moisture any damage from Frost since last report will much Alfalfa or Sweet Clover be seeded any damage from Grasshoppers any trouble with cutworms is there much wheat in Farmers hands of 1920 crop what Are general conditions compared with 1920 replies show that the height of wheat is generally very satisfactory for the Manitoba shows a Little the tallest which is to be expected in View of her earlier in All the provinces practically All coarse grains Are a few Points Only reporting 75 to 80 per As May Rains game pretty plentiful towards the end of the it seemed possible that the seeding of Oats might thereby have been but in Only a few isolated in stancs has this been the a few Points report poor germination of Oats and reseeding to Spring moisture the Supply of moisture is generally most Only three Points out of 238 report serious need of a few need and a few say need rain but not suffering at Manitoba has the proud distinction of need lug rain at one Point out of 79 and Saskatchewan three Points out Alberta has the most Points heeding but in Only two places is the need oddly nearly All the Points in Alberta rain Are in the which is a distinct reversal of the usual a number of Points where Drifting was serious last year report no Drifting this there were one or two pretty heavy frosts during the 21 but beyond setting Back Oats and Lor a week or so no damage has occurred Grain but Many Points report Garden stuff and fruit blossoms damaged to some hoppers and cutworms the damage from Grasshoppers so far is practically Noth Many reports state that there of but

to amounts of last years wheat still in Farmers hands Are decidedly but there Are very few Points reporting no wheat Many Points report very that Means or bushels is a conjecture As either amount would be very Small for a at some Points As High As 15 per of the wheat crop is reported As in Farmers the of the would indicate that there is no undue amount still held by Farmers on their Bette than 1920 to the what Are general conditions As compared with 1920 the replies Are most satisfactory in they practically amount to a unanimous vote that conditions Are decidedly better than at the same
