SOY BEANS IN ONTARIO INCREAS7 P,irATO CROP Its Seed Prodaction Here Is Yet • Rather Uncertain. The Crop Is Good for Hay, Pastore, ' Silage Or Seed --Breeding Plants for Selection --Systematic Field (ConArt:untgeedinbeyntg—nt7raiorlD'epartment of • Agrieuittire.'Toronto.) . Soy beans can be succesefully grown for fodder in Southwestern. Ontario and in the Niagara. Penin- sula, and in favored Areas even far- ther north. The production of seed of the Soy bean in Ontario is a more uncertain problem. In good seesaw, first-class seed of a number of Varie- ties have been produced at Guelph, and in poor seasons no matured seed was obtained from any variety., Soil Inoculation Necessary, Soy beans are very rich in nitro- gen, the seed having a higher protein' content than either coinmon beans or field peas. This plant is a legume, and when planted for the first time should be inoculated with the proper nitrogen fixing bacteria. The Soy bean has varied use, the whole crop being grown for hay, pasture, silage, and green manure, and the aeed for stock feed. In the Orient, the seed Is grown not only for stock feed, but to an even larger extent for human' consumption. For Hay, Silage, Pasture or Seed. Soy beans have been grown for fodder and seed production In the experimental plots at Guelph since 1894, and have been distributed through the medium of the Experi- mental Union to farmers of Ontario each year for the past twenty-three years. During the past five years, the most promising •varieties under test at Guelph have been the O. A. C. No. 211, Ito San, Minnesota No. 15'7, Early Brown and Early Yellow. Sandy Soil Not too Rich Preferred. A sandy loam soil not too rich is suitable- for growing Soy beans. The seed -bed preparation for Soy beans should be much the same as for In- dian corn and they should be planted about the same time. Soy beans uoually produce better results when' planted in drills whieh are about thirty inches apart than broadcasted. It requires three-quarters to one. htushel to plant an acre for seed, and about one and one-half bushels esi • plant the same area for fodder pro- duction. Producing Plants for Selection. A number of plant -breeding selec- tions are under test at Guelph, and it is hoped that before long vareeties will be produced which will'be early enough to mature seed each year, and, at the same time, produce a 'good yield of green fodder. One of the best strains tested at Guelph Is the 0. A. C. No. 211. This strain will be included in the Soy Bean Experimental Union Co-operative Ex- periment, material for which will be sent to any Ontario farmer who de- sires to test this crop in the spring of 1923.—Dept. of Field Husbandry, 0.

Leaf Roll and Mosaic Pire Firmly • Established and Reduce Yields One-third — flow to Detect Dis- eases and Only Way to Centro' Timm. (Contributed by Ontario Department oX Agriculture. Toronto.) HE two most serious seed - borne potato dieeatieS tm Ontario are Leaf Roll and Mosaic. Other seed -borne potato diseases common in the Pro- vince are Black Leg, Rhizoctoma, Blight, Wilt and Scab. Leaf Roll and Mosaic cause a very marked reduc- tion lo the yield, and the fact that these two diseases. are 50 prevalent he Southern Ontario accounts for the poor crop of potatoes that has been obtained. itt enemy parts of the Pros vince for the past four years. Leaf la:al.—The cause of this dis- ease is unknown, Data gathered by the pathologists of the United States and Canada shows that Leaf "'Red' may reduce the yield to about one-. third of the normal crop. Symptoms.—Symptoms of Leaf Roll r are very variable. Affected plants I are always more or less dwarfed and in some varieties the leaves assume a cbaracteristic upright, almost str- ing habit, instead of drooping over in the normal way, Rolling of the low- er leaves is always associated with the disease. The rolled leaves on plants affected with thes disease begin to die early. The harsh, leathery texture of such leaves is a tonstant symptom. The tubers of affected plants are small and are borne gen- erally on very short tuber -branches (stolons) or even attached in a clus- ter to the stem. -Tubers from affected plants ineriably produce diseased plants. There is also evi- dence to show that the disease may spread from plant to plant in the field. Prevention.—The only sure way of avoiding loss from Leaf Roll is to secure fresh seed from districts free from this disease. Fortunately, this is possible. as Northern Ontario and certain sections of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Is- land are comparatively free from this trouble. In experiments carried on in Old Ontario by the Agricultural Representatives with seed potatoes from South Ontario, New Brunswick -and Northern Ontario, it was found that the average amount of Leaf Roll in the plants from the seed from the three different sources was as follows:— Old Ontario 45.5% New Brunswick 5.1 Northern Ontario 1.4 These figures strongly emphasize the desirability of obtaining north - ere -grown potato seed. Mosaic.