In Central Ontario, from which 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 se- CODdi cutting- of alfalfa on many farms was used for feeding live stock and winter hay supplies were ‘also fed freely, which will make it imperative that hay be fed very carefully this winter so that the present supplies, which are consid- ered sufficient for the Province as ‘a. whole, may not run out. Second growth of oats, which is most unâ€" usu'al, is providing some green feed. Many farmers 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 in- come of dairy farmers will show a considerable reduction from last The condition of late crops at the end of August was the lowest of any year since 1922, when condition fig- ures were first established. Rains [during the last week of August and in September over practically the entire Province will, however, prove beneficial to pastures, roots, pota- toes and corn. Dry beans suffered heavily from drought in South-wes- tern Ontario “and the anticipated yield this season! is only 12.8 bushels per acre as compared with 18.1‘ bush- els last year. Buckwheat germinat- ed 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 husking crop is grown in Essex and Kent. In these two counties early plantâ€" ing corn represents approximately one-half the crop, and yields should be well up to average. Corn for husking and roots are considerably below average in Central, Western and Southern Ontario, and farmers producing fluid m'ilk who depend upon these crops for a considerablei portion of their winter feed supplies} will, in most cases, experience con-1 siderable difficulty in keeping milk1 production up to normal. The production of butter in Au- gust was approximately 15 per cent. below that of August, 1935, while the production of cheese, which for the first seven months showed an increase 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. Farmers supplying milk to cheese fatories *are stricving very hard to maintain the flow of milk in order to profit from the prevailing high prices for cheese. At Believille, cheese was selling for 14% cents per pound on August 15th this sea- son, as compared with 9% cents per pound at this same date during the preceding three years. year The intense drought which was experienced over most of Central and Western Ontario was terminated a-“ bout midâ€"August, since which date. rains have fallen over most section; cf the Province. It is now possible to size up fairly accurately the ex- tent of loss caused by the drought. Fall wheat, 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 lcrops were practically normal for lthe Province as a whole, the less than average yields for hay in Cen- tral Ontario b‘eing counterbalanced by above normal yields 'in other counties. The preliminary estimate of the production of spring grains places the average yield for the {Province at 29.2 bushels per acre for ioats, as compared with 36.0 bushels in 1935, xbarley ‘at 27.1 bushels as against 32.2 bushels, and mixed Igrains at 29.5 bushels as compared ‘with 36.5 bushels a year ago. The aggregate reduction in the yield of ,spring‘ grain from 1935, as shown by the first estimates, amounts to slightly less than the 20 per cent; decline forecast in last month’s Crop: Report. These cropsâ€"fall wheat, fall rye, spring grains and hay and clover cropsâ€"comprise approximateâ€"r 1y 75 per cent. of the value of all. field crops produced in Ontario, and' from the above mentioned yields it Will be seen that the effects of the: drought, while severe, were far fromf disastrous. : HIGHER PRICES TO MORE THAN COMPENSATE FOR REDUCED YIELDSâ€"LATE RAINS GREAT HELP TO ROOTS AND PAS- TURESâ€"A GENERAL REVIEW OF AGRICULTURAL CON- DITIONS THROUGH OUT THE PROVINCE The ploughmen and their friends, together with prominent visitors, will be the personal guests of the united counties of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry, and everything has been done to make the four-diays meeting a success by J. A. Carroll, secretary- manager of the Ontario Ploughmen’s Association, East Block, Parliament Buildings, Toronto. Reservations for the comfort of visitors have been made, and up to the present every indication points to an attendance far beyond former years. The field in which the ploughing- contests will be held is in the district described in Ralph Connor’s books, particularly in the “Man From Gleng-arry,” which la few years ago was a “best seller” and still is in demand. An important; part of the meeting will be the exhibition of 1311 kinds of machinery and home accessories and conveniences. ’ Skilled Ploughmen at Cornwall ! Ploughing Match 1 If unforeseen duties do not inter- ‘fere, it is hoped that His Excellency the Governor-General of Canada will visit the International ploughing match which will be held at Corn- wall, 0nt., on October 6, 7, 8 and 9 inclusive. The match is open to the whole world, and