The Crops in Ontario.
, The following is a bulletin sent out by the
;Ontario Department of Agriculture, from
dnformation sent in by correspondents, un-
der date of April 16th:
Fall Wheat. -This crop had entered a
, most critical period, as correspondents
wrote, and much uncertainty existed re -
ding its fature prospects. Early in
March fine, bright weather prevailed, and
the protecting covering of snow disappeared,
revealing the fields of wheat in a promising
condition in most quarters. The latter part
-- of March and the early portion of April,
however, was a season of alternate freezing
and thawing, and. the cold nights and warm
• days not only resulted in much "heaving,"
but also browned the tender blades and left
all but well drained fields with an appear-
ance all but satisfactory. The - situation at
the time correspondents wrote, was as fol-
lows : Fall wheat has been seriously set
back by spring frosts and the absence of
warm rains. Should another week or two
of unprepitious weather prevail, much of
the crop will have to be ploughed up or re -
sown; but as the roots are -rigorous, timely
showers and genial weather may carry the
-fields forward towards an average yield.
Where the fields entered the winter with a,
good top they are still vigorous and ver-
dant, and those who practise under -draining
rejoice in an encouraging outlook. The
greatfall wheat counties along Lake Erie
send rather discouraging reports, and in the
easterniportion of tlie Province, where the
acreage is small, the prospects are equally
poor for a good crop. In the Lake Huron
group, the county of Huron gives a cheerful
report, while Lambton and Bruce are
rather the reeersh. The Georgian Bay
counties' reports are equal in tone, and on
the whole the chances are hardly as good as
-usual. In the West Midland group, favor-
able reports prevail over those of a less en-
couraging character, and the same may be
said of the Lake Ontario counties. So far,
there has been almost complete exemption
from worms or insects.
Cloven -The reports concerning this crop
are not favorable. A few correspondents
speak of good fields and encouraging pros-
pects on high and well drained lands, but
east and west there has been a gooci deal of
" heaving " more particularly during the
spring, and a liberal application of the during
roller will not fully remedy matters. Old
meadows have suffered most in this respect,
and the newer fields are rather patchy and I
thin, owing to the drouth which prevailed
last autumn. A few correspondents alludel
to the injurious effects still treenable from}
thehrisitation of the grasshopper last sum -i
men At presenttthe changes appear to bef
rather against a good yield of hay eel
clover this year, although timely rains meet
make up for thepastdrawbacks.

Vegetation.- p to the time reports wer
-sent in, there had been but little actua
growth in field and forest. In face, at th
close of the second week of April vegetatio
appeared to be but little ahead ef what it wa
2 or 3 weeks earlier. A good spring ra
was hoped for by correspondents as some
thing that would start growth and bring th
season well forward.
Live. Stock. -Taken altogether, the re
ports concerning the condition cif live stoc
may be considered satisfactory. Horses de
not appear to have been as well cared for a
in former years, owing to low prices, yet
though rather on the thin side as a class
they have come through the *inter witl
but little sickness, barring an occasional at
tack of distemper. Horned cattle; as a
rule, are healthy, though thin; reports of
disease were very scattering. Tuberculosis
was referred to by some correspondents, but
the cases alluded to were not regarded as
serious: Sheep are in particularly good
trim, and lambing is proceeding most satis-
factorilyeseve that a few correspondents
complain of an unusually large proportion of
singles being dropped. Swine are also in •
generally good condition. Some form of
distemper is here and there reported, and a
disease resembling rheumatism has shown
itself in a few places, while in the neighbor-
hood of Dereham toweship hog cholera
broke oat recently, and carried off 200 hogs;
but, notwithstanding these local and occa-
sional occurrences, the swine industry has
seldom presented a more favorable bill of
health. There was plenty of fodder with:.
which to carry stock through the winter)
taking the Province all over.;
Farm Supplies ,-There is not much moan-
imity of opinion regarding the quantity of
hay, grain, or fat and store cattle on hand.
In the three western districts of the prov-
ince, the bulk of correspondents eeport
surplus of hay and wheat, and in some
counties there are more oats than are need-
ed for feeding and seeding. In the Lake
Ontario counties there is but little hay to
'spare, and in the eastern and northern hey,
wheat and oats are in store in only moderate
quantities. A great deal of hay Was pressed
and exported during the tall and winter,
and large quantities of wheat were fed to
live stock, more especially hei swine. Fat
cattle are hardly as plentiful as usual, and
-buyers appear to be shy in most quarters,
as several Icerrespondents ,fetate that fewer
beeves than usual haveobeee sold for May
shipment. , Store cattle are plentiful with
some cattle breederseand scarce with their
neighbors ; in fact, the cattle industry ap-
pears to be in a most unsettled condition,
except in the case of fresh ce es, which are
in better demand than ever for the dairy.

EGGS THAT WILL HATCH.
Last year 1 adeertised eggs that will hatch, and
the reports I have received from my numerous cus-
tomers prove thet statement to be correct. This
year I have a large pen of thoroughlwed •
BLACK M I NORCAS
second to none in the Dominion, and I challenge
any breeder in Huron to produce their equal. This
pen is headed by one of the highest scoring male
Birds in Canadi. These birds were exhibited at all
the leading shows in Huron last fall, carrying off 1st
and 2nd at Exeter, let and 2nd at Clinton, and all
the first prizes at Seaforth. Therefore, I do not
have to offer prizes for my own stock in order to
make sale for them, as these birds have already
pined for themselves a reputation as prize winners.
Eggs sold at prices to suit the times. Satisfaction
guaranteed. For full information call at Broderick
& Aitzers harness shop, at Grieve's implement im-
plement emporium, and Mr. Aitzel will give any in-
