THE PROVINCE OF PROMISE .
ONTARIO'S growing gold ... her largest cash ' crop .. .
is tobacco. Its twenty-year development, from nothing to really -
something, has been due almost entirely to the phenomenal increase in
flue -cured tobacco—the most valuable of the three types grown here.
The others are burley and dark -leaf.- This year, a fourth type,
cigar leaf—one thousand acres of it—opens rich, new Ontario
possibilities. Tobacco is a delicate plant and a demanding one,
needing utmost watchfulness and even handmade encouragement
during its complicated cure. Its cultivation means back -breaking,
short -season work with high rewards for all concerned.
Published by THE BREWING INDUSTRY (ONTARIO)
A CORNER ON TOBACCO
The annual Ontario production of
tobacco is about 97,000,000 pounds—
its value around $30,000,000. In the
southwest corner of the province,
some 90,000 acres are planted to it and
the Ontario crop represents nine -tenths
of the Dominion yield. 85% 0 this is
high-grade flue-cured—the less -care-
fully -treated burley and
dark -leaf making up the
rest. It is an industry in
which a few experts pre.
pare the scene for a sudden
uurusb by thousands 0
workers in the crucial har-
vest weeks.

nett, our literature secretary, has a
number of new books for our mem-
bers to read. Mrs. N. Schade spoke
of the Sectional meeting to be held
in our church on -Oct. 24. A commit-
tee was named to make arrange-
ments for the gathering. Mrs. N.
Kirkby's topic was our new study
book "India at the Threshold". She
told us why we should learn more
about India, a few of the reasons
given were: India is quite close to
us now—just 43 flying hours dis-
tant; India is part of the Br. Em-
pire and is anxious to take her place
among nations of the world; India
has many christens and with the
help of our W.M.S. and other socie-
ties we hope to send many mission-
aries to help Christianize more of
India's counitless millions. Meeting
closed with prayer.
