Silage Crops For ten years the Field Husbandry Division at Ottawa has been ,conduct- ing experiments with the ensiling' of various crops. Twenty crops cut at different stages of maturity and under different conditions have been successfully ensiled [in experimental silos. Over two hundred tests have been made. Of the crops tested, corn is without doubt the best for ensiling. Sunflowers are recommended on heavy clay soils and in cool climates where corn does not do well. Mixtures of oats and peas, or oats, peas and vetches make very good silage. Red clover is an excellent silage crop but alfalfa is rather difficult to ensile and should be used for hay where possible. Buckwheat, cut in full bloom, yields 7 or 8 tons per acre of fairly good silage. Experiments are being continued with these and other crops. In addition to the regular staff of the O.A.C. and the Vineland Experiment- al Station, there will be a number of outstanding speakers. Some of the subjects to be dealt with include “How Plants Live,” “Soiis and Soil,” “Sci! Winter Fair Winners Winners in the Agricultural Society Class at the Guelph Winter Fadr were as follows: Many fine young trees have been cut down during the past two decades to be sawn by the buzzâ€"saw. These trees have just reached the stage to put on their maximum wood growth, and often if left five years longer would put on as much wood growth as they have in the previous 25 years. For further information write to the Forestry Branch, Parliament Buildings, Toronto. The Forestry Branch also publishes a bulletin on "The Woodlot" which is sent on ap- plication. ' Many farmers who have been burn- ing coal and saving the woods will be turning back to the bush for their ‘fuel because of the depression. In lcutting a bush the owner should think of the future more than in most other farm operations, as cuttings done ‘now'may affect the bush 50 to 100 bears hence. In all bushes that have not been heavily pastured there are trees whosle removal would benefit the remaining stand. These trees will make excellent firewood. In most of the bushes selection cutting should be practised, which is cutting trees here and there through the bush. In this way the bush is never broken as seed- lings spring up in the small open'ng‘s. Improvement of the Bushlot Late fall and early winter is the ideal time for working in the bush as the ground is dry and frozen, and there is little snow to interfere with the work. The Ontario Agricultural College exhibit. emphasized the importance of pasture improvement, and had on dis- play the actual sward from several pastures where experimental work is being conducted. The improved strains of several grasses were like- wise presented for the first time. Educational Exhibits The Dominion Department of Agri- culture and the Ontario Department of Agriculture Were able patrons of the Royal Winter Fair and filled con- siderable space with splendid educa- tional exhibits. Both Departments emphasized market grades and the preparation of farm produce for market. The exhibit of eggs showing all the grades was educational inâ€" deed, and the same might be'said of the bacon and lamb displays. Atâ€" tention was likewise drawn to the growing sales of grad-ed beef to what is meant by Red and Blue qual- ity. ~Oth~er branches of the Depart- ments occupied prominent positions in stratgetic locations.

In Southwestern Ontario alfalfa has been the principal hay in supply this year. There is also a. fair quan- tity of timothy and‘ timothy-grass mixed. Little clover hay is; available in this part of the province. The de- mand for hay is only fair at present as live stock is still on pasture in many localities owing to the open weather. Prices to growers are lower than («luring September, ranging from $14 to $16 per ton for timothy No. 1. Local market, such as Toronto, are expected to require the available sup- ply in the district. Growers are be. ing paid $5.50 to $7.50 for oat straw and S7 to $8 for wheat straw. straw Hay Market Report In the eastern part of the province the demand for hay is slow at present as dealers bought rather extensively earlier in the season. There have been a few shipments to New York state recently. A large part of the 1934 crop of market hay is still in growers’ hands in the Ottawa Valley and the St. Lawrence counties, and consists mainly of timothy and' timothy-clover mixed. Prices being paid growers range from $10 to $12 per ton. ‘ Prices to the growers for timothy, in Northern Ontario, range from $11 to $14 per ton with a steady demand in the towns and cities. There is practically no surplus of market hay in Central Ontario this year and the prices range from $16 to $16.50 per ton, and $6.00 for dat Drainage,” “Types- of Insects and Methods of Oontr ," “Diseases of Plants, Nature and Method of Conâ€" trol," “Plant Nutrients, Their Uses and Effects," “Home Grounds," “Plant Nutrition,” “Cold Storage of Horticultural Products,” “The Place of the Honey Bee :in Horticulture,” “Uses‘of Cement.” In addition there will be more specialized lectures: for the different groups .tmdei' various headings of “Fruit Growing,” “Vege- table Growing" and “Grimmental Horticulture.” ’ ' SHEPPARD & GILL LUMBER CO. ’(Erabel the king’s iéigbtnay Daily Services GRAY COACH LINES N ewmarket, Sutton, Barrie, Orillia, Midland between Richmond Hill ATTRACTIVE RATES between LOW FARES Canadian and U.S.A. points R.
