y r, .TULY 14th, 1949 IPea C op f 1948 Show W ide jSpread in Prof its A very close cost analysis on the commercial pea crop was comnpiled under auspices of the Ontario Department of Agricul- ture in four Ontario counties last year in order to determine net returns. The report recently is- oued will bc of interest to local growers. It is pointed out that 1948 was an excellent year for peas grown for canning purposes. Records were kept by 145 growers in the counties of Essex, Norfolk, Hu- ron and Prince Edward. Top yield per acre was 2464 lbs. and l~.owest yield was 1215 lbs. Sreturns in Prince Edward ~wèe $377.97 against $75.71 per acre in Essex Net returns and yields are as follows: Essex-$73.71 net return per acre and 1,215 pounds, yield per acre. Huron-S131.85 net return and 3,092 pounds. yield per acre. Norfolk-$157.82 net return and 1,997 pounds, yield per acre. Prince Edward-S377.97 net re- turn and 2,464 pounds, yield per acre. Seed-ibed preparation required Borne three moan hours labor per Care in Essex :in Huron it was five hours; Norflok five hours and Prince Edward three hours. Planting required two hours in 8il counties where the records were maintaned. Harvesting required five hours per acre in Essex; 22 hlours in Huron; nine hours in Norfolk and eight in Prince Edward. The yelloxv flower of the vanilla plant is a type of orchid.

This holiday outing was arranged by Agricul- tural Representative E. A. Sum- mers, BSA, to correspond with similar Suniday Services organized across Ontario within the Junior Farrner movement. Those parti- cipating wiil bring their own pic- nic lunches to enjoy the social occasion and take part in a fine program. The speaker will be R. C. Ban- bury, ESA, Agricultural Repres- entative for North u m b e n a n d County, who is noted as an out- standing orator. Following the address there will be interesting discussions and probably a hike to explore the work being done in the Ganaraska area. This new de.. parture is important in that it offers a unique impetus in keepinig up interest among Junior Farm- ers. A very large attendance is expected. Mark the date and plan to be there. World Production of apparel wool during 1948-49 season is ex- pected te rise three per cent over last year 'o 2,940 million pounds. Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa ail registered an in- crease fer thîs year, offsetting de- clines in the Argentine and the United States. A moderate im- provement in the menino clips of Australia and South Afnica re- verses the downward trend of fine wools in the last few years. lapctnese Beetie Again on Warpath Undete-tcd by immigration authorities, the Japanese beetle has again invaded Ontaro. Dis- covery of a few of these public enemies was made in western OntLrio a wcek or so ago and dragnets have been put out in the form of traps from Toronto to Niagara and Windsor. The pub- lic are warned te be on the look- out for these marauders which consume plant lite faster than any other specics of predatory bug. Firz't seen in Ontario in 1916, another invasion occurred in 1940 and both xvere stamped out. The Ontario government has taken prompt steps te round up the in- vaders and public cooperation is requested te be on the lookout ight across the province. The following description of the beetle will assist in its dotection. Aduit beetle is '2_ long, bronze- brown in celer wîth coppery wing cnvers hlending with a metaliic- green head and undercarriage. Beneath the wings on each side are 5 White spots ivith haïr clus- ters. If discovered in this dis- trict, please notity Agricultural Representative Ed. Summers. Hundredth Birthday Passed by 23 F'airs In Ontario Province One of Canada's oldest institu- tions, the Faul Fair, will again boid the Iimeiight in a month or so and from, the largest te ti*- srnall- est, each is an event cf oxtreme importance bi is own loraiity. Ontario Agricultural Societies' Branrb of the Ontanio Department of Agriculture, etf vhich J1. A. Carroll is superintendent, bds just had printed the 1949 iist cf fair dates. It is issued by the Dopart- ment and during September and October as many as 25 Eai Fairs are scheduled for some days of the week. An intercsting feature of this year's list is the fart that of the more than 260 tains and exhibi- tiens listed, 23 of themn are this yean starting their second centu[ry. They observed their anniversary last year and directors are pro- paring for much biggor things as they enter on their second cen- tury. "The Fail Fair provides a sort of show-window tor the smailor communities, just as the bigger tains offer industry an oppontunity te advertise its wares in the dis- trict served by the F1air," Mn. Carroll said. "Then the Fall Fair aise gives real impetus te improving agri- cultural practices." Mr. Carroll petitions encourage botter breed- ing and cane cf animais; compoti- tiens in ail the varions classes et the Fair, bning about botter pro- duction et grain, vogetabies, meth- ods et production and in a bost of other ways give the farmor a high- goal te aim. at. In Nortbern Ontario the Fali Fair is an outstanding ovont, es- pecialiy in areas where farms are widespread and people in romoto areas meet their neiglibours only on rare occasions. In the 1949 li-t earliest ovents are in car]lY August although there are livestock shows and other exhibitions duning the eai-ly summer. Thon there is the Can- adian National Exhibition which bas been described. as "The Show Win.dow ot the World" ,wicli this 'ear will be held tromn August '16 te September 10. The latest cf ail is the Royal Winter Fair held on November 1.5 te 23. However, from. the smallest te the biggest, oach has ils own in- dividuai importance in tho bocality whirb it serves. This importance is otton beyond actual caiculation. One cf the important tratL1rcs ot niost exhibitions this year is a class ton Junior Farmens cf On- tarie.

"It is absolutely essential that rocovery lBe made, however."' "It is fortunate that the natural forost conditions are completely favourable te recovery. It is net a matter of fighting against nature te produce some sort of torest rover. tegardiess of its commercial value. Old Ontallio was ene of the great forest reg- ions of Canada, and money spent on forestrv xiil pay excellent dividends," Mn. Gilmour stated. "Forestry is a long-termn pro- position. Especially is this true \vhere we must start cither \vith bare ground or very badly damag- ed \xoodlots. However -with good forest practise some returns ran be lookod for even in one or two decacies, and these wiil increase in laten years. The pnivate owner who has the courage and the oationco wiil get a good return even if ho pay' s al the costs him- sel£ftrom the stant. "The province shares in the gains cf torestry, and should pay therefore a part of the cost.* The easiost way, and the most effec- tive, in my opinion, would he for the province te advance money at a rate somewhat lower than they must pay for the money they borrow. The apparent loss they make on this transaction would be their share," Mn. Gilmour saici. "If it is consideredi that the province mighit reasonably bear about 40r% of the cost, and a 50- year period j., allowed, it will ho found that if the province boans monoy at 1 % boss than the ' have te pay for it, their apparent loss, or their contribution, comes te about 39[,,. The provincial gev- ernment gains immediateiy thro- ugb the sale of trees instead of giving themn away for planting. In the long run through preser- vation of fish and game, hy tour- ist revenues, and indirect taxes, their gains are incalculable," a rOPU LAR CANNING BULLETIN READY A bulletin wbich, wilI prove f 0 ho vl ousewives m'ho missed the last printing, is 'Homo Cao- ning cf Fruits and Vegetables," prepared by the Consumer Ser- vice, Dominion Department of Agriculture.
