GENERAL

In the Prairie hovinces favor- able weather has been helnful in threshing operations. which are rapidly nearing completion. ex- cept. in Northern Alberta where harvesting has been delayed. The Dominion Govemment/s preliminary estimate gives the yield of wheat at 164,000,000 bushels, divided as follows: Alberta 76,000,000 bushels. Saskatchewan 35,000.00’) bushels. and Manitoba 53,000,000 bushely. In Manitoba wheat. yields are above the average, light. with the r-‘ain showing a high grade. m Alberta. except in the southeast- ern portion of the province, the wheat crop is generally satisfac- tory in yield and quality. In Que- bec province threshing of graim is well advanced and satisfactory returns are indicated. Apples are a good average crop. prospects
