Bill of Lading Protects Farmers
"Ex•cellent progress has been made
in applying Bill of ;Lading regulations
to truck movement o.f live stock,"
states Garnet Dnncan of the 'Ontario
Marketing Beard staff,
"Farmers appreciate the protection
offered by this system against irregu-
larities practiced' (by some truckers,"
continued Mr. IDunleen, "and most re-
liable truckers support the system as
it• saves time and protects them from
unfair competition. Weekly , records
show 'the use of ,bilis of lading is in-
creasing steadily."
Ploughing Practice

at a goivern•ment experimental station
has given soirne interesting results in
regard to 'ploughing, at "'differernt

Ontario Seed Prospects
Aicoording to A. H. Martin, Assist-
ant 'D'irector, 'Crops 'Branch, : ,On+ta'rio
Depa'rtmen't •of Agriculture, due' to
cool showery 'weather in the early part
of 'July, the alfalfa seed crop in West-
ern Ontario is almost a failure. East-
ern Ontario, although .never consider-
ed an alfalfa seed -cen'tre, 'will) pro'b'ably
harvest the largest alfalfa seed croip
ever taken from this area. The total
production in 'this area, however, will
be comparatively small.
!Red clover seed praduhtion on the
other hand is .much less than .half a
crop in Eastern Ontario while Jade -
cations in Western ,Ontario wound
point to 'a fair yield ,of clover seed.
;Alsi'ke production is also below
normal. ;'rhe earlier threshed fields
yielded from 243' bushels per acre but
later reports s'hornw some 'fiel'ds going
as 'Nigh as six bushels per acre. It'is
likely there will be sufficient alsike to.
meet focal delmand.
A e6nsiderable fin'erease, •is expected
in timothy seed. This is to be expeet-
'ed from the high price of timothy seed
last year in comparison with 'legume
seeds and also 'to the fact it is neces-
sary to import about 50% of the seed
used in Ontario.
Prices 'for all seed's are likely to be
