Growing
Hops
Increased interest in the growing of hops has been general since 1930 in Eastern Canada and British Columbia, the two principal districts' in which they are grown in Canada. However, the Canadian output has never been sufficient to meet the needs of the country and the deficiency has been supplied by Great Britain, Continents; Europe, and the United States, over 60 per eent, of the imports coming from Europe.
In view of the fact that war
