See Beef Poultry' meat prices are likely t remain low during July, blit beef prices are ex. pected to rise as a result of a. strong domestic demand. Here is the detailed outlook from Canada department of agricul. tune economists: Poultry Meat: With large stocks and increased produc. tion, poultry .meat prices, especially chicken and ,fowl, , are Likely to remain low. Eggs: • Current production is -high and prices are eatpec. ted to 'remain ,low until' the seasonal decline in production begins later in the summer. Beef: Strong domestic de. wand, reinforced by Expe vis. itorsis expected to strength. en prices. Pork: • Supplies are ptennrua and prices are expected to re. main steady. Potatoes: Stocks of potatoes have declined to nearly normal seasonal levels and prices are strengthening, with ' further seasonal price rises expected. Apples: Supplies of apples are still available frond cold ., storage at firm prices. ---- ."Other Fruits and Vegetables: Favorable crop reports indicate increased supplies and season. ally low prices' for early sem. mer vegetables and fruit. SOIL The latest test work- ii}. crop production was .. inspected by more than 1,000` -farm ,people during -soil and crop days held at Western Ontario Agricultural School July 12, 13, and 14. The test work being done in weed control on corn , and - soybeans was a major attraction. R. H. Brown, head of the biology division, spoke on the developments in weed control work. "It seems that we have' some advances in weed control in soybeans," said Mr. Brown. "A mixture of two herbicides, presently recommended for use have • particularly • interested growers." Linuron applied as a directed post -emergent spray in corn • looked excellent in the W.O.A.S.. plots and could develop into more than a rescue operation especially where atrazine rest,. dues cannot be tolerated from following crops. Special equip. mint would be required to apply the post -emergent spray por. perly and this equipment is cur. rently available -from comm-e.r. fl 0 tial, dealers. -in fact, it via,,? displayed "among machinery exhibited. SEE MACHINES A line of machinery usedon the W,O.A.S. plotswas on dist play in front of the livestock Pavilion. Most of the machinery used in plot work is redesigned from equipment presently manufactured for farm use. A number of farmers have encountered problems • with magnesium deficiencies in their own corn crops. The new plot work being done at W.O.A.S. in this area attracted a lot • of interest. The symptoms of de. ficiency were demonstrated and some of the reasons or causes explained. .The "pop-up". fertilizer' trials are also being watched closely by farmers according to C. K. Stevenson of the soils 'division. Pop-up fertilizers are designed to provide a sim_lar starter effect in cern to banded fertilizer. Farmers are; inter.` ested in ways and means., of cutting dgwt on the amount of fertilizer appiied at seeding time and it is hoped that pop- up fertilizers can be developed to do the job. Interest was especially keen in the production studies invol. ving row widths and seed rates of corn and soybeans. Demon. strations of new varieties of crops also received careful examination; says A. D. Mc- Laren, head of the Crops div. ision. The• three days of soil and crop tours closed °out Friday afternoon with a special tour for senior year W.O.A.S. students and their fathers. ROOT ROT Root rot has been observed in some areas of some white bean fields. Lower _ leaves appear yellow -but new growth appears healthy. Yield will likely be affected. Potato leaf hoppers have been seen in greater than usual numbers on white beans. Haying is approximately 50% completed but continues to be delayed by. wet, humid weather. • Wheat is turning • quickly. Livestock on pasture are in very good condition, reports D. S. Pullen, associate agri. cultural representative for Huron county. FEDERATION UNHAPPY Farm leaders, who have long p,Fow advocated,,,perfQxr ance.!testing of livestock, now are applying the same yardstick to the pro., vincial government. The Ontario Federation of Agriculture has started distrt button of a shed. -list to show its members what pragre .ss hash -come en its requeststoQueents Park. The requests were presented February 9.in the Federation's annual brief to the provincial cabinet. The checklist marks them either "agreed", •"dis, cussed'', of "ignored". SIX HITSt The -list, which is dated June 28, checks only six requests out of 45 as being "agreed." Another 17 are maked "dis. cussed," with 22 marked' "ignored." OFA President Charles Munor says the purpose of the checklist is to "keep the, Fed. eration's members tip to date on whether the government is meeting our needs as we have outlined them." He says too often in the past, recommendations have been made to' the ,government a and nothing has ever been heard of them. "This time • we are keeping track", he says. - At the end, of the four-page checklist, ,which is a special edition of the Federation's mon. thly news ,bulletin, recipients are asked if they, would like updated copies of the list hand. ed out at fall fairs and plogh. ing matches., IMPORTANT - .. Mr. Monro says distribution of the checklist is not intima. dation of 'the government. He says the requests. presented live months ago in the brief were all important from' the point of view of the, province's. • farmers. • "The premier 'said his min. asters would be getting in touch with,. us- to discuss • these re. quests," he says. ',Five months have passed and most, of the legislators have gone home for the summer. Nearly half our requests are still ignored:.'More than a third of them have only been discussed. Only 13 per, cent `of them have been agreed to." SOIL , - Is your land run down or your crop: yields not quite what they should be?More than 500 farmers are ,expected to be On Down hand to check their cr p yields against test trials being shown at the W.O.A,S.soil and crop days, July 12, 13, 14th, atRidge. "Past management is a big factor affecting present day yeilds according to Dr. C. S. Baldwin, bead ofthesoils div. ision at W.O.A.S. "If your yields ,.are low, by all means start a new (management) "pro. gram to bring then up to a profitable level." Dr. Baldwin points out that corn: yields in particular res. pond, well to nitrogen fertilizer. Rotations too lie by no means out of date. Besides the yield benefits, rotations can help weed and insect control pro. grams and spread the farm work load more evenly through the year. Each day there will be guided tours covering weed and in. sect control trials, row width and variety trials, and fertility tests. The program will start at 1:30 D.S.T.. and tractor, trains will leave from the livestock pavilion at regular intervals -. from 1:30 to 4:30 D.S.T. each day.
