Tear, Toronto, Nov. 24. -Following is the report of the Ontario Bureau of Industries for the crops of Ontario, from returns sent under date of November 2nd.. The final estimates of the yields of crops for 1908 are bas- ed on threshing returns forwarded by over 2,00Q special correspondents: Fall Wheat -The favorable accounts regarding fall wheat given in the August bulletin have been fully sus- tained by the reports received since threshing, The yield per acro is largo, and tho quality of the grain is, as a rule, first-class, except a small percentage sprouted in the field during the wet weather prevailing during a portionof the harvest. Sev- eral correspondents describe the grain as being well up in weight, some of it going from 62 to 64 pounds to the bushel. Taking both yield and quality into consideration, the crop of 1908 may be considered as ono of thq best in the history of fall wheat in this Province. The' New Fall Wheat -There has been a greatly increased area of wheat sown this fall, more particul- arly in the Lake Erie district and other localities where the Hessian fly did so much injury during the previous three or four years. Tho .seed -bed was generally reported as being in good condition, which gave the crop a good start, and as corre- spondents wrote at the end of Octo- ber, tho young wheat was presenting a fine appearance in most places, al- though hero and there spm° fields were showing need of rain. While sowing ranged from the 20th August to the end of the first week of Octo- ber, the bulk of the crop was put in somewhat later than usual. Some injury from the Hessian fly was re- ported, but not so much as in the previous three or four years. Forty varieties of fall wheat aro mention- ed as being sown, Dawson's Golden Chaff being the lnost popular, and Bed Clawson coming next. Spring W eat Deorenaing. Spring Wheat -This crop appears to bo steadily decreasing in favor with Ontario farmers, judging by tho shrinkage in arra during the past four years. The quality of this year's grain is said to be from fair to good. A few complaints have been made of rust, but the crop generally may be counted as above the aver - ago, although not so good relatively as fall wheat. The falling off in wheat growing,, both fall and spring, may be readily shown by the following statement: Fall Wheat.

Beans -'This crop Is variously de- scribed. It suffered from ratan when growing and when being pulled, and there was a tendency to run too Much to straw. Not only was har- vesting delayed by rain, but sonic of the crop was else discolored from tills 'cause. Notwithstanding these complaints, several correspondents speak well of the Crop, and its gen- eral condition may be. classed • as fair. Buckwheat -The acreage given to buckwheat is comparatively small but where grown this year the crop has turned out to be a good one on the whole, accounts of both yield and quality running from "fair" to "splendid," Tile )iidge in the Clover, Clover Seed -The second crop of clover made vigorous growth, but in most cases ran to stalk at the ex- pense of head. The midge was also in evidence in nearly every section of the Province, and wrought injury to clover seed variously estimated at from 25 to 75 per cent. Many fields intended for seed were cut for hay, and others were turned into pasture. , Potatoes - When correspondents wrote for the August bulletin the yield of potatoes promised to bo one of the largest, ever recorded in On- tario. Unfortunately rot developed at the time of digging in almost every section of the Province, more especi- ally on heavy soils and on low-lying lands, the western and central coun- ties suffering more from this cause than those counties lying farther east and north. The extent of the rot, as given by our correspondents, varies from 10 to 60 per cent. The hoot Crops. Turnips -In those sections of the country where turnips are most largely grown the crop has turned out well. in many quarters, how- ever, there aro complaints of lice doing much injury to the plants. Mangel Wurzels-Many complaints were made of poor seeding on ac- count ot.dreuth, and a considerable quantity of =angel land was resown to turnips. Nevertheless the crop caught up as the season advanced. Carrots -Correspondents have but little to say about this crop but that little would indicate that they have turned out well comparatively. Sugar Beets -Reports regarding sugar beets describe them as being from fair to good in yield and quality. They appear to bo steadily growing min favor as food for live. stock. Fall Plowing --The reports rolating to fall plowing are most divergent, A considerable number of correspon- dents speak of the work as being well advanced, while an equally large number say that fall plowing is not as far ahead as usual. Barley -There has been an im- mense yield of barley, nearly all of it plump and of excellent feeding value, although a considerable por- tion of the grain was discolored by rain at harvest. However, the mat- ter of color is not now so important as it was a few years ago, when most of the barley was raised for malting purposes. Oats -A. large yield of oats is re- ported, but while most of the crop will bo of excellent quality, a por- tion of it is said to bo rather light in weight. Some rust on late oats is complained of, the straw is hardly as long as usual, and there was also considerable "lodging" during har- vest owing to heavy rains. Notwith- standing these drawbacks, the oat crop may be listed as a success. Rye -This crop is comparatively little raised for grain, but where grown for that purpose it has clone very well this season. Pea Results .Encour.,Cing. Peas -Of late years this crop has suffered greatly from the pea :weevil or. "bug," and its acreage in 1903 was reduced by one-half as compared with that of five years ago. During that time what is known as the flat or grass pea has been largely sub- stituted for the common field or round pea, as the former variety was regarded as bug -proof. The grass pea, however, has failed to give good sat- isfaction, and the round pea is again being more freely sown. While some correspondents report a gpod crop, many complain that the wet weather made too much straw at the expense of the pods. The results of this year's experience, taken altogether, are rather encouraging, as injury from the weevil appears to have been much less than in the previous year or two. Coro -August remarks as to the un- evenness of the corn crop aro empha- sized in the reports just to hand. Descriptions of both yield and qual- ity range from "poor" to "good." Early planted corn did much better than that got in later. 