The bulk of the crop is just being sown: Dry wealther has severely inljured the root crap. Turnips are poor and in some districts water core is very prevalent. Potatoes are yielding very light; on many: farms the outpttt will approxi- mate only half a normal crop. The production of beans will ,be •consider- eb,ly 'less than in 191322.

The old negro having finished his visit left the prison, stopping For a word with the guard as he passed out; in a few moments, much to the guard's surprise, there appeared an- other old negro exactly like the one %rho just passed.

(Here is what really h'apened; The lady being an old friend of the guard had stopped off for a visit with him and his faintly, and during the ton- versation that evening, the guard had boasted that no prisoner had ever got by him, While his statement was true the lady was mildly amused at his boast, so the neat day she went in. search of an old negro whom she know- had a son in the .prison. She offered to take hint in her car to visit the prison. She persuaded the old fel- low to put on a suit of clothes over his other clothes. He w•as, eager to get a ride so asked no questions. !When they arrived at the prison the lady stopped to talk a minute with her friend 'the guard, and mentioned the fact that she had picked up the old negro who was visiting his son. After entering the prison the lady talked with the inside guard, wino was a son of the guard outsjde. Then they persuaded the old fellow to give them the outside suit. The old negro went to visit his son and the lady went with the guard, taking the suit of clothes aiid her make-up kit which she had concealed int her purse. Shortly she returned a perfect iinage of the old negro and went out past her friend the guard, stopping for a brief chat. .But when the old negro himself attempted to pass he was of course held. Excite- ment ran xcite-ment'ran high for a few minutes but when the lady again appeared from the outside the guard realized just what. happened.

Value .of Certified Seed +Commercial potato growers whose stock is infested with diseases or con- tains ;nixed varieties would 'find it decidedly advantageous to secure cer- tified seed, It is not the chief purpose of the Department of Agriculture to encourage.podato growers to use certi- fied seed with a view to having their crops inspected for.certification pur- poses because each potato grower has not the necessary patience and thrice or suitable location and equipment for growing certified seed. The abject of the Department rather is to have growers use the best obtainable for their commercial crop and, help .to keep down to a minimum destructive plant diseases, with their resultant serious effect on yields. The use of certified potato seed on many farms would double the yields now being obtained. Ontario is Leader "Bl• a huge margin, Ontario is the first province in Canada from a standpoint of gross agricultural rev- enue," said S. H. Symons, chief of the Statistics Branch of the Departmettt. '`his," he continued, "must come as a surprise to those who have consid- ered 'Ontario primarily as an indust- rial section of the Dominion. The fact remains, however, that the gross agri- cultural revenue of Ontario for 0032 was $226,4146,000, the next province being Quebec with a gross revenue of $129,6516,000. Some idea of Ontario's lead . over tine other provinces will be gained from the fact that the combined gross agricultural revenue 91 Quebec, Brit- New t l\ew Bruitst•icl.

Farmers Must Produce To the man in the street, any at- tempts to increase production- in these days of depressing world surpluses seem a waste of tinse, or even worse. He forgets, says \M r. L. H. Newman, Dominion Cerealist, that the: problem of the individulal farmer differs vastly from that of the nation as a whole, in that the capacity +f the farmer to• car- ry or and pay his way is measured in no small degree ,by the yields he .real- izes per acre. To the farmer,' the acre is his unit of :production. If his aver- age yields ,per acre, .whether converted into milk, mutton, or beef, or disposed of in their ,raw state, are not suffic- iently high to enable him to meet his obligations he must either succumb entirely of .be forced to adopt a start dard of living' which rent'oves him as an important Factor in the problem of keeping the wheels of commerce moving. ,Mrs. Jas.
