summary sent in to the Ontario De-

Representative of Huron County:—
Fall
ounty:Fall wheat and clovers are improving
daily. We had a nice little shower
on Saturday, May 16th, when one•
third of an inch of rain fell, This
has helped out considerably. We are
however, in need of further showers.
Orchards are coming along very nice-
ly and a large percentage' of the or-
li line
attentionm the n
chards receiving
of spray, It is quite a noticeable
feature this year the number of or-
chards that are being pruned, spray
ed and cultivated and otherwise cared
for. Many of these orchards had
not received attention for many
Years. Considerable large quantities
of spray material have been sold and.
several new spraying machines, A
large number of stacks of last year's
hay 'are still to be noted in the
county, these bearing evidence to the
large crop of hay last year and the
poor market daring the winter,