'Unfortunate- ly, the dry condition of the soil at sending, and the. poor quality of much of the seed, necessitated considerable re -planting, and consequently lata corn, some of which is soft where grown for the grain,or was caught With the frost where raised for fod- Want your moustache or beard a beautiful brown or rich black? lyse BUCKINGHAM'S DYE -. s,k.tit am oat calve the same thought and care that is bestowed upon the other animals on the farm. Nevertheless, there AP - pears to bo a growing interest in the selection, feeding, housing, and gen- oral care of fowl. Although the sum- mer was not favorable for chicicene, it being too wet and cool for the most part, good prices for both eggs and poultry have greatly encouraged raisers. .flees and Honey -'A good yield of honey is reported from the western and central parts of. the Province, but in the St. Lawrence and Ottawa counties apiarists have not done so well, owing to unfavorable weather. Improvements 011 the yarns, Farm Improvements -Only a fair amount of under'draining was done in 1,1103, not because far=os have lost confidence in its benefits, but chiefly because good ditchers, and farm la- borers generally, have been so scarce. Rail and other wooden fences are be- ing rapidly replaced by woven wire fences of various designs, but barbed wire is now seldom asked for on an Ontario farm. A considerable num- ber of new houses, barns, and other farm buildings were erected during the year, but still a larger amount of work has been done in the way of putting stone, brick, or content base- ments under existing barns, thus greatly improving the stabling. Ce- ment floors are also becoming more common in this connection. Labor and Wages -Correspondents aro agreed as to the great scarcity of farm labor, but they aro much divided as to how to meet the diffi- culty. The exodus to tho north and northwest still continues, which means the loss to the Province of many of its most stalwart and ex- perienced young men, and their places here are being taken by Old Country youths who suffer in comparison, al- though some of them give satisfac- tion. Wages show no tendency to lower, and some correspondents in-. sist that it is impossible to pay cur- rent rates and make a profit. Abundance of Flume. Fruit -Fruit growers will likely re- member 1908 as the plum year. This fruit was so abundant that many growers found it difficult to handle the crop in time for market. The quality of the plums was also good. There was a fair yield of apples, but in various parts of the Province com- plaints were made of the scarcity of barrels, and on this account buyers were more particular than ever in -the selection of this fruit, and thou- sands of bushels of apples that in former years would have passed for shipment to Great Britain were this season rejected by thein. The tent caterpillar and codling moth were not so bad as in recent years. Pears yielded well in most places, but some blight is reported. Peaches were plentiful, but serious complaints are made regarding tho ravages of the San Jose Scale among these and other fruit trues. Cherries bore bountifully, but some references aro still made by correspondents to tho danger threatening cherry and plum trees by black -knot. Grapes were Fair in yield, but suffered somewhat from hail storms, and wind storms also helped to thin out apples and other orchard fruits. Small fruits of nearly every variety were abundant. Scarcity of labor was "another great drawback to the prover handling. Pastures and Live Stock -Summer and fall pastures have been all that could be desired, although a few correspondents speak of the fields as beginning to get baro for lack of rain. Both beef and dairy cattle are reported as being in tip-top condi- tion, and in about the usual num- bers, but sheep, while in the very best of form, aro becoming fewer every year. Hogs, on the other hand, aro steadily increasing in numbers, and are being turned off for the packing houses "all tho year round," to quote a favorable phrase of correspondents in this connection. The only serious mention of disease among live stook is an outbreak of hog cholera in the Township of Har- wich, in Kent, and this has been con- fined to the original locality. Pastures ‘Vere Excellent. The Dairy -Tho season has been a most favorable one for the dairy. Pastures were excellent, the flow of milk was large and uninterrupted, the weather was comparatively cool, there was a large' quantity of both butter and cheese made, and both ar- ticles commanded good prices, with the honors in favor of cheese. In fact the high price paid for cheese during the latter part of the season caused a considerable quantity of milk to bo diverted from butter to cheese mak- ing, and several correspondentastate that it was likely that the cheese making season would run further in- to November than has been the cus- tom of late. 1902 was a good cheese year, but 1903 has been even better; in fact the past season has been the most profitable cheese year that Ontario has ever known. ilrado Dur - halite are the breed still to be most generally found as dairy cows, more especially in the western half of the Province, but in the cheese Counties along the St, Lawrence and Ottawa rivers ITolsteine and Ayrshires, With their grades, are equally popular with the Shorthorns, Jerseys and their grades conte next in popularity. Poultry --Judging by the remarks of correspondents, poultry do not tee, Tbreslting•aud Marketing. Threshing is more advanced than usual, being practically completed in most parts of the Province, al- though in a few sections winter threshing is still in vogue. Progress in marketing is hard to describe, nearly every farmer being alaw unto himself regarding the disposal of his grain. Some report that more wheat has been sold than was marketed at the same date for some years past, whilq others in the same localities state that very little wheat or other cereals have been sent to market, as it is now more profitable to feed all kinds of grain to live stock. It would seem as if the advantages of turning grain .into beef or bacon are such as to render farmers much moro independent of the grain market than formerly in the disposal of their wheat, barley, and other grains; al- though a decided rise in the price of any of these cereals would soon bring out a surprisingly large supply of that particular grain.
