FURNITUI‘E CUT THIS OUT Fruit and Vegetable Presprwts The commercial apple crop in On- tario is now estimated at 759,800 barrels, as compared with, 703,500 barrels in 1936, or an increase of 8%. An increase of 26% in the section of the province west of Toronto, more than offsets a reduction of 16% in orchards east of Toronto. Peaches are 25% greater in volume, being placed at 503,000 bushels this season, as against 402,300 bushels last year; and plums, while a'd’ecidedlvyi light crop, are estimated at 52,700 bushels, a gain of 28% over the extremely small yield of 41,200 bushels in 1936 Pear production shows a decline of 22%, at 153,500 bushels as compared with 196,800 bushels a year ago. Apples are sizing particularly Well and colouring has improved greatly with the cooler weather prevailing during the past two weeks. Recent winds have caused some loss in East- ern Ontario, and several localized areas in Western Ontario, especially in Georgian Bay and Middlesex dis- tricts. Infestation of Apple Maggot is lighter this season, and Corky Core is practically absent in most districts. Side-worm injury is vari- able and there is considerable scab showing, particularly in Eastern 0n- tario. The honey shortage is particularly unusual since almost all other crops are exceptionallq good. Although honey prices have not yet risen, there is no doubt that they will increase. Quebec and other areas p}oducing honey have an equally short crop. The extraordinary shortage of hon- e} is due to the shortage of clover and to the wet weather early this year. There has been very little clo- ver available at any time this sea- 30“. Ontario Honey Crop Ontario has one of the smallest crops of honey} in the last ten firearsl. Other producing areas are in exactly the same plight, the world markets are lower in honey than for man] year=, states Dr. E. J. Dyce, head of the agricultural department at the Ontario Agricultural College. Pastures were reported in better than average condifion the beginning of September. Butter production in August declined slightly while the total output for the fhst eight inonths of 1937 shows a reducfion of 4.4% in comparison 1. ith the corre- sponding period of the previOus year. The make of cheese for August re- presented an increase of 12.49% over August, 1936. During the first eight inonths of tlfis year the cheese out- put was 62,968,797 pounds or 11.5% higher than in the same period of 1986. Current Crop Report The preliminary estimate places the average yield of oats in Ontario at 33 bushels this season as com-par- ed with 28.5 bushels in 1936 and a ‘preceding 20-year average of 35.4 bushels. The yield of barley is esti- mated at 29.6 bushels per acre as against 27 bushels in 1936 and a long-term average 0 30.9 bushels. To- tal production of spring wheat, oats, and barley will amount to 92,849,000 bushels, which is approximately 10,- 000,000 bushels greater than last year, but 11,300,000 bushels less than in 1935. NEWS AND INFORMATION FOR THE BUSY FARMER Evening ~82W Richmond Hill The'pickers and other handlers 'should also be warned not to dump [the tubers into baskets, barrels or ibags, or otherwise roughly handle |them. Similar care should be taken ,in placing them in the storage bins and in moving them from these to the grading machines. These ma- chines, too, should have the moving parts adjusted or padded so that the tubers do not. bruise. The county council of siwmoe is erecting a. shed at Allandale to house a]! county road machinery. The cost will be about $2500.00. It will be a .steeLclad structure 38 by 90 feet with a concrete floor in a thirty- foot compartment at the from: to be used 35' a workshop. It has been estimated that it would cost $543,400,000 to make the entire St. Lawence River navigable for ocean-going vessels. I Many growers seem to lose sight {of the fact that after spending the ¢ whole season in producing a good crop {they bruise 01‘ damage many tubers fiâ€"making them more or less unsal- a'ble or subject to a low grading-aby hurrying the harvesting operations. Producing large yield-s per acre is not the whole story; without quality, quantity is of little value. Rev. W. A. Cameron of York'min- ster Baptist Church, Toronto on Sun- day» entered into his 30th year as pastor of the same congregation. Be« ginning at the old Bloor Street Bap- tist he ministered there until the church became far too small for the congregation which brought about the building of “Yorkminster”. For a considerable time before the erection of the latter, evening services of Bloor Street Church were held in the Uptown Theatre where more seating room was available and even there the accommodation was often insufâ€" ficient. Growers and dealers alike shOuld see to it that a good pack is put on the market. All off-grade tubers should be removed, the sacks should be clean, and the bags should be full weight when packed. Good quality will always result in repeat orders. This applies as much to seed as it does to table potatoes. THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO The consumer is demanding more ,and more a high quality; product, and “f farmers are to dispose of their crop at a profit they must make spe~ cfal efforts to put up a high grade article. Mechanical injury, cuts and bruises. which not infrequently develop into serious rots are often caused by imâ€" proper digging methods; Potatoes should be dug when the soil is rea- sonably dry. The digger shOuld be so adjusted that plenty; of soil is carried between the machine and the tubers. This applies :both to the ele- vator and to the rotary type of ma- chine. Padding should be inserted or .so placed on or near the moving parts of the digger to act as a bumper. A simple change or adjustment or padding here and there will often eliminate considerable injury. JUST UNLOADED CAR; 0F 0 A T S FULL LINES 0F FEEDS ‘ourable weather conditions causing i decay adversely) affected the produc- . tion of early and midseason varieties. Late varieties are in good condition. The sizing of peaches has been ex- cellent, but somewhat offset by brownâ€"rot conditions. The Alberta. crop new being harvested shown very little loss. The weather has been favourable for the development of all varieties of pears, but worm injury is quite prevalent in many hartlett orchards. Care Required in Harvestingr Potatoes The time has arrived When the late potato crop is to be harvested and growers,should give careful thought to ways and means of eliminating, as far as poasible, a lot of the unnecess- ary cuts and bruises which result from careless or poor harvesting and hand- ling. The grape crop is sizing; and colâ€" ouring well, with generall:,\ compact bunches. The Hopper damage is more patchy this season than usual, and in some vineyards quite severe inâ€" jury has occurred. Otherwise pests are well under control.

