Central vIwm^mKmWM S rich pasture lands have, from the earliest days of settlement, sustained larger herds of dairy cattle than were necessary to the Province''s own needs. In these 'earliest'' days, which were not much more than a century ago, dairy production was exceedingly primitive, but the 1891 census disclosed the existence of 1,565 cheese factories in the Dominion, of which Ontario had 893. Today, this great showing is par' alleled in every branch of Canada^s dairying industry . . . To- morrow, the Province's facilities will be more than equal to the demand for milk and its growing diversity of products. PublUhed by THE BREWING INDUSTRY (ONTARIO) r A CORNER OIV COIVES Neariy gix billion puunds of milk are coa- sumrd or pnK-e«8ed annually in Ontario; the yearly value of Ontario dairy priMlucU runs around $140,000,000; Ontario butter and chr<«e production is about 200,000.000 piHinda a year. The chief credit fw these fat figure*, which are about one-thini of the totals for the entire Dominion, goes to Ontario's 1,200,000 milk rows â€" themselves a third of Canada's dairy herds. The Province's 8,0OO,(NH) gallons of ire cream, how- ever, amount annually to 50% of the nation's 'sundae- best" â€" whieh may explain the notieeahleconeHimHeioUHDess of young Ouiarians. -« •f â- r >•
