This rellort states that the total area this year under root and fodder crops, ln- cludinl Potatoes. turnips. etc., hay Mid 0|°V¢l‘. alfalfa and fodder corn, in all Canada. amounted to 1z.s21,- 851 acres, as compared with 9,576,. 568 acres in 1917. The yield fn roots in the'Domlnion is placed at 120.. 767,000 bushels, compared with 63,- 451,000 last year, and most of these roots are raised in Ontario. Hay and clover is said to have given the larg. est crop on record-14,695,000 tons for all Canada, which seems to jus- tify the statement that ruling prices for hay are altogether too high. Corn has done well in Ontario and, in this province, at least. thc returns In 005110 Brains have been eminently satisfactory. ln addition to this t.he Feed Divi- sion of the Live Stock Branch of the Dominion Department of Agriculture has secured a reserve of recleaned elevator screenings. upon which there is an export embargo in this country, and which are being sold at n fixed price of $36 per ton bulk carload lots at Fort. William. Freight will be added to this amount accord- ing to the distance from the distri- buting point. The Government has also secured a reserve of feed corn which is be- ing held at Tidln, Ont.

F'a\'mers and live stock men are advised to form co-operative groups to purchase carload lots of Govern- ment, feed or feed from the regular trade, without deluy, so as to avoid didlculty and delay incidental ro winter transportation. Government feed will be supplied upon applica- tion to the food division, live stock branch. Department of Agriculture, Ottawa. Bran and shorts, upon which there has been no basic ad- vance upon the prices dxed some months ago, are handled by the regu- lar trade, and not by the feed divi- sion. From information as to live stock deflcionccy in Europe. the Canada Food Board urges that no live stock he marketed unfll it is finished. as there will be a steady demand for meat and breeding stock from Eu- rope with the re-establishment of normal communication and the ra- lease of ships from war services. A Remarkable Helfor. Colony Aggie Pieterie, of Colony Farm. B.C., that recently completed it strictly odlcial year's record of 21,161.8 lbs. milk and 881.84 lbs. butter as a junior two-year-old, ‘s tho only one two-year-old heifer in Canada with a strictly oillcial yearly record above 20,000 lbs. of milk and 800 lbs. butter; the Canadian cham- pion Junior two-year-old for the pro- duction of either milk or butter in one year, and the world°s champion Junior two-year-old in omcial tmt for one year. - The heifer freahened in pasture on the 15th of October, 1917, at the age of 2 years, 1 month, 15 days. Sho was started on test on the 31st of that month with tho intention of making a seven and thirty-day re- cord. So steadily did she increase her daily production that it was not until the week from Dec. 20 to A._lsn. 4, inclusive, that she reached her maximum production, making ln that period 508.7 lbs. milk. 22.82 lbs. but- ter. Her highest month's production was during the period from Dec. 25 to Jan. 24, when sho produced 2,119.1 lbs. milk, 92.94 lbs. butter. lt will be observed from these figures that it was not until the third month after ealving that she really got her pacs. and reached her maximum for production. Her highest day's pro- duction, on Jan. 2. was 81.6 lbs. milk, containing 2.98 lbs. fat, equal to 3.75 lbs. butter. So steadily did she continue to work that on the 364th day of her record she produc- ed 54.7 lbs. milk, 2.5 lbs. butter. Sheep ln' Demand ln Saskatchewan. The Live Stock Branch of Sas- kufchewan Department of Agricul- ture has \>sen__s_eiiing__a__oonsidenbie number of sheep to Saskatchewan farmers during recent weeks, indicat- ing an increasing recognition of the fact that these animals are in many respects the most profitable that they can keep.gln addition to the Ram- boullet rams secured by Prof. Shaw in the Western States, all of which have been sold, a fairly large num- ber of pure-bred rams of other breeds have been placed. and also a total of 1.250 ewes. Of the latter. the dis- tribuiiou has been suite wide. as is indicated by the fact that only one large sale. of 100 head to a farmer near Langham, was made, and the remaining 1,150 were distributed amonlet thirty-nine buyers.

