' Ridging in the„„ 11 One of the best methods of killing weeds is to ridge the land in the fall. There are Ton, who ,alaime.tha.tethere is no benefit in the way of killing rootstocks of sow thistle and couch • grass remaining in the soil after summer cultivation. :Others regard ridging as r'suPpleynerttarY to early af- ter -harvesting cultivation in the ee radication -of weeds. At the Kempt- ville Agricultural School in Ontario ridging is considered an important tillage practice, all lend ploughed early and subsequently top worked being drilled up in early fall. An- other advantage of ridging is that it aids in getting on the land a few days earlier in the spring -which is a decide gain on low or heavy land. Settle clays tend to run together if left le a highly- cultivated' state all 'winter, but ridging up corrects this. tentliMilaCs Killinge•The Flies • Most efforts to keep • clear of stable flies have been restricted to spraying the flies on the cows. The suggestion is now made that the flies be fought in the ,stable as well, ' The idea is to spray the flies with a killing spray while they are settled in the walls and ceiling. If this spraying is done in the early morn- ing it will be more effective as the flies are then sluggith in their move- ments. Late afternoon is also a good time. Close the stable and spray with a fine- mist that fills the alt. One part of fognalin in 19 parts of milk or sweetened -water makes a good and cheap spray. The same mixture may be left around in plates for the flies to drink. Keep. ing all manure cleared away from the stable and yards will remove breeding places for the flies and re- duce the nuisance. Where it is not convenient to move the manure to the fields, R should be kept hi a screened shed,, 1932 Farm Figures Depressed economic conditions have not affected the -continuity of agricultural production in Ontario, according to figures just issued by ,the Department. The acreage plant- ed t the principal crops ,amounted to 9,225,700 acres in 1932, as come pawl with 9,176,082 the previous year. Beans,' potatoes and flax ex- perieneti the largest percentage de. anti in aereage, while barley, alf, alfa, bualtwheat and corn showed the greatest increases. The avenge yield per acre was very satisfactory, but gross value of agricultural pro- duction shoyeed a decrease of $45,- 677,000 frern the preceding year, the figure for 1932 being $226,445,000. eroofttVt759,800 lbs. of to-, bacco was grown" in,,,,Ontario in 1932, marking a new high record ,of pro- ducti6n. The outstanding feature of this industry is the increasing 3ere. dominance of -the bright flue -cured type which has increased in produc- tion from ,8,726000 -lbs. he 1928: to 27615,000' hi 1932,. ' An incrcise in the hinnber hor- ses and'Acattlee. on forme in Ontario and a reduction in the number sof she* swine -and • poultry" ;Scanted btetween tst, 1931 and June 1st; 1932. The' total' -value: of all livestock and of ,each species fell during, the year and was due chief- ly to a further drop in values per' .headi The- total value, of live- et'ock -amounted to" $1'4080,000 on June ist, 1932, compared with $171,- 732,000 on June lst, 1931, which re, presents a reductien of 16 per cent: On Thinning Mangels Experiments carried out over a period of eight years' by the Do- minion Experimental Farm; Ottatya, show that the largest crop of min - gels is secured when they are thin- ned to a distance of -9 inches apart. The •repart, also -observes that the system of blocking .plants into small bunches results in the produCtion of many small roots, which are difficult to harvest. • Weekly Crop , Report In spite of low live stock prices, inquiries for sires of high quality and breeding females, particularly ewe lambs, has been greater than us- ual according to it report from Duf- ferin County." Recent showery wea., ther has greatly improved the con- dition of the land for fall' wheat ger- mination. Apple pieking is in full swing in all 'the orchard • districts and a fine crop of clean healthy fruit is being harvested. Pastures have held up fairly well ,in Eastern Ontario and live stock •shotild go in- to stables in good c-ondition. From Leeds County conies the report that more cloves: Old alfalfa are being left for seed than usual, 'the • second cut alfalfa having an excellent seed set. Hulless Oats As a cheap source of high quality feed of particular value for poultry and young stock and one which can be used at once without processing except perhaps grinding, hullese oats has no -equal -writes A. Gordon Skinner, Agricultural ,Representative in Haldimand County. The yields as recorded are most encouraging and compare so favorablywith the ordin- ary hulled varieties as to put the hulless variety in the lead when con- sidering actual pounds of digestible nutrients produced, and after all that is the point in which we should be most interested. A twenty bu, shel crop of hullees oats, weighing fifty pounds .per measured bushel is equal to a yield of forty-two bushels when figured on the basis of 30 per cent hull. Hiltless oats are • very siisceptible to smut and unless measures are taken -to prevent this disease, the loss will be heavy. Treatment is very simple, however, end can be readily made lity any firmer with equipment which he may already have. Cop. per carbonate dust is used and ac- cording to instructions issued' by the Department of 136tany, O. A. C. should be applied at the tate of a- bout two ounces per bushel of seed. A hand operated cement mixer is an ideal piece of equipment for this operation and is in common use in Haldimand. The Formalin treatment cermet be applied to litilleSS Oats as it will destroy ,germtnatioa. Copper carbonate dust, on the ether hand, is safe to use and sed tan be treated - any time when it is‘conv,enient and stored without 'hijury. Trated seed, however, cannot be used for feeding or milling purposes.

