The milk producers of Ontario aim to have an answer to this question in the very near fu- ture. Through the coâ€"operation of the Economics and Dairy Husbandry Departments of the Omtario Agricul- tural College and- the Economics Branch, Dominion Department of Agriculture, a research staff is now actively engaged in this study. Many factors in addition to price are included in the agreements drawn up as between milk producers and distribiitors, anti it is the preroga- tive of the Ontario Milk Control Board to exercise. authority in con- nection With agreements made be- fiween these two parties; The Statistics Branch of the Ons- ‘tario Department of Agriculture 'published this week the September ‘Monthly Crop Report giving a reâ€" ‘view of crop conditions in Ontario as compiled from reports submitted 'by a Large staff of regular corre- lspondents. SUMMARY OF CROP CONDITIONS Current Crop Report Grey County reports its apple crop this year equal to that of 1935, with all fall apples turning out a good average crop and with Duchess nearâ€" ly double last year’s. McIntosh how- ever show a decline of about 30 per cent. Estimated production of Geor- gian Bay fruth district is between 65,000 and 75,000 barrels. Quality is exceptionally fine. Huron Coun- ty has a similarly encouraging re- port in this respect. In Waterloo The intense drought which was ex- perienced over most of Central and Western Ontario was terminated a- bout mid-August, since which date rains have fallen over most sections of the Province. It is now possible to size up fairly accurately the ex- tent of loss caused by the drought. Fall wheat, fall rye, main. hay crop and first cutting of alfalfa were only slightly affected, having- almost reached maturity Before the drought became severe. Yields of all these crops were practically normal for the Province as a 'whole, the less than average yields for hay in Cenâ€" tral Ontario being counterbalanced by above normal yields in other counties. The preliminary estimate of the production of spring grains places the average yield fbr the Province .at 29.2 bushels per acre for oats, as compared with 36.0 ‘bushels in 1935, barley at 27.1 bush- els as against 32.2 bushels, and mix- ed grains at 29.5 bushels as comâ€" pared with 36.5 bushels a: year ago. The aggregate reduction in the yield of spring grain from 1935, as shown NEWS AND INFORMATION FOR THE BUSY FARMER The condition of late crops at the end of August was the lowest of any year since 1922, when condition figures were first established. Rains during the last week of August and the first ten days of September over practically the entire Province will, however, prove beneficial to pas- tures, rootsw, potatoes .‘and corn. Dry beans suffered heavily from drought in South-western Ontario and the anticipated yield this season is only 12.8 bushels per acre as compared with 18.1 bushels last year. Buck- wheat germinated very poorly and the condition figure at the end of August was placed .at 63, the long time average being represented by 100. Practically two-thirds of the corn. for bus-king crop is grown in Essex and Kent. In these two coun- ties early planted corn represents ap- proximately one-half the crop, and yields should be well up to average. Later planted fields are considerably below average at present but if fall frosts are late a fairly satisfactory yield may be obtained. In Essex and Kent, and also in the far eastern counties of the Province there has been a decided increase in Corn Borer infestation, but only in a few instances is it likely to reduce the yield substantially. Corn for husk- ing and roots are considerably be low average in Central, Western and Southern Ontario, and fiar‘mers proâ€" ducing fluid milk who depend upon these crops for a considerable proâ€" portion of their winter feed supply will, in most cases, experience con- siderable difficulty in keeping milk production up to normal. In Essex and Kent bumper yields: of spring grain were obtained, and in the nine counties situated at the extreme eastern end of the Prov- ince yields were above the average. The increase in production in these counties helped to counteract below average yields in other counties. In Peel, Brant, Welland, Wentworth, Halton, Haliburton and Victoria counties» the yield of oats shows! a 50 per cent reduction from last year. The quality of spring- grains is quite varialble, straw short, and the weight per bushel very Light in the drought area. by the first estimates, amounts to slightly less than the 20 per cent decline forecast in last month’s Crop