Professor SHIDdGX‘E, in his report», says chm the bxrloy crop is one of grear import- ance to the farmers of Uonudo. The annual proéuclz of this oerool for tho past seven years in Ollxxrio alone is estimated by Mr. Blue, in his “gilculluml statistics of Ontario, M1 nearly twenty millions of bushels. while the crop for 1888 is pub at over twenty-threu million bushels. Statistics from other pr.;viocea in the Dominion are not. ovoiloblo, but their prorlucta would largely augment: aha figures given. Canadian bar~ lt'V is ummliy of goon quality, and the sur- plus now icquired for home consumption has horotofnre commanded a. ready sale at ro- munemzive prices to malarers in tha Unified Mallow, and such 39.163 have avenged, dur- ing the posh eleven yeors, 9135.455 bushels annually. yielding a. yearly revenue to Cun- adian forward during the parlor? of $6,587, 592 The export: of barley has mowrlally increased of late years, nnai as the country bicomos more thickly settled and a larger area. of l‘Lnd is brought under cultivation, share will no cloubt bu shill larger quantities of this grain to dispose of.
