Contained within the 3rd Edition (1957) of the Atlas of Canada is a map that shows six compact maps illustrating the distribution of areas seeded in oats, mixed grain, rye, flax for seed, corn for grain, and soybeans for harvesting circa 1951. Therefore, in the case of rye, the areas include those seeded in the fall of 1950 as well as those seeded in the spring of 1951. The term 'mixed grain' includes those grains sown to be harvested as a mixture with oats and barley being the most common combination. The map entitled Flax for Seed may include flax of fibre varieties which were grown for seed. Each map is accompanied by a pie chart showing the percentage distribution of seeded areas by province.
