Thos. L. Kennedy, from mendiantsand dealers i Bitain, expressing gra- tification at again being able to secure apples from this province, and. commenting very favorably on the quality and condition of the fruit on arrival. In each of the barrels shipped. a small, handsomely illustrated folder, en- titled, "Ontario Apples Return to the M otherland,"1 and asking for commenta to be sent back on the condition of the apples, was plac- cd, and the lettters neceived are the nesult of this publicity effort. Below are given some extracta frorn some of the letters received rcgarding the arrival of these ap- ples in Britain. "I work for the NAAFI in the Royal Marine Barracks, and just the other day we receivcd some of your apples, which I must say were lovely and were ia a good condition. In fact, out of one of those barnels we had only five specked apples. In the banrel was a colored picture, which was ra- ther creased and tomn. I wonder if I could worry you to send me one that is new, as I would very much like to frame it. You see, I arn getting marnied soon, and I would like this as a memory of war days in the NAAFI. "Dean Sir, I arn the owner of a small general- shop, and I would like to take this oppontunity of cornrenting fayorably on the re- cent consignment of Ontario ap- pies, of which I received a small allocation. They arrived in good condition and are finm and sound. Their lovely color made an im- pressive display in y window. "I would, however, like to sug- gest that you give us a little more information about them, e.g., their name, type of soul on which they were gnown, and I would also like to see the name and address of the packer filled in. "I would add one other item; the container will make an ex- cellent kennel for my young bitch, who is expecting a family shortly. Trusting to neceive- increasing quantities of your apples in the near future, I remain, yours sin- cerely." -L. H. Tucker. "Dear Sir: Having received some barrels of youn apples, packed by a person of the name of Lynes Myles, and inviting comments, I, as secretary of the Medway Towns Branch of the Retail Fruit Trade Federation would like to express our gratification at tie chance to resume receipts o! your fruit. There is one small criticism only I would like to mention; the tight packing tends to make thern bruise. With kind regards to you, sir, and hoping to receive more allocations of your fruit, I amn, yours sîncerely, -C. G. Mack." Business Directory LEGÂL W. R. STRIKE, K.C.

DEVITT & RUDELL> Agriculture a Risky Business, Forum Topic Monday, January Gth It is estimated that Canadian farmers lose over $22 million an- nually froma weeds and that tic sawfiy has cost western farmers around $30 million yeanly in wieat. losses. In Saskatchewan alone, farmers lose over $2 mii- lion a ycar from hail. These arc some o! tic reasons why fanming is a rîsky business. No matter what kind o! farming you do you face risks o! weather, pests and disease in addition to tic hazards of fine and fluctuating pnices tuat confront ail businesses more on less. Some o! tic farmcr's risks can be anticipated and thus beaten in advance-for instance, by tic spraying o! fruit trees. About 50 per cent o! our apples would be wormy if tic trees wcre not sprayed. Special varieties o! wieat have been bred and arc now used to resist tic wheat hazards o! frost, rust and wheat stem saw- fiy. Contagious diseases o! animals arc controlled by tic Healti o! Animais Division o! thc Dominion Dcpartrnent o! Agriculture. In animal disease control Canada lcads tic world. Because o! cane- fui inspection and governmcnt ne- gulation foot-and-mouti disease is pnactically unknown in Canada. Anthrax and glanders are rare. Hog cholera outbncaks occur sornetirnes but anc quickly brougit under control. Neariy 3,000 herds arc under tic supervision o! tic Heati o! Animais Division for tic control o! Bang's Disease. Bo- vine tubeiculosis is well on tic way W ceradication. Under the thrce plans o! tic Healti o! An- irnals Division ticre are 34,836 supervised herds, 8,332 fully ac- credited herds, and 300 accredited arcas in Canada tuat are free o! T.B. cattle. Cnop insurance and hail insur- ance anc badly needed in tic prairie provinces wiere frost, wind, hall and drougit arc tic great enemies o! tic farmer. Un- der tic Prairie Farrn Assistance Act tic Dorninion Govcrnment offers a form o! crop insurance. Tic Alberta governmcnt sponsors a voluntary co-openative hail in- surance plan under tic Alberta Hail Insurance Board.

