Potato Yield
Thepreliminary estimate of . the
total yield of potatoes in Canada
this year is 40,260,000 cwt. from
620,800 acres, or 77 cwt. per acre
as. compared with 76 percent per acre
in 1932 and 88 cwt. per acre, the
average for the five years 1927-1931.
Ontario yields is the lowest since 1916
being only 52 cwt. per acre as com-
pared with 61 cwt. per acre last
year, This was largely due to the
drought •which prevailed during the
summer months, particularly in
Southern and Western Ontario.
Celery Growers Organize
For Improved Marketing

ers' Co-operative Limited. To date,
approximately eighty per cent of
the trtal acreage is controlled by
this group.
While the crop will show a de-
crease volume as compared with that
of last year, growers report a sat-
isfactory growth and a promise of
excellent quality. With a sales or-
ganization to handle district to truce
kers, as well as to outside markets)
growers are optimistic as to the
future of their Co-operative. It will
be recalled that, during the last two
years, returns to growers were most
ensatisafctory, clue to competition
amongst growers, and a lack of
some orderly method of marketing.
International Plowing Match •
The International Plowing Match,
staged in Derbly Township, Grey
County, near the City of Owen
Sound, was sucecssful from every
standpoint, according to the Managt
ing .Director, J, Lockie Wilson,
Thousands of interested spectators
attended from all parts of the Pro-
vince. Five hundred and five con-
testants entered the various classes.
The Inter -County Competition at-
tracted special attention, Halton
County carrying off the Farm Tro-
phy for the Team prize. The major-
ity of important manufacturers of
farm implements demonstrated mod-
ern equipment. The Horse Show
open to plow teams was very keen,
and thirty-five teams turned out for
twenty-four cash awards.
The Local Committee and Citiz-
ens of surrounding counties stood bet
hind the Ontario Plowmen's Associa-
tion and this proved a big factor in
making the 1933 International Plow-
ing Match the hest in the history of
the organization.

Nursery Stock Fakirs
"Be on guard against Nursery
Stock Fakirs," warns J. A. Carroll,
Superintendent of Horticultural So-
cieties. "One community recently
parted with several hundred dollars
as advance on nursery stock to be
delivered next spring. It has now
been learned that the firm supposed,
ly represented does not exist."
"There are many reliable firms in
Ontario," states Mr. Carroll, "and
no one should purchase from a stran
ger without being sure of his cred-
entials."

