SEAFORTH, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 13O.
SEAFORTH FALL FAIR
With ideal weather conditions for
both days, a record entry list in every
class and the..largest attendance of
an years, in many y , Seaforth
Fall Fair held on Thursday and Fri-
day of last week was an outstanding
success.
The sheep exhibit was the largest
ever exhibited in Huron County. In
fact the Government judge pronounced
it superior to that of the Western
Fair and in point of quality, equal .to
the Canadian National.
The exhibit •of cattle was •also a
reeord one. In• this class there were
some outstanding entries, one being
the two year old heifer exhibited by
Mr. Baden Powell, of Seaforth, whicn
the judge said might be equalled -in
Ontario, but could not be beaten. An-
other in the same class was the calf
exhibited by Jack Dixon, which won
three prizes: Open class for best
Jersey calf, Eaton Special and prem-
ium for best calf. This owner and
his calf also captured the calf race,
which was one of the 'amusing fea-
tures of the afternoon's programme.
In the horse classes, and in fact,
in every other class of live stock there
was a large entry of quality animals
that would be hard to beat in any
section of Ontario.
St. James' Separate School, 'Sea -
forth, had the largest number of prize
+winners, of all the schools exhibiting.
The following is a list of the suc-
cessful prize winners:

NEWS AND INFORMATION FOR
THE BUSY FARMER
All farm products were reported
moving slowly on the market with
prices low the middle of September.
Peaches were selling at 75 cents to
$1.00 per 11 -quart basket; eggs,
fresh firsts, 33 cents per dozen; wheat
70 cents per bushel; barley 35 cents
and oats as low as 27 cents per
bushel; potatoes $1.00 to $1.40 per
bag and cheese 131/2 cents per pound.
Forty-three bushels to the acre was
the yield of wheat at the Ridgetown
Experimental Farm, according to
Superintendent W. R. Reek. This
Farm makes a specialty of distribut-
ing seed grain to farmers in the dis-
trict. This year's wheat crop, thirty-
four acres in all, has been sold. The
crop of thirty acres of beans has been
spoken for, to be taken away next
March. There is a heavy demand for
brood sows. Ninety-three spring pigs
were raised on cheap grain this year
at the Farm.
Proper l'otato Storage.
Cold storage experts advise that by
proper curing most of the damage
caused to potatoes held in low tem-
perature storage can be eliminated.
It is found that the more serious in-
juries come from the placing of tubers
in storage'+ temperature around 32
degrees F. within two or three days
of harvesting. When placed in pre-
liminary storage•at temperatures be-
tween sixty and seventy degrees F.
for a period of six days potatoes have
an opportunity to properly -cure."
They may then be placed in storage
at low temperature without serious
injury for the balance of the storage
season.
Weekly Crop Report.
Reports f r o m representatives
throughout the province indicate that
due to long -continued drought, the
acreage sown to fall wheat this year
will drop almost 50 per cent. below
the average. In many (sections it
has been al,most impossible to plow
and where cultivation has been ac-
complished there is not enough mois-
ture to sprout the seed. The corn
and root crops have also suffered sev-
erely during the dry weather and
many farmers have been filling their
silos early because the corn in drying
up and depreciating in food value.
Grain yields throughout the province
have been generally 'good. Wheat has
yielded from 25 to 40 bushels per
acre and oats from 45 to 80 bushels
per acre. Several counties report
alfalfa seed yields of from 2 to 10
bushels per acre with the quality ex-
ceptionally high. Lincoln County re-
ported a very large crop of peaches,
while a prince Edward County re-
ported tomatoes to be not more than
half a crop.
There is a smaller area in Western
Ontario under after harvest cultiva-
tion this year due to dry weather.
