not using counter marks has been • t
tremendous in past years. A separ-
ate bill of lading for each carload
would greatly facilite distribution at
U.K. ports. Figures furnished by Mr
Fulton reveal that the .British market
imported 7,600,949 cwt. of apples in
1931 as compared with 4,001,134cwt
in 1921 and 1,830,210 cwt in 1901.
This reveals the potentialities of the
British market for absorbing the ap-
ple exports of Ontario.
Don't Want Fat Hogs
It is particularly difficult in these
days of lots of feed and low prices
to get farmers to realize that the mar
ket does not want a fat hog, at least
not a hog of the fatted type, so pop-
ular a decade or so ago. The hog that
takes the premium today is the select
bacon type, which is, comparatively
speaking, a lean hog weighing 180 to
220 pounds off cars at stock -yards.
Such hogs have a jowl and shoulder
light and smooth, a back from neck
to tail evenly fleshed, a side long
dropping straight from the back, a.
telly allowing thickness of fleshing, a
flank well let down and firm, a ham
full, and a good general finish with
no excess fat. The very best way to
understand the type of bog that gets
the dollar premium is to visit a stock
yard or abattoir or grading station
where hog grading is being done and
se for yourself the type of hog that
nets the dollar premium for the pro-
ducer.

1,000,000 Pounds of Turkey Shipped
to Great Britain.
It has been reported to the 'Ontario
Marketing Board that between Nov-
ember 1G, and December 9, over one.
million pounds of Canadian turkeys
neat will have be.•,± ,'.il;ped to Great
Britain. In spite of the fact that
the turkey meat originated in the
western provinces, this constitutes
good news for the Ontario producer,
inasmuch as local markets will be
elieved to that extent.
Field Crops Report
The Statistics Branch has recently
issued its sixth crop report of the
season, covering yields of field crops
for Ontario. Fall wheat yield per
acre is now placed at 28.4 bushels as
compared with. the preliminary fig-
ure
gure of 30.1 bushels and the estimate
of oats has been reduced from 33.5
to 32.9 bushels per acre. The injury
done to fall wheat by lodging as re-
vealed by threshing operations was
greater than at first believed Yield of
oats was cut down in Southern Ont-
ario due to unfavorable weather at
seeding time and in other sections,
oats are light in weight due to too
much rain and heat while filling.
Total production of both beans and
potatoes is much under last year.The
acreage of potatoes was reduced 7
per cent this year, but the yield per
acre showed a drastic reduction. Dry
rat has been prevalent, many fields
showing as high as 50 per cent rot.
Late crops such as sugar beets, tur-
nips, rnangolds, corn and buckwheat
benefit from favorable growing wea-
ther during the fall and yields were
very good. The corn -borer was wor-
se than for some years. Hay and
clover crops yielded well except in
the. east where growth was checked
by midsummer drought and rains
' came too late to prevent damage to
hay crops, but in time for corn and
grain. Pastures are in excellent con-
dition and livestock is going into the
stables in good condition. Farmers
generally sowed fall wheat later this
year to avoid the danger of Hessen
Fly. Though having less top than
last year, it is very healthy and goes:
into the winter in good shape. Prices
received for. crops are generally les,
thana year ago, although potatoes
and beans are above last year. 'ihe
total value of the chief crops `was
$114,073,408 for 1932, as compared
with $125,221,100 for 1931.