Horses, cows, sheep and pigs were all needed, it was it gave some idea of the amount of equipment which had been used on this farm. The Examiner made in- quiries from dealers in farm imple- ments with the idea of finding out what would be required to replace this equipment. That is, if a person were starting in to farm how mucn cash would he require to have at his disposal all the equipment which was being offered at this sale.

One farmer to whom The Examâ€" iner showed the list said it was per- hatps just an average amounfi of equipment, and he mentioned several pieces of machinery he was using which Were not on the list. (The Peterboro Examiner) There was an announcement recent- ly in a weekly) paper of an auction sale of farm implements in Oxford County. There was nothing unusual about the notice or the sale itself, but A FARMERS INVESTMENT It is your business. It is one of your responsibilities to yourself and to the community. It is one of your duties as a citizenâ€"and it is one of your duties as a human being to help save others from,a needless death or in- jury. You are your brother’s keep- er. In Ontario, the Department of Highways is determined they will not happen. But to prevent them, it needs your help. You must drive (and walk) carefully, sanely. You imust stop taking chances. And you must make sure that others do the same thing by reporting those who endanger lives by‘ reckless driving. Dismiss anry silly prejudice which suggests “it's none of your business.” Accidents are horrible. Horrible to hear about al.d look at. Horrible in the pain and agony and sorrow they bring. Most horrible in the realiza- tion that they: need not happen! Horrible, isn‘t it? But neither un- common nor exaggerated. It is simply a factual report of one of the 501 motor accidents in 1936 which re- sulted in fatalities. The headline in the newspaper the next day read something like: “One dead in curve crash, two in hospital may die." You’ve seen dozens of headlines just like it, but how often do you stop to think of the hideous picture of blood and pain- and death which lies behind them. Help comes almost immediately. Limp, broken bodies are dragged from the wreckage and laid on the roadside. A thin red stream trickles over the runningâ€"board of the car and forms a pool on the highway. One body is covered- with a blanket. Two others are rushed to the hos- pital; there may still be time to save them. A bystander peers curiously into the back of the car. He turns away with a shudder and is violently sick; someone else fishes out an arm and tucks it under the blanket be- side the still body. A man, one arm hanging limp, crawls from the wreckage. One ear has been flayed from the side of his head. He leans over someone else in the car, then collapses. A pleasant Sunday afternoon in the country. Thousands of happy families “out for a drive,” whizzing along on a typically picturesque On- tario highway. Suddenly, around a curveâ€"screams, the shriek of brakes and tires, a terrific crash, the screech of tearing metal, the sickening shat- ter of glass, agonizing moansâ€"then a deathly; moment of silence.

It would seem then that taking up a farm is not as simple as it may sound. When a farmer buys imfileL ments he is dealing in something- which constantly decreases in value. and each year brings him clOSer to the time when he will face expendi~ ture for replacement. agreed, and we found no one who said a man should go with less than three horses and there were ethers who urged if he were going' to start at all he should not do so without well-bred COWS and pigs. So we place the starting figure arount the $1,500 mark, ant in doing so admit it: is open to discussion. So that would bring the farm investment for live stock and implemenigs up to $4,500. and that price does not include of course the farm itself and the build- ings.
