Pinfold of Toronto SERVICE STATION 76 Yonge St. Thornhill Ontario Early in spring is the best time to transplant most kinds of trees and shrubs, evergreens included. Ever- greens may be transplanted in sum- mer but greater precautions must be taken to do it successfully. Heaves. the ailment common to horses, is frequently caused by re- peated gorging with food or Water, or both. Dusty grain or hay also predisposes to this trouble. Although held back in some dis- tricts by wet, cold weather, spring farm work has become general throughout Ontario. In many coun- ties cultivating has been general and in some cases spring Wheat and oats sown. The reports indicate that fall wheat is looking decidedly good and that clovers, alfalfa and timothy have come through the Winter in fairly good condition. - One of the best services rendered by the experimental farms is the testing of varieties of grain to de- termine their suitability to particular areas. That this work has been ex- tensive and satisfactory is indicated by the general adoption of varieties that were first distributed from the farms. Outstanding examples are Marquis and Garnet wheat in the West, and 0. A. C. No. 44 and 0. A. C. No. 72 oats in Ontario. In the face of all this, attempts are made at times to push the sale of seed from the United States of so-called new varieties at fancy prices on the claim that fabulous yields may be obtained. About a year ago a carload of an in- ferior sort was sold in central On- tario at $1.35 to $2 per bushel, even though it graded No. 3. This leads A. H. Martin, of the Crop and Mar- kets Branch, to state that not one variety ever introduced into the pro- vince by high pressure salesmen has ever been equal to the standard var- ieties already grown. Another matter to be kept in mind at the seeding season is that quality counts, either in home grown or pur- chased seed; Experiments at the O. A.C., prove that large plump kernel yields 20 per cent more than light or Ishrunken seed. These experiments also show that an additional outlay for plump seed will increase the yield from 10 to 15 bushels per acre, which at the present price of 40 cents per bushel for feed oats means a cash increase of from $4 to $6 per acre. Back-to-Farm Movement The present increased employment of men on farms is a definite step to- ward minimizing the unemplovment situation, declared Dr. Christie, pres- ident of O.A.C., in a recent address. He referred to the fact that more boys and more men as farm man- agers on salaries had been place on farms this spring than in any 'like period for the past ten years. “These boys and men are being welcomed back to the farms and they are look- ing forward to a good home, healthy living, and a small but steady wage. More farmers are taking on heln this year than usual. Throughout the rural communities there is generally a feeling of faith, a feeling that things are going ahead.” In his opin- ion, it is the rural people who are saving the situation toâ€"day and it is the farm which is leading the way in stabilizing conditions throughout the country. “Without doubt,” he continued, “one of the greatest opportunities in the dairy industry to increase profits on a. dairy farm is to increase the production of the individual cow. Better Cows and Higher Milk Pro- duction Needed “We do not need more cows in On- tarioâ€"we need better cows,” declared George H. Barr, director, Dairy Branch, of the Department. “We have information which is re~ liable that in some of our so~called dairy districts or counties, the pro- duction of milk per cow for six months is less than 3,000 pounds, and less than 80 pounds of butter fat. Estimating the fat at 22 cents per pound, the revenue is $17.60. Just how can there be any profit in keep- ing such a cow? “In the same neighborhood there are herds which average 6,000 pounds of milk and over 200 pounds of fat per cow for the same period. Fat at the same price gives a revenue of $40.90 per cow. “In order to encourage an increase- in the production of milk and fat on Ontario dairy farms the different dairy associations in the province have offered quite liberal prizes for the past two 'or three years. “The Central Ontario Cheesemakâ€" ers’ Association have led the way in this good work. In their 1932 comâ€" petition for the largest production of fat per acre among cheese factory patrons in Central Ontario they offer- ed $460 in cash, a. silver shield and other special prizes. The Winner of the sweepstakes prize in 1931 was Mr. H. Arnold of Campbellford, with 37.94 pounds of fat per acre on a 65-acre farm. He was again the win- ner of the sweepstakes prize in 1932 with 45.02 pounds of fat per acre, an increase of 7.08 pounds. Had we more patrons of this type there would be less trouble paying taxes. it The one thing we cannot under- stand is why this depression is allow- led to continue. when there are so many people who can tell us how to lift it with absolutely no charge for the advice. “Just multiply that increase by 25,000 (the number of cheese factory patrons in Ontario) and then multi- ply the result by 20 cents per pound of fat, and there would have been $35.400 extra money in the pockets of the cheese factory patrons in 1932."
