No. 2 Telephone Maple 1063 Mill 139 Ontario In these days when we are devel- oping a successful trade 1n farm pro- ducts between Canada and Great Briâ€" tain, the people who are interested in Agriculture in Canada will be de- lighted to have the privilege of hear- in:- one of the mast fascinating speakâ€" ers in Great Britain discuss a variety of farm topics. Mr. Street is a practical farmer, living on and: operating the farm Upon which he was born, and has that keen knowledge of everything He is a regular contributor to the “Farmer’s Weekly" in Grth Britain and his page of “Random Philosoâ€" phy” is read with great interest by the farmers in the United Kingdom. Other books which have come from the pen of Arthur G. StrEet are “Strawberry Roan”, “Hedge-Trimm- ings”, “The Endless Furrow”, “COun- try Days”, “Thinking Aloud”, “A Country Calendar”, “Moonraking”, “Land Everlasting” and “The Gentle- man of the Party.” He became an author by chance after writing a few articles for news- papers upon farm topics, and finally being asked by one of his friends to set down in book form some of his impressions and ideas of farming, he produced, under the.title of “Farm- er’s Glory”, the most favorably re- ceived farming story ever published in Britain. It went into seven sne- cessive editions inside of 14 months after publication. His fame has spread almost all over the worm as a writer of farming stories. He returned to England at the time of the war and, at its concluâ€" sion, took over 'his father’s farm, and since that time he has been the ten- ant at “Ditchampton Farm” in Wiltâ€" Shire, which he now operabes as a dairy farm, milki’ng 70 cows upon the Hosier system. which means milkâ€" ing‘ them outside in bales. These cows are not stabled eit'her winter or summer and Mr. Street is conduct- ing a. Very successful dairy farm. The plans for these meetings were made by the Honourable Duncan Marshall who has read some them books from the pen of Arthur G. Street. Mr. Marshall visited this Wiltshire farmer at his home last summer and was impress-ed with the desirability, of having a few public meetings in Canada by an English Farmer who is so practical and so charming in address. 'Mr. Street spent four years as a farm laborer on a Manitoba hOme- stead about 50 miles northwest of Portage la Prairie, coming out to Canada when |he was about 18 years of age and graduating into a first- class farm hand, who was able to hold his job with one farmer for four consecutive years. Mr. Street is being brought t1 country through arrangements by Canada Packers, Masseyâ€"F. and] Imperial Oil because of the interest entertained for his far books by Mr. J. S. McLean, M A. Russell and Mr. Frank Pre gast. Mr. Arthur G. Street, dairy farm-er, near Salisbury, in Wiltshire, Engâ€" land; author of “Farmer’s Glory” and a dozen other books on farm topics; lecturer and) broadcaster, and one of the most interesting characters» in English Agriculture, is coming- to Canada to address a series of meet- ings.

ARTHUR G. STREET THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO The elimination of buck lambs a- voids possible lowering of lamb prices at the beginning of July. Western Ontario (Toronto w-est)â€"â€"â€" All fruit trees came through the winter without killing but in the Niagara district quite a number of fruit trees succumbed from the ef- fects of the 1936 drought in certain areas and parts of orchards and were replaced this spring. Strawberry plants are generally in healthy con- dition but many plantations show a patchy stand and are thin in the rows. Due to the drought the bearâ€" ing acreage will be approximately 25% below last year. Raspberries are generally in good condition ex- cept where weakened from the 1936 drought. In Georgian Bay district and localized areas in the Niagara Peninsula some new stands of rasp- lberries are reported) to be below nor- mal in appearance. Grape vines are generally in good condition with the recovery from last year’s spring frost and later drought better than expected. ‘Heavy precipitation- has supplied plenty of moisture for de- velopment. Fruit Crop Report The following report on the commercial fruit industry in Ontario was furnished by the Statistics Branch on May let: Spraying and spring growth was somewhat retarded owing to early excessive moisture supplies and: cool weather, but in general all recom- soon is they reach desirable weight and finish. Ewe md wether lambs do ‘better particularly late in the sea- SOY) As any abnormal marketing affects prices, all lam‘bs should be docked, and all buck lambs castrated when 10 days to two weeks old as a sure means of eliminating the buck lamb from the market. The advantages of marketing ewe and wether lambs are many, the chief of which may be tabulated under four heads. Ewe and wether Iam=bs can. be marketed at any time during the season as According to an announcement by the Canadian meat packing industry, buyers of lamb-s in Ontario and the West, on and after June 28, 1937, will pay two cents more per pound for ewe and wevher lamibs than for buck lambs. Buyers may also pay up to one cent more per pound for lambs of most desirable weights and of good quality than for lambs weighâ€" ing over 90 and up to 110 pounds. Up to two cents more per pound may be paid for lamlbs weighing over 110 pounds. Unfinished and cull lamle will be paid for in the basis of their relative quality. -- Cleanliness Needed If Ontario live stock breeders are to maintain the lucrative market which obtains today it is not suffi- cient that they have plenty of good animals to sell. In orer to keep outside buyers interested, the sur- roundings in which the cattle are kept should‘ be attractive. One breed- er who has had remarkable shccess in selling: live stock recently observ- ed that next to the condition and quality of the animals for sale, the ‘neatness and cleanliness arouan t‘he barns were the most important fac- tors in predisposing a man to buy. They indicate the farmer’s pride in his .‘business and give the impression of prosperity. When a buyer fincls a breeder enthusiastic over his breed and proud of the success which his herd‘ is bringing him, it is not diffi- cult to sell the cattle which are be- fore him. Increasing Yields The application of a definite scheme of crop rotation is being found an important factor in reducâ€" ing feed costs. The chief advantâ€" ages of such a practice are: (1) Maintaining and improving soil fer- tility, thus increasing yields; (2) As- sisting- in weed control; (3) Assist- ing' in the control of insect and crop diseases by having various crops on fresh soil each year; and it makes a more even distributiOn of labor throubhout the year possible. In- creasing the yield per acre is one of the best ways of reducing cost of production. andJ in this respect crop rotation plays a real part. Weaning The Litter Natural weaning gives the best re- sults with a litter of young pigs, and to obtain this, feed suitable for young pigs should be provided in the creep. A good mixture for the purpose is a half and half combinatiOn of middl- inlg's and finely ground oats from which the hulls have rbeen sifted. Young pigs will start to nibble at feed at about two to four weeks of age, and by the sixth or seventh week should be eating quite freely. Under such a procedure shock inci- dental to more a'brupt methods is overcome and weaning develops as a natural event.
