Agricultural Highlights of the Week'
( 'runt the County Agricultural
Clinton)
The recent heat wave, although wel-
cunle' iii some respects; has had quite
an effect on crops of late -sown spring
rgrain which, will result in a noticeable
decrease iu' yield. The hot dry days
and the lwt nights have su hastened
the maturity of these crops that in
some cases Mats have la 'culue white and
Ilut properly filled. A similar effect
is shown by late barley mit being
plump and full in the kernel. 'Jl'he
heat wave in the -Western Provinces
i causing similar etl'ec•t and the es-
timates of crop 'yield fur,that area will
decn•f;ase considerably. It would be
wrong to give the idea that- all the
sprint; crops in Huron are suffering
from the heat, because there are some
excellent fields of oats and mixed
grain which were swan late, in Maliwtng totui
, light by spudding. or niowifig in the
early bloom stage. When the field
heroines . badly° ftfested it should he
plowed ,and • cultivated. Sheep Will
