Fell Wheat,-Ilervesting began in the
soatinevest aboutjuly 7th; on August 10th
wbeat wee being cat in .Algorret, and on the
15th in the northeeasteru section of the
peoviace. The greet bulk of the mop was
cut between July 15th eud July 2.5t1I. As
to yield, the reports indicate an average
for the eueire province of 19.0 bushels oer
acre. Some threshing had been done, but
inost of the reports were °etiolated in the
sheaf. , As the reporta of thin straw and
small and shrunken grain are quite common
from all parte of Ontario, and ehe fields are
sonieWhat uneven our later reports from
exact, threshing results may show a yield
lower rather than bigher than this, The
yield per aere appears to be a little higher
than tho general commeats of the cone-
spondenta would auppore. The condition is
up to the -average ; reports of rasting aro
rather numerous, but little or no demitge
from insects is mentioaed. The grain in
many seobions is reported as having filled,
a little too rapidly and to be small or
shrunkere On the whole, the prospects,
aocording to me correspondente, point to
an Leverage yield of fair quality.
Spring WIteat.-This is probably the
poorest grain mop of the present season,
Everything appears to have been agedaet
Firat the wet spring gave alete and uneven
start to the wheat. 'Then the drought of
many districts caused too 'rapid filling, and
has produced muole shrunken and inferior
grain. Rust has been common Mall parts
of the province. The midge and other in-
sects are reported ite being very destructive
this year, especially in West Midlend,
Georgian Bay, and East Midland districts.
Grasshoppers were more numerous then
usual, and in the Georgian bay and neigh-
bouring counties did a large amount of des
stritetion. Metering of the crop has been,
very uneven and harvesting.has been early
in men counties, quite late ta others. On
the whole spring wheat promises to be a
very poor crop, small in quantity, and be-
low the average in quality -in fact, from
the reports of correspondents, it might
almoet be seh down as a failure.
Barley, --This orop had a Liter start than
usual ; then, in most parts of the province
the growth of straw was chocked by dry
weather, and filling of the grain and matur-
ing took place too rapidly. The straw, as
a consequence, is somewhat short, and the
quantity is below the average yield per
acre. The grain is on the whole of line,
bright colour, but smaller and lighter in
weight than usual. Tho yield per acre is
below the average. The six -rowed variety
appears to have done better than the two.
rowed, the short glowing season being
against the perfect development of the lat-
ter. The berloy crop reports may he sums
ined up thus : Total yield tor the prays
ince below the everage, grain lighter in
weight than meal but first-class in ool-
our.
Oatse-The oat mop has not turned out
so well as its condition on Jaly 1st indicat-
ed. The excessive dry weather checked the
grewth of straw, which, as a consequence,
will be somewhat shorter than usind, and
will give a lighter yield per acre. The grain
has not filled perfeetly, and will be v. little
light a thc yield will be only fair. Some
damage by rust has been reported, but the
almost universal complaint 18 from grass-
hoppers. Four-fifths of the correspondents
from the Lake Erie counties refer to them.
From Lambton, Sims:ea, Middlesex, North -
timberland and Durham, Prince Edward,
Lennox and Addington, and Frontenao,
come reports of groat destruotion to every,
thing growingin the fields. Correspondents
report them more numerous and destractive
than for many years. Although the acreage
originally SOWS to oats was larger than
usual, the total yield will, contrary to ear-
lier prospects and indications, probably fall
considerably below what wOuld be consider-
ed a good yield ior Ontario.
Peas. -This crop promises to be fair to
good. The vines podded well but the
drouth has prevented the pods from filling
perfectly, The "bugs" are again reported
as doing extensive damage in the West
Midland and Lake Erie districts. In going
over the entire provinee the crop appears to
be somewhat uneven, very light in some
-places owing to drouth and rapid maturing ;
damaged by the pea bug in others, while in
some townships it is excellent. On the
whole the crop will be about up to the
average. Harvesting had begun August lst
in a fewplaces, was still in progress Aug-
ust 15th all over Ontario. `
Rye. -Much of the rye haa been cut and
fed green; the small quantity left to mature
has turned out a fair orop in most cases.
Drouth checked its growth somewhat.
Beans. -The harvesting of the bean crop
is beingsomewhat extended in time this
year owing to the dif6 cultyanddelayin plant -
mg. •Barlyplanted ha e yielded an average
quantity of good qualitylate planted will
turn out below the average in both quantity
and qualitty owing to the drontin Reports
indicate a largely increased acreage, and
only a moderate yield on the whole..
Timothy e,nd Clover Hay. -The hay har-
vest began about the last week of June,
and ran on to the last week of July. Tbe
earliest cutting reported to us was June
20th; on August 12th some hay was yet to
be cat in Muskoka. Clover is by far the
best mop of this season, timothy second.
Not a single report comes to as of less than
one ton to the acre, some' give three, and a
few even go over three up to four. • The
weather was on the whole very favourable,
and the crop housed or stacked in fine con-
dition. Some of the early cut was injured
by rain ; some of the lateet cut was inter-
fered with by the wheat harvest, and ma.
tured too much. Farm help was short about
the middle of July, when hay and wheat
harvesting were both in progress, A few
sample comments may be given: ",could
not be better ;" "secured in good condi-
tion ;" "best in 20 years ;" "in some places
clover had to be drawn from the field it
grew on to dry." Although the 1892 crop
was very large'that of 1893 is larger by
578,719 tons: The second crop of CIOVOr
VAS practically a failure. This report on
hay is final.
Corn. -This crop is cultivated in the
Lake Erie district more extensively than in
any other district, and the crop is reported
on the average to be very fair though the
drouth has affected it. in other districts
what corn is grown ie reported to be fair.
