The'height and appearance of the corn crop too gave evidence that it required a somewhat different treatment and a little warmer atmosphere if it were going to result satisfactorily. The second cut of alfalfa was in bloom and ready to be harvested, but what was the use of cutting • it? The damp weather has been just exactly what bean growers do not want. The spores which cause anthracnose, the most destructive pest affectingthe crop, spread more freely during damp weather and cause a poor sample. Onion growers too complained of difficulties with their crop. Going To Regina. The Christian Guardian has the 'following to say of a Winghamite in the person of Mr. J.
