are always acceptable, and the addition to the 

 national food supply would be very great if 

 present planting of old potatoes were generally 

 adopted. Whether the public buy new potatoes 

 now or not it is almost certain that growers who 

 depend upon the early market for the remunera- 

 tive iJrices obtained will still lift their crb])s.as 

 in many cases the land thus cleared is wanted 

 immediately for sowing some ' catch cro]) ' whicli 

 in its tvirn heli^s to swell the national food su])ijly. 

 The ijublic cannot be too often reminded that 

 great additions to the food supply can be ensured 

 by sowing in July and August many valuable 

 vegetable crops such as cabbage, carrot, onioia, 

 lettuce, dwarf beans, peas and spinach." 



The Orchard Weahh of Canada. 



The fruit crop report issued this year by the 

 Canadian Departnient of Agriculttire states that 

 basing a forecast upon the set of blossoms in the 

 various fruit districts of Canada, the a|)ple crop 

 will be large except in Southei-n and Western 

 Ontario. Large orchards in Eastern Ortario 

 promise a heavy crop with the exception possibly 

 of " Spies " and " Greenings " in certain 

 localities. The i)rovince of Nova Scotia will 

 probably have a record crop, and if niarketing 

 conditions are satisfactory the growers should 

 have a very successful season. British Columbia 

 reports a normal crop, probably about equal to 

 that harvested a year ago. It is important to 

 bear in mind that many young orchards are 

 coming into bearing in this province, and that the 

 total amount of fruit produced will probably 

 increase yearly for some time. All reports 

 received from the Annapolis Valley have been 

 very oi)timistic. Growers estimate the total 

 crop at 2,000,000 barrels, and possibly a new 

 record will be made.
