sliip- ped to great britain it has been reported to the on tario marketing board that be tween november 10 and december 9 over one million pounds of can adian turkey meat will have been shipped to great britain in spite of the fact that the tur key meat originated in the western provinces this constitutes good news for the ontario producer in asmuch as local markets will be re lieved to that extent british apple market mr andrew fulton overseas fruit representative in a recent re port states that the prospects for good quality ontario apples in tho united kingdom continue satisfac tory he emphasizes that it is im portant that documents such as certificates of origin and the specifications of the shipment should reach him ahead of the shipments to which they refer also that coun ter marks on each barrel are abso lutely necessary when a shipment consists of more than one car imr fulton observes that the amount of money lost to the shippers through not using counter marks has been tremendous in past years a separ ate bill of lading for each carload would greatly facilitate distribution at u k ports figures furnished by mr fulton reveal that the british market imported 7000949 cwt of apples in 1931 as compared with 4- 000134 cwt in 1921 and 1830 21u cwt in 1901 this reveals the po tentialities ot the british market for absorbing the apple exports of ontario field crops report tho statistics branch has re cently issued its sixth crop report of tho season covering yields of field crops for ontario fall wheat yield per acre is now placed at 2s4 bushels as compared with the pre liminary figure of 301 bushels and tho estimato of oats has been re duced from 335 to 329 bushels per acre the injury done to fall wheat by lodging as revealed by thresh ing operations was greater than at first believed yield of oats was cut down in southern ontario due to unfavorable weather at seeding time and in other sections oats are light in weight due to too much rain and heat while filling total production of both beans and po- tatoes is much under last year the acreage of potatoes was reduced 7 per cent this year but the yield per not to be called uuless such in- is forthcoming prices result acre showed a drastic reduction dry rot has been prevalent many fields showing as high as 50 per cent rot late crops such as sugar beets turnips mangolds corn and buck wheat benefited from favourable growing weather during the fall and yields were very good the li cornborer was worse than for some years hay and clove crops yielded well except in the east where growth was checked by midsummer drought and rains came too late to prevent damage to hay crops but in time for corn and grain pastures are in ex cellont condition and livestock is go ing into the stables in good condi tion farmers generally sowed- fall wheat later this year to avoid the danger of hessian fly though having less top than last year it is very healthy and goes into the winter in good shape price re ceived for crops are generally less than a year ago although potatoes and beans are above last year the total value of the chief field crops was 114073408 for 1932 as com- pared with 125221100 for 1931 i in a land of plenty a land of burst ing levators and overstocked ware houses we find much unemployment factories idling and an impoverished agriculture the gross annual re venue of canadian farmers dropped by at least one billion dollars in the last four years farmers debts re mained fixed in terms of dollars which means that farmers must sell from two to throe times as much pro duce now to pay their indebtedness as was tho case three years ago their cost of living and production has fallen but slightly the contin uance of such conditions will drive the agricultural industry into bank ruptcy and canadians into as yet unknown suffering the lack of farm purchasing power is the direct cause of business stagnation the rising tide i of unemployment and the huge de- ificits of