already celebrate'l ploughmen from different parts of Canada, particularly from Quebec, and from the Eastern United States, have intimated their intention to compete in the various entries. Dur- ing the four days some exciting and exacting contests in the high art of skilful ploughing are expected both with horseâ€"drawn and tractor ploughs. ORDERS TAKEN AT THE LIBERAL PRINTING OFFICE Consumption of poultry can be in- creased on the home market by sell- ing the top grades, and premium prices are offered for such quality. The export market will absorb large quantities of Milkfed chickens weighâ€" ing from two to four and one-half pounds per bird. By producing to n at the requirements on the home a d export markets it should be pos- sible to avoid any glut of dressed poultry. Proper fattening is an important part of any poultry marketing pro- gram. There is no kind of poultry to which this applies more force- fully than to young c'ockerels of broiler weights marketed during the summer months. The market gener- ally becomes somewhat over-supplied with small, unfinished birds during June, July and a part of August, which are difficult to move into con- sumption and are not suitable for export, 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. Evidence of the value of properly fattening market poultry was well demonstrated recently in districts of Quebec. In these districts the pro- ducers‘ crate or pen fattened their young cockerels before marketing and as a result a good percentage of the birds were made to qualify for the Milkfed class and brought a prem- ium of two to three cents per pound which is offered for Milkfed birds over Selected.

Your Home Printer Fi: €95” le/f Sales BOOkS THE LIBERAI , RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO Both Mr. McLean and Mr. Young agreed that invariably the winner of the high-cut plowing class was in the first rank of the practical plow- ing classes, 'and that when speed classes had been tried, it was found that high-cut plowmen were leaders in that class. The fierce feminine radical in col- ‘lege is the one who never has heard a handsome he say: “I adore you.” Referring to some complaints re- ceived about the length of time con- testants were allowed to “dress” their work both in high-cut and oth- er classes, Mr. Young remarked: “If I send a horse to the Rayol Winter Fair, don’t you expect me to brush him up a bit and maybe fix him up with a ribbon or two? Why should- n’t man take just as much pride and pains with his exhibition plowing as- he does with his exhibition stock. Plain, everyday plowing can be seen on any farm in the Fall, but those who come to an International Match expect to see a show.” Mr. Carroll pointed out that this. [class for the past 12 years had not been included in championship com- petition, but had been listed as an l“exhibition" feature. “It is includ- ‘ed on this year’s program,” he said, i“simrly because a great many peo- ple want to see it, Invariany it attrrcts the largest audience of any ever? in the match.” High-cut plowing, he said, was the settlers in Canada who brought it over with them from Britain. The development of modern implements and: methods had made this style out-of-date, as it was used primar- ily for hand-sowing. Although it was much slower than present-day methods, Mr. McLean said, it was still possible “to grow as fine a crop on a high-cut plowed field.” “I maintain that high-cut plowing is both necessary and desirable at any ‘International’," declared Mr. McLean, “simply because I consider it the highest form of plowing art. Any man who can hold a high-cut plow can handle anything 'in the plowing line.” Chief defendants of high-cut plow- ing as an International Match pro- gram item were Clark Young of Mill’ken, treasurer of the Ontario Plowmen’s Association, and Jhmes McLean of Richmond Hill, a direc- tor. Both are former champions and have served as match judges in Can- ada wherever plowing is considered an art. ing? Some plowmen swear by in! others swear at it! i A medium-sized controversy was1 raging here last week on the eve of the 24th annual International Plow- ing Match being held at Cornwall, Ont., from October 6 to 9, as to whe- ther high-cut plowing- had'a legiti- mate place on the recently-issued program. Criticism had been direct- ed at officials of the Ontario Plow- men’s Association, sponsors of the match, to the effect that inclusion of this class made no contribution whatever to the advancement of the plowman’s art. The general tenor of the complaints, according to J. A. Carroll, Secretary-Manager of the Association, was that this type of plowing was “unpractiqal, useless, and unsuitable for cultivation.” Toronto, Sept. 28.â€"Is high-cut plowing nothing but “kid-glove non- sense” or does it represent the high- est development in the art of plow- Famous officers of the Cana- dian Pacific Railway and Sir John A.
