Clinton New*.,Recor Grain Chops In Canada, 'f'ho JI'oinitlion l3upoau of Statistics. issued The middle of July the ustia'l revised estimate of the areas sawn to spring grains, an estimate of the arena under later sown oti ea s an d hoed crops and the condition of graincrops ouJt_t cBQth as oo p ii - ed from s thG rettu] b 0f Gh.Ap C9 es- pAoruedaesntUp,dez Principal Grain Crops and 1 -lay , For all crops, except peas, the es- timate of areas sawn to spring grams Is less than it was a month ago, the decrease being caused by unfavourable weather conditions in the West, For wheat, the total acreage is now estimated at 15,888,- 000 acres, or 7 p()reeks. more than last year, spring wheat occupying 15,497,300 acres,, or 10 p.c, more than last year. For. oats the area sown is now placed at 13,784,000 ac- res, or 4 p.c. more than last year ; for barley the area is 2,403,750 ac- res, and for rye 228,900 acres. Peas occupy 205,730 acres, mixed grains 501,400 acres, hay and clover. 8,015,- 250 acres and alfalfa 102,900 acres. In the three prairie provinces the area sown to wheat is 14,304,000 ac- res, comprising 2,918,000 acres in Manitoba, 0,101,000 acres in Saskat- chewan and 3,245,000 acres in Alber- ta, Later Sown Cereals and Hoed Clops The estimated acreages of later sown cereals and hoed crops, as coinpared with 1917, are for all Canada as follows : Buckwheat 407,- 800 as against 885,977, flax 927,300 as against 010,500, corn for husking 218,400 as against 234,339, beans 105,560 as against 82,457, potatoes 080,300 as against 650,858, turnips, etc., 210,970 as against 218,233, sugar beets 13,200, as against 14,- 000 and corn for fodder 344,700 as against 368,51.8. The area under beans shows an increase of 1.4 p.c., and that under potatoes an increase of 4 p.c. The areas sown to both of these crops is the largest on rec- ord ecprd ; the increase of beans is chiefly in. Quebec and of potatoes in Quebec and in Alberta. Condition of Grain and Hay Crops. In general, the condition of grain crops in the Atlantic provinces is not so good as it was this time last year, and there is also a slight failing oft as compared with a month ago ; but the prospects for good yields are fair. In Prince Ed- ward Island the condition of wheat is 2 above, in Nova Scotia 1 below and in New Bruuswiek 1 above the decennia average. Oats are 2 points below average in Prince Edward Is- land and Nova Scotia, but 1 above average in New Brunswick, In Que- bec conditions have gone back during Julio, but are still more favourable than they were a year ago. Spring wheat is 103, oats are 101 and bar- ley is 100. In Ontario fall wheat remains poor, being 70, or. 38 p.c.. below average, but spring wheat is 101. Oats and barley are equal to the average. In the prairie provinces drought and continuous high winds during June have. caused serious damage to wheat crops, and large areas have had to be resown to other crops. In the northern parts of these three provinces, however, the rainfall has been sufficient, and conditions are fairly promising. For spring' wheat the condition is ex- pressed numerically by 88 in Man- itoba, 85 in Saskatchewan and .83 in Alberta, i.e.., 17 to .1.2 p,c. below average. In British Columbia, hot, dry weather in May and the early part of .lime retarded growth, and the condition of wheat is 10 and of oats 14 p.e. below average. Reports of Provincial Governments Telegraphing on July Oth, the Saskatcbewan Department of Agri- culture reports that more rain is greatly needed throughout the prov- ince. In many sections wheat has headed out, but is very short, and not more than half a crop is anti- cipated. Conditions are better in the north-western and southeastern districts, where prospects are excel- lent. In the southwestern and south. eastern dibtricts crops are nearly ruined, a tew points reporting better prospects than the majority. The Alberta Department of Agriculture telegraphed (July 7th) that while the grain crops of the whole prow taco, except the Edmonton, Peace River and Grand Prairie districts, have been seriously affected by the lack of moisture recent rains cover- ing most of the province. have helped the general situation, Stanley Township Pte. John Guilford, who has been in training at London, was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. John Scotchmer for a few days recently, While here the neighbors and friends took the op- portunity of presenting him with a beautiful military wrist watch, which will serve as a little reminder of his old friends when, he goes overseas. John is a popular chap around here and has the very best wishes of a large circle of friends. Miss Mary Stogdill and little cousins, Mae and Eddie Brown, have spent a few weeks at the former's home on Goshen Line , and motored this week with. Mr. and Mrs. Hinds to Waliaceburg. Mr. J. 13. Levis of Clinton deliver- ed two new Chevrolet cars to Messrs. Alex. McEwan and his brother, John I3, Mc•Ew n. last week. Postmen went on strike at Vic- toria, Vancouver, New Westminster and Winnipeg. Dominion Police have rounded up thirty-seven of the alleged ringlead- ers in the disorders of registration day in .11eauce and Montmagny coun- ties. TETE WESTERN FAIR London's Popular Exhibition This Popular Exhibition will be held this year from Sept.. 6101 to 14th. Queen's Park, where the Exhibition is field, has been occupied since last year by the Military Authorities. They have reoently vacated the buildings and grounds, going up to Carling Heights. This leaves a lot of work to do to, prepare the place for the Exhibition, Large gangs of men are at work and more will be secured as the work goes on.

Most of the wheat flour substitutes retain the moisture in the loaf longer than will the wheat four and yield an increased amount of bread on account of their higher absorption of water, thusreducing the amount of yeast and shortening necessary. The ,following aro a few of the recipes recommended to bakers. They will be useful also in private. households when substitutes are to be mixed with wheat four for bread. CORN FLOUR BREAD 4. pounds standard flour, pound corn four 1 tablespoon brown sugar 2 tablespoons salt oz. yeast 1 tablespoon fat 3 cups of water. Phis should produce 4 pounds of bread.
