PAGE TWELVE SUMMARY GIVEN CROP CONDITIONS In Varlous Counties In Prov- #7 ince of Ontario Brant----Fall Wheat is making a tonsiderable growth . and appear- ances of these fields that were left are very good, The very favorable weather of the past week has brought alfalfa and clover along very well. Seeding has been completed with possible exception of buckwheat and what may be sown as catch crops. Considerable growth has taken place during the wéek. Plants ing of potatoes and roots has been progressing steadily all week. Pre. paration of land for corn is golng on and seed corn purchases would indicate usual amount being plant- ed. In spite of cold weather there appears to be very satisfactory growth and while warmer weather is badly needed, conditions appear fairly satisfactory. There have been fairly heavy frosts during the week but no reports of any serious dam- age so far, Bruce--Spring grains are prac- tically all seeded with the major. La ity of fields being well through the ground and showing a very uniform stand. Crop conditions are fairly satis. factory for this time of year. Spring grain has germinated well thougn fall wheat and clover will natur«|good ally be somewhat patchy. With satisfactory growing conditions from now on prospects should be good for a reasonably bountiful harvest. . Carleton--In some of the town- ships about half of the seding is done while in other sections around 75 per cent is seeded, A greater part of the potatoes have been planted on the drier land and corn land is being worked up in most sections of the County. Dufferin--The alfalfa and clover crops were injured to somewhat greater extent than was first rea- lized. In some districts these crops have been thinned out cone siderably by the unfavorable wea- ther of a few weeks ago, during late April and early May. Seeding has been practically all completed at this date, More mixe ed grain has been sown than usual, in fact, when making the drill sur. vey, practicallly 60 per cent were sowing mixed grain, Alfalfa is being sown very generally in the mixture, Durham---Better stands of alfal- fa and hay are noted following fa- vorable weather, Several large fruit growers have applied the pink Cod Liver Meal Cod Liver On No Wonder Baby Chicks Thrive on Quaker FUL-O-PEP CHICK STARTER The pure, fresh oatmeal of Quaker Ful-O- Pep Chick Starter is just the thing for the tender digestive tracts of baby chicks, And authoritative tests prove OATMEAL more digestible (96%, available) than any other grain product!

It has been moted in visiting several large orchards that there is a heavy blow on Mcintosh and Greening, good vu Spy, Russett and Ben Davis, while in some orchards Baldwins and Starks are fair, others both Bald- wins and Starks are light. Essex--Owing to the cool season tobacco plants are reported to be backward. This is particularly true of those under cotton. Those grown under glass are reported (o be do- ing somewhat better, This is going to keep tobacco planting back a lit- tle, particularly the Burley and Dark tobaccos. A visit to the Un- jon and Leamingon Districts this morning shows the Warne tobacco men quite busy planting. Most of the growers for the Flue Cured market have grown their tobacco under glass, Fields of rye have been noted fully headed out. Quite a bit of corn has been planted the past week. Frontenac--Growth has been very slow and it is expected that Al- falfa will be from 10 days to two weeks late in cutting, There has been very little of it plowed up, although a few fields are thin in spots. Grain is coming on nicely, although growth is a trifle spind- ly. Seeding of grain is complet- ed, Grenville--S8eeding is still delay- ed and not more than 50 per cent of the crop is in the ground, Halton--Fall wheat is growing splendidly, that is, where wheat survived the severe winter and spring, Alfalfa and clover--Very few good solid stands are noticed but the plants that have survived are growing fast, Tent caterpil- lars are very bad and many farm- ers are spraying their apple trees simply fo protect them from this pest, ' Hastings--Alfalfa has made good growth and looks very prom- ising for a good crop this year, The old seeding was killed out rather more heavily than the new seeding. Spring seeding is practically fin- ished, Huron--Growth has been very good, Alfalfa fields look fine. Many sweet clover fields have had to be broken up, Generally speak- ing conditions are very satisfactory. There has been ample time and splendid weather to complete spring work, A little more warmth is desired to induce growth, Kent--Weather conditions have been favorable for nearly all crops, Fall wheat, spring grains and clo- vers are making rapid growth. There was rather a heavy frost two nights which naturally retarded the growth of early tomatoes set out, The blocking of sugar beets has already commenced, Corn planting is general, The majority still feel that there is danger of the borer and are holding off until the latter part of May. Individual plantings of as large as 20 acres have been reported, The clean-up according to the inspector, is a great improvement over last year. The transplanting of tobacco from the beds has just commenced. Pre. parations are being made for a large bean acreage this year. In- flated prices of heans this spring accompanied by the winter killing of wheat has stimulated an in- crease in the acreage of this crop. Lambton--The recent rains have made a wonderful change in the appearance of the country, Fall wheat will only be a third crop but has improved in appearance. Alfalfa and clover are very much improved and promise well, Or- chard bloom is rather disappoint- ing in this county, Not more than 75 per cent of the trees are show- ing blossoms. Spies in some or- chards are showing up well but on the whole the bloom is fair to light. Lanark--Fall wheat is going ahead fast. Clover and alfalfa are rather spotty crops. Some level clay fields are as high as 90 -per cent winter killed, other higher, drier flelds little or no killing, There are some exceptionally good fields of clover and alfalfa and others completely killed out.

