surprised at the -size of ,the jas and
at the speed witch which they travel.
The Americans and -some of the Exe-
ter hunters became acquainted while
hunting 'Pheasants a few weeks ago

were invited to Exeter for a rabbit

Value of Ontario Crops
The gross value of agricultural pro-
dulticn in Oario for the year 1938
is ,expected to be about $365,000,000
as compared with $358,000,000 ,_bast
yeah• and $248,000,000 in 1932, the low
point of the depression. The value
of field crop production shows a re-
duction of 516,000,000 as • the 11 per
cent. gain in volume of production
was not sufficient to offset the sharp
decline in prices. Average prices
since harvest this season are 19 per
cent. below the average of pricers ob-
tained for the 1936 field crops. -The-
-revenue obtained' from livestock,
dairy products, tobacco, pou],tlay, fruits•
amid other agricultural pmoduots is ex-
pected to reach $215,000,000, as com-
pared with $192,000,000 ,in 1936. As
the bulk. of field Drop production in
Ontario is fedi to livestock and mar-
keted' in this form,, the improvement
in total farm purchasing power for
1937 probably approxi1nated -20,000,-
000.
20,000;000. The outstanding feature of the
agricultural sitil'ation this season is
the recent sharp reaction in prices.;
Since June, the farm price of oats
has declined from 61 cents to 43'
cents per bushel; barley from 83
cents to' 59 cents; buckwheat from
90 to 59 cents, and fall wheat from
51.24 to $1.01. Hog prices have drop-

a breeding hen Should be rested, it

the -teeth breeding hen implies. Al-
though it is a common practice to
mate pullets and use them for breed-

breeding hens as being at least one
year old.

of the most impor:ten4 With poultry

poultrymen to consider the returns
