Brintnell. They spent a few days
at the Century of Progress in Chi

crops in the vicinity iof Moose Jaw
will again be a failure this year and
that many families will be on relief.
The early prospects for a crop were
good as there was more .moisture
than usual in the spring. JThe .grass
hoppers, however, have wrought con
siderable destruction and when they
settle down on a field they will clesin
it as bare as the noad.
