Facts About Tobacco
Here are some interesting facts a-
bout tobacco growing in Canada sup-
plied by the Department of Agricul-
tuee at Ottawa:
Tobacco growing was :introduced
by French settlers in the early colon-
ial days;
Government assistance was first
given in 1736;
In 1871, the year of the first deci-
mal census, production was estimated
at 299,870 pounds for Ontario and
1,195,345 pounds for Quebec;
In 1931 there were some 7200 farms
producing tobacco in Ontario and
Quebec, and approximately 70,000 per
sons were engaged its the production
or manufacture of tobacco and its
products;
Tobacco is grown in nearly every
province in the Dominion;
Canada's total production of com-
mercial tobacco for 1531 was esti-
mated at 51,000,000 pounds.
May iIse Northern Route
Negotiations are being made with
a view to the shipping of cattle from
Canada's new northern sea port,
`r i
Churchill, ttrcltill, to the United Kingdom,
Canadian cattle bound for Britons are
now sent by rail 2,000 miles from
Calgary to Montreal and by sea from
itontreal, Halifax or St, John. In
•sew 01. the successful shipping of
grain to the United Kingdom anti
i.e Continent from the northern sea
wrt, arrangemente are being discuss -
el for the shipping of mixed ear-
ot'. to both grain and tattle. Can-
dian cattle exported to Great llri-
tin during tite present season of
avigation, up to the middle of Au-
ust amounted to 1'5,641 bead, as in-
t case of 1.156 over the shipments
or the sante period in 1931.
At the Royal Winter Fair last year

tr Hon. %Direct Weir, federal Min -
ler of Agriculture. stated that con -
was being given to the
asibility of using this northern
lute to ship feeder cattle to the

Canada's Seed Industry
The seed growing industry' in Can-
ada has been gradually developed and
improved during the period of the
past thirty years, a report recently
prepared by the Seed Branch states,
It now embraces the production and
improvement of • approved varieties of
cereals of pedigreed stock, the pro-
duction of forage crop seeds, and the
production of field root, garden veg-
etable, and flower seeds. It . is esti-
mated than in 1931 3,710 farms were
producing seed crops subject to fed
eral inspection, and that around 12,-
000 persons Were engaged in the pro-
duction and marketing of the im-

Very few people know the inter-
esting history behind the 'develop-
ment of the popular and ubiquitous,
tomato, which has 'not always. been
the luscious, . appetizing, bulging,
smooth, rounded, .ripe red fruit we
know to -day. There was a time, and
not so many years ago, at that, when
the tomato was .a wrinkled, wizened
up, unattractive, skimpy fruit, which
had very little "eye appeal." It has
only been of very recent years, as
the result of the work of Burbank
and specialists in plant breeding, that
tite tomato's little wizened -up old
face has been lifted to the sunny,
smiling attracttive countenance that
makes h so popular to-day.--Dontin-

Saves Bee -Keepers Work
A new method of detecting prepar-
ations for swarming in bee colonies
is xeported on by the Superintendent
of the Dominion Experimental Sta-
tion, Lennoxville, Que who says:-
"searching queen cells, by taking out
every comb of brood, is a tedious
task; to obviate such a procedure an
experiment was started five years
ago: When the colonies show any
signs of congestion in the spring, a
shallow super is placed on the brood
chamber with no queen excluder, so
that the queens have free access to
this second brood chamber. When
examining the colonies, it is a good
ideato tip the super from the rear
and note if queen cells are present
along the upper edges of the combs
in the super,"