Sugar beet. raising, combined with the keeping of live stock. is claimed to provide a ilrst-rate means of build-' ins up a farming district; the feeding value of the beet pulp and tops pro- viding ln large measure for the late fall and early winter feeding of the farm cattle, and at the same time, for the restoring of fertility to the soil, while the rootathemselves pro- vide a most satisfactory cash crop wherever labor is procnrable at a- reanonable price. Thp thorough and deep cultivation necessary for the successful production' of sugar beets, which could not be afforded in the case of crops of less money value, as- sures a splendid condition of the soil for other cropsin the mixed or stock l farm rotation. while t.he extra labor needed in beet cultivation on a small scale, can be employed at other sen- sons, to a considerable extent, where cattle are fed for milk or beef. or other live stock raised for the mur- ket, as largely as possible. During tho past year sugar bcei growing has extended considerably on account of the keen demand for augur to take the place of tho nor- mal import supply, held up by thc existing ocean shipping conditions. Most .of the undertakings in flu- growing line have, however, been on a large scale and the live stock rais- ing possibilities in connection with the industry do not seem to have been greatly considered. With thc increase in the labor supply, such as can be expected as u result of peace conditions, a general return to more intensive farm practice may he look- ed for; and with the resulting gen- eral improvement in the condition ol farms in many districts, as regards their fertility, the advisabiiity of in- cluding sugar beets in the rotation of the stock farm should be given consideration. Southern Alberta is indicated as n successful sugar beet raising section, the area suited to such production bei lar er than an two of the E'||i tim the has for it a der cou of cou Oni cha zoo enz ity. cop has ew lowed suitu ences numbers of horses in commercial tacks apparently make old horses less sur.- demic l!as,l1‘oiiovved idvery Mod- orn War and ls Gtmrdesl Against.

The only drawback to the imme- diate extension of the industry in Alberta is the lack of labor. Condi- tions of soil and climate in that pro- vince are said to be ideal, but al- most. if not exactly similar -conditions could befouud in other provinces oi' the Dominion, while, in’ Ontario par- ticularly, tho labor problem could be more easily solved. Besides, stock raising as a farm undertaking, is an lndustry sufficiently developed in On- tario to present a very good oppor- tunity for combining the growing of sugar beets with the raising of cattle. -_.__...______ What Em~ope's Shortage ls. The latest report on the shortage of live stock in Europe was presented by Mr. H. B. Thomson. chairman of the Canada Food Board, at the Live Stock Conference held recently at .0ttawa. Mr. Thomson gave the con- vention dgures just received from the Flood Administration in London as .to the latest oillcial estimates of the live stock ° deficiency in those countries of Europe in which it has- besn polible to prepare reports. Including' Great Britain. France, Italy. Denmark, Sweden, Holland and Germany the total dedcit is: Cattle. 6,506,000: sheep. 5.430.600. and pigs, 35,810,200. , For Austria-Hungary no figures ure available, but the shortage is estimated as extremely serious. in Britain there is a shortage of 25 per cent. in hogs, and in England and Wales sheep one year of agc and over have decreased by 11.3 per cent. in the present year, and in Scot- land there has been a decrease of 11.0 per sent. Poultry ln Storage. I 'I‘he poultry markets are still nn- satisfactory. Receipts while not larger than other years on record. are more than the packets can com- fortably take oare of. Experienced dressers are dlilicult to get, and stor- uge space il scarce. The result is prices quoted recently are materially lower than those offered for some time. Stocks of poultry in storage now are larger than at the same date n year ago. -_--.__.._._._.____ Illw Material. Prof. iidovoy, in his "Economies of Business," says: “ln ordor_that there may he production, it is neces- sary that raw materials be gathered from the earth and in agriculture that an area of ground be fertilized. and that tools, organisation and a favorable environment be secured. These are the necessities of produc- tion. But the human factories are still to be emciently applied." High Prices for Breeding Shoop. Record prices have been associat- ed with most. breeds of sheep in Eng- land. The Romney Marsh has estab- lished a sal! yard record of 1,000 guineas for a ram: the Lincoln has obtained 100 fulness for 1 ram: the Suffolk rant record price has been jumped to 300 guineaa; and Cheviots have gone to |800 and £205 apiece, while Blackfaosa have made £396. $80,000 Monthly on Irrigation.
