There is still time for tI•issituation to be much relieved, and should an adequate rainfall occur during the next two weeks. a great deal of improvement will be effected. At this time of the year reports .f dry weather air quite usual, and although these reports seen' to be more pro - flounced this year there is *till some likelihood that in •.other month much improvement will have taken [lace.