Hill corn is excellent, while ensilage is not
upto the mark.
Flax and Hope -Ilan and hops are not
generally grown, but where they are culti-
vaeed the crop varies from " failure " to
"exoellent," with the prepondereece
favottr of the latter term.
Potatoes. ---Potatoes will only be up to
the average,and probably not tbat. In
Several Of the, districts, particularly in the
weetern, part of the province, this mop has
suffered front drouth, while in the other
districts they ere, as a rule, repotted !small
and scraggy without any cause beingessign-
• Rootn-The reports regarding roots are
encouraging. They appear to have had a
good start, and in spite ef the &oath corns
pleined of in many quarters they give good
igns of yielding above the average.
Freit.-The reports regarding this crop
indicate that apples are a complete failure
throughout the province. Very few sche-
dules give one-third of a orop, while in the
majority of •instances the answer to the
question is either eomplete failure" or
"noice," In the Lake Erie district grapes
appear to be exceptionally fine, while pears
and berries are above the average. In the
Lake Huron district berries are good, and
cherries and grapes fair. In the Georgian
Bey diatrict, cherrica are a fine crop in Grey,
while in SlIDC00 the berries are excellent
and grapes fair. The St. Lawrence and
Ottawa, ,East Midland and Northern dis-
tricts do not report favourably ou anything
but the berrien Several of the fruits do net
appear to be cultivated in mann sectione-
Paaturea and Live Steele -The reports
from all diatricts show that pasture, up to
July 20, Was good, but after that the fields
began to sailer through lack of rain. Pas-
ture therefore, for the past few weeks bas
been a failure, save in the Northern, East
Midland, and the northern portions of the
St. Lawrence and Ottawa districts. In
thee the pasture has been and is good.
The stook, however, have done well, coil-
sidering tee season ; and the indications are
that fall and winter fodder will te ample.
The supply of dairy proclucm considering
the province as a whole, is about the aver-
age. Complaluts are made that there is a
{scarcity of butter in the west, owing to the
dry weather causing the supply to lessen.
In the northeastern part of the province
there are no such complaiets
Bees and Honey.-Proin every quarter
the bees are reported to be in a healthy
condition, and they have not suffered from
any oomplaint during the summer. From
the Georgian Bay district itis reported that
a large number of colonies were destroyed
by the severe weather of the past whiter,
Swarming all over the province wherever
been are kept was good.. The supply of
nectar, in field and forest, in one or two in-
stances only, is reported to have been
deficient, but in all others itis good, except
in a few oases, where it is givenaa super-
abundant. The average yield per colony is
variously stated. This depends largely
upon the manner in which the bees are
cared for. Some colonies are reported as
yielding 20 lbs., while the average appears
to be 401bsawith not a few rating °ASO, 100,
and 150 lbs. In Weet amd East Midland,
Northern, and Georgian bey districts hoes
aro not extensively kept, nor are they in
the counties of Huron and 13ruce in the
Lake IItu on dietrict. The answer to the
question, "are bees in a thritty condi-
tion at present 'I" is unanimously in the
affirmative.
Farm Labour. -By the answers given to
tho questions on this topic it would appear
that farmers do not have much additional
help in the harvest. They appear to hire
men for the greatest part of the year, Bey
seven or eight months, and trust to ma-
chinery to enable them to secure their
ceops. In the Lake Outario district there
appears to be a scarcity of farm labourers,
with wages in harvest time ranging from
$1.25 to £2 per day,unci from $15 to $40 per
month. From the St. Lawerence and Ot-
tawa distriot some seations rep.ort scare-
ity because the young men are in the lum-
ber mills. In the East Midland diatrietthe
supply of labour is given as fairly good,
and the wages $1.25 per day, and $20 to
$30 a month. Other sections of this dis-
triot report the anomalous condition of
the scarcity of labour and low wages. In
the Northern district the aupply was not
sufficient, save in Algoma, where quite a
number could not got work. The supply
in the Lake Erie district appears to he
"not quite sufficient," and the average
wages are quoted at $1.25 per day, and $25
per month. In the Lake Huron district la-
bour is plentiful, except in the County of
Bruce, while there is a scarcity in the
Georgian Bay and West Midland districts.
The average rate of wages for harvese hands
throughout the province is about $1.25
per day, and $21 per month
Liars on Cattle.
An old agricultural writer says that some
twelve years ago he noticed his bull was
free from lice when the rest of his cattle
were not. Thinking the matter over he
came to the conclusion that the bull's hebit
of throwing dirt over himself must have some-
thing to do with his freedom from lice. So
he tried dry earth on the rest of his cattle
with good results.
"Since then I have used dry earth and
have frequently put it on cattle having lice
and have found it perfeatly efficacions,both
as a preventive and a cure. If in winter I
think it needed and cannot get it otherwise,
Igo into my cellar and got a few quarts.
There is no danger in using too much.
Dry it on the stove,then sprinkle it over
the back from head to tail, and working in
and through the hair it soon destroys all
lice. I believe the earth to be just ae effica.
cious,less dangerous and less expensive than
tobacco or any of the acids recommended."
A common remedy for treating cattle lice
is coccaus indices, of which use one-half
pound for each animal, pulverizing it and
mixing with two quarts of vinegar, allow-
ing it to simmer one hour on the stove.
This should he applied thoroughly by rah-
bing it well into the hair over the infested
parts. A kerosene emalsion made of two
gallons of kerosene and one-fourth pound of
whale -oil soap in a gallon of water is also
very effective. The solution of soap should
be heated before adding the kerosene and
the mixture churned for five or ten minutes
to make the emulsion. This should be dil-
uted with eight parts of water and applied
thoroughly.

