CROP REPORT A considerable quantity of excel- lent hay was stored on Monday and Tuesday of this week, however heavy rain Thursday night further delayed haying operations in the conven- tional manner. More farmers than ever before in the County are putt- ing up grass silage in tower silos and horizontal silos both below or above the ground and also quite a number of farmers are putting up stacks of silage this year. Spring wheat is now completely headed out and is fence high and in a few cases there is severe lodging of the heavy crop. Spring grain is aloin ra id •owth with practi- cany all of the barley in head. It would appear that there is suf- ficient labour locally to meet farm- ers' needs now that our farmers are becoming so highly mechanized. m g p gr HENSALL The Riley reunion was held Satur- day, June 20, 1953 at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Bert Riley, Cromarty, with 105 in attendance.