Taunton and Hampton have been outatanding in show rings when it cornes to fltting slieep for top competition. This lias lately been well empliasized in the higli lon- ors won by lierdsman Anson Bal- son, wio fitted and showed a pen of Suiffolks for the Beardmore Fanxns, Mono Mil]s, Ont., which were shown at thc International Livestock Show at Chicago, last month. In tic flock o! eight shown by Mr. Balson against competition from ail across North America, the following pnizes were won: First on aged ram; finst on yearling ram; second on ram lamb; finst on pen of threc ram lambs; finst, third and fifth on yearllng ewes; second on ewe lamb; second on pen of three ewe lambs and sec- ond on get o! sire. Capping these wins the Beard- more flock came tirougi with the Grand Championsiip on ram and ewe and the English Suffolk So- ciety Cup for the best pen of Suffolk sheep at the show. It is believed that no other Canadian entries in any branci o! livestock rated so many pnizes. Anson Balson, manager of Beardmore Farms, is a son of Mn. and Mns. John W. Balson, Hamp- ton, and a former member o! the well known Balson Quartette. He was with the Beath Farms, Ked- ron before taking charge of the Beardmore Farms. There is much pride in the fact that anothen Dur- ham County boy contrîbuted s0 handsomely to put Canada on the map at the world's gneatest live- stock show. Canadian Represents International Fede'.6 At F.A.O. Commission The views o! the International Federation of Agnicultunal Pro- ducers respecting the proposed world food board and other sirn- ilar proposals, were pnesented on Decemben 20, to the FAO pre- paratony commission now sitting in Washington, by a Canadian, H. H. Hannam, President of the Can- adian Federation of Agriculture, who is the only North Amenican representative on tie executive o! the international federation. Mn. Hannam appeaned in tie place of James Turner, o! Eng- land President of the internation- al fedenation, who was unable to corne to Washington. He was ac- companied by W. J. Panker, Win- nipeg, vice-pnesident of the Can- adian Fedenation, and President o! the Manitoba Pool Elevatons, who was chairman of the market- ing committee of the International Farmens' Conference in London last May. In his statement to the FAO commission, Mr. Hannam made it plain that the international gath- enîng of farmers in London wene entinely in accord with the two main objective outlined by Sir John Boyd Orr when he proposed his wonld food boand. These two objectives were the production, distribution and utilization of food pnoducts for the benefit o! al peoples, and the stabilization of agnicultural pnices at levels fair to consumer and producer alike. Mn. Hannam stressed the im- portance o! assured markets and stabilized pnices for the farmers of the world, who were ready and willing to produce abundantly if they had guanantee of suci sta- bility. He also stnessed the need of some forn of international ma- ciineny to accomplisi the objec- tives mentioned. Real progness, he said, is flot likcly to be made unless and until an international action agency exists to organize and co-nelate and guide on a world basis, the suggested expanding food production, distribution and consumption. A NEW YEAR By Daugliter o! the Parsonage Anotier year has corne youn way, Sm0 Bushel P.t.t. Competitions Heuded By Pontypool Grower Two hundred and eightY-two potato growers of Ontario took part in fifteen 500-Bushel Compe- titions throughout the province in 1946, according to a report on these competitions issued by R. E. Goodin, potato fildman fbr the Ontario Department of Agricul- ture. Records for these contests have now been completed, and the highest overal i yld was that ob- tained by Henry Blakely, Ponty- pool, Durham County, with a yield of 679 bushels to the acre. The Sudbury District Club, with 18 contestants, had the highest aver- age contest yield of 479 bushels. The average yield for the 282 con- testants was 379 bushels per acre, as compared with an average for the whole province in 1946 of 149 bushels. Six competitors secured over 600 bushels per acre, fifty- two had over 500 bushels and 36 between 400 and 500. The Ontario Crop Improvement Association gave certificates of menit to each contestant exceed- ing the 500 bushel mark and ten engraved gold watches plus prize money of $3,000 were shared by the winners. Twenty-nine competed for the Grand Championship at the Royal Winter Fair, which was won by Milton Weatherilt and Sons, Be- thany, the award, $250, plus a trophy and a free trip to the fair. Two important wins therefore were made by Durham County growers, Henry Blakely, Ponty- pool, and Milton Weatherilt and Sons. Sudbury growers stood well up in the finals and captur- ed the grand average yield per acre. The yield pen acre was won by Henny Blakely wîth 679 bushels, followed by Adrien Joliat, Sud- bury with 673, and Clifford Wall- work, Stouffville, 632. In all these yields the variety grown was Chippewas.