—The cause of this disease Is also unknown. It has been ob- served in many fields in Ontario. • When severe there is a very notice- able reduction in the crop. Data gathered by the pathologists of the United States and Canada shows that this disease may reduce the yield by one-half. Symptoms.—The foliage of plants affected with Mosaic is somewhat wrinkled or corrugated and mottled with taint, light green or yellowish spots. The stalks of the diseased plants • are often more bare near the ground than tho' of healthy ones, partly, becaese the affect- ed foliage does not spread out and drop down normally, and Partly • because the lower leaves sometimes fall off in the la.st stages of severe attacks. The tubers of af- fected plants are normal-looking and sound and ,their keeping or eating qualities are not impaired. Prevention.—If Mosaic is abun- dant in a field the surest and quick- est way of eliminating it is by ob- taining fresh seed from a non-infect- ed district. Such seed can be ob- tained at the present time from Northern Ontario. General Suggestions For the Preven- tion of Seed -borne Potato Diseases. ' In order to avoid lpss from Leaf Roll a.nd Mosaic, the source of seed is of the utmost importance. Seed potatoes free from these diseases can be obtained from Northern Ontario. Only certified seed, however, can be relied upon. For information con- cerning certified northern -grown po- tato seed write Mr. Justus Miller, Assistant Commissioner of 'Agricul- ture, Parliameaa Buildings, Toronto, Canada. Even certified northern-greirn seed is not a panacea for all diseases. In order to avoid loss from such seed - borne potato diseases as Black Leg, Rhizoctonia., Wilt, Blight and Scab, the following precautions should be • 1. *lea' fa. `ieed smooth, sound tubers, as free as possible from scab, black, hard lumps on the surface, and abnormal discolorations of the skin or flesh. . • 2. Disinfect all seed 'before cut- ting Nvit4 formalin or corrosive sub- limate. The latter substance is the more reliable for the prevention of Rhizoctonia. s 3. When cutting potatoes have at hand two or three knives and a jar conteining a 20 per eent. solution of tormalin. After cutting into a tuber which shows signs of rot drop the knife into the ftnenalin, discard the diseased potato and take a 'efresh knife from the formalin solution for the next cutting. • • 4. Spray every year with Bordeaux mixture for the prevention of Late Blight and Rot. Such spraying is tn.insurance which it is not safe to aeglect. • 5. Rogue the growing crop once or :mice during the eumnier, or at least that portion of a from which the seed # to be saved. This opeiation soasists itt the removal and destruc- tion of any plants showing signs of sucla diseases as Leaf Roll, Mosaic, Black Leg, Rhizoctonia and Wilt. 6. Practice a rotation of crops and if possible plant potatoes after clover sod.—Prof. J E, llowett, 0. A. Col - Fa'stematic Field Arrangement. Many an old farra has waste land, unproductive pastures, irregular field. and fence lines and rundown soil, but still the proprietor does not be- come a bankrupt. The farm gives him board and lodging, and if an early homesteaded area it has no bur- den of carrying charges. When these old farms come into the ownership of young and progressive men, pur- chased at a price in keeping with the present market values, reorganization must be affected. The reorganization will usually consist of a general cleaning up of fields, fences, build- ings and trees and planning anew the old farm area to conform with the modern and necessary farm plan with its systematic arrangement of fields, straight fence lines, drained areas, tidy orchard and tidy farm yard, so - different from the half century of aceumulatioa too frequently seen' about old farm homes. Old farms are ,not modernized or made over in a - Year. Time is required to clear the stone piles and stumps away, to drain the, fields, to. rebuild the fences and ' to repair the buildings. The present tlay. investment requires tat ,every foot of land should be productlie, and that the field arrangement and general farm plan should besuele as .to .retitice the labor to a Minimum. • This is acconeplished by -having the 'farna buildings located in proper re- la:tionship to the fields, the lane and Ahe'leighway.—L. Steenson, Toronto. Marl. .?";s1,. -;.s, • •'..q 4 Marl is a mixture of disintegrated limestone and clay, it contains in varying proportions lime, phosphorus and potassium. There is no better fertilizer for sandy lands than peat and marl, and it is surprising that greater use is not made of this ma- terial on many farms. Small marl beds are common over the Province of Ontario, and this material can us- ually .be obtained for the labor of excavating, Farm labor and teams might be well employed during odd days during the surntaer and autumn period getting out marl for future applications. Crushed or finely di- vided marl can be directly applied to the land at any season of the year. —L. Stevenson, Pure -Bred Makes Best Gain.
