Seasonable Crop Report
summary of crop conditions by
tbe Statistics Branch shows the
[following: Rains in May further re-
tarded the seeding of-spu'ing grains,
especially on heavy soils and fields
that were soaked by excessive pre-
cipitation in April. At the end of
May approximately 10% of the
spring grain acreage in Ontario
had not been sown, although most
counties expedited to finish by early
in June, In counties bordering the
St. Lawrence River, progress was
slower, An unusual feature of the
present season is the fact that seed-
ing was as early In Northern On•
tario as in moat of Western and
Central Ontario, In Old Ontario the
season hag been two or three weeks
utter than usual, whereas in the
Northern districts it is a week to
two weeks earlier. Early sow',
grain has made good growth and
later seeding has greatly benefited
by the warm clear weather early
in Tune. With a continuation of
satisfactory weather conditions and
)vbundattt sail ,moisture, grwth
shuld be rapid, The outlook for
field crops is promising. The condo
ttou of spring grains on ,Pune 1st
. was placed between 91 and 92% at
the 1ong.itinte average, Tilts is
approximately the same as on June
1st, 1935 and 1936. The acreage
which farmers had intended to sow
to storing grains will be slightly re-
duced on account of lateness of
seeding, and as a result, the acreage
of tate cries such as buckwheat,
corn, dry beans, and soya beans well
be increased.
The 646,000 acres of fall wheat
