Symons, Director of the Statistics Branch, Ontario Department of Agricul­ ture. Although a large portion of the hay was spoiled by rain, the quantity harvested shows an in­ crease of 35% over last year. Providing weather conditions are favourable, recent reports from agriculture correspondents would indicate that the grain crop will he well over the 200,000,000 bushel mark of last year and possibly over the 1918 record of 213.356,000 bushels. The production of oats is well above the yearly average, and is about 9% higher than last year. Cape Cod Exposed As Quite Normal Cape Cod, the place we ciate with pilgrims, ships and rugged old salts, to­ day holds such romance only in its history as houses are topped with television aerials and equipped to the standard of modern demands. Cape Cod has been exposed by Misses Isabel Anthony and Glayds Echlin as a place inhabit­ ed by a race of ordinary people with the ordinary ambition to imake the best of what they have, j It is really from outsiders that • any -queer flavour comes accord- ling to the two girls who have just returned from their fifth [visit to the Cape. “There are lots of peculiar looking artists around," the girls explained, “but they are not native to the district.” Ap­ parently, they come in droves for the atmosphere of inspiration and once settled, commence to create the atmosphere them­ selves. Miss Anthony is the daughter of Rev, and Mrs. James An­ thony. Miss Echlin is visiting at their home here.

The harvesting of spring crops is well and if weather conditions remain favourable, the average yield will be higher than in previous years for oats, barley and mixed, grain. Pastures have been excellent all summer, and are still above average. All live stock are in good condition, and milk flow is above normal, although the total production of milk is probably not any higher than last year, due to the reduction in herds during the past twelve months. Late crops, such as dry beans, soybeans, roots and buckwheat School of Commerce average but j for further | . - - - the yield should be quite good, once again depending on the weather con­ ditions. An important item in this lat­ est report is that the harvesting of flue-cured tobacco is well under way and present indica­ tions are that an all-time record will be established with the pro­ duction totalling 122,000,000 lbs.
