Reporis Belier Crop Prospects

OTTAWA. July 18 -(GP)-Crop prospects on the Prairie Provinces have shown "marked improvement" as a result of heavy rains over the last week. the Bureau of Statistics reported today in a. periodic sum- mary of crop conditions across Canada.

The Bureau said cool weather. averaging more than five degrees below normal, has prevailed in all three Prairie Provinces during the last week and warm. drier weather now would be welcome in most H193! to promote crop develop merit.

fire Chiefs Asked To Reduce Fire Loss

OTTAWA. July 17 -Mulching sod orchards is essential for main- tenance of good moisture relation ships and for the reduction of com- petition for moisture and nutrients Unfortunately a number of grow- ers lost trees due to flash fires in mulched orchards during the very

hot and dry period oi the past growing season.

While in some instances these fires may have been due to no

fault of the grower. many can be directly traced to carelessness, or to improper management in mulching the orchard. Serious fire.- in orchards which have occurred to date, have been in orchards where dry mulch was applied after 590113 rains and during the hot summer weather when the mulch itself was very dry and ignited readily.

Mulch in sod orchards is essential and its use is strongly recommend- ed It should. however, be applied in the late fall so that it will be thoroughly wetted down and start decomposition before the chance of fire is serious. This is particularly important it dry mulch r is to be used and if the orchards border main highways.

in the majority of orchards it is necessary to use supplementary mulch in order to obtain sufficient depth oi mulch. The texture of the orchard soil and the elimination of fire hazards can both be improved by efficient use of the cuttings of the sod in the orchard. YOUHK im- mature grass is the best: mulch and when grass is cut frequently it

ing hot dry periods. Grass handled in this manner decreases the risk of flash tires as it decomposes more rapidly and at any one time the amount of dry mulch from these cuttings is at a minimum.

Finally, it should be apparent to any grower with a mulched orchard that extreme care should be taken ircm brush fires, matches and cigarettes. particularly during the hot dry periods of the summer months.
