ONTARIO LEGISLATURE. In the first division of the present session of ,the Ontario Legislatu the Henry. government was sustain by the huge vote of 82-1.9 on stain motion Inc adoption of the a dress in reply to the Speech from the Throne on Tuesday. sAm amend- ment introdnced :by .Farquhar Oliver UFO., Grey South, .seconded by T K. Slack, Peogressive, Dufferin, went down to an - inglorious defeat by a' vote of Q5 -6t,, the entire Liberal Group ,with the exception of Wm Newnan, North" Victoria, who bolted before the' vote was taken, voting with the Government to register what is probably a record and histor- ical division for its size and fact that W. E. N. Sinclair, Liberal Leader endorsed the agricultural policy of the government and its agricultural committee, The Oliver -Slack amendment ask- ed that the House go on record, "re- gretting the government's failure to establish and maintain markets- for farm products so that by increased' selling t•olunnte the farther could me his high overhead cost." In winding up the debate, the thr leaders, Preniier Henry, Mr, Sinclai and H. C. Nixon spoke. They ha been preceded by litJnt. Newman. an J. Fred Reid, Conservative,Cls%indso West. Mr. Sinclair in delivering a mos vigorous and determined speech d pounced the amendment as an unfor tunate episode coining as it did afte the government had acted- on hi suggestion to convert the Agricultur Committee of the House into an en quirt' cotntnittee. This cconnnftte said air. Sinclair had held thre meetings as an "economic commit tee," and not as a political body, an after the House had agreed on co operative effort this session in a honest endeavor to solve agriculture problems and assist the farmer in hi present-day difficulties. "Trine Government is doing w -ha we asked," said the Liberal Leader "We cannot turn around and kick i in the back. I think the people of the province will agree with ane." Mr. Nixon condemned the, govern- ment for its milk policy, the gun license policy, and the Government's fight against Elmore Philpott, and Mitchell Hepburn in the recent by- elections in West Hamilton and Grenville, From the lining up of the Liberals with the Government and splitting from the Progressives, pol- itical authorities see an effort on the pa Pe to 0 ad at sp ce 1{ go as do wi Pr se str inc ura in 000 the the Premier who added that farriers not the onlyonewho .would like to have oyer -'head problems solved. I', "There is 0 temptation on the part'.I of rural representatives :to benioaui agricultural conditions" said 'P'remier Henry, "ht does not behoove public men to advertise unsatisfactory con- ditions which are neatly only a part of world-wide conditions and' beyond I the power of any -one to change.' I: Representatives of the Apple Grolwers' Association faced the Agriculture Committee -with a re- quest that •a chain of cold storage plants be esta'blis'hed' throughout the province in an effort to better mar- keting conditions ' of apiples. They asked that these plants be built by the ,association, with governanental finatacial assistance. The Henry 'Government' was also sustained by a .vote of 81-1'6 in defeat- ingthe motionof •H Nixon, Pr:o - G. N o S ressive leader, .which favoured the principle of referendum and plebiscite Mr, ,Sinclair and his 'Liberal group voted with the 'Progressives,-avid-t'he lone Labour member, Earl Hutclnen- son, IKenora, bolted from the opposi- tion to side 'with the government approving the present system of gov- ernment liquor control. A'.•saving to the public of $500,000 is seen in' the new reduced auto in- surance rates pn private passenger cars which was announced by -Hon. W. ' H. Trice, Attorney -General, under whose 'direction the Depart- ment of Insurance is administered. Rates on this class of car will be I reduced from two to twenty-six per cent„ but rates on commercial: vehic- les and fleets are to be increased in view of the.findings of the 'Hod -gins report that investigated .the rates. Premiums written on private cars,it is estimated will total $6,500,000, while the estimated increase on rates for commercial vehicles and fleets will range about 12' per ,cent. The' Hodgins commission, it was explain- ed, cost about 560,000 -but in view of the saving to the public this' year under the new rates, AttorneysGener- al !Price .declared the 'Commission quite justified itself. D. M. Hogarth, Con., 'Port ;Arthur, in speaking on the debate on the Speech from the 'Throne, urged to the government to .appoint a com- Mission -to- enquire into the workings and constitution of the. Newsprint Institute, which at present operates in Northern Ontario. Mr. Hogarth also urged more attention for the re north-westerly district of -the prov-. ince, west of the Algoma Central thea Railway, urging consideration of -con - Lake, of railways into the Red Lake, English River, and Kenora dis- tricts. 'Representations from the Canadian Federation of the Blind waited. on Premier 'Henry urging appointment of a committee to consider needs- of the. blind and prepare legislation to provide' pensions for 'sightless - per- sons over 40 years of age and -tor all' unemployed -and otherwise needy blind from 2.1 years. et. ee r, d d r' e- s e e e d n l s r rt or Mr. Nixon to remain inde- ndently Progressive and endeavour establish his party as the coming pposibion group in . the House..

