Alsike clover seed this year is only slightâ€" ly more than 25 per cent of last year‘s crop. The output of red cloâ€" ver, brome and other gass seeds may be down this year in compariâ€" son with a year ago. Since the war began vegetable seed production in Canada has beâ€" come a relatively important indusâ€" try. It has been assisted by the Agriculture Department. Prior to 1939 most of the field root and veâ€" getables seeds used in Canada were imported from European countries, but when those countries were ocâ€" cupied by Germany, home producâ€" tion became a necessity. Now Canâ€" agian grown seeds are of even a higher quality than those which were grown in Europe and are proâ€" duced in sufficient quantities to meet all domestic needs.

Yields of spring grains were up substantially from last &:ar’s disappointing reâ€" turns and quality generally was good. Production of cats is estimâ€" ated at 65,036,000 bushels, as comâ€" pored with 34,677,000 bushels last year; barley, 10,956,000 bushels as against 6,417,000 bushels; and mixed grains, 37,392,000 bushels as compared with 20,406,000 bushels. A large crop of canning peas was ’harvested and the pack of tomatoes was heavy, notwithstanding some damage from extreme summer heat. Canning corn returns were below normal, but pientiful supâ€" plies of the fodder variety are inâ€" [dicated. with production estimated at 3,319,000 tons. Early potatoes }wt-re satisfactory in quality and yield, but late potatoes were affectâ€" ‘ed by blight and lack of moisture Consider the effect of maturity upon the quality or grade of the corn. It is commonly known that curn is bought largely on the basis not sufficient. There is afiways the question of maturity to be considâ€" cred. Corn when it is harvested contains moisture, and the amount of moisture it contains has a direct kearing upon its yield. Any referâ€" ence to corn containing 20, 30 or 40 per cent of moisture is another way of saying the corn contains 80, 70 or 60 per cent of dry matter or dry substance, and it is this dry matter which counts. Obviously corn with 80 per cent of dry matter or 20 per cent of moisture is better corn than that containing 30 or 40 per cent of moisture. The 20 per cent moisture corn yields just as much at 50 bushâ€" eis per acre as the 40 per cent moisâ€" ture corn does at 67%% bushels per acre. Bushels per acte may not alâ€" ways be a true indication of the wctual yield, but must be related to the maturity or moisture content which the corn contains. and total production will be slightâ€" ly below normal. Chenr:z’ and strawberry crops were co erabâ€" ly less than average and plums and pears were below normal. Raspâ€" berries gave a fairly satisfactory yield and peaches, grapes and apâ€" ples were well up to average. Saâ€" tisfactory crops of turnips and mangolds are reported, with belowâ€" average yields indicated for buck= wheat, white beans and honey. Production of sugar beets, estimatâ€" ed at 125,000 tons, is much below rormal, but up substantially from a year ago. Pastures generally were in good condition until midâ€" summer, but dried up rapidly in August, when milk production dropped sharply in many regions. Rains during recent weeks have reâ€" vived pastures somewhat and beneâ€" fited late crop materially. Indicaâ€" tions are that winter feed supplies The grower of grain corn should ulways keep two important facts in r:indâ€"the effects of maturity upon the yield, and the quality or grade of his crop. With respect to yield there is alâ€" weys the tendency for the producer to grow .the later maturing varieâ€" tics or hybrids, because experience has taught him that they tend to produce more bushels per acre than those of earlier maturity. But a mere measure of bushels ges- acre is not sufficient. There is always the GRAIN CORN AND in most districts will be sufficient for requirements. t .To » ;%ix“x{m 4 f . j \<§§’>’i~5Ԥ, § _ t Sss o oafp _ t Nl wiye 3 /P 1 a ‘.e.ffl;'-,‘i'?:-‘*5_5._.5-‘55""'.; . 2. f w ahaise COd f nssy 1 > t3 \ cR M AbdPF 3 o ie t s . .:g;;}:“ “ m,a -q,i‘ ‘ i,ugfl water, close to highway, etc. For that service that satisfies, contact me for your sale, whether it‘s farm nocl, hnr‘lemonu or household effects. y services Nov. 2, Thursday, at 1 p.m.â€" Farm, stock, implements, feed, 1 mile north and 1 mile west of Stratford for F.
