APPLE FAMINE IN ONTARIO
Fears Are Entertained that the Output Will Not
Be Half the Normal Yield
. That there will hea apple fam-
ine. in Ontario,this season is pre-
dicted in' the Crop report recently
isued by the Provincial Depart-
ment of Agriculture. Arcording to
the statements of the Government
corresaondents throughout the pro-
,
7 vince, .the apple crop will be re-
markably light, and under exeep-
• tionally favorable conditions 'will
not 'equal hall the rearmed yield of
the orchards. From the first of the
season the apple trees have suffered
greatly from early frosts and subse-
quent dry spells, ,while even in
many of the sprayed orchards the
ecala. revages have been very -bad.
The tent caterpillar has also been
bad in the Eastern sections, and
$01110, orchards have been greatly
defoliated. Tim -early frests have
also injured the vineyards badly,
and the grape erop Will . be but
small. The pear yield will be good,
while plums and peachea will be
fully up to the yield of last year.
The reexats a the grain orop
show that the avezage yield per
acre is large. The grain is plump
and of exoellent color, and, al-
though the unfavorable conditions
pthvalling in the early Spring
°mind some anxiety, the excellent
weather following eliminated.. anY
bad effects whieh might have resulted, • The barley, oats and spring
and fall wheat yield irs heavy, al-
though the rye is emir' to be only

ever, „although clean and of good
quality, is remarkably short, The
ea crep will be fair, the yield in

ally good, while -the bean yield' is
heavy, Corn also will have a good

In„the 'opinion of formees the

year. In some districts the reports
show that there. is practically no
crop at all, while others abate thet

COMMENT ON EVENTS
Nothing Wrong With Canada.
On hie -return from England, Sir Ed-

Bank of Commerce, expresses himself very

an intervieW stated tbat there was no
need of anxiety among reputable Oann-

business ventures of, a sound nature.

diverting money from commercial (Mau.

sir Edmund. "is that she is the most pro.

fully and to charge a higher rate."

Baroness Macdonald of Earneeliffe Is
the only Canadian woman, almost the
only British woman who holds a title in
her own right. The Baroness le the widow
of Sir John A. Macdonald, and was creat.
