Spring grains, though re- garded by the late drought, have be- come invigorated by the recent rains and will yield well. Peas will be veh:'y good; oats only fair. Flan is heavy, though short. Hay cutting is complet- ed. It is an average crop. Vegetables are doing well. Small fruits have rip ened and are in abundance. Plums; peaches and pears will be above - the average,'while apples are a light, crop.. Grapes good: On the whole' the far- mers•in this section have nothing to complain of. Remember that Conductor ' Snider will lecture in the James St. Methodist: church on Tuesday evening, August 4th: His subject will be "Life on the Rail, or people you meet."

Under the pressure of public opinion, it is lik- ely that Parliament will adopt new measures for their exclusion as "desti- tute' aliens." It is eertainly better for the refugees themselves that they should not go to England, where they would have to live in crowded cities with very slightprospect of improving their condition in life.

T Although our streets are not throng- ed with farmers these days the town is by no means quiet. Almost every ev'g. there is a lecture, concertsocial or gar- den party, or something of this kind to keep a person continually going down,. into his pocket.

Ment, arrived in town and gave 'anex- hibition in the evening.

The London, England, Mites sum- maries the crop prospects of the world as follows: Iu Russia there is :t grave deficit, The peasantry are starving, and there is small hope of relief. In India a serious drought prevails over a considerable portion of the contry. Madras, Ragiipatha and the Pau ljab are the worst sufferers. There is drought in Bengal, and the need of more rain is urgent. Bombay alone promises a brood harvest. The Ameri- can harvest will be good in quality and \a ill likely offset the failure of the Indian and Russian supplies. It is of, the utmost importance that the Eng- lish crop shall not be short. The pros- pect on the whole is good; In the chief. wheat come tries Norfolk at Suffolk -the crops is above the aver- age and in other eotintries up to the average.
