two and one half times the price of 1932 it is expected that the market value of the fall wheat pro viding the acreage remains near the total of last year will be between 813000 and 1000000 and the spring wheat market value between 93500 and 100000 crop prices improving other crops have advanced pro portionately to wheat market re ports indicate that the prices which the farmer will receive for root and field crops will he at least double those of the corresponding period one year ago livestock prices which have recently been weaker than grain and vegetable prices are now firming up and an increased income to the breeder seems indicat ed according to the report issued by the ontario department of agricul ture statistics branch for the year strengthening of commodity prices have been an important factor in the world trade depression difficul ty has been experienced not only by the farmers and producers of the county of york in marketing their produce and in securing a decent return for it but it has been gener al throughout the world the report stresses the point that there has been an appreciable strengthening of commidity prices during the past few months the re port also states that if the prices prevailing at the end of april 1933 could be maintained over a 12month period then the farmers would have an increased revenue of 34- 183000 throughout ontario with york county benefiting proportion ately of course if the present level of prices can be maintainedbvor the same period the increased revenue will ho even greater for the york farmers ono other bright spot rovoaled by the report is the tact that the de pressed condition in agriculture so far as prices are concerned have not affected the continuity of agricultural production grains livestock market vegetables fruits etc have maintained a high level of production and in some instances have exceeded thoso of the previous year much cleared laud in york county according to the report of the

ringwood it has been said that it costs noth ing to be polite yet when two stourfville youths were handed a biscuit apiece by a ringwood fellow in the presence of his wife or was it his lady friend on friday night the chaps from town presumed they were of the fair ones baking and not wishing to offend by chucking the handout after they had bitten nto it they showed that heroes are made not born by the way they persevered in masticating it even at tho risk of wearing away all their homegrown teeth never did pair of youths tackle a harder job nor see broader smiles from the gallery when they had finished it wasnt until someone tipped them off that they had successfully ab- ever tackled a dog biscuit and knows started to howl and no one who has ever tackled a dog bisvuit and knows the kind of concrete they are made of but will realize that nothing that wears a tag and gets hydro phobia has more license to howl than those disillusioned youths from stouffville stouffville ladies laws bowling
