York Soil Map Completed and Now Available Another milestone was passed last weék by those working for better- ment of agriculture in York County when a Soil Map of the CGunty v‘vas presented by Professor G. N. Ruhnke of the 80115 Department of the On- tario Agricultural College through the agriculturai committee to County Council. The map which is the re- sult of almost two years examina- tion and testing of soils by a field staff and their coâ€"workers, in the soils laboratory shows in detail the various types of soil and subsoil, topography, drainage, lime content. present land use and fertility needs. .Many will recall the un‘annOunc-ed in- spections of fields by a couple of young men particularly in the sum- mer of 1940' when they were fre- quently reported to local police as suspected enemy agents or fifth columnists. Professor Ruhnrk-e, introduced. to Council by Agricultural Representa- tive W. M. Cbcldburn as one of the outstanding soil authorities on the continent pointed out some of the many uses of the map in such mat- ters as adaptation of crops, guide to soil treatments, locatiOn of demon- strations, mineral deficiency areas. choosing of farm locations, and even perhaps arriving at assessment values. A somewhat similar map was provided also for the use of the agricultural representative, for use in his office and at agricultural meetings. Mr. L. Webber of the field staff also spoke briefly exâ€" plaining some of the findings. Warden C. C. Downey in accept- ing the I map thanked Professor Ruhnke for the splendid work ac- complished by his staff and compli- imen'ted the agricultural committee for having had the task undertaken. He expressed his hope that every effort would be made to make the information available to and made use of by the farmers of the county. Chairman R. W. Scott of the Ag- ricultural Committee pointed out that the map would no doubt the of con- siderable vaLue to the Agricultural Representative in: the survey and study that is now ‘being made of the occurrence of bloat on‘ so many alfalfa pastures of recent years. Operations of the Canadian Farm Loan Board to March 3lst, 1941 Since the year 1929, the Farm Loan Board has been loaning- money to bona ‘fide farmers on a twenty- five year plan in a numiber of the pvgvinvces of Canada and‘ in the Prov- inlce of Ontario since 1935. While theme are a comparatively small number of borrowers whose accounts are in arrears, the record of repayment on» the whole (by the lborrowersi in the province of Ontario since loaning was instituted has been satisfactory. During the fiscal year the Board received. payment from borrowers in the province amounting- to $203,892.40 on account of interest and! $262,057.91 on account 0f prinâ€" cipal. Interest over six months in arrears on First Mortgage loans aâ€" mountedI to $8,978.46 and principal over six months in arrears on First Mortgage loans amounted to $20,- 624.13 as at the cl‘Ose of the year. To the end of the last fiscal year, March 3~lst, 19411, the Board had loaned in all provinces a total of $415,697,415“; of which $36,947; 883.17 was outstanding at the above date. The Board also holds real estate to the value of $306,567.98 and agreements for sale to the a- mount of $443,566.24. The Board operates as a selfâ€"sup- porting agency of the Dominion Government andt provides for its ad‘â€" mimi/strative costs and reserves for losses from its revenues after pay- ing interest on monries \borrowed‘ for loaning purposes. The cost of op- eration ‘for the year ending March 31‘st, 1941, is less than 1% of the va‘lue of the assets under adminis- tration. In the last fiscal year, the Board loaned: a total of $2,,7‘275‘0’7JS. Col- lections in the last fiscal year tort- alilcd $3,840,950.80, consisting of $2,- 056,974.16 of principal repayments and $1,783,976.64 of interest pay- ments. «Since the inception of oper- ations borrowers have repaid’ $8,- 782,169.48 off .the\prin-cipa1 of their loans. In the Province of Ontario, the Board has loaned a ‘total of $5387,- 548.98 to date and of this amount $4,646,785.28 was outstanding at the close of the fiscal year. -0ut of a total of 2608 First Mort- THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL; ONTARIO llimp Experiments ! To Benefit Farmer 722 famers and junior farmeré com d'uct 246 projects on 1590 acres in 44 counties and districts. There will :be a lot of interesting 5nd) valuable crop information reâ€" leased for the benefit of Ontario farmers when the 44 county and: dis- trict branches of the Ontario Crop Associations hold their annual meet- ings. During the past summer, 722 farmers and junior farmers have co- operated with C'ounrty Cl‘op Improve- ment Associations in conducting 2416 rroje'cts on 1,590 acres. It has been found, for example. that no one variety of oats or barley can be recommended for all Ontario. A variety which does particularly welll in one county may not prove adaptable neanby as a result; of soil and! climatic conditions. Therefore in. order to determine the best vari- eties for each county and district, these branch Associations have com:â€" ductedl their own tests. These 722 energetic crop associa- tion members provided land: on their ia'rms. They prepared the seed [bledb and planted, cared5 for and’ harvestâ€" ed the crop. In many projects two or more varieties were sown» Side .‘by side for comparison purposes. Field «meetings were held and necerde kept. Data. regarding each project is prepared' for distribution for mem- In addition to tests with wheat, oats and barley, projects in‘clud‘e‘dl tests with hay-pasture mixtures, early and late cut Ihay, fertilizer tests, potato, hybrid corn and soy- bean tests, weedl control demonstra- tions and tests with summer and fall pasture mixtures.