Red, Not Green Apples
Wanted in Britain
"Don't send green apples to
Great Britain just now," is the ad-
vice given to Ontario apple growers
and shippers by Andrew Fulton, the
Commercial Representative of the
Ontario Fruit Growers' Association
in his latest report.
Writing from London, England,
Mr. Fulton says that there is at the
present Ulna a very weak demand
for ordinary quality varieties and
green apples on all the markets in
Great Britain and any shippers who
send over such varieties as Colverts,
St. Lawrence and similar kinds, must
expect low values. The reason for
this situation is the heavy supplies
of cheap English apples of equal
quality selling around 2s to 2 s 6d a
bushel, Even good quality Ontario
Greenings, No. l's, 21-2" up, are on-
Iy making from 19s to 23s a barrel.
A very good illustration of the hea-
vy discount for greenish apples was
shown during the first week in Oc-
tober in the prices realized for No. 1
Wealthy, ranging front 21s to 26s
and the Domestic grade of the same
variety from 13s to 16s a barrel.
Even some No. 1 Wealthy that were
green made very little higher val-
ues than the Domestics. Mr. Fulton
advises Ontario shippers to hold
back for a few weeks such varieties
as ,Greenings and Starks. These var.
reties will be wanted later at better
values.
The British markets are demand-
ing a red dessert apple and paying
satisfactory prices for this class of
fruit. Some very fine Ontario Mc-
Intosh, Wealthy, and Scarlet pippin
have fulfilled this need and have
been well received by the trade.
Recent shipments have been re-
markably free from slacks, indicat,
ing that Ontario shippers have been
taking more care in the packing of
the fruit, .and shipping promptly to
this market. Red dessert Ontario
apples, No. 1 quality, have been
making from 22s to 27s, as compared
with 24s to 27 for Virginian Jona-
thans and York Imperials. It is Mr.
Fulton's opinion that good quality
Ontario red apples will continue to
make satisfactory values, possibly
around 20s to 22s for No. 1 quality,
CROP REPORT
General
Canada this year; has had much
smaller crops than usual of cereals
and hay, due to hot, dry weather dur-
ing much of the summer throughout
the Prairie Provinces, Ontario - and
Quebec. Root crops generally, how-
ever, have been fair to good ant'
there has been a fine crop of apples,
with yields of other fruits mostly
below average. The wheat crop in
the Beanie Provinces has been es•
timated by the Dominion Bureau of
Statistics at 264,000,000 bushels from
25,177,000 acres, or an average of 10.
48 bushels per acre. The crop is
the smallest since 1924, and the av-
erage yield the lowest since 1919.
The wheat crop for all Canada is ea-
tititated at 282,771,0.00 as compared
t' 43
with 6,666,000 bushels last ast year.
Coarse grains are a light crop also,
oats in the 'Prairie Provinces being
estimated at 186,500,000 bushels, a-
gainst 245,726,000 bushels last year
and barley. at 48,500,000 bushels Com-
pared with 63,144,000 bu .b^.ia, The
wheat generally is, of brood nuality
over 85 .per cent of the wheat mar-
keted to date in the Prairie Pro-
vinces has graded No. 2 Northern or
better, In Queblee, crops on the
whole have been satisfactory, despite
loweryields of cereals and hay. In
Ontario most crops have been below
normal. In the Maritime Provinces
most crops were fairly good and the
apple crop was excellent. In British
Columbia crops on the whole were
smaller than usual.
Province of Ontario
The season opened under generally
favourable conditions, but a long
midsummer spell of drought and ab-
normally high temperatures affected
crops and reduced yields. Harvesting
operations commenced earlier than
usual and all grain crops Were gar-
nered in good condition. Yields of
spring grains as a whole were below
normal, with quality generally good.
Early hay was a heavy crop and well
saved. The cut of late hay was
light. The fodder corn crop yield
was well up to average and of good
quality. The Ontario Department
of Agriculture, in preliminary esti-
mates, shows that yields of wheat,
oats, barley and rye have decreased
in each case last year's figures, with
a combined total of 94,400,000 bush-
els and acreage of 3,487,000 compar-
ed with 107,364,000 bushels and acre-
age of 3,487,600 for 1932. Spring
wheat, oats and rye were in reduced
acreage, but fall wheat and barley
show an increase of 23,000 and 5,000
acres respectively over last year's
figures, although in both cases yields
were slightly less. Root crops gen-
erally are below normal, with pota-
toes very poor. Peaches and peace
were below normal and small fruits
a short crop. Grape yields were
considerably below' (those of last
year and crops were reduced through
damage by starlings in the Niagara
peninsula vineyards, where the crop
is estimated at approximately 75
per cent of last year's. Apples are
plentiful and of good guality. The
tobacco crop on a reduced acreage is
below average in quantity and qual-
ity, but is curing well. Pastures
dried up early and it has been neces-
sary to resort to stable feeding soon-
er than usual in some districts. Re-
cent rains have improved the soil in
most areas, facilitating Autumn
ploughing and fall wheat seeding.
The acreage sown to Fall wheat is
considerably increased and present
growth Iooks promising.
SELECTING THE EWE
FLOCK
(Experimental Farms Note)
Autumn is the time when farmers
should inspect their sheep flocks
very carefully . The quality of the
lambs and the profits derived depend
in large measure on the care exer-
cised in selecting the breeding ewes.
In making this selection at the Cen-
tral Experimental Farm, Ottawa,
points such as age, appearance, con-
formation, soundness and fleece are
all considered,
The old ewes should be discarded.
Animals seven years andolder
should not be kept in the flock un-
less exceptionally sound and healthy.
On the other hand, ewe lambs are
generally not well enough developed
to be included in the flock. At the
Central Experimental learnt, Ottawa;
it has been found advantageous to
breed ewes for the fust time as
yearlings. They are more reliable
breeders and better lambs are obtain-
ed.
Choose well grown, healthy and
active indiriduals. , Small and un-
thrifty ewes are likely to produce
slow maturing and undersized lambs
A clear skin, bright eyes and lus-
trous fleece containing plenty of
yolk, generally indicate good health
Condition is also important, but one
must make allowance for the ewe
that has nursed twins.
Since emphasis is being placed on
mutton type it will be necessary to
select fairly low -set animals with
broad, beep and capacious bodies.
Avoid the upstanding narrow -chested
individuals.' They are usually a dis-
appointment as reproducers.
Ewes with broken mouths should
be 'eliminated without hesitation.
They cannot handle sufficient feed
to nourish a 'lamb and maintain
themselves. Quite often through ac-
cident or disease, a ewe has lost her
udder or part of it. ,Such animals.
are unfit for breeding.
The wool is not only a coerce of
income for the owner but also a pro-•
teetion against inclement weather.
Consequently choose 'ewes with corn -
pact, uniformly fine fleeces of fair
length. The wool must extend well
over the body, especially over the
belly.
Selecting good ewes is not a clif-
ficult task, but the seleceion. will be
more effective if breeding and wool
preduction records are available.

