May a-—The Dominion bureau of Ststistlos today reported an increase of almost 1,000,000 acres in the area farmers will cow to grain this year if they carry out their present intentions. The increase, about three per cent over last year's area. is confined almost entirely to Saskatchewan and A1- berts The Bureau, issuing its first crop report of the season, said the in- tended area for spring wheat is 24,354,000 acres compared with 23.- 560,000 last year and 26,646,100 acres in the peak year. 1932. The total increase would be 103,400 acres. It added the intended acresges of cats and spring rye show little change from the 1935 figures. Bar. ley, however, indicates an increase of 168,000 acres or about four per cent While flaxseed will be up 22,- 400 acres, or 10 per cent. The intended acreage of mixed grain, it said, is 1,145,500 acres this year. about one per cent less than last year. The report said in part: Condition of hay and clover meadows at April 30, 1930, was Placed st 90 compared with 92 a. Year ago. Every province in Can- ada, except New Brunswick, show- ed an improvement and the Do- minlon average is the highest. since 1929 Seeding of spring grains is even later than in 1935. Throughout the Dominion, cold and wet. weather was experienced during most of April and. as ll. result, the thawing and drying (-2 the soil took much longer than usual. Winter-killing of meadows and pastures and of fall- sown crops was less than usual. In the Maritime Provinces and Eastern Quebec. meadows and pastures came through the winter in satisfactory condition and should respond rapidly to warm weather, Increased acreages, particularly of potatoes. are planned in the Mar- itime Provinces. In the western counties of Quebec and over most. of Ontario, there was little growth and no p:ssirbillty of work on the land whllecolri, wet weather per- smted during the first three weeks of April. In the last week of the month, however, under better weather conditions, pastures began to turn green and well-drained farms were soon ready to work. Germinatlng conditions for spring- sown crops are considered very fa.- ivorable. I Almost generally throughout.

The former. like the Rose of England. the Thistle of Scotland. the shamrock of Ireland and many of the older national emblems became established with- out official enactment or public pl amatlon. The Trailing Arbutus or Mayflower of Nova Bcotis, the Anamone patiens oi Manitoba. and the wild Rose of Alberta have been made ofiicial by provincial legis- lation and a. bill, already prepared to ‘give official standing to the Trillium for Ontario, will it is ex- pected be enacted by the Ontario Lltlzglslature during the praent sit- t g. National flowers have in certain countries a. peculalr significance or are symbollcal of the characteris- tics or feelings of the nations. In many cases, as in our provinces and in the United states. the chosen flower has been adopted by legisla- tion. In other cases as in several European countries, in Egypt, India and Japan it has by its association with poetry, religious ceremonies or popular sentiment of the people. gradually became universally recog- nized as the nation's symbol. In connection with each of these there is an interesting story, says the Montreal star. The Maple Lee! The Canadian emblem more than D. century ago was regarded as highly symbolic-a.l of the Canadian people. This was indicated at a banquet of the Saint-Jean-Baptiste Society held in this city on June 24, 1836. The banqueting hall was pro- fusely decorated with branches and leaves oi the Sugar Maple and the main speaker Dcnls- Benjamin vlger spoke eloquently oi the vir- tues of the Maple tree which was highly praised for its sturdiness in the forest, the substantial character of its wood for fuel and lumber and its great service to the pioneer in its annual harvest of syrup and sugar. The sentiments expressed by the speaker were undoubtedly popular in those early days of Candlan life. The Trailing Arbutus, made the ciflclal emblem for Nova. Scotia in 1901, was highly regarded as early as 1825 when the flower was repres- ented in a. decoration that appeared on the front page of “The Nova Scotlan." Thirty years later it was associated with the rose, the thistle and the shamrock on postage stamps. This flower is also the State Flower of Mossacusetts where it is better known as the Mayflower. There its name was associated with the Pilgrim Fathers who. at the end Seeding 31111 EH11)’ E1‘0'Wih.

The Manitoba embtem. the Ane- mone pstiens, chosen by the pro- vincial Horticultural nsaciety was made official in 1902. Also known as the wlndfiower and Pasque flower it is the state flower oi South Dakota. School Children's Choice Alberta's emblem, The Wild Rose. is also that state flower of North Dakota, Iowa. New York and Georgia. Following a suggestion by the editor of an Edmonton news- paper that the province or Alberta should have a floral emblem. the Women's Institute took the matter up, and passed it on to the Depart- ment of Education. The choice of the native rose was made by the school children of the province. 0ntnrlo‘s choice, the Trillium grandifiorurn also called the Wake- robln, was accepted by the Ontario Horticultural Association in 1935 after it had been recommended hi‘ a committee of botanists who can- vassed the views of the Horticul- tural societies of the provllwe. 85 well as the high schools and col- legliate institutes.
