In the Dept. of Agriculture ands Food's weekly crop report, Don S. Pullen, Huron County agricultural representative, reported that the general area of greatest crop damage in last Thursday's Exeter district rain and hail storm was from the 4th concession of Stephen Township east to the 7th concession of Usborne.. Highway 83 and slightly above close to Exeter was the approximate northern boundary and thence almost to the lower border of Usborne in the south. After flying over the affected section last Saturday, Mr. Pullen said crops closest to Exeter were, the most severely damaged with very heavy losses expected in cereals, beans and corn. Depending on weather conditions, corn may recover sufficiently for ensilage purposes. Fortunately, he added, a large percentage of canning pea acreage had already been harvested. Other areas of Huron had some rain during the last week and it should benefit crops, said Mr. Pullen. Some lodging from driving rain occurred east of Seaforth and in the Lucknow district. Most crops in Huron appear to be growing well. Some winter wheat has been swathed. Haying is completed except for a few bales to draw in from some fields. SUMMER FATIGUE Studies of summer heat sickness have shown that as little as five percent loss of salt from the body produces weariness. Heat fatigue follows in three stages: loss of will to work, dizziness, cramps and fainting. It is extremely difficult for anyone in good health to get a dangerous excess of salt. For most people, seasoning with salt, in amounts to suit the taste, results in what may be called a normal intake of salt. NEWS OF HENS/ill Ontario St. Church welcomes minister 41Y g2.