HEALTH.
A Great Germ Rider.
In view of the possible advent of cholera,
in this ceuntry, many cheap and simple
disinfectants have been proposed for the
use of the people, Of these, one of the
moat effective is common soot. Soot is
composed of pure earbon, and is formed by
the hob vapor of the hydro -carbon coming
from burning. fuel strikiug the cold walls of
the chimney or stove pipe and condensing
thereon.
It is a, very light, porous and impalpable
powder, and. like charcoal, which is the
same element iu a different form, Isssoesges
the property of abaorhing and retaining a
wonderfully -large amount of gas.
The great danger of disease about sewers,
drains and other places is almost entirely
due to gas given off by decomposing mat-
ter. If soot be sprinkled about time places
it will absorb the foul gas. When cholera
was expected in Baltimore some sixteen
yeara ago, Dr. Piggot, a celebrated chemist
of the time, annotoiced that the old disin-
fectant vrith which chelera could be la all
effectively combatted was copperas or eule
phate of iron, and he made a composition
of charcoal and copperas which was said to
have been invalueble in its disinfecting
properties.
The general ides, in disinfeeting is_ first,
to provide a means for absorbing the death -
dealing gas, carrying with it millions of
dieeased germs, and then to have the necess
sary agent to destroy the germs after they
are absorbed. Ohareoel has always been
regarded as an excellent disinfeetant, but,
as a matter of fact, soot is superior to tt
from containing some of the unoxidized hy-
drocarboes contained in the smoke from the
fuel, and among these hydrocarbons is
creosote, a germ-killor of wemaerful power.
Only Healthy Persons Sneeze.
This is a point alluded to by Mr. Jona-
than Hutchinson in a recent number of his
"Archives." He does not recalled himself
to have seeo any but fairly healthy persons
sneeze. He puts the question with especial
reference to the widely -spread popular sup-
eratition that sneeziug is a sign of health
and good luck. It is poseible, he thinks,
that, this may taxa had its origin in the'
fact that it is for the most part an act re-
strioted to time in fair health. Taylor, in
his "Primitive Culture," gives intereating
facts as to the prevalence of this creed and
as to certain customs associated with it,
and traoes it in pare to doctrines of anim-
ism, but Mr. Hutchinson thiettes the sugges-
tion lie has given may also have some value,
Wrinkles.
I•To evidence of advancing years is so un-
welcome as wrinkles. Wrinkles are but
the expression of the inner life, thought,
and feeling as the years go by. The best
remedies for wrinkles are altogether pre -

