Barley Crop Important Barley has competed strongly with wheat as a revenue producer on On- tario farms. This grain holds an im- portant place. for several reasons. It is a comparatively high yielder. Experi- ments show that mixed with early oats. returns from the combination exceed highest yields obtainable from either min separately. Also. in analyses, it is shown that in carbohydrates and pro- tein. barley compares very favorably with field corn. Barley is also the north country corn. In northern counties, where early frosts render the 31-0ng season too short for the production of arse c159 "6t eom. bailey is found an excellent substitute.

Mr. Carroll gives as the underlying reason the fact {hat Canadian eggs are government graded. and declares: “Guesswork is eliminated. The annoyance and disap- pointment of paygng for a ‘high_ quality product and receiving an inferior one. is a thing of the past in Canada. so far as the egg business is concerned. The old expression. ‘let the buyer beware’ is obsolete in this country when eggs are being purchased. The Canadian con- sumer decides the quality of eggs he or she purchases. not the dealer. provid- ng the eggs are bought by grade. As {or the eflect or this huge consumption on general prosperity. consider these figures. The farmer received an aver- age price of 23 cents a dozen for his eggs. or a total revenue of $69...940000 The consumer paid an average price of 38.5 cents a dozen or a total of $117.- i76.000.

Any grower who does not receive a form is asked to write for one, to the Secretary, Ontario Growers’ Markets Council, Bruce Bldg., Hamilton. A concerted effort is to be made to provide next season against any repetition of the disastrous marketing season experien- cer by many growers this year. In so far as fruit and vegetables are concerned dependable information has been available from practically all pro- ducing districts in Canada with the ex- ception of Ontario. This has resulted in Ontario production always being a most disturbing factor on- domestic and export markets and the net returns to the growers for their production highly unsatisfactory. With this infor- mation available for Ontario, however, an accurate estimate of Canadian pro- duction can be made and thus closer working facilities can be arranged be- tween all the fruit and vegetable pro- ducing provinces in order that the greatest advantage may be taken of all possible markets.

Experiments have shown that 20 per cent better fertil- ity and 6.4 per cent better hatchability of fertile eggs can be obtained from birds where alfalfa hay instead of straw is used as litter in the breeding pens. The alfalfa should be used as litter during the winter months preced- ing the breeding season and the same treatment given to males and females.
