Good Season For

Th6 Field Crops

Conditions Thrgi-g-‘hout Year Re- sulted In Satisfactory. Yields. Statistics Given.

A vol‘! satisfactory season for the growth of field mops is re- ported by Mr. J. W. Boulter. Depu- ty Minister of Agriculture, who con- tribuicd the article below, and sup- plied statistics on yield sndprices of the various commodities.

‘The grain crop for 1032 was ex- ceptionally good, states Mr. Bolli- ter, “and a crop was never harvest ed in better condition. Wheat show- ed a slight decrease in acreage but the yield was sufficiently heavy to offset the loss from reduced acre- age, while the quality was much better than in 1931. Oats were of good quality and the yield in many areas was much above the average. The shipments of grain from thc province during the fall of 1932 were much in excess of ‘shipments during the same period for a num- ber of years previous.

Barley

“Iilero was a kccll inlet-est cle- veloped in the growing of barley. This was occasioned by the excell- ent reports given on the analysfis of Charlottetown No. 80 Barley for melting purposes and a. market may yet be developed for our barley which is outstanding in its analysis- Oniy in fcw places is Barley grown that shows as low a percentage 0f nitrogen.

Mixed Grains

The area sown to Mixed Grains gave a large quantity of fccd vised entirely on the farms. The hay crop for 1932 gave an average Yleld of hay of good quality. Pastura were exceptionally good throughout the entire season and due to the mildness of the fall stock was stabled later than usual and went

dition.

Potatoes

'l‘hero was a very large decrease in the acreage of Potatoes estmated at least 25 per cent below i931 with a yield from 30 per cent in t0 per cent below. The weather during (11881!!! was warm and dry and the potatoes were stored clean and showed very little evidence of rot. The price in the early part of the season was very low but still bet- ter thsn in 1931 while during No- vember thc price averaged high.

Turnip;

"The turnip crop was not quite up to that of other years in yield but there is 1m evidence of brown- heart and there has been a steady market throughout the entire sea- son with prices ranging from 10c to 20c a. bushel. The average, how- ever, would not run over 12c.

In this hectic struggle Fred Shan- non's strategy from the bench brought his troops to victory. The "Kid Lille" of Hyndmnn, McMillan and Chandler kept boring in on thc sieve-like defence of Birtwlstlc and Robin and but for the fine goal tending of Hornby, the score would have read much greater.

The line of Gaudct, McLean and Gaudet had difficulty in piercing the fine defensive tactics of Peakc ' and Foster who were brilliant at all times, being magnificently backed up by Stonewall Don McMillan,

These teams intend to meet again in.the near future and thc struggle will be looked forward to with in. terest.

In the case of smelts received from the Magdalen Islands they are repacked and re-iced at Pictou, 120,000 pounds of smelts were handled through Pictou, which is the clearing house for fishermen from the north shore of Nova Scotia and the Magdalen Islands, during the month of No- vember according to the Natural Resources Department of the Can- adian National Railways.

APPLETON, Wis., Dec. 30.-—An Indian squaw trod the snow-packed trails of the Northern Wisconsin Oneida Indian camps today raising destitute trlbesmen in mutiny against wlzencd Chief William Skenandore.

Skenandole, self-appointed spokes- man of the once mighty tribe, for years has led the Oneldas in a. fight against a government land settle- ment.

In arguing over prosecution of this lawsuit, which involves $1,000,- 000, the squaw, Mrs, Elects. Metox- en, is calling on the braves of the tribe to repudiate the wily leader.

She claimed the chief's suit had been "bleeding the Indians" and said 300 residents o fthe rudc, scat- tered shacks in which the Indians make their homes have signed a petition against Skenandorc.

Skcnandores suit contends tllc government agreed the Indians were no tto be taxed for their land when the reservation was broken up. He

urged Indians to refuse to pay tax-i

es pending outcome of thc case

Many did so and wcrc evicted frorri

their fanns.

_ Mrs. Metoxen wishes the fight

dropped before mounting legal cos and additional evictions incrcasiq

suffering among the already im

poverished trlbesmen.

CERTAIN T0 SEND ream T0 ENGLAND

NEW YORK. Dec. 30.-The Unit- ed States Professional Golfers‘ As-

‘ sociatlon has the money and already

is considering the men for the Ryder Cup golf matches ilrEng- land next June. said George R. Jacobs, association president, today in dispelling any doubt as to whet- her the international golf classic would be held this year.

"As early as last November,‘ Ja- l cobus said, "we advised the English authorities we would send a full team over to ploy the matches and we would have $10,000 in the treas- ury, ‘earmarked’ for that specific purpose.

"All this talk that economic dif- ficulties might cut down the size of the team or that we were selling ' golf balls to raise thc money is just so much ‘baloney.’ We're going to send a team of eight men, an alter- nate, and a manager."

No team, tentative or otherwise has been selected as yet, Jacobus said, and the final selections will not be announced until late in Feb- ruary. ‘The early wurnaments have shown no definite trend as yet, he said, and if some youngster should come along to "burn up" the late Winter and Spring events, the lists will stay open to allow ills inclu- sion.

The team which will be sent over will play the Rydcr Cup matches at Southport, June 28, 27 and then compete in the British open cham- pionship beginning July 3. where Gene Sarazcn will defend thc title he won last year.

Hc was so enhanced with the beauties alld attractions of the Maritimes that when he got back to Australia he persuaded the tour party to sce the Maritimcs. The newspaper rnun in
