Field Crop Report
Bruce County reports its wheat
ample generally poor to fair with an
occasional field yielding well with
good quality, In Dufferin the crop is
badly ,affected with suet and in Grey
a similar' condition has made the yield
disappointing. Barley and oats pros
pacts in that district are exceptionally
good. Rust also did much damage in
North- SimCoe. In .the latter county
the crop of oats promised to be the
best in five years, but a general out -
!break of 'smut and army wormanroade
Wave reduced prospects to average.
'Wheat is running up to 40 bushels
per acre in Brant, depending on the
winter killing and rusting. Heidi.
wand also has a wheat crop running
40 bushels to the acre or better. The
market for, the new grain in Lambton
is very low, prices quoted being: New

id in Lincoln and has made tremend-
ous growth recently. Some crops in
Middlesex have been badly lodged bY

:'‘I'' Fruit Crop Report
Total cherry production this season
is estimated at 123,600 bushels as
compared with 101,900 in 1937. A 3
per cent decline in production of pears
is indicated, with conditions so far
'very favourable for good sizing and
clean fruit production. Tree and
fruit development of peaches is excell-
ent, with minimum of fungus or ire
sect injury apparent. While some
Orly varieties have shown split -pits,
the condition is not expected to be
more serious than usual. The prelimin-
ary' forecast of yield places the crop
at 615,200 bushels, as compared with
52+5,700 bueheis last year. While the
set of plums is very irregular, the
existing'crop is now developing
well,
with only normal drop having taken
place. Pests are well under control.
Production is expected to be about the
same as a year ago. Condition of
grapes is excelient for good develop-
ment of berries and vine growth,

An official visit by His Excellency,
Lord Tweedsmuir, Governor-Geheral
of Canada, to the International
Plowing Match at Minesing, near Bar-
rie, Ont., on. Thursday, October 13th,
is announced by J. A. Carroll, Man&
ger of this annual agricultural event,
the greatest plowing match not only
in the British Empire, tut in the en-
tire world.
LastY ear the attendance ttendane was over
100,000 at .the four-day event and this
record, it is expected, will be shat-
tered this year. The dates are Octo-
ber llth to 14th inclusive,
"There is no doubt" states Mr,
Correll "that the invitation of the On-
tario Plowmen's Association was ac-
cepted by Itis Excellency because of
his genuine interest in all phases of
agriculture and particularly good
plowing and fine bones."
Scotland, thebirthplace of Lord
Tweedsmuir, is tteh in plowing lore,
and .her soy?; weil•aki])arl in the art

cultivation in every part of the Bri-
tish Empire, particularly Canada,

matches have been held.

modern and powerful tractors in op-
eration on a busy day, double that
number, about 140 competitors, will
use strong reliable and well-groomed
horses, the cream of the plowing
teams in Canada. "A Horse Show is
a special feature of the Match" states
Mr. Carroll.
Summer Care for Brood Sows
An abundance of good pasture dur-
ing the summer greatly reduces the.
cost of .maintaining brood sows.
Crops such as rape or clover supply
needed minerals, vitamins and other
nutrients. The exercise obtained in
grazing also contributes in no small
measure to Me general health of the
breeding stock, with consequent ben-
eficial results at farrowing time.
Sows raising only one litter per year
need but little grain after the pigs are
.weaned if good pasture is provided.
While it is mistake to allow sows to
become . too tat, it is equally unwise
to allow them to become too thin.
Enough grain should be given to keep
the sows in thrifty condition, and in
any event they should get some grain
such as a mixture of ground oats,
ground barley and middlings, supple..
mented .with skim -milk or fish meal,
for 'two or three weeks before breed,
ing time in the fail. Sows raising two
litters per year ' naturally require
more feed than those raising only one,
but if early spring and fall litters can
(be aecomodated, the average cost of
rearing pigs to weaning age will :be
lower if two litters per year are rais-
ed.
Market hogs make faster gains
'when confined to a pen, but sow pigs
which are to be reserved for breeding
should be given good pasture to en-
sure good vigorous breeders. Tbey
Should be fed liberally to ensure sat
isfactory growth' when they are on
pasture, but if their yard is small and
the gilts get only a limited amount
of exercise, heavy feeding should be
avoided:

HOLLAND WHEAT MARKET
With no currency restrictions, no
high import duty, and a compara-
tively low milling percentage for the
home grown product, the Nether-
lands is one of the few remaining'
purchasing markets for foreign
wheat. From January to May, 1938,
imports of wheat from Canada to-
talled 784,600 bushels.
NEW ZEALAND WHEAT
New Zealand imported $39,996
worth of Canadianwheat during the
first three months of 1938. In New
Zealand, the government is the . only
authorized importer of wheat and its
policy is to import no more than is
absolutely necessary and to make the
country ultimately self-supporting.
Canadian wheat is imported for
blending purposes and Australian
wheat chiefly for feed purposes.
AUSTRALIAN HARVEST
The area under wheat harvested in
Australia in 1937-38 is now estimat-
ed at 13,700,000 acres and production
at 186,900,000 bushels. Correspond-
ing ;figures for 1936-37 are 12,3000-
000 acres and 151,400,000 bushels.
The estimated average yield for
1937-38 is 13.62 bushels per acre, or
2.19 bushels in excess of the 10 -year
average.

