Bean Growers Hit
Despite an increase of approxim-
ately ata per cent, ht the acreage of
beaus in Elgin County over last year,
the yield will show a decided' drop
because of rhe long drought which
lasted in' that tlietrict for over six
weekst F. S. Thomas, district repre-
sentative, states that the crop will be
only fair, while others interested in
the growing of beans for commercial
purposes are still more pessianlistic.
The effect of the lack of rain is clear
ly evident in many fields in the shrun-
ken bean, the poorly -filled pied and
the vines that are only partially pod-
ded. Elgin his between 8,000 and
10.000 acres in beaus this year. it is
unlikely that ,the yield•, per acre will
be lunch over -`12 bushels, whereas
'elds of - 25 bushels to the acre have
not been uncommon in that district in
the past.

Last year the entire field was a grain
crop yielding about fifteen bushels to
the acre and much infested with sow
thistle. On each of the four plots
a
portion was left unfertilized while alt -
ether part received an application of
4110 pounds per acre. Lt every case
the fertilizer had checked the sow
thistle. Several other experiments
which had been conducted• were dis-
cussed at length by J. A. Carroll, dir-
ector of the crops and markets

methods carried on.

The process will be lengthy and a- to a recent announcement by bir. J,
13. Fairbairn, Deputy Minister, 'The
tdea we have in mind," he said, "is to
get uniformity and tightness of our
overseas fruit shipments. If the New-
castle plant proves successful we will
establish other plants throughout
Ontario. Arrangements are being
made so that growers may have
packing facilities located in their dis-
tricts by applying to the Govern-
ment." The Newcastle district was
chosen chiefly because the apple in -
because the department has been able
dusary there has been declining and
because teh department has been able
to take over, refit and place under
proper supervision a warehouse own-
ed' by growers there. The growers
will -be charged for the actual cost of
packings but not Inc supervision nor
for commission on overseas sales,
which will be handled' by Andrew
'Fulton, the Government's marketing
crim nous. Ewen were the facts at
hand to permit the introduction of
such tariff changes as will provide
a more staple remedy, it would be
useless to bring them foreward now
with the idea of stimulating employ-
m-ent through the coming winter.
They will unquestionably run counter
to Opposition views and are likely to
bring many weeks, if not months of
debate and. when they are carried, it
will take months for their reaction
upon economic conditions to became
apparent in expanding employment.
* * *
The facts upon which' Mr. Bennett
will act in framing his fiscal policy
are not sufficiently complete to en-
able him to proceed this week, or
next, In truth, the conditions to be
met are not wholly known, Nor can
they be until such time as the Econ-
omic
cononxc Conference of the Empire meets
irs London next month and proves the
extent and limitations of actual and
mutual co-operation possible at this
period in trade within the Empire.
Upoti the success or failure of pro
posals for mutually beneficial agree-
ments within the Empire, must be
largely preniised the policy of the im-
mediate future in Canada.
* '* *
One of the greatest exponents of
Empire etsnomic co-operation is in
Canada at the present time. He is
Lord \Melchett, the great industrialist,
of London, England. He is seizing
every opportunity to emphasize the
wisdom andthe necessity of this co-
operation, which he views as the life-
blood of Empire solidarity. Were all
En„iishmen as "sold" on the subject
as Lord Melchett, fir, Bennett would
have little difficulty in finding a per-
manent market for Canadian grain
and other products of agriculture in
Britain. Unfortunately, such is not
the case.

The opening of Parliament, even for
a brisk .and abbreviated business ses-
sion, was attended with customary
pomp. It was shorn of the brilliant
social functiops—the' drawing room
and State dinner—which customarily
follow, but the opening itself was up
to the usual standard of social pag-
eantry. A neve Parliament brings
many new members, and in this res-
pect the present House is outstanding.
While the families of many former
members did not appear, those of even
taking their places for the first time
descended upon the capital en masse.
Gossip :;till flourishes as to the pro-
bable length of the session, W'hi'le
some correspondents are
carrying it
along into months, the bent guess is
that two weeks will 'see it prorogued,
even if closure has to be adopted to
do so. While Governments apply
that pressure reluctantly, they db it
not infrequently. Mr. King enforced
a type of cioslure only last session to
stop debate upon resolutions dealing
with soldiers' pensions.
**
In the present instance the Governe
ment accepts full responsibility for its
emergency measures and the necessity
of permitting leading members of the
Min.iet.ry to attend tate London .conf-
erences. in order that a p•ermahent re-
medy for unemployment mlay be ar-
rived at, well he considered ample Jus-
tification for 'using closure if obstruc-
tion develops.
If the session ends within fourteen
days the cast will be $119,310. Each
day costs $5,115 in indemnities, so
that there is little foundation for the
rumors spread -that the session will
cost a million or two tnild'ian dollars.

