Brant County Dairy Show
The annual Brant County Dairy
Sit.w Will be held in co-operation
with the Paris Agricultural Society
on September 20th. Classes are pro-
vided for four breeds of dairy cattle
with a prize list of.over $1,000 offered.
In 1029 at this show there were 220
cattle sh.•wu from some of the out-
standing herds in Western Ontario.
Valuable Meadow Results
God ordinary meadow mixtures of
clover and timothy can be increased
as high as 49 per cent. green weight
by proper fertilization. This is the
average result of ten carefully con-
ducted tests throughout the province
:eat summer by the Department of
Chemistry. stry. In these tests, one-half
ace blocks of meadow were measured
off during early spring and fertilizer
of various mixtures was applied. In
111(..t cases the fertilizer was sown
with the drill.
The average gain for the entire test
was a little over a ton per acre greets
weight, This showed a nice return on
the money invested in fertilizers. The
addition made to the meadows in these
tots averaged about 300 pounds per
acre, or represented an investment of
five to six dollars per acre.
Aid to Fruit Growers
As an aid to the overseas market-
ing of Ontario's surplus fruit crop,
the Ontario Government has decided
to come to the aid of the Fruit Grow-
ers' Association insofar as .guarantee-
ing sufficient monies to the banks to
allow proper financing to the ship-
pers. This step has been taken to al-
low absolute independence in market-
ing and will mean that with the as-
sociation in a position to finance .ex-
port shipments, a large nuanber of
shippers who have been barred in the
past will now be able to take advata.-
tage of the services of Mr. Andrew
Fulton, the association's representa-
tive in Great 'Britain, As a further
step in organizing the province's fruit
trade, the appointment is announced
of Kenneth Crews of Trenton to as-
sist P. W. Hodgetts, director of the
fruit branch and secretary of the as-
sociation. He will keep constantly in
touch with the shippers in advising of
market conditions and acting as liai-
son officer between the shippers and
Mr, Fulton. Further, a series of ex-
periments will be undertaken at once
with a view to controlling the "apple
scald" disease which annually causes.
tremendous loss to Ontario shippers.
Crop Conditions
Recent reports from agricultural
representatives would indicate that
the yields of fall wheat and spring
grains have been exceptionally good.
Weather conditions have been ideal
for the storing of grain and for stook
threshing which is becoming very po-
pular, Crops such as potatoes, beans,
sugar beets, corn and tobacco, will
have light fields due to lack of rainfall.
.The yields of nil frfuits especially ap-
ples and grapes, will be detrimentally
affected, •Pastures in many sections
were severely burned and many dairy-
men, especially in Western Ontario,
have Kaci to resort to feeding their

cattle grain and ensilage. This ex-
pense, in addition to the low price
paid for milkat the cheese factories
has caused the farmers. no little con-
cern. The shortage of pasture has al-
so increased .the shipments of cattle'
and lambs, with the result that many
cattle will be sold at aloss.
Doing Valuable Work
The work done at the Ridgetown
(Experimental Farm in selecting and
propagating a variety of beans that is
freer from disease and gives a much
greater yield than varieties formerly
grown, has alone justified' the estab
lishmen,t of this- farm. This is . only
one (branch of work undertaken there
which is of substantial benefit to indi-
vidual farmers of Southwestern 'On-
tario and to the. province as a whole.
Valuable work has been done with to-
bacco, canning factory crops,' cereal
grains and hogs.. Besides this, W. R.
Reek, the superintendent and his
staff have been instrumental in help-
ing along the good work done at the
Agricultural Vocational School at
Ridgetown.
It is interesting to .note that the
farm was established at a time when
the bean growers were discouraged
and disease was taking a heavy toll.
As little or no work had been. done
in selection, the seed had become run
out, resulting in a poor yield. Beans
have long been an important cash
crop in Kent and Essex. Mr. Reek
was able to get some selected bean
seed from Michigan, which he propa-
gated the first year -and placed in
small lots on neighboring farms the
second year.
The variety is known as robust and
itis in general use at the present
time, being resistant" to disease and a
heavy yielder, There are 30 acres f
sown to beans on the farm this year;
and this will go out for seed. On the i
plots special work is done in selection
to further improve the strain.