GREEN FEED FOR
.POULTRY
(Experimental Farms Note)
Although,an aburidanee of green
feed is, essential for the yopng grow-
ing stock as well as for the laying
hens at all • seasons of the year, it is'
in the late summer and winter, when
the grass roots dry out or are frozen,
that the fowl are often deprived of
necessary mice -dent green feed in
their ration, A short supply of
greens is frequently the cause of 111
health or low production as the right
kind of green feed acts as a tonic
stimulating the appetite, and as a
roughage, securing more nourish -
meat from the feed consumed.
If the birds are confined or ruening
in bare yards in the fall, green alf-
alfa and clover furnish a fine feed
when cut green and larger quantities
will be consumed if it is run through
a cutting box. Cabbage and man -
gels are desirable green feeds for oc-'
casional use but, though cabbage con-
tains an appreciable amount of only
vitamins A, B, and C, all vitamins
are absent in mangels, while all the
known vitamins are found in green
alfalfa and clover.
An investigation at the Dominion
Experimental Station, Harrow, Ont.,
pointed to alfalfa as a most desirable
and economical green feed for winter
use for poultry when fed in the fol-
lowing manner. To retain as many
of the leaves as possible second or
third cutting alfalfa hay was cured
as green as safety from moulding
would permit. The cured alfalfa was
cut in half-inch lengths by the use
of a cutting box, steeped in a tub or
.tank by covering with cold water for
twenty-four hours, drained off, and
fed in butter tubs or sawed -down nail
kegs.
One hundred hens will readily
consume from six to eight pounds
dry weight per day when fed in this
manner, without any undesirable
features in colour of white or yolk
of egg. When this supply was main-
tained with a correct dry mash and
a carefully balanced supply of
scratch grains, cannibalism, feather
pulling, and kindred vices were un-
known.
ONTARIO, EXPORTING
LIVE CATTLE
HEAVILY
Statistics For 'The Past Year Very
Favourable
Over one hundred carloads of On-
tario cattle were shipped for export
during October, Colonel Thomas L.
Kennedy, Ontario Minister of Agri-
culture reported recently. Overseas
shipments were larger than this dur-
ing September while prospects foil
similar if not heavier shipments
during November are good provided
English cattle prices and sterling
exchange remain steady.
Exports from January 1st up to
August 81st last are just as encour-
aging and show that Ontario shipped
overseas twice the number of cattle
than the total forwarded from the
three Western Provinces. The move-
ment is distinctly favourable from
the standpoint of reducing the sup-
posed Ontario beef surplus. Another
interesting price indicator is that
there has been a 60 per cent decrease
this year in feeder cattle taken back
to Ontario feed lots. This condition
coupled with increased export, cat-
tlemen claim, promises higher prices
for choice beef animals next year.
After a survey in September by
the Ontario Marketing .Board which
showed there -were quite large num-
bers of Ontario cattle available for
the overseas market, Colonel Thomas
L. Kennedy announced the Govern-
ment 'had obtained sufficient space
for shippers willing to export their
sleek direct. In addition the Depart-
Ment arranged to have a represents,
tive of the Ontario Agent -General's
office, London, England, meet the
shipments and make a full report of
all sales.

So many enquiries resulted from
the Ontario Minister's; move to assist
the export of cattle that the Market-
ing Board was forced to publish the
information required: by farmers and
shippers.
,Securing ocean, -space has always
been the chief obstacle facing inc11-,
vidual livestock shippers and farm-
ers. This problem hes been overcome
for the present through the Mar-
keting Board's arrangement to se -
cue, space for all wishing to ship
during October and . November. A
shipper can now place a load of cat-
tle on the British market without too
much difficulty providing he snakes
the necessary arrangements early
enough in advance.
Costs of exporting for October
shipment are $24.50 to 525.00 per
head which includes every charge
from shipping point to port of des-'
tinction, in Great Britain brit, `not
aneluding the cost of selling ;in Eng-
land, landing charge, produce, etc. SOUTH HURON PLOW-,

be marked by the shipper but if
this is impossible it can be taken
care of in Montreal if sufficient
notice is given. Markings is impor
tont as cattle are sold by lots ac-
cording to mark. 'Cattle are kept
together in separate lots unless they
are of mixed weights. Over 1000

Expenses of shipping are billed

vances on drafts that enable Cana-
dian agents to arrange. this. No at,
tendants are required to accompany
any of the shipments,
All cattle shipped for export
should be inspected by the local Gov-
ernment veterinary before loading
at local shipping station. This ser-
vice is free. Otherwise the cattle
will have to remain in Montreal for
observation, and if rejected will have
to be disposed of likely at consider-
able loss to the shipper.
