Honey Crop In l94J.

The 1 3 honey crop is tentatively estimated by the ominion Bureau of Statistics at 32.5 million pounds——one of the best on record. It unseeded the 1942 crop of 24.1 million pounds

,.,8.4 milli0u pounds or 35 per cent. Although

e ‘was s. slight decline iri the number of pro- ducing colonies this year the average yield was 78 pounds per colony as compared with only 56 pounds in 1942 and the long-term average yield of 70 pounds. About :8 millions pounds, or 87 par cent of the crop was light honey.

One-third of the total Canadian crop was pro- duced in Ontario where production is estimated at 12 million pounds as compared with the short crop of 7.8 million pounds in the previous year. Production in the Prairie Provinces totalled a- bout I4 million pounds, which is considerably in excess of the 10.6 million pounds produced in I942. A good crop of 3ppf0S(llll1ll(‘l_\’ five mil- lion pounds of honey was extracted in Quebec. Production in British Columbia was estimated u 1.3 million pounds, which is slightly less than be amount produced in 1942. Production in the Maritime Provinces was less than in the previous year.

About 50 per centof the crop had already been marketed when retail sales of honey were suspended by government order prior to the in- troduct-lon- of coupon rationing for this com- modify effective September 2. Prior to that date the greater proportion of sales had been made direct to the consumer with very little honey mowing through normal trade channels.

On several occasions during the year of 1942, appeals were made

The re- sponse was not satisfactory, ln fact such appeals seemed only to adver. tlse the commodity we were asked to refrain from using. and con- sumption was thereof Increased- probably a modern indication of the attitude of human beings to- wards "forbidden fruit”. and that fundamentally we have not chang- ed much with the passing of the years. Black markets developed ln various parts of the country. and desirable distribution was serious- ly interrupted and impeded. Even in our own Province its demoraliz- ing influence was felt, and for a time threatened to overthrow all organized effort of production and distribution. Again it became im- pressively evldent that more au- thorltatiye potion was necessary if officially planned export. Dollcles were nognto be thwarted, and as a result. fixed quotas for domestic consumption were determined. op- eration of slaughtering centres re. strlcted in number, and an alto- gether more effective system of over all supervision inaugurated.
