Grisdale, former deputy minister of agriculture, who last year Blade a survey of the British market for Ontario Cheese Patrons' Associa- tion, at the Annual convention in Kingston predicted increa.sed demand and better prices overseas for the Canadian cheddar as result of sharp reduction in the make of the popu- lar British farm cheese. A jjreat deal of milk has been diverted into other channels in England, particu- larly. G. B. Johnson, Canadian trade commissioner at Glasgow, reports, however, a prospect of keener com- petition as result of "the improved quality of heme makes, particularly of Scottish." Writing in the Com- mercial Intelligen'c .lournal, he kdds: "The trading asneemeiit between Canada and the United States nv mean that Scottish merchants will have to pay relatively higher prices, which in turn will restrict sales in this market. So long as Canadian quotations are higher than those of home or New Zealand, the demand will be as in former years." It is to be hoped Mr. Johnson does not contemplate marketing of Ca" adian cheese at the same price as New Zealand. It has long sold at a â- nbstantial premium, due to a pre- ference for it on the part of the public in the United King'iom. And The new Wrigley Spearmint Gum Sign on Times Square, New York City, a million dollar project, larg- est of its kind in the world, was for- mally dedicated and put into opera- tion on Saturday evening, March 28th. The sign occupies the entire block on Bi-oadway from Mth to 45th Street on the east side of Times Square.

W-., Oxford County: "What analysis of fertilizer should I use on strawberries on clay loam soil, heavily manured before p'anting Plants have set fairly good and have good top?" Answer: We assume that the strawberry patch is now standing having been successfully planted last summer. In regard to the matter of applying fertilizer, it would have been better if you had applied ferti- lizer to the ground when preparing it for planting. Many successful strawberry growers get good results by supplementing their heavy manure with two or three bags per acre of such a fertilizer as 4-8-10, working this into the soil along the rows whfere the strawberries are to be planted. Since this was not done in your case, there is good reason to believe that your patch would bene- fit from scattering this fertilizer on the row where stra'.vberries are planted as soon as the strawberries are worked, early in the spring, work- ing this into the ground. Failing this, the application of nitrogen carriers such as nitrate of soda or sulphate of ammonia, at the rate of 100-150 lbs. per acre, In the same way, should give good results. In applying these carriers of nitrogen, be especially careful not to scatter it on the crop while there is dew on the plants or immediately after rain. There is a tendency for it to stick to the leaves and burn them. If appli- ed to the crop when it is dry, this is prevented. Question I (b). "Fertilizer companies guarantee a certain brand of fertilizer as, 1 per cent, water soluble nitrogen, 2 per cent, total nitrogen. Is there any available nitrogen in the 1 per cent, not water soluble ? If so, when will it be available for the plants to use?" Answer: Water soluble nitrogen is certainly available nitrogen in plant growth. If the fertilizer contains 2 per cent, total nitrogen and 1 per cent, water soluble nitrogen, the re- maining 1 per cent, of nitrogen is probably of organic source that must await bacterial action in order that it be readily available or it may be nitrogen in the form not taken up in large quantities by the growing crop, which must be also await bacterial action to change it to nitrate form in which the nitrogen is taken up. One canrrot answer definitely as to when this latter form of nitrogen will be available for plant use, but under normal conditions, of warm spring weather and with the soil in good condition, it certainly should be available during early life of the plant.