Lennox and Addington--Mead- ows are gradually improving and with the exception of sweet clover, hay pasture promises to give fairly good returns, Farm conditions have changed considerably with the past few weeks and fine wea- ther, Seeding of spring grain was carried on with practically no delay and conditions for growth were never better, Lincoln--There has been a cun- siderable improvement in the growth of fall wheat during the past week following the rain a week ago. Alfalfa, red clover aud also other clovers are making very rapid growth and the hay promises to be a fairly good one, Apple or- chards are showing bloom at the present time and indieations are that there will not be as many ap- ples in the Niagara district as last year, especially on varieties sucj as Baldwin and Spy. Greenings as a rule are fairly well loaded with blossoms, There is qiute a large acreage of raspberries badly winter killed and strawberries, while thin, are making a good normal growth, The seeding has really been com- pleted this week with the exception of a few low spots which are like- ly to he seeded with millet or buck. wheat, Karly potatoes are showing through the ground and promise to be a good even crop. A few lignt frosts at night have been experi- enced but it is not expected that any material damage will be gone to fruit bloom or to early veget- ables in general. There has been a large planting of tomatoes to date, Muskoka and Parry Sound--On sandy and loamy soils that are well drained, clover and new seeding is coming through the winter in ex- cellent condition, and 'looks very promising. On the lower and flat- ter lands, however, there has been very considerable winter killing. In some cases I would estimate that fully 25 per cent of the plants are dead or injured, In many cases, however, there appears to be a fair stand of new growth starting so that with favorable weather the hay crop should be a fair stand, Spring seeding is getting well cleaned up, though there is copsid. erable low land and late plowing to be done yet. Many farmers are busy getting their root and potato land ready, Northumrberland--The condition of fall wheat continues to improve. Growth has been very rapid of all sorts of crops during the past week, Orchards are continuing to show promise of a good average bloom and some of the early or- chards are now in full bloom, while some are just ready for the pink spray. General seeding conditions are that farmers have made good progress in their seeding operations this week and the major portions of the spring grains are now sown, Ontario--Some good fields of fall wheat are to he seen througa- out the county, although consider. able patching with other grains has been done, especially in low spots. 8 { Spring sown crops wera put in the sidearms, CHAPLAIN, HON.

A large part of the potatoes in the { {county have been planted and some root fields are sown. Prescott and Russell--Clover flelds and meadows have been growing very nicely during this last week of continuous rain. Seeding operations have been totally stop- [ped during the last eight days of rainy weather. Renfrew--Where winter killing '{took place alfalfa yields of 3 to 4 vears standing suffered more than the new seeding. The early sown grain has grown very rapidly-- about 60 per cent of the seeding in the county is finished. North Simcoe--Where not killed out, fall wheat and clovers made very rapid growth last week but are not doing so well at the present time owing to cold weather. In some districts the distinct shortage of seed barley was reported, owing, largely, to the quantity needed to re-seed wheat and clover which was either a complete or partial fail- re. Welland--Fruit men report a very heavy showing of bloom in pears, sweet and sour cherries, plums and apples. With favorable weather there should be an excel- lent set of fruit, Strawberries have made a scanty growth and we ex- pect a light crop. ,JTJWENTY PASSENGERS IMPRISONED IN CAR , London, Ont.
