O'Brien, 'aetegieti�tifnt uUi tularemia', reported ent a ttplo off May ti, Mrs. ed.* 046 those tabs tan,. president, Ontario continues to be the top Province in the Dominion ,in terms of Agricultural production, stated Col. The Hon. T. L. Kennedy, On tario's Minister of Agriculture, re- cently. To back up his statement, Col. Kennedy had a number of fig- ures on our agricultural produc- tion for the past year. Taking our meat supplies first, Col. Kennedy pointed out Ontario was the biggest supplier of both hogs and cattle, with 42 per cent of the hogs and a third of the cat- tle marketed so far this year com- ing from Ontario farms. In addi- tion, we were the second largest producers of calves (28%) and of sheep and lambs (27%), and the leading producer of wool, (24%). In dairy production too, Ontario farmers play a leading role. Sev- enty-three ,der cent of Canadian Cheddar cheese came from Ontario and 33% of the fluid milk, while in butter production we accounted for 26% and stood second only to the Province of Quebec. Figures are not available for the year in poultry and egg production but last year our Ontario poultry- men accounted for over a third of the eggs and almost 45% of the poultry meat • produced in the Do- monion. Fruit and vegetables also play an important part in our Canadian diet, stated Col. Kennedy, and with- out the Ontario output of these products we would certainly go short. Eighty per cent of the pro- cessed tomatoes and almost half of the canned peas and corn are raised on farms, of this great -Pro- vince. The bulk of the grapes and peaches (95% in 1950) and over half the plums were produced in Ontario orchards. At the same time, our production in pears (46%), strawberries (36%) and raspberries (29%), was second on- ly to British Columbia and our vol- ume of apples (17%) was the third largest of any Province, • Then too, we seldom think of Ontario as a major potato produc- er but -the fact is our farmers pro- duced more potatoes than any Pro- vince with the exception of Quebec and our output was greater than that of the three Maritime Prov- inces combined. While Ontario is not considered one of the great grain producing provinces, the fact is our produc- tion of feed grains and fodder is very large and goes a long way to- ward meeting the feed require - Mrs. Sam Storey, McKillop, H o lds Shower for Bride Mrs, Sam Storey entertained on Thursday afternoon and evening in honor of her daughter, Miss Elean- or Storey, bride of last week.

At the close Mrs. Hey and her assistants serv- ed delicious refreshments to the - large number in attendance. menus of our big livestock popula- Lon. This is indicated by the fact we are the largest producers of mixed grains (68%) and second in oat production (17%). Then for roughage we are the leading pro- ducer of alfalfa hay (51%)- and second in output of hay and clov- er (30%). Ontario farmers also produce a great deal of good seeds account- ing for nearly two-thirds of the red clover seed., 70% of the timothy, and 12% of the alfalfa seed. When it comes to the special crops, Ontario is in a class by it- self, said CoL Kennedy. Practical- ly ractically all the soybeans, and over 90% of the husking corn, and flue -cured tobacco are produced here. At the same time Ontario leads in the number of colonies of bees kept (53%) and is second in output of sugar beets (33%) and maple pro- ducts (17%a) - District Weddings Bannon - Meidinger On Saturday morning, June 9, in St Peter's Church, the Rev.
