Under the leadership of W. C. Keyes, President of the Colâ€" lege Royal Executive, this Show is stag-ed by the students of the College for the purpose of demonstrating show manship with good sportsmanship. Competitions are open to individual students and to student clubs. More than 150 animals of the herds and flocks of the College will be exhibited. The students are assigned these an- imals and have one month ‘in which to fit and train them for the Show. Competent judges will place the class- es on a strictly Showmanship basis. In other words, the placing is made on the ability of the students to pne- pare the animal for the show ring and his ability to show and exhibit the qualities of the animal. Valuable trophies and other prizes are awarded ed for 1936. Other types of tobacco appear to have reached a satisfactory acreage, based on present consump- tion figures. In the Gymnasium, student clubs arrange educational exhibits. These are on a strictly edUCationaI basis and give opportunity for the display of originality and ability in presenting information relating to various phases of Agriculture and Home Economics. A large number of classes for agri- cultural products, cooking, sewing and art will also be open to students. l I. The quality of the 1935 crop is re- 'ported as excellent. “With an im- provement in general economic con- ditions and a closer coâ€"operation be- tween growers and‘ purchasing com- panies in the marketing- and produc-- l tion of flue-cured and Burley tobaccns ‘the price situation is much improved ‘over 1933, particularly in Ontario” states the “Agricultural Situation and Outlook” for 1936. Authorities feel, however. that in the case of flue- cured tobacco the probable demand in 1936 does not call for any increase in acreage over that of 1935. Although. the acreage devoted to Burley'in 1935 ' was not as large as anticipated, an increase of over 10 per cent in acreage of this type, does seem to be warrantâ€" Wood Versus Coal for Fuel In localities where there are large areas of woodland within trucking distance the householders) in villages and towns could ofben save money by using wood rather than coal for fuel. They would also help the farmer and their town as the farmer would have a market for a prodUct which other- Wise is often Insaleable and the town Perhaps no project carried out by the stud-ents throughout the whole year is of more interest and assist- ance to both public and the students than is the College Royal. March 4th will be an outstanding day on the O. A.C. Campus. Large numbers of par- ents and friends of the students will come to inspect the exhibits and to watch the judging" in the pavilion. An invitation is also extended to students of High Smools and 001- Iregiates interested in this work. The coveted award of “Grand Champion Showman” bring-s forth outstanding work by a. large number ~f young men who have had exper- ience with stock and who seek the favorable decision of' the judges. The competition this year promises to be keener than that of any other Show. Tobacco Production Tobacco production in Canada reached an all time high in 1935. The crop last year amounted to more than 55 million pounds and was 45 per cent greater than that of 1934. The tobacco growing industry in this country has made rapid strides over the past fifteen years, especially in Ontario, where 85 per cent of the crop is produced. Other areas of produc- tion are located in Quebec and in Brifish Columbia. The Measurement of Fuelwood Fuelwood is sold by the cord or by the wagg‘on box load. A standard cord is a pile of wood 4 feet high, 4 Feet wide and 8 inches in length, giv- WV! 3 total volume of 128 cubic feet. '“he amount of solid wood in a cord "aries considerably. Crooked sticks, =mall diameter of the sticks, loose oiling and prominent knots are com- mon characteristics that reduce the "olum-e of solid wood in a cord. It is customary in many localities ‘0 sell wood by the short, face or run- nine cord. A short cord of wood is a pile 4 feet high, 8 feet long and 12, 14 or 15 inches in width depending on the market requirements. A standard cord of 4 foot wood is equal to 4 cords of 12 inch wood or 3 cords of 16 inch wood, although a standard cord will seldom give 4 full cords of 12 inch wood because the shorter sticks pile closer.

The London Ontario Board of Edu- wtion recently voted a salary in- crease of $50.00 per year to 174 pub- ing. The Forest Products Laboratories have investigated the heating values of different tree species and the re- sults of these investigations are given. The table gives the number of cords of each species that give the same amount of heat as a ton (2,000 lbs.) of good anthracite coal. Many purchase coal rather than wood because they have a much better idea What they are buying. Many have a very hazy idea of the heating value of a cord of wood compared to a ton of Coal. Also they_realize that different species differ very greatly in heating qualities but the amount of variation is not known. merchants would benefit as the farm- er would have this extra money to purchase groceries, dry geods, hard- ware and shoes. Coal has replaced wood as fuel to a large extent in many towns, villages and there are also a large number of farmers Who burn coal. Various reasons are respon- sible for this substitution. In too many sections the farmers and res- idents of villages have no other alter- native as most of the land has been cleared and there is no wood for sale.