The call for incensed facilitiek of sale cones chiefly from those engaged in the liquor traffic, or Who wish to' engage in it. Rath- er., than extend; the prinieple ,of pri- vate profit, it seems to us more de, sirable that the Government should take over the manufacture as well as the sale, and so "control" the busi- ness at its sopree. If this were done, we venture the assertion that the propaganda -which now bothers the Government wohlel come to a sudden end, for lack Of funds and incentive. And until it le done, the campaign in favour of wider and ever wider facilities for the • extension of the business will continue. The counsel of the Toronto Telegram, a staunch supporter of the 'Government, is to let well enough alone, lest tamper- ing with the:Act should prove a dis- appointment as a vote getter. -Orillia Packet Times.

ANOTHER OPINION It looks as is we're soon to hear less about the famous NRA to which President Roosevelt pinned his econ- omic faith. The scheme is not pased on justice and. eventually it must fall. -Exeter Times -Advocate. CANADIAN PROGRAMS WANTED Complaint is voiced that, Canadian radio programs are simply a re -hash of what is heard from across the line -in other words that there is no creative work in Canadian radio pro- grams. The whole system of nation- ally-ovened radio broadcasting here is wrapped around the hope that we will be given distinctive programs. Where is our Eddie Cantor who will sing "When I'm Prime Minister" or our Will Rogers to comment on Can- adian affairs? Or why can't we hear Premier Bennett instead of Presie dent Roosevelt? Of course, national radio is still in its inafncy here, but we believe programs of a dis- tinctively Canadian flavor will meet with much acceptance. -Hanover Post. WHO ARE OBJECTING In a recent visit to Detroit we had an opportunity to get some unbiased opinions of the prospects of success under the NRA. There was remark- able unanimity in the opinion that the •scheme has in it the germs of a permanent success if properly admin- istered. Equal unanhnity was ex-. pressed that the opposition to its administration is coming from that portion of the population which al- ready has, or still has, control of the -wealth of the country, and is not feeling the pinch of want. -Ridgetown Dominion. am:femme, A GODSEND We were driving past a recreation groued the other evening when our companion remarked, "A young fel, low told me that he did not know what would have become of him and a few of his chums had not the mun- icipality kept that ground open and provided facilities for games. He went on to tell me that the games, kept him fit physically till he secur- ed a job." And there you are. That play- ground saved the situation for a good many who needed some form of mental stimulus and some form of regular bodily exercise till work days come again. The same may be said of many a public library that provided wholesome literature that folks cared to read. About the last place for retrenchment these days is skimping places of real recreation, either mental or physical recreation. 011•1014111,1111101 The great consideration is not to have such places too tony for the average youth out of work or toe, highbrow to interest the young fel, love who is not quite equal to tech-. nical reading. -Exeter Times -Advocate; . , DO WE WANT AN EXPORT' ' BACON TRADE? • 'Since Great Britain opened up to • Canada last summer the possibilities. of an immense bacon trade, no effec- tive steps. have been taken to capit- alize it or to whip the industry fit sh-ape se we may take advantage of it. In fact the Canadian bacon in- dustry is slipping, and alI concerned - seem quite content to let it slip. The experiment now being con- ducted by the Ontario Minister of - Agriculture, Honourable T. L. Ken- nedy, will, no doubt, re-establish the • fact that high-quality Canadian ba- • con will bring a fair price on the British market in competition with -- comparable brands of Danish bacon and the product -of other European. countries . But where do we go from - there? Do we really want an export bacon • trade?. If so, are we Canadians - producers, packers and governments -prepared to work and fight for it? - Such a trade will not be handed to Canada on a silver platter. We must . have a plan and make it work, just as the Danes do; and even the little • Baltic states, 'with conditions less favourable than ours, are outstr1p- ping Canada in the bacon market be- cause they have a policy and operate • it. Britain has presented the oppor- tunity; a most unusual one, in fact, when we realize that by controlling • imports the price is raised to British • swine raisers who in turn share the advantage with Canada. Having done • that they cannot be expected to do • more.
