C XANA M 1 D burr By ,FAIRBAIRN Ontario's 25 rnillion dollar potato crop shows signs of be- ing the best in quality in some years. Acreage planted this year was a little below 1961 and yields per acre are just slightly less than Iast year's bumper crop. However, most crops harvested by raid October showed a high percentage of number -one grade and a tre- mendously high percentage of large potatoes despite slow growth earlier in the season. Losses from disease and insect injury and lack of maturity are extremely low, while hundreds of tests indicate average dry matter is often over 20 per cent. This means a better potato for cooking with improved keeping quality, so producers will offer Ontario consumers a spud to compare with any grown on this continent. Blight has reduced the bec crop while both N.B. P.E.I. are having difficul with weather and disease. ho had frost early' in Sept ber, so prospects for the la Ontario crop are good. Both ducers and dealers have b taking steps in recent years assure a steady flow of g quality Ontario potatoes to local market. This year ther more farm storage and m dealer storage space. Both fa ers and dealers have also stalled more modern facilit for harvesting and packaging they will be able to supply m of the local demend. Onta still imports over 'half of t potatoes consumed in the p vince. There has also been increase in Ontario potatoes ed in processing — for su things as instant. mash French fries and chips. Ontario growers have prov they can grow varieties popul in some of the more famous p ato-growing areas. For examp farmers in Durham County ha been catering to special m kets for Idaho's Baker •or R sett Burbanks and the late word is these potatoes ha been grown successfully Northern Ontario. This year T ronto dealer, S. Hisey & Son, started a production. program with some growers in the AIlis- ton area raising Netted Gems. Results have been much .better than anticipated with yields of marketable potatoes over 400, bags to the acre and very few off grade. These potatoes are being arketed in three different ckages—after Cvashing; a ten- und poly bag; a 50 -pound bag for the institutional trade and -a 25 -pound carton containing 50 one-half' pound potatoes indivi- dually -wrapped in foil. With yields down in Idaho and with a larger than normal crop of small potatoes in that State, the wheel would have turned full cycle if Ontario ended up ship- ping potatoes to Idaho! As a matter of fact, present indications point to an increas- ed acreage of Netted Gems in Ontario 'in .the next few years. There are a few things for grow- ers to think about if they are considering switching to this variety. First, beware of net necrois, the disease that follows virus leaf roll in storage and the main factor in heavy losses in British Columbia when this variety was so pupular • there.

Announces New Huron Benefits New benefits for members of Huron Co-operative Medical Ser- vices were well received at the medical co-op's annual meeting held in Clinton on Wednesday, Oct. 17. They voted in favor of the directors arranging for all surgical contracts to include doc- tors' services while members and their dependents are in hos- pital. Members in session at the meeting in the Town, Hall were welcomed to town by Morgan Agnew, reeve of Clinton. Spe- cialprogram feature was a col- or film on rescue breathing, outlining the technique of mouth-to-mouth method resusci- tation. The film explained that it is not a new method, but is described in the Bible in the second Book of Kings. ro- Guest speaker at the meeting, an Edward Schofield, provincial us- secretary, Co-operative Medical ch Services Federation of Ontario, ed, outlined the reason for co-op medical services deleting In - ed Hospital Nursing Care from ar benefits covered by their con- ot- tracts. This service has been le, duplicating services already cov- ve ered by the Ontario Hospital ar- Insurance plan. us- Mr. Schofield explained that st "over $7,500 has been paid out ye by Huron Co-op Medical Serv- ln ices during the past years for °- special duty nursing care in hospitals. Such payments were unnecessary as all nursing care that a patient may require from a medical standpoint, is yours by right; you are already pay- ing for it in your present OHSC premiums. This also includes any unusual nursing needs," Members also approved pay- ment of claims on the basis of the new 1962 Schedule of Fees of the Ontario Medical Associa- tion. Payment according to this revised schedule represents a very definite additional contract benefit for all members and their dependents. *T.M.

The purpose of advancing the date from the traditional Janu- ary 1st date is to make it more convenient for motorists to pur- chase licences, Mr. Rowntree told delegates to a Department of Transport Road Safety Work- shop in Sudbury. The closing date will be March 13, about the same as past years. "The new opening date of De- cember 10 has many advantages for the motoring public and for the economy of our province," he said, "It will serve the con- venience and budgets of all mo- torists and will save money- for those who purchase vehicles in.

Prices are expected to `average higher than last fall. CATTLE—Most factors indi- cate steady to stronger fed cat- tle prices this fall. The lower level of rnarketings of clloice and good cattle which has pre- vailed is expected to continue until early 1963. The, move- ment of feeder cattle this fall will not equal the heavy volume of a year ago because of the stronger local demand in the Prairies. Exports to the U.S. are expected to be down. Cow rnarlretings will step up season- ally this fall, the bulk of the increase being canners and cut- ters. IR DAY PRODUCTS — Total milk production in 1962 is likely to be slightly greater than last year at approximately 18.4 bil- lion pounds.

The selling price for No. 1 Northern wheat at Fort' William is higher this fall than a year ago' and it is expected to re- main firm. There is an abundant world supply of Durum wheat. Total supplies of oats for the crop year 1962-63 are adequate and provide for increased live- stock feeding and for a build- up of farm stocks. Prices are lower this fall than last and are expected to remain so. Barley supplies during the 1962-63 crop year will be about the same as last year. Exports are expected to be less, leaving more for do- mestic use. In Eastern Canada, larger: corn and mixed grain crops are in prospect. HOGS—Hog marketings this •milk, however, will decline somewhat. Butter production will total about 362 million the sale of new vehicles during pounds in 1962, three per oent that period.

The rapid increase in the number of vehicles on Ontario roads, with a consequent in- crease in crowds and line-ups in issuing offices, was a factor in the Department's decision to lengthen the issuing period. The number of motor vehicles has doubled since 1950 to the pres- ent estimated total of 2,200,000. Mr, Rowntree said the longer issuing period would serve as an intermediate step in the pub- lic interest while the Depart- ment of Transport continues to develop the punch -card system that will make it possible to issue driver's licences on, the birth date of each motorist.
