benson dixie a few fields of potatoes in ontario county have been affected by the late blight but it is a little too early to state definitely just how many po tatoes will ibe ruined by this blight according to f m campbell of ux- bridge agricultural representative for ontario county since this as the name suggests is a blight which hits the late potatoes rather than the early ones it lemains to beseen just how many fields are affected befoie the potatoes are dug up for the win ter mr campbell said he is unable to predict whether there will be a potato shortage this winter there is a good crop in this county now and he said as far as the crop stands right here it looks like a good crop but he pointed out the supply of potatoes will depend on how other parts of the province are affected by the blight any of these growers who have been applying bordeau mixture gen erously to the crop have protected it against the late blight mr camp bell warned the farmers and victory garden owners quite a number of farmers in the uxbridge area have been dusting potatoes with copper lime dust and this has proven effec tive in the control of the late blight the agricultural representative said there are a few fields in the county which have been hit by the blight with his red but it is not as prevalent here as in other parts of the province mrcamp- ibell said if this destroyer of pota toes can be kept under control the outlook for a good potato crop is promising using syfays and dusts will prevent the spread of the blight goodwood girl visits parlia hill the following is part of a