Eastern and Northern Ontario, where
more rain has fallen, report that
farmers are paying more, attention
to summer fallowing and after har-
vest • cultivation and are making an
honest effort to keep in control nox-

Plowing Match Next Month:`
The next great agricultural Sent
of the near future in Ontario rs the
International Plowing Match anvil • •"
Farm Machinery Demonstration. This •
feature annual match, which brings
together the best farm implement
men in the country, is scheduled for
October 14th, 15th, 16th and 17th on '
King's Highway No. 7, near the city
of. Stratford. J. Lockie Wilson, man-
aging director, has been hard at work .
for the past few months and the four
days of plowing this year promise to
outclass any previous edents in the
matter of entries and contests. The
awards are very generous and every
farmer in the country is eligible.
Too Many Fires.
The threshing season of 1930 has
been most disastrous since the incep-
tion of the Fire Marshall 'Office in re-
spect to fires caused to farmers' barns
and dwellings through threshing op-
erations, Between August lst and
September 10 reports were received
of 23 separate fires resulting in the
destruction of six dwellings and 27
barns with a large number of small
outbuildings, involving a loss of ap-
proximately $225,000, of which about
$125,000 was recovered from fire in-
surance; the balance of $100,000 re-
presents actual loss to the farmers
whose property was destroyed. Most
of the fires arose within the separator
or the blower pipe. The Fire Mar-
shal intends to request the passin,
of an enactment to ensure greater
safety in this regard. For the pur-
pose of considering this legislation, a
meeting will be held on Friday, Oct.
10th, at 10 a.m. In Room 340, Main
Parliament Bldgs., when all interested:
parties are invited to attend.
The department is shipping a car-
load of saws to Ailsa Craig district
towards the end of October with a
view to bettering the stock of that
district. The stock were selected
from Ontario packing plants by the
Dominion swine grader.
Sets Good Example.
The township of Hallowell in Prince
Edward County has set a good ex-
ample to other municipalities in the
way of enforcing weed control. A
petition drawing! attention to the
menace of noxious weeds generally,
and of the sow thistle in particular,
and asking for effective co-operation
in the complete eradication of the
"deadly peril," was circulated and re-
ceived the signatures of over a hun-
dred farmers in the township, includ-
ing endorsation of the reeve, deputy
reeve and two councillors.
Winter 'Wheat Experiments.
A total of more than 300 varieties
of winter wheat consisting of hybrids.
and plant selected strains have been
under test at the Ontario Agricul-
tural College for a period of five
years or more. The Dawson's Gol-
den Chaff (0.A.C. 61) and the 0.A.C.
No. 104 still continue to be the two
leading varieties of winter wheat un-
der test at Guelph. In the average
of that last eleven years the Daw-
son's Golden Chaff (0.A.C. 61) pro-
duced a yield per acre of 65.4 bushels
per annum and the 0.A.C. No. 104 of
63 bushels of grain per acre per an-
num. The highest yielding variety
of red -grained winter wheat in the
experiments which was the Imperial
Amber (0.A.C. 92), produced an av-
erage yield of 57.2 bushels per acre.
The Dawson's Golden Chaff and 0.
A. C. No. 104 varieties of winter
wheat are grown on more than 80
per cent. of the winter wheat land of
the province.
Wool Salvaged.
There will be little loss to those'
sheepmen who shipped their wool to.
the Canadian Co-operative Wool
Growers Ltd., as a result of the fire
which completely destroyed the Wes-
ton warehouse a short time ago. Very -
little of the 3,400,000 pounds of wool
in storage at the time was burned,.
though all the wool was seriously dam-
aged by scorching and smoke, and.
further damage was caused by water
poured into the building to quench
the blaze. To check heating, which
imm.ediaitely followed jsozkinig, the
wool was removed to a nearby field*
and spread out loosely in the sun to
dry and this quick action resulted in•
a salvage of well over three Million
pounds of wet and damaged Wool.
The sale of this, added to the ins ir-
anee carried, offi rials state, should:
balance a reasonable market value of
the wool at the time of the fite. On.
the building and business o0erations
for 1930, however, there will he .n'.
lose. It is expected that a neiw Wart
house of absolutely fireproof ob'ns k
tion will be elected in ,time to
care of next season's crop,
