Summary of Crop Conditions— The weather in Ontario has been very hot since the first of July and moisture supplies generally were rather light. During the first three weeks of July local showers were received in most sections of the pro- vince and a heavy rainfall occurred in parts of Eastern Ontario at the end of the month but more moisture would have been beneficial in most counties. Pastures, roots and other late crops are now generally in need of moisture, according to a re- port by the statistics branch of the Ontario Department of Agriculture. The weather has enabled good prog- ress to be made with the harvesting of the grain crops. The fall wheat crop was practically harvested by the fleet of August, with an average yield of 20.1 bushels per acre. compared with 28.5 bushels in 1940. The acre- age in wheat this year is eonsider- ably below that of last year. The cutting of spring grains has proceed- ed rapidly during the past three 'weeks throughout Old Ontario. The production of spring grains will show a considerable reduction this year, due principally to drought which prevailed during the growing period, and to a lesser extent to some de- crease in acreage. The main hay and clover crop gave extremely low yields this year and total production is estimated to be about one million and a half tons lees than in 1940. Pastures througlicut most of Old Ontario are in poor condition. Many farmers have been feeding grain, and ensilage where available. A sugar -planter in Hawaii took a friend from the States to the edge of a volcano. "This crater is 70,004 years old," he explained. "How do you get the exact age?" asked the newcomer. "I can under- stand the 70,000, but how clo you calculate the foul'?" "Well, I've been here in the islands for four years, and the crater was 70,000 years old when I arrived."

POLANVS 'SECRET PRESSES. By ,Czeslaw Poznaski One c,f the first things the 'Nazis suppressed in 'Poland was the :Press, Pre-war Poland had 42150 'periodical ,publications, among t hem 1190 daily papers. To -day, in Gernean-ocrupied Poland, there are only sixteen publi- cathins in the tlitolish language and they are all published by the Nezis. Ilut .alongside this Nazi controlled press there is a network of illegal publications, a network amazing in its richness. The fitil number of these illegal publications is not known, but it is prohably not less than twenty -right, and their range is extremely, wide. 'First of all there are the daily pap- ers; roneo-typed sheets which give the foreign news .on the basis of the BBC Ibroadcasts—one must remember that the Poles had to surrender all their wireless sets—and inside infor- mation .from Totaled. Then come the weeklies, normally printed. They 'contain precious inside information erorn Poland, foreign news and editorials. The standard of these editorials is unusually high. They deal not only with the analysis of the present situation, but also with the construction of ihe future. ,A reg- ular Ifeature of these weeklies is the analysis of important articles in the deritish press. !Some of the papers arc illustrated, so that one may find in one of them, say, a photograph of IWinston Churchill and General Sik- oreki inspecting the Polish Army. There exist also monthly and quar- terly rewiews which contain synthetic analyses of OW War situatior. Thi -e reviews carry ae many a, thirty-tw,. pages. Special papers are produced for the peasants, for the youth, for the child- ren. There is even a lonnoreen- peeer kith anti -German cartoon- and Joke-. And in the 'Warsaw attetto there ie a Yiddish paper. Score, of thousanee of copies are thes isetied, and it tem be asserted that this illegal press reaches prat- tieelly 'the entire populatioe. 'Proof of this statement is provided by the [act that the whole population obeyed the order conveyed by the papers on September It, 1'940, to stay indoors during the afternoon. It was also 'by means of the, papers that the IFolish petty officials were instructed, in or- der to avoid repression to take the oath demanded by the German aduth- orities. Apart from these regular publica- tionthere are also occasional leaflets short pamphlets and quite longish publications, one of which dealt with the post-war reconstruction of Eur- ope. All these publications entail ,print- ing presses--eprobahly concealed in the woods of Poland—well over a hundred editors and contributors, and hundreds of thousand,' of readers. Ev- ery person involved risks his life for death is the penalty not only for working on an illegal paper, but even for reading it.