New. Plan Launched
The re-establishnvefft of the hog -
raising industry in Eastern Canada by
the liberal utilization of coarse grains
grown in Western Canada, thus also
assisting the West to solve the prob-
lem of marketing its crops, is the un-
derlyingidea of plans now in the
coiirse of development by the West-
ern wheat pools' the Eastern live stock
interests and the packers, with, the
aid of the Ontario and Dominion De-
partments of Agriculture, and the
O,A.C. .A representative of the grain
growers has already been visiting ve-
nous to
i with a v
rf Ontario rious parts o
P
organizing for the distribution t0 live
stock breeders of coarse grain feeds
of which there is now a large surplus.
tied up in terminal elevators. In this
way it is hoped that Canada may re-
capture her forever fine export mar-
ket for bacon, hams' and other pork
products, At the same time a do-
mestic market will be provided for
barley, oats and lower grade wheat
produced in Western Canada, thus
easing the marketing problem of the
'West at times when grains are slow
to move.
According to the plan, these grains
will be Made available at any point in
Ontario at equalized prices and an
assurance given the stock raiser that
he will be able to obtain such grain
every month in the year at a compar-
ative level with world prices it is
hoped that new stimulus will be given
the live stock industry by the inane
oration of this program,

tatives for the month of September
showed that crop conditions had im-
proved considerably for, later crops
-.itch as potatoes and ensilage corn,
arrived too it
but the showers a o late t the
,season to be of much help to buck-
wheat, which is reported as being
more or less a failure throughout
Western Ontario. Decrease in milk
flow was reported in practically every
county, especially in Western Ontario,
due to shortage of pastures. North-
ern Ontario was enjoying good wea-
ther for harvesting and a keen de-
mand for bay was noted.
Overseas Export Resumed
-After' a lapse of two years during
which time price levels for .cattle in
Canada were above an export basis,
the cattle trade with Great Britain
has been resumed. Recently the
Manchester Co.mnnerce. .sailed from
Montreal with 128 head' on order for
Manchester. Some of 'the cattle were
purchased in Toronto, and these, ac-
cording to the •buyer, were known as
light •Manchester feeders. They ave-
raged around 1100 pounds. In addi-
tion to the Manchester line, the An-
chor-IDonaldsout dine is also offering
space and the SJS. Castalian has all
space taken except 50 head. Another
large shipment from a western prov-
ince
iunce is also reperted'aa' moving, These

;Fertilizer tests' with potatoes, grain
crops, canning crops and pasture are
being tried out in South Simeoe un-
der the direction of the Chemistry.
Department, O)A,C., Guelph, and in
co-operation with F. A, Lashley, agri-
cultural representative. These exper,itl
intents have shown up extremely well
and very interesting results are ex-
pected.
Recently a fertilizer field meeting
was held on E. C. W'hite,ide's ferret
near Alliston, where an extensive test
is being carried out on a field of 42
acres of potatoes. In spite of a busy
time for farmers, 175 growers from
Sinecoe and adjoining counties turned
out in the middle of the afternoon to
hear addresses delivered by various
fertilizer experts. Later the party
made a tour of the Alliston potato
district, stopping at T. H. Wilson and
Sons, Inhere demonstrations in spray -4g
ing and dusting were given. • To add
to the success of the program the
Wilson Bros, staged a display of mo-
dern potato anachineery which they
have in use on their own farm.
While ,potatoes are looked upon as
a specialized crop around, Alliston, the
Collingwood district can boast of its
production of tomatoes and other
canning crops. Fertilizer tests on the
Smart Bros. fiarnt near Collingw:o:od
have so far shown antazing result.
ALL WEEK SHE
WAITS FOR,
THIS
HOUR.
How excited - and how happy — she was the
first time she heard her son's voice come over the
telephone from a distant city. Talking with him
was as easy as though he were in the same room.
It was something to remember and to cherish for
days afterwards.
And how much happier she has become, because
Fred comes home by telephone now every week.
1' -Ie calls her every Sunday evening at eighe-thirty.
It is an hour she awaits for and looks forward to
all week long. It brightens days that had become
a bit emptyand lonely with the family scattered.
Fred is happier, too. For the price of a movie
he . gets' something no money can measure — his
mother's voice — a touch of •home. It's a fine
way to start a new week's work.