Sinclair and his followers in the vernment's determined effort to sist the farmer and asked rejec- n of the amendment.

Valuable Snowfall - The recent heavy snow'fa•ll, which was general throughout Ontario, ser- ved the dual purpose of replenishing the water supply in places where the shortage had been keenly felt during the past. few months and of providing a valuable covering for fall wheat and other early crops, 'It is not often that the farming districts receive such a blessing in mid-March and this may prove a happy augury for a prosperous season.

It is an at `eight -page publication and contains lite a wealth of information relating to of the farming industry. Almost every u. phase• of agriculture as carried on in - this county is discussed, such as pout- - try breeding, reforestation, tobacco - 1- raising, fertilizers, .fruit and vegetable p growing. It also carries several in- n formative articles by 0.A.C. author- ities. Numerous pictures of local in- n terest are used to brighten the. pages. The local agricultural representative, F. C. Paterson, who is also secretary of of the Chamber of :Commerce, has e, been largely responsible for the suc- e cess of this valuable publication. Should Check 'Fertilizer This is the season for buying fer- tilizers and it is important that far- o niers should -know how to protect d themselves in making sure that they f are delivered the kind and ,analysis of fertilizer which they purchase, d The Federal fdrtilizers . act requires e that every fertilizer' deliveredto a ✓ farmer must be labelled with the e guaranteed' analysis in terms of ni- e trogen, phosphoric acid and potash. Therefore the farmer should check - the guaranteed analysis of the fertil- _ izerwhen it arrives: ' I,f short one per cent., nitrogen lt, is, worth about $2.50 a'ton less than the purchase price and • phosphoric acid and potash are worth about $1, for each per cent, Purchas- ers .are -'advised' '10 refuse •acceptance of fertilizer which is not labelled pre- cisely the same guarantees!:: analysis as that purchased. Should any far- mer have reason to doubt the value of a- fertilizerdelivered to him, he is advised to-communii:ate with the nearest fertilizer inspector or the district representative of agriculture. "Sow Clean Seed A recent survey shows that weeds were responsible for a total loss of between 150 and 200 million dollars in Canada last year. The direct loss. in crop actually displacedor killed -out by weeds was over one hundred millions; while the remainder was made up of freight charges for car- rying weed seeds along with-raiif, clover and other craps, boss of mois- ture, d,epreciatidlt of farm vtilua due to weeds and the increase in cultivd- tion necessary where these .soil rob- bers were present. To mitigate this loss, the land must be cleaned tip. Careful pre -seeding cultivation will clean up ordinary fields, while partial sumaner fablow and the sowing of smother crops like buckwheat, rape and turnips are .recommended for very bad patches of such tenacious weeds as twitch attd sow thistle, A clean seed bed, plus clean clover seed and clean seed .grain of a high standard of purity and germination will give a big increase in yield over • the other kind at practically no more cost. Only clean, plump, vigorous seed, tested and approved by Govern mens authorities, should be used.

"Ontario growers, co-operating with the --Ontario .Government in packing their apples for export, have made g wonderful . impression upon the export market this season," writes Andrew Fulton, special• overseas fruit. representative. He continues: "The adoption of a uniform standard of cold'• and quality which has been maintained throughout the season has been recognized by the buyers. I would urge, however, that growers, before another season arrives, care- fully consider the advisability of el- iminating the multiplicity of brands that now exist and to adopt one out- standing nark by which Ontario apples may be recognized."
