Prospects for crops in Western can Ada and late Field work in the East because of unsettled weather were reported by the Dominion Bureau of statistics yesterday in the first of a series of crop reports on do minion wide conditions. While rain is urgently needed in Northern Manitoba and Central and Northern Saskatchewan prospects Are generally very favourable in Southern Manitoba in Southern and Western Saskatchewan and Over most of Alberta. British Columbia s season is Well advanced with Ideal weather for Field crops and Small fruits. Warm weather prevailed the past week in Manitoba. Saskatchewan and Southern Alberta. Precipitation Over the Prairies was scattered with Southern and West Central Saskatchewan and Alberta receiving beneficial Rains. In parts of Central and Northern Manitoba and in Central and Northern Saskatchewan the crop Lias germinated and is showing above ground but soil moisture conditions Are deficient and considerable damage will re sult unless moisture is soon received. Seeding completed seeding has been completed in Manitoba while in Saskatchewan about 10 per cent of the coarse Grain crops remains to be put in the ground. In Alberta wheat seeding will be finished tills week. From 20 to 25 per cent of the coarse grains Are still to be sown. Fall Rye in Southern Manitoba is in the shot Blade. Grasshoppers have been hatching at Many Points Over the Southern part of the Prairies but control measures Are being taken. Little damage has been re ported from cutworms. Pasture conditions in Northern Manitoba and Central and Northern Saskatchewan Are below the average. Unsettled weather in Eastern Canada through May has delayed Spring Field work. Clearing Wea ther within the past 10 Days How Ever has accelerated seeding and the growth of crops and pastures. Hay and Clover Meadows and Pas Tures in the maritime provinces and Quebec came through the Winter in exceptionally Good condition. Ontario experienced unusually heavy rainfall during May. Field crops have an abundance of sub soil moisture and Are now making rapid Progress. Northern Ontario districts however Are very late.

Hiver Dolphin Kun Issei Virden by Inion a j rail j 50 50 .03 of i h to 254g Here s an interesting letter from a Winnipeg Ady formerly of England. Asking please not 1o use lick name but saying she reads this column every night avidly except when Jou discourse on politics 1 your Chat about writes my English correspondent combined with your recent roused me to such a pitch of nostalgia that f now take my in the first place i am not a woman of Kent nor a Kentish woman but am from the county that lies due North above the thames the Best county in England. I might hear later from a Man of Kent on that Point but i once Kent in the Early proceeds my correspond ent and the memory of it is As vivid As the Hue of its Young Green grass. Friends drove us for Miles along the Lovely Kentish coast the Way lined with hop Fields when turned Inland and Cherry Orchards that were also pastures for ssi Cep. The Trees were not yet blossoming but the grass underneath was a Hite with incredible numbers of Long legged White faced woolly lambs looking As your colleague Francis Stevens once said As though they had just been washed in soap flakes. Most enchanting of All was the Walt. Disney ish Way they sprang up in the air and tambolled around their sad faced mothers. Part of he Way we drove by a High Stone Vail which we were told ran for so Miles around a private estate. This must be one of those mentioned by your correspondent. Driving through a tall Leafy Avenue of Trees we came to a Wood where we got out of the car just to stand and look at the most marvellous display of primroses i have Ever seen. There were so Many of them that without exaggeration they Cov a Rcd the Woodland Glade As far As the Eye could see like a Golden carpet ill cd even spilled out through the hedgerow to grow in abundance in the ditch. If you have never seen wild primroses you cannot imagine the Beauty of the scene. I can never forget it. And it is the thought of Hitler and his minions despoiling scenes like these that makes All honest English men seethe. But i must t forget my beloved Essex which though flatter than Kent is positively mountainous when compared to Manitoba. And when i come to Essex. I come to gulls hundreds of them. The proper place to enjoy them is to see them on the Essex coast preferably from the Cliffs around Clacton on sea just lately in the the Best time is to get up before breakfast and. Well wrapped in Mackintosh Brave the wind a nor easter usually j. With a hint of rain the Salty Tang of the Good old North sea in it. And watch the gulls Wheeling and crying above the dashing Waves. Or go Inland about nine Miles where my Home is name deleted in ease Hitler sees it. But a military town of importance since before the and take a walk through the newly ploughed Fields. If the crows Are following the plow or clustered along the furrows the country Folk will Tell you solemnly that it is bad weather at sea. Of to Essex concludes the writer.
