The decrease from last month would have been higher but was considerably ,offset by the in- crease in size of apples generally, clue to very favourable moisture conditions. Colour has also im- proved greatly. Codling moth is becoming more apparent in several districts par- ticularly on later varieties, and some bud moth injuries reported but generally not as troublesome as iti 1948. Scab has been held well in check, and can be cqn- sidered es not serious and quite localized. There was some light hail damage localized in Niagara and Georgian Bay. area, e FOR FINK PRINTING PHONE 4 THE NEWS -RECORD Competitive Prices Personal Service DRUG STORES SPECIAL VALUES and REMINDERS for Thurs., Fri. and Sat, a`Se1t' OINTMENTS For colds, upset stomach. di ti BORACIC, ZINC, etc. I.D.A.
