POTATO CROP ABOVE AVERAGE
IN HURON COUNTY -
The potato crop this year is pro-
gressing very favorably according to
the reports of Mr. H. A. Coon, who
is inspecting potatoes throughout the
County of Huron, for the Division of
Botany, Central Experimental Farm,
Ottawa.
Evidences of "Leaf Roll", "Mosaic"
and "Black Leg" have been ,found in
different parts of the district, but not
to any dangerous extent.
Mr. Coon advocates the growing of
the "Irish Cobbler" pr "Green Moun-
tain" seed, from New Brunswick or
Northern Ontario, that has passed
Government inspection, and found
free from disease. From experiment-
al
xperiment .al work, the seed mentioned above,
has given the Iargest and most sue-
cessful yield generally throughout
the different potato districts in Can-
ada.
Mr. Coon's immediate headquarters
are at St. Catharines and he is under
the immediate direction of W. A. Mc-
Cubbin, M.A., Plant Pathologist for
Ontario.

completed his returns in connection
with the recent registration -and has

tive of agriculture 1,454 canis. of
persons who have signified a' willing-
ness to -do farm work; and afloat of
these people are familiar with the
work of the farmer. T,he following is

The work of compiling the regis-
tration returns for North Hpron has
been completed at the office of the
Registrar H. Bellamy, Dungannon,
and for tie information of the public
the results are published below. A
total of 16.067 registered before and
on June 22nd 7440 males and 8627
females. This is regarded as very
complete. -In fact it exceeded the ex-
pectation of the Registration Board
at Ottawa, who trade aliewance for a
certain percentage not being able to
attend for registration because of sick-
ness, etc. However, due to the dili-
gence of the capable deputies and as-
sistants, most of these were looked af-
ter prior to registration day, with the
result j that it can be definitely stated
there are no more than flftty unregis-
tered persons in the riding toy. In
the townships it will be noted that
the male and female population is a-
bout equally divided but. in the towns

Question 13 on the male cards, "Are
,you Billing to do farm work?" was
answered h'- 1300 men in the urban
centres who are not at present engag-
ed in, farming, but who are willing to
help ut if necessary. The total male
popul tion of the urban centres is
slight y '.over 1800, so that the, per
cent. s` nearly 70. This reflects well
on t e patriotism of the people of
North Huron. Information on these
cards has been extracted by the regi-
strar for the Organzation of Resources
Co ittee of Toronto, who will ,hake
immediate use of them.
