Poor lambs are not good sellers and are unsatis- factory to all sections of the trade, 'including the consumer. This year |pastures are excellent all over Can- lada ard there is no farm animal that puts on cheaper gains than the growingr lamb on good grass. All far- zmers can increase the value of their lambs by a closer check-up in weights and marketing at the right time. Good ea at all stl plants and is an 9599‘ As a rule lambs from the more common domestic breeds of sheep d!) not finish for market at farm weights under 90 pounds to 100 pounds (840 to 90 lb. at the market). Before selling lambs it is always wise to use the scales. This is particularly important at. the present time so that the sale of underweight lambs may be avoided. Good early lambs are in demand at all stockyard centres. packing plants and city markees. Lamb meat is an especial favourite in the home, at tourist centres, and in hotels and restaurants. When it is said that lamb is a popular meat, this means good to choice lamb from well fin- Farmers are cautioned to exercise greater care in the marketing of lan‘ibs at this season of the year. Prices for good early lambs have been very satisfactory until about August lst when many farmers, no doubt tempted by prevailing prices during the last week in July, began to market lambs that should have been held on pastures for at least a month, and in many cases two months. An oversupply of poor lambs resulted in a serious drOp on all lamb markets, and while the situation has partly cerrected itself, the market is still sensitive to weak- ness if producers continue to market undesirable lambs. Rogueing Potato Fields Rogueing is a valuable method for the control of certain degeneration or “running out” diseases of potaâ€" toes of virus origin. Rogueing im- plies the detection, lifting, removali and destruction of virus infected plants. As a control measure the practice is particularly valuable a- gain-:1; the three common potato disâ€" eases, mosaic, leafroll and spindle tuber. ‘These three diseases produce characteristic symptoms on the po- tato plant. Mosaic diseases produce a mottling effect in the foliage. Leaf- roll causes a slight, general yellowâ€" ing of the foliage. and an upward rolling of the leaves. Spindle tuber intensifies the green colour of the leaves, imparts an upright, staring appearance to the plant, and causes the production of spihldly or misâ€" shapen tubers with bulging eyes. It has been shown that rogueing should be timely and systematic. Us- ually, mosaic and leafroll can- be de- tected in, the field when the plants are about four inches high. At this stage of development the field should be systematically examined row by row for the presence of virus infested plants. Rogueing should be done preferably on dark or dull days as the light conditions are then best for the detection of mosaic. On bright days the operator should carry an umbrella or traverse the potato rows in such a manner that his sha- dow is-cast over the plants immediâ€" ately before him. The operator should carry some type of closed container, and when a diseased plant is detected, it should be lifted in its entirety with as little disturbance as possible and deposited in the conâ€" tainer. Under no circumstances should diseased plants be pulled and left in: the rows, nor should they be carried out and deposited on the headland. Diseased plants should al- ‘11 Lamb Required (31 Market | Spring grains have matured early °this season and reports indicate that the yield per acre will generally range from average to slightly above average in- practically all counties. Harvesting is about a week earlier than usual. Damage was caused by the most severe outbreak of army . worm in the last fifty years, but for the province as a whole the less would probably not exceed 2%. In- dividual fields. however suffered 10% to 157? injury, and in a few cases much greater. Severe rainâ€" storms resulted in considerable lodg- ing in some parts, making cutting difficult. but. the loss is not serious, while in Eastern Ontario, grasshop- pers caused rather severe damage in several localized areas. Rust is af- fecting the grain crop in Eastern Ontario, but the yield is expected to be a good average and considerably above the poor yields of 1937. Precipitation was sufficient for die- velcping crops during July through- out most of the province. Heavy rains fell in early August, lodging standing crops over large areas. The rainfall has been beneficial for the growth of late crops and prospects for these crops, which includes corn, late potatoes, buckwheat, sugar beets and turnips, are considered quite favourable. Pastures are also show- ing improvement in all sections, and as a result livestock are in good con- dition and milk flow is being well maintained. Current CGC Report Farmers are well along with the harvesting ‘of splendid .graincroprs. In Western Ontario practically all grains are now harvesied except late oats, while in Central Ontario about 75% of the grain is cut and in East- ern Ontario about 50%. In North- ern Ontario the harvest is well under way. Stock threshing proeeeded rap- idly up to August lst, but was in- terrupted by frequent and heavy rains during the first. two weeks of August. ways be carried from the field and then immediately destroyed by burn- ing.. Rogueing should be systemati- cally practised at weekly intervals until the potato vines begin to ma- ture. For further information write to the nearest Plait. Pathological Laboratory. The average yield of fall wheat for the entire province is row estiâ€" mated at 27 bushels per acre. as compared with 26 bushels in 1937, and a preceding 15-year average of 25.1 bushels. ‘The harvested acreage of 742,062 acres is the highest since 1927, and compares with 718,813, acres last year. ‘TO‘tal pvroducbion will amount to approrimately 20,- 036,000 bushels, which is the largest crop since 1926. In Eastern, West- ern and Central Ontario, the yield per acre was reduced and the qual- ity considerably lowered by leaf and stem rust. In each of these three sections. the yield was about three bushels per acre less than in 1937, but in Southern Ontario, which comâ€" prises the two rows of counties 'bor- dering Lake Erie and where half the acreage is located, the yield was al- most five bushels higher than a year ago and this more than offset the decline ini other sections. Heat and rust reduced the crop most severely in the counties of Grey, Bruce, Hur- on, Wellington and Perth. Prices of farm products have de- clined recently and are now gener« ally below the level of a year ago. In the case of grain crops the de- crease from last August is very con- siderable and is due to larger world crops. In Ontario farm income is largely determined by the prices of secondary commodities such as cat- tle, hogs. ‘butter, eggs etc. all of which are down in price.

TREASURER’S SALE OF LANDS IN ARREARS 0F TAXES By virtue of a Warrant issued by the Reeve of :Richmond H111 dated the 6th day of July 1938, and to me directed, commanding me to proceed with the collection of arrears of Taxes, together with the fees and expenses, I hereby give notice that the list of lands liable to be sold for taxes has been prepared, and .is be- ing published in the “Ontario Gaz- ette” under the dates of August 6th, September 3rd and October lst, 1938. and that, unless the said arrears of taxes and costs are sooner paid, L shall, on the 5th day of December, 1938 proceed to sell the said lands to discharge the said arrears of Taxes and the charges thereon.

Reforest King Twp. lMorg’an Baker Says That He Will i Seek Enabling Legislation “Mr. Davis had surveys made at his own expense and a map has been preyared showing the council as it was 40 years ago and as it is today,” said Mr. Baker. “The contrast is startling, with forests depleted, wells and streams drie‘l up and wild life gone. Continuance of the program to restore these things depends on gov- ernment contributions to supplement the voluntary efforts of Mr. Davis. “Premier ‘Ryepburn and the federal government are sympathetic, and the only thing that is holding it up is the fact there is no statute permitt- ing the government to spend money on private prOperty. I hope at the next session to seek legislation per- mitting reforestation on this land.” Government assistance for the plan launched by Aubrey Davis of New- market to restore forests, streams and wild life in King township may be provided next year. Morgan Bak- er, M.P.P. announced at the York county forestry field day his inten- tion of seeking legislation permitting such aid. Moved by memories of the forests and streams of his boyhood, Mr. Dav- is, a native of the township, launched the scheme two years ago with the hope that governments would “take a hand". “Mother,” said little John, burstng into the house, “there’s going to be trouble at the chmist’s.
