excellent one at that, But the preda-
tory weevil is putting the pea grower
out of business. Froth '82 to moo the
average acreage of peas in Ontario
was 725,535 acres ; last year the ac-
reage was 602,724, and this year it is
532,639. The• general introduction' of
the grass pea may tend to bring this
crop to the frcint again; but at present
peas are going behind. •

largely confined to the little group of
'counties kneed in by the Lakes St,
Clair and Erie. Now there are sixteen
eounties in the province growing over
50,000 acres in this crop. In '92 the
acreage of cern for husking was X81,-
