It was a good year for coarse grains. The estimates in bushels with the figures for 1937 in brackets follow': oats 371315.000 268,-442n00; barley 102,731.000 83,124,-000; flax 1,358,500 697.6O0; rye 11.115.000 t5.7U.000). Had the prices held up farmers would have been able to smile at the returns their crops brought them. However, the prices have shown sharp declines from a year ago and many farmers have received Jess for larger crops than in 1937. Bureau of Statistics returns show over 1937 while the cheese produc tion will be around 12.000.000 pounds less. It takes approximate pound "of butter Y a pound off cheese. Reports collected by the expert mental farms Indicate the pastures were better in 19J8 than the year before and the open fall made it possible to leave the cattle outdoors later than in many years. In addition, there was an increase in hay production and in fodder corn stored in silos and in many parts of Canada this Is the principal source of food for milch herds during the winter. Roots were also plentiful and were Ted to increase the milk flow In the fall months. It was a big year for tobacco production. Ontario had a crop of 85 000,000 pounds in 1938 compared with 63.000,000 In 1937 and the total production for Canada Is estimated at 96,000,000 as against 72,000,000 the year before.

Prices, however, are substantially higher than a year ago. Official sources say the cause of Uie lower producUon was a blight which caused rot In many parts of the country. Prince Edward Island, with 112 hundred weight per acre this year as compared with 97 hun dred weight last year, and Saskat chewan, which had 65 hundred weight per acre this year and 27 hundred weight last year, were the only provinces where the 1933 crops were above the year before In potatoes.
