Weekly Crop Report.
Live, stack; generally is reporter! to
be in fairly good condition and most
farmers are depending on using home
grown products forfeed this year.
With plenty: of roots to add succul-
ence to the rations, and a good quai-
ity of roughage avail'a'ble, live stock
should fare'we'll. A report ,from Grey
County indicates that the cold stor-
age -e .plant at Thornbur,Y has been tli=

Potatoes for Feed.
The feeding' of potatoes 'to live
stock provides a very satisfactory out-
let for the lower grades of the crop.
Second-grade potatoes may be used.
as a feed for hugs and also in limited
amounts' for cattle, sheep and horses
as a substitute Inc grain. For . pigs
potatoes should he bo'ile'd, mixed with -
the grain and fed' with other conceit- ('
trates. iA protein supplement needs ago
to be fed with. this. Experiments in- 7
d'ieate that it takes about 4120 .pound's,
of ,potatoes, ,fed' after cooking, to
equal 100 pounlds of coria or barley.
For the best results in ,Swine feeding
the proportion of potatoes in the ra-
tion should not be greaterthan four
pounds to one of concentrates. Pota-
toes may furnish half of the dry mat-
ter itt the ration for cattle and sheep
and one-fourth for horses. Dairy
cows' should not receive more than
about 3'5 pounds per day as larger
amounts may im'p'air the quality Of
butter produced. For ',fattening !sheep,
from two to three pounds daily
should be fed with the grain. For 'cat-
tle and sheep ,feeding, the 'potatoes'
should be chopped and' mixed with •
the grain, and should be raw. They
may be fed raw to 'hogs, particularly
brood saws, if time and labor can-
not 'be spared for cooking.' .»'ui..l
Excellent Work D'one by 'Growers'
Markets Council '
Wonderful things have been ac-
complished in the short time the On-.
bario 'Grower's (Markets Council has
been estab'lished.An enormous in-
crease has been made in the volume
of Ontario fruits and vegetables ship-
ped West in 1931 as compared to
1930. A great deal of this was due to
the progress' made in grating and
central' packing and giving !Western-
ers products paeked in the way they
want them. A promotion and' sale's
representative was maintained in the
West as !well as in the Maritimes and
at least' three times' the quantity"of
Ontario' produce wa"s consumed in the
East as in any previous year. The
grape growers were helped out in
their problems, and although prices
have been low, the grapes, have been
sold without depending or the win-'
eries as .in former years. Progress has
been made toward a better under-
standing with canners, that if they
want the growers!-sepport toward the.
idea of 'Canadian canned goods for
Canadians the prodercers -Must get
proper ,conside'ration.
With orders obtained and in'qu'ired
for more Ontario boxed peaches and
other com'mod'ities than could be de-
livered this season, the•absolute need
from the selling pOiirt of view for the
success of the registration drive now
being featured by the council : was
emphasized .by Charles W. Bauer,
secretary, Ontario Growers'" Market
Council, 10 MclNiab 'Street, Hamilton.
Similar exlperiences as with peaches
were had with cabibages -'and other
co'm'modities. ''The Coun'ci'l is .fal-
lowing the policy of developingnew
markets and extending old markets
for, Ontario prodincts," continued
limier. . "Already a representative is
maintained in ,Western .and Eastern
Canada and in Great Britain. Starting'
late in the season, !only the surface
pos'si'bilities: have been .scratched this
year, but the valuable'point is that we
are helping farmers tosell their pro- .„
ducts in a large way at a low'cost and
in addition' are opening` up new ,and."4
unexpected markets! For example,
this year, for the first time in ntare:
than a decade, over 400,000 ibarrels att`
Ontario apples are expected to ,he