A source of dyspepsia is emotional waste

it is renewed as fast as it es used. But na-
ture makes no provision for the immense
amount expended by excessive care, by fuss
and worry, by hurry and drive, by explo-
sions of passion and by the undue exeite-
manta of pleasure. All those are like a

A New Discovery About Jupiter.
From the beginning of his work with the
telescope Professor Barnard has given
special attention to the planet Jupiter. In
1890 the planet was observed by him on
forty-nine nights with the 12 -inch equator-
ial, and careful measures made of all the
markings on the planet. In September
of that year he observed the singular pliant,.
menon of a double transit of the first satel-
lite across the disk of Jupiter. Project-
ed on the face of the planet it appeared
distinctly double, resembling a close double
star, the components being slightly un-
equal. This remarkable appearance has
not yet been accounted for. It WSS probab-
ly due to a bright belt en the satellite,
similar ta some of those on Jupiter. The
observations would imply that the satellite
in its revolution about Jupiter rotates 00 80
axis nearly perpendicular to its orbit, as in
the case of our own moon. The observa-
tions might also imply that the first moon
of Jupiter is really double, though thins ex-
planation is harclly. probable.
In July, 1892, he commenced to use reg-
ularly the large telescope on one night each
week, and naturally beg an systematic ob-
servations of the great planet. It was but
a short time before the superiority of the
largest telescope in the world for this work
was made manifest. Lecke course of mad
the writer received at Chicago a letter from
Profeseor Barnard written on Saturday
morning, September 10th, stating that on
the previous eyening (Friday), at about
midnight, he had observed an extremely
faint speck of light very close to Jupiter;
that it seemed to be moving with the planet;
arid that he stiongly suspected ib was a new
satellite, He sent that it Was so difficult
with the large telescope that:he was unable to
see it except by shutting out the light of the
planet. The suspected star was found by
the Observations of the following night to
be a new satellite, and on Monday morn-
ing the whole astronomical world was elec-
trified by the announcement that jupiter,
observed glove than any other planet for the
past three hundred years, had a fifth Moon,
revolving about it in less than twelve hours,
at a distance from the surface of the planet
of about 70,000 miles. -[S. W, Burnham, in

These Two 'Popular Alm
A very touching scene occurred at the
recent Military tournamenb in Toronto. -
The grounds were crowded to overflowing
with one of the most brilliant and fashion-
able ea eerings seen in this city this summer,
the enthusiasm was intense, and when the
hoarse voice of the officer who was olltoiat-
ing as director of ceremonies announced
that the band of the contingent would play
a eeleetion a momentary pause passed
over the multitude. The band. struck up a
few bars, and then it dawned upon the
crowd that it was playing the Maple
Leaf," and a loud cheer buret frotu a thou -
!land throats, completely drowning the
music. Every passage was applauded to
the echo, and at the end the enthusiasm and
cheering was intense. Men 4wavedtheirhats
and ladies their handkerchiefs. The band-
master graciously repeated thenumber, and
again the applause was repeated, whileb the
author, Mr. Alex. Muir, who is president of

plause had subsided the band played t.c.,Itule

Next came "Auld Lang Syne," which took
the people by storm. The incident was very