THE FIRST SHEAF
The O. A. C. Review, published by and in the interests of the
Student Body, Guelph Agricultural College, contains an interesting
article on pioneer life in verse written by Professor O. J. Stevenson.,
The writer has the following to say regarding his contribution to
the midsummer edition of this publication:
As my contribution to the programme of The Royal Society, which
met this year in Ottawa during the last week in. May, I undertook
to write a series free -verse e s o f f ee arse poems,so
called, on Canadian Life
and Canadian Scenes. One group of these studies in verse had
for general theme "The Wheat Harvest," andincluded among other
sketches a brief narrative telling of the harvesting of the first
sheaf of wheat in the Huron tract. The VanE'gmond farm, the
scene of this story is on• the north side of the Guelph-Goderieh
highway a few miles beyond Seaforth.
The poem is not of very high literary quality, but since it tells
the story of an actual event' in Ontario pioneer life, it may be
of interest to some readers. At all events it satisfies the request
of the Editor of the Review for a contribution for the Midsummer
number.
Across this little stream, on yonder slope,
Where the long highway mounts toward the west,
Stands the Van Egmond farm. To see it now
You would not dream it had been famous once, -
Like any other farm, -brick house and barn and Beide,-
And yet in the old days a hundred years ago
Upon this spot of ground a deed took place
That made it memorable.
This tract of land was still unsettled then,
Dense forests where these fertile homesteads stand;
And when a wagon track must be cut through the woods,•
Van Egmond saw his chance. Belgian by birth,
'A conscript in Napoleon's wars,
Ile braved his way from Moscow through the storms,
And fought at Waterloo upon the British side,
But later found his way to the NeW World;
And, fighter still, he chose the strenuous task
01 hewing out this road for pioneers; •
Teamster and -woodsman, master of handicrafts,
This was his high adventure, his heroic deed,
And where these fertile fields stretch league on league,
This highroad is a brave man's monument.
But first he chose a farmstead for his own,
And built an inn, where settlers might find rest
And shelter on their journey through the woods,
Be teamed their household .goods by bog and corduroy,
When the great trek began into the Huron tract, -
To them the Promised Land,
And next he cleared his plot of ground
In the great wilderness; and mid the blackened stumps
He planted his first wheat, broadcasting it
To music of his own rejoicing heart.
The earth was glad, with springtime in the air;
The 'summer came and went, with sultry days;
The wheat grew rine; and when the breeze
Rippled it into golden waves, Van E•gmond's heart was glad.
Then through his brain there flashed a sudden thought
That he might'' fix a day and make a feast
To ` celebrate the garnering of the wheat.
Neighbours werenone,-nolle but the forest trees;
But word was sent to friends in the new town '
Twenty Iong miles away, to bid them come •
Make holiday, rejoice, and share in this festivity.
Tiger Dunlop, -no company complete
Were he not there,- his jovial six feet three,
Flaming red hair, and laugh heard full a mile away.
Young Strickland too, slender of form, poet at heart, '
Graceful historian of these joyous days, i " And other welcome friends,
Thesun shone down upon that August afternoon
As if to bless the wheat, promise and pledge
Of prosperous years in this new land.
At length the hour arrived, and host and guests
Touched . with a sudden mood of awed sblemnity,
Moved outward to the field. -Madame Van Egmond then,
Taking the sickle, stooped and cut the grain;
And then they:. drank the health of this new land,
And woke the echoes with their ringing cheers.
11 And now within the house, its rafters framed of unhewn logs,
They sat down to a dinner such as ne'er
The old world epicure has yet enjoyed;
Wild fowl and squirrel, trout fish snared,
i With fruit in season, luscious brambles
`1 Gathered at dawn and washed with morning dew,
i Warmed with the wine, the ready jest flew round,
. - With merriment, -till the long shadows fell across the wood
xN And from the clearing called the whippoorwills
Mingling their notes within these wooded solitudes
With peals of laughter at the Tiger's tales..
Still ringing dawn the trail.
