Hon. John S. Martin, Minister of Agriculture, returned to his duties at the Parliament Buildings last week after an absence of five months due to illness. He was warmly greeted by heads of the different department- al branches. Hon. Mr. Martin will now actively supervise activities of the department, although he will be compelled to take things easy for aâ€" bout a year. Big Value in Fertilizers Commercial fertilizers when applied to various crops in conjunction with good farming methods give big re- turns. Fhosphates increase yields of almost alL crops on almost all types of soil in the province. Potash pays, especially on the sandy soils. Nitro- gen fir mest farm crops should, as far as pisiblc, be obtained for growâ€" ing legumes. Crcp Yield Average The estimated yield of fall wheat, spring wheat, cats. barley, rye and peas in Ontario for the year is given at 114,140,939 bushels as compared with 135,377,224 bu ‘iels last year. The total acreage in Ontario for these grains was 367,881 acres less than last year. Oats are lower by 19,500- 000 bushels than last year. The po- tato crop was below normal and tur- nips and mange-ls, due to a continuous drought are smaller in size than usu- a1. crop, but winter apples are plentiful although small in size. The tobacco average was 30 per cent. below 19225. Taken all-in all, the crop yield is an average one, and the quality good. Grading is Vital The fact that more than 180,000 acres of potatoes are grown in Onâ€" ant that an efficient marketing sys- tem be perfected. This means that every grower should cooperate in properly grading his potatoes and in placing them on the market in a suit- able container. Only in this way can the competition of the outside product be met. Weed Advisers It is the opinion of the provincial weed inspector that when councils are selecting inspectors they should ch00- sc “weed advisers" rather than “police men." Excellent progress has been made this year and it was found that this was most pronounced where a man was chosen as inspector, who was ' enthusiastic about weed control and could advise farmers how to reduce their weed menace.

The theory is that in prolonging daylight the hens were enticed to lay more eggs. Experienced to lay more eggs. Ex- periments over a period of five years at the Dominion Experimental Station with two pens, one supplied with the extra lighting facilities and the other without, show the following results: Over the five-year period, the pen of 100 hens supplied “nth light pro- duced on an average 3966 eggs at a cost of 20c per dozen in the six mon- ths. The pen without lights producâ€" ed 3671 at a cost of 22c per dozen. This gives an advantage of about 300 ‘eggs for the pen with lights and at a reduction in cost of 2c per dozen. Poultry Breeding Stations One important way in which the Poultry Department at O. A. C. is carrying its knowledge in a practical manner to the farmers of Ontario is by the establishment of poultry breed- ing stations for purposes of culling and general flock improvement. Last rear there were approximately 50,000 hens on 160 farms which came under this plan. While this fall over 100,- 000 birds, representing 300 farms have been enrolled. The department has seven inspectors constantly on the road with a view to visiting each flock four times a year and culling undesir- able specimens. Thousands of blood samples are taken and forwarded to the laboratories for testing, from whi- ch reports are sent back to the in- spectors, who act upon them. A not- .able improvement in poultry stand- Iards has been achieved in this way. New Interest in Field Peas Thirty or forty years ago Ontario farmers grew annually about half a million acres of field peas, but when the wevil became troublesome, inteâ€" rest in the crop gradually waned until there was less than 100,000 acres grown. However, during the past few years peas have been comparat- ively free from insect pests and the acreage has been increasing a little every year. I Renewed interest has been obtained ,olso by the development at the On- ltario Agricultural College of an out- lstanding variety known as O. A. C. 181, which is now being distributed through the Experimental Union. This variety is a cross between Prusâ€" sian Blue and White Wonder and is a fairly early ripening pea. Under a tenâ€"year test at O.A.C. it has yielded about 25 per cent. greater returns Sever- lal farmers in the Guelph district have reported excellent crops with this variety. ' 1.- ru-r; .7 V fig-Ka-RWLX- ms” fi Buy Certified Seed Potatoes Now I Certified seed will do more, perhaps than any other single factor to im- lprove the potato crop on the average ’farm. Certified seed will likely be scarce and expensive next spring, and therefore the wise farmer will arran- ge for his supply now. R. D. Nodwell, of Hillsburg, one of the best known producers of quality potatoes, when acting as field man for the Crops and Market Branch during the past summer, had an excellent opâ€" iportunity of observing differences in potato crops. He says: “My eyes were opened to the serious state of the potato business on the ordinary farm. I was amazed at the amount of black leg and rhizoctonia in the average fields. In many cases the 1055 from these two diseases alone 'wculd run frOm 10 to 25 per cent." This meant to many farmers this lycur a loss of from 810.00 to $40. per acre." Certified seed not only reduc- e: the disease loss but increases the encourage a man to properly prepare yield and quality. a field than to come along late in the season and order the crop cut because of weed infestation.
