Contest for farmers in the barley -growing areas
of Ontario.
INTER -PROVINCIAL AND
INTER -COUNTY AWARDS
To encourage the growing
of improved quality seed
and malting barley in 1946,
the brewing and malting
industries of Canada are of-
fering substantial cash
awards to the farmers of
Ontario who produce the
best barley of certain ap-
proved varieties.
The National Barley Con-
test is being conducted to
help overcome a serious
barley production situation
resulting from an extreme
shortage of seed and steadily
deteriorating quality. By
stimulating quality barley
improvement, Canada's do-
mestic needs will be met
and successful re-entry into
world barley markets as-
sured in the future.

RECOMMENDED CORN HYBRIDS
FOR ONTARIO
Hybrid corn tests were conducted',
throughout Ontario in 1045 under
the direction of the Ontario Corn
Committee. The purpose of these
tests is to recommend and license
those hybrids which show special
merit. A.fow weeks ago the Ontario
Corn .Committee met to study the
information collected from the tests
and if possible to make their recom-
mendations, says Dr. 0, F, H. Buck-

The seasonal conditions through-
out the year were most unfavourable
for corn. Excessive rainfall and low
temperatures delayed planting in
some cases and where planting was
done at the normal time germination
and growth were slow. The cool,, wet
fall retarded ripening and much corn
was harvested with a moisture con-
tent too high. These poor conditions
were not limited to Ontario but were
similar throughout a large part of.
the United States' corn belt. Thus
the results from the tests were not
those that would be expected under
more normal conditions. As the ma-
jority of the hybrids were tested in
1945 for the first time, the Corn
Committee felt that the results of
the tests did not give a true picture
of the behaviour of the hybrids un-
der more normal conditions. The
opinion was that only those hybrids
which had been tested for two or.
more years and had shown real merit
over that period should bo consid-
ered. On this basis three new hybrids
