Big Value in Fertilizers
Commercial fertilizers when ap-
plied to various crops in conjunction
with good, farming methods give big
returns. Phosphates increase yields
of almost all crops on almost all
types of soil in the province. Potash
pays, especially on the sandy soils.
Nitrogen for most farm crops should,
as far as possible, be obtained for
growing legumes.
•
Crop Yield Average
g
e
The estimated yield of fall wheat,
spring wheat, oats, barley, rye and
peas in Ontario for the year is given
at 114,140,939 bushels as compared
with 135,877,244 bushels last year.
The total acreage in Ontario for
these grains was 367,881 acres less
than last year. Oats are lower by
10;5000,000 bushels than last year..
The potato crop was belownormal
and turnips and rnangolds, due to a
continuous drought are smaller in
size than usual. Small fruits proved
to be a light crop, but winter apples
are plentiful although small in size.
The tobacco average was 30 per cent
below 1928. 'Taken all in all, the'
crop yield is an average one, and the
quality good.
Grading is Vital
Tite fact that more than 180,000
acres lof potatoes are grown in On-
tario every ydar, it is highly 'impor-
tant that wan efficient marketing sys-
tem be perfected. This means that
every grower should co-operate in
properly grading his potatoes and
placing tltent on the market itt this
way can the competition of the ;out-
side product be ,net.
Weed Advisers
It is the opinion of •the provincial
weed inspector that when councils
are selecting inspectors they should
choose "weed advisers" rather than
"policemen," Excellent progress has
been made this.year and it wasfound
this was most pronounced where a
man was chosen as inspector, who
was enthusistic about weed. control
and could advise farmers 'how to re-
duce their weed menace. • Much bet-
ter to encourage a pian to properly
prepare a field than to come along
late in the season and order the crop
out because of weed infestation.
New Interest in Field Peas
Thirty or forty years ago Ontario
farmers
re annuallyabout half a
million acres of field peas, but when
the wevil became troublesome, inter-
est in the crop gradually waned un-
til there was less than 100,000 acres
grown. However, during the past
few years peas have been compara-
tively free from insect pests and the
acreage has been increasing a Tittle
every year.
Renewed interest has been obtain-
ed also by the development at the
Ontario Agricultural College of an
outstanding variety known as O. A.
C. 181, which is now being distribut-
ed .through the Experimental Union.
This variety is a cross between. Prus-
sian Blue and White Wonder and is
a fairly early ripening pea. Under
a ten-year test at O. A. C it has
yielded about 225 per, cent. greater
returns than most common varieties.
Several farmers in the Guelph dis-
triot have reported' excellent crops
with this variety.
Buy Cet;tiified Seed, Potatoes Now

haps, than any other single' factor to

er will arange for his supply now.
R. D. Nodwell of Hillsburg, one
of the best known producers of qual-
ity producers
ity potatoes, when acting as field
roan .fo.r. the Crops and Market
Branch daring the past summer, had
an excellent opportunity to observe
differences in potato crops. He says
"My eyes were opened to the serious
state of the potato business on the
ordinary farm. I was amazed at the
amount of black leg and rhizoctonia
in average fields. In niany cases the
loss from these two diseases alone
would run from 10 to 25 per cent,"
This meant to many farmers this
year a loss of from $10 to $40 per
acre," Certified •seed not only re-,
loss the disease but increases
the yieldand quality.
No fanner can afford to, use poor
seed,
