Anything that Jad been put in on other cultivation than fallow or Sweet Clover Sod was bad with wild Oats but they were the Only weeds much in evidence though of Loraine is still worrying Over the sow Thisbe and rightly so. Yet the improvement in this respect from three or four years ago is very marked. From Deloralee worked East along she Highway to Whitewater and then South to Mountainside and East to Waskada and and North into bolts Caln finding conditions much the same. The farther South you worked the better the general con along the High Way bolts Evan to Ninga saw Little worked South to Desford where there is a badly hailed strip not apparently a very Large one but the destruction is pretty Complete. A Little feed can be got off some of the Fields but others Are just1 being slowed Down. Heard there was an Hills and crops Are term latent.

Neelin Here the infection was quite serious the head stems being badly rusted. How far this condition extends West i Don t know but working through the Hills North and East to Gle Imra lost it. Entirely and might almost say lost the crop too a they grew steadily Shorter and thinner and from Glenora they Are pitifully poor and Many Are be ing laughed Down without any at tempt to take anything off the Fields while in other Fields Stock has been turned into get what they can. On. The Uplands this condition continued and even working Down through the Hills again a few Miles from the East end of Rock Lake crops Are very poor. On the Bottom lands crossed in this part at Tho trip i found no rust.