A Contrast in Weather
The contrast in weather conditions
during the present summer in South-
ern and Northern Ontario and in Que-
bec has been of a most astonishing na-
ture and holds more than a touch of
irony for farriers generally. In the
north and in Quebec the rain came
in such copious quantities that crops
were injured, seriously in some dis-
tricts. In old Ontario, particularly
in the southwest, crops sweltered day
after day under a merciless sun for a
period of nearly two months. Rain-
fall figures for July afford the most
striking illustration of what the coun-
tryside has borne. In Southern On-
tario the rainfall was .53 inches,
whereas the average figure is 3.5 in-
ches of moisture. Quebec, on the oth-
er hand, had the greatest rainfall in
thirty years. The total for the month
was 5.6 inches as competed with a
normal 3,7 inches.
Use Plenty of Litter
It is good policy to use an abun-
dance of clean, fresh litter in . the lay-
ing pens and a poor economy to res-
trict the quantity even when litter
must he purchased. A laying hen is
always a happy hen and a hen cannot
he happy unless she is busy most of ,
the time. Litter on the floor, .spec-
,ally if it is fresh and clean, is an ex- .t
cellent means of keeping the layers s
husy even though all the grain is be-
ing fed in hoppers and none is thrown
on the floor. One of the best mater-
ials for litter is wheat straw, which is
not 00 stiff as rye straw and does not
break a readily as oat -straw. Litter
absorbs considerable moisture from
the droppings and from the air of the
hen house, and should be changed fre-
quently. Mouldy straw is almost cer-
tain to cause trouble and should never
be used in poultry houses,

output of the 'Districts of Temiskarn-
ing and Cochrane, was well over one
million pounds. This is concrete
evidence of the progress the dairy
industry has made in this part of
Northern Ontario, This year all
creameries report increased produc-
tion over last year.
g Fertilizers
ertilizers
A new method of 'bringing the On-
tario Agricultural College into contact
with farmers is the practice of ahold-
ing evening meetings on field den
estrbtions with fertilizers. 'These de-
monstrations, of which several 'hun-
dred were l'a'id out on a variety of
crops throughout the ;province, con-
sist of .plots of half -acre or acre size,
on which diffe'ren't combinations of
fertilizing elements are compared with
unfertilized plots and with one anoth-
er under practical farm condi'tions.
This work has been made pos'si'ble by
co-operation of the college, county
representatives, farmer .demonslrat
ors.. and fertilizer interests.
lSo far this season ten field meet-
ings have been held, in Kent, 'Es'sex,
.Elgin 'Middlesex, Welland, Oxford,
Waterloo and *eliington. F•erther
meetings are planned as the later
crops reach maturity, At each meet-
ing the crops are inspected and a gen-
eral discussion .opened on the subject
of fertilizers, led by, soil .fertility ex-
perts from t'lie 'O.A.C,
Reduction in Alsike
A coesiderable reduction in the
seed crop` of alsike and red clover is
officially forecast for' 1930. Ontario
is expected to produce not more than
70,000 bushels of adsike or about one-
third of the1929 production. 'An ih-
creased acreage of alfalfa is being held
for seed in Ontario. 'There.. was prac-
tically no carry-over of alfalfa seed
and owing to the a tterut to which this
year's crop was winter killed it is ex-
pected there will be a good demand
for alfalfa seed during the coining
season.
Tomatoes from 'Essex
'Reports from the 'Leamington area
in Essex County show that the toma-
to shipments ere the largest in fifteen
years. 'The South Essex fruit grow-
ers shipped as many as 17 carloads in
one day,. The price to the growers is
about $1 for an 111 -quart basket. The
early crop is ripening very fast and
is reported of good quality. The or-
ganization is reported as exceptionally
successful this year in the handling
of beans, cucumbers and other early
produce. Potatoes have also moved
quickly and have been la good crop
and the price is considered very sat-
isfactory. The organization now has
grading .stations at Harrow, Kings-
ville, Leamington and Ruthvea, with
Newton gashes as manager.
Summer Fallowing Pays
R. H. Clemens, agricultural repre-
sentative in North Wellington, esti-
mates that West Luther Township
alone will have about 4000 acres of
summer fallow. "Nothing has im-
proved our crop yield so much and
reduced our weeds more than July
plowing," he declares. "Some:, have
found, however, that when a great
deal of work is put on a clay field, it
tins badly in the spring and becomes
wet and soggy, remaining so until it
becomes hard on top and produces a
later crop than one would expect.
