Amounts from two to Well Over three inches Over South Western and Southeastern it the past three Lave charged considerably the Floorn that had settled i m of Western Canada s in Large measure dispelled came too Over the Rains reducing Grasshopper activities to a minimum at a time when Plant life had a Chance to come along. Contrasts perhaps Best show up the change which has taken place in the drought stricken sections. Three weeks ago i completed a tour through Southern and southwestern Manitoba while a. Cases the ram came too and Southeastern Saskatchewan at a thrive he Early sown crop it will time before any rain at All practical of he Arfat St value m making it in had fallen this Spring.

This state of affairs continued up into the firs week of june. Then the Rains came. Cum bark i Lerway this week i have just completed n return trip to these drought if Fecter areas.

Grasshoppers Are still at work and form Lor the time being at least the mos important enemy to be reckoned with. Tie renewed Hope which the Rains brought is being shown in several ways. Of the most important is the Effort being put Forth in the South West of Manitoba and in Southeastern j Saskatchewan to grow crops which will provide feed for livestock. In Manitoba particularly there Are several Hundred aches of Voung Corn at the the 1668. Normal and yields must be reduced accordingly. Wind blown Fields Are reviving remarkably and fair crops May be expected from All but the really blown out portions though the Fields have a ragged appearance. From Deloraine West in fact in the whole Southwest Corner of the province Little life was left in the wheat Fields and in the vast majority of cases Little or no crops Are expected. A few Farmers will save some Grain but the Revenue obtained must of Neces sity be Small. What wheat is left is scattered and thin on the Fields sown since the rain now two to four and will be hard to Harvest. The inches High. Large areas of Oats and same May be said of All Southeastern Barley have also been sown and seed i Saskatchewan which includes Este drills Ore still to be seen planting Van Stoushton Arcola and East to sold with the not too Remote Hope Carlyle after which a gradual in further rain to bring it to the stage where it will Supply fodder. Much pro vement takes place the farther East one goes. Grasshoppers Are still working and the fight to limit the damage done top hat laughingly shouldered his Way through the mob no Good i really meant that. I was t try ing to show off but that boy in the Cricket get up and the father in a plug lid took away the menace. I was t even afraid when a corps of whirling dervishes came whooping out of a. Hut and swung great two j handed swords in menacing curves legislation. Mation either for telegraphs or express. V scores of telegrams were despatched from Winnipeg thursday from officials of the commercial Telegraph ers Union of North America individual Telegraph and express employees of both systems and Grain in protest against the proposed tided swords in menace near my head. Perhaps i was a bit squeamish when they took me before a pile of fresh blood smeared sheep Stulls and 1 was invited to kiss the ground before the King. Anyway i belly Flat to the ground for a minute with those sword swingers standing Over me and instead of thinking Here s trader Horn sin Clair getting himself made a blood brother of wild i thought of i late sown Grain and some of the Early sown also in Southeastern Saskatchewan has germinated since the j by them is being waged with con Africa.

The Mirin concern of formers in this Sec Ion is to grow feed sufficient to carry their work horses and their cattle through the coming Winter.

Manion during closing Days of parliament and any pre Vious warning that such Bill was proposed at present time. State ments of Hon. C. P. Fullerton opposing amalgamation has been interpreted As including Telegraph and express services. In addition to depriving hundreds of Telegraph and express employees of work the Tele graph employees Are of the opinion Little or no saving of Money would be affected and would probably eventually result in. Losses rather Telegraph companies in the Long run through dissatisfied service tendered the Public through non Competition. At the present time business in the Telegraph Industry is booming and it is and has been for years one of the Best paying departments of the railway companies therefore there would seem to be no justifiable reason for the proposed amalgamation at the present. Or any other time.