Report. These crops â€" fall wheat, fall rye, spring grains and hay and clover crops â€" comprise approximately 75 per cent of the value of all field crops produced in Ontario, and from the above men- tioned yields it will be seen that the effects of the drought, while severe, were far from disastrous. The condition of pastures at the first of September was the lowest on record with a condition figure of 58. In Central Ontario” from whioh the fluid milk supply for the City of Toronto is derived, pastures were the worst in the Province and most dairy farmers have been stable feed- ing their herds for weeks. The seâ€" cond cutting of alfalfa on many farms Was used for feeding live stock and winter hay supplies were also fed freely, which will make it imperitive that hay be fed very care, fully this winter so that the present supplies which are considered suffi- cient for the Province as a whole, may not run out. Second growth of oats, which is most unusual, is pro- viding some green feed. Many farm- ers will have to purchase grain at prices) already 75 per cent higher than a year ago and. likely to reach 100 per cent before the winter is over. Unless the price of fluid milk is advanced the cash income of dairy farmers will show a considerable re- duction from last year. The production: of butter in Auâ€" gust was approximately 15 per cent below that of August 1935, while the production of cheese, which for the 'first seven months showed an in- crease of 20 per cent above the same 'period) last year, amounted to 13,- 504,000 pounds in August this year ‘as compared with 13,431,000 pounds in the same month last year. Farm- ‘ers supplying milk to cheese fac- tories are striving very hard to main- tain the flow in ordervto profit from the prevailing high prices for cheese. 'At Bellevilie, cheese was selling for 141/3 cents per pound on August 15th this season, as compared with 93/3 cents per pound at this same date during the preceding- three years. Higher prices for field cropS/ are 'expected to more than compensate for the reduced production this year, and the total value of agricultural production in 1936 in Ontario is ex- pected’ to exceed that of the year '1935.

THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO According to J. A. Carroll, secre- tary-manager of the Ontario Plow- men’s Association the plowing match will include every type of plow and every kind of draught used by farm- ers attending the four-day meet. On first day of the match, Oct. 6. competition will be restricted to resi- dents of Glengarry, Stormonlt, Dunâ€" d‘as, Grenville, Carleton, Prescott 2nd "Russell counties. In these seven Ot- tawa and St. Lawrence vall-ey coun- ties are located the ten Eastern On- tario local plowm-en’s associations aâ€" roundI which this year’s match is be- ing centred. Three of these counâ€" ties (the United Counties of Stor- mont, Dundas and Glengarry) and' 'the city of Cornwall are official ’hosts of the 24th annual match. In a foreword to the official pro- gram just published, Mr. Carroll ‘writes: “Noted for their hospitality, 'citizens of the United Counties and of Cornwall have been working en- 'thusviastically for months to provide every facility for the staging of the event and the comfort of visitors.” The types of plows, Mr. Carroll says, will vary from the bright-cut Scotch plow, which delivers a very fine furrow, to the speedier three- furrcw tractor plow. Several hundred of the contestants will use horses, but well over 100 tractor entries are expected. On the afternoon of October 9, a- bout 40 of the best teams will be brought to a special exhibition ring near the “Tented City” where 20 prizes. totalling 8465.00, will be a- warded. As the first prize is $50.00, it is expected competition will be keen and will attract some of the 'best draught teams in Eastern C'an- ada and northern New York State. According to J. A. Carroll, secre- tary-manager of the Ontario Plow- men's Association the plowing match The rules of the horse show judl â€" ing committee prevent the entry of any “plush” horses, since it is speciâ€" fied that in order to qualify for the Show “all teams must have been used two days at least for plowing, and ‘will 'be inspected at work by the judges." One of the most spectacular feaâ€" tures at the International Plowing Match to be held near Cornwall from October 6 to 9 will be the annual horse show on the final day of the exhibition. “This year's match,” he h‘aid, “has been. the best-organized since the an- nual event was originated.” Under ‘a general committee headed by J.