This may he overcome to a great ex-
tent by duckfooting in the fall with a
cultivator and some farmers are plan-
ning on ridging with ti plow. Ridging
summer follows with a' plow is highly
recommended in clay areas."
It Takes Brains,
"It takes more brains to be a far-
mer than to be a high court judge,"
asserted J. Lockie Wilson at a recent
gathering of provincial fain judges.
There -never was a greater need for
o -operation between the scientist and
Ile farther than to -day. The' most
cientific business at the present time
s farming," he added.
Apple Yield Lower
The Canadian commercial apple
crop prospect, reported on Aug. 1, in-
dicates a yield of 2,9.90,109 barrels, as
compared with a yield ' of 3,939,915
barrels in 1929, or 75.8 per cent. of
last year, or 939 of the five-year av-
erage of 3,182,195 barrels, British Co-
lumbia, with an estimated crop of 4,-
169/136 boxes, is the only province re-
porting an increase over last year,
Nova Scotia expects a crop of slight-
ly over half that of the bumper crop
in 1929, while Ontario, Quebec and
New Brunswick report decreases
ranging from 12.5 per cent, to 38.9
per cent, Indications are that fruit
will be of fair to good size, and in
general color prospects are favorable.
The extremely dry weather which has
prevailed throughout most sections of
Ontario and British Columbia has re-
sulted in a slight redaction in the esti-
mates for plums and prunes, peaches
and grapes, although inallcases ex-
pected yields are considerably larger
than last year.
The great International Plowing
Match and Farm Machinery Demon-
stration will be staged near the city of
Stratford, Perth County, on. the
King's Highway No. 7, on 'October

Dairying in the North
In 1917, the Ontario Government
demonstrated its interest in the dairy
industry of the North Country by
establishing a creamery at New 'Lis-
kelard, This Creamery was opened,
in Maroh of that year and until the
end of December of the same year,
drawing cream from as far north as
Cochrane and east and west on the
Trlaeiscontinental, manufactured 40,-
000 pounds of butter. This was the
only creamery along the T. & N. 0.
at that time, ,but since 'then, four
Potato Club Meet
Approximately 200 farmers and
others interested in potato club work
gathered recently on the farm of Mr.
A. E. Brown, Mount Brydges, the
occasion being the first field day of
the Middlesex Boys' Potato Club.
After an inspection of Mr. Brown's
field, the boys' plots and agricultural
machinery, addresses were given by
J. J. Johnson of Parkhill, Middlesex
County fruit and vegetable .inspector,
who discussed the grinding and mar-
keting of potatoes. Mr. Johnson
stressed the necessity of putting up
potatoes of uniform quality and plac-
ing them on the market in an attrac-
tive way. Various speakers outlined
the work being carried on in the dev-
elopment of the farming industry in
general and those in attendance spent
a very profitable day,
Junior Fair Brings Results
The Barrie Junior Fair of 1929 was
one of the outstanding features of the
Barrie Fall Fair, With 50 Junior ex-
hibitors with 2271 entries, including
live stock, poultry, field crops of var-
ious kinds, a verb creditable showing
was made. This :year with an en-
larged prize list and the addition of a
Junior Girls' 'Section, it is expected
that the Fair will reach 150 to 250 Ju-
niors as exbibitors. From present pro,
spects it is expected .that there will
be over 80 entries of live stock alone
to accommodate which the !Barrie Ki-
wanis Club is ,building a •modern 'live
stock building 135 feet in length by
25 feet in width, The competition will
also be heavy in poultry, ;potatoes and
crop products, while a 'special feature
of the indoor exhibit will be 70 dis-
plays of home garden. produce.
The Junior Fair is demonstrating
more forcibly' each year its value as
an encouraging factor in agricultural
improvement: It id not to be canfus-
ed with school fairs but is rather a
connecting link between school faire
and fall fairs, appealing chiefly to
those between 14, and 20 years. Al-
ready numerou's
incidents have been
obsrved of the purchase of purebred
stock and registered seed grainand
potatoes and -other evidences of in-
creased interest ,and enthusiasm in
farming by the young people as a dir
set result of the junior fair,
