» Below will be found a brief syn- Epsis of telegraphic records receiv- ld at the Head Office of the Bank B! Montreal from its Branches. The Branch Managers have complete Ind intimate knowledge of each local situation and arc in' close Much with crop conditions in all lictions of the districts mentioned.

GENERAL

Farming operations have been delayed in many parts of the Dom- inion by unpropitious weather. In British Columbia the season is ful- ly two weeks later than usual, tn the Prairie Provinces it is one to two weeks late, and in Quebec and the Maritime Provinrrs it is some- what backward. In Ontario. on the other hand, the season is about ten clays earlier than usual, and farm- ing operations in that province arc well advanced. Seeding is becom- ing fairly general in the southern and central districts of Manitoba and Saskatchewan. but it has bare- ly been commenced in the nothern areas of these provinces and in A1- berta. While initial moisture con- ditions generally are ample, subsoil moisture reserves arc meagre over large areas. In QJEIJEC spring ploughing is not yet general, due to continuance of frost in the ground. Fall wheat in Ontario h"s come through the winter fairly well. and seeding is general. 'In the Maritime Provinces, owing to adverse weather, leeding will bc delayed by as much as two uvnks in certain sections. Fall wheat ilviutered well in British

Columbia, and sowing of spring grains is 50 per cent. completed. ‘Bennination, howcvc“. has been

PRAIRIE PROVINCES

Alberta-Seeding is not likely to be gr-neral until Mav 10th. The seed bed is in good condition and there is amF-‘B top soil moisture but Iittlc reserve moisture in the sub- soil. The late season is likely to re- sult in a dccrcasc in wheat acreage and a. corresponding increase in the acreage of coarse gzains. Pastures need warmth. Sugar beet seeding is bdckward. Saskatchewan~Se:ding is just commencing in the north. but is reroming general in other dIptricts. Initial mofsturc conditions are fairly good, but there are little reserves over large areas of the pro- vince from Saskatoon south. Dust storms to date have not been ser- i . Most districts report that the Srﬁage to be sown to wheat will hp lowered, particularly in the southern areas, where farmers are liindicapped by shortage oi seed, ikd and horse power. MANITOBA JSeedIng has commenced in prac- tbally all districts and will be cen- dal this week. Early moisture con- ditions are favourable but subsoil rdccrve; are meagre in southweatem time.

drifting. Indications point to a re- duced wheat acreage, particularly in the southwest, due to poor con- ditign of horses and shortage of see .

PROVINCE OF QUEBEC

Pastures and meadows have come through the winter with lit- tle apparent damage, but more rain and warmer weather an: needed to promote growth. Livestock has wintered well and will presently g0 onto pastures in good condition. The maple syrup yield to date is better than average and of good quality; pz-ices obtained by produc- ers, however, have been lower than last year.

PROVINCE OF ONTARIO

The land is working up info a very friable condition. Old meadows appear to have wintered satisfac- torily, but new craps of clover are spotty. Orchards, while still suffer- ing from the severe winter of 1933- 34, show little apparent damage from frosts, and cherry trees are commencing to bloom. Tobacco plants under glass are showing satisfactory growth. Livestock wint- ered well, but few farmers have turned out their cattle, as insuffi- cient rainfall has retarded growth of pastures.

MARITIME PROVINCES

are in in the 8

Pastures and meadows good condition. Orchards Annapolis Valley show little sign of whiter kill. Livestock has wintered 0 well. Indications are that the acreage devoted to potatoes will be less than last year.

PROVINCE 0F BRITISH COLUMBIA

The soil is in good condition with adeouate moisture. The onion crop in the Kamloops district has been planted. the acrzage being estimated at 15 per cent over the average. Early tomato plants were damaged by frost and required" placing. Planting of potatoes is about 50 mr cent completed. Frvlt

some orchards suffered by severe “rather. Apricots have been dam- aged by frost and some other fruis.

Popular Personality

The Prince, at the clozc of the war, was in his 25th year. and was little known to the publi at lma: even at home. In the fen ye:rs foi- lowing he became easily the mos‘. popular personage in the Enxlish- speaking world. His debut as An-

bassador of Emp .1 was in August '

1919, when he made his first visit to Canada. The Prince's exteslon of this visl‘. to the Unit:d States was at ﬁrst regarded with some little apprehension at home. Ac- cording to an English critic at that time the question of who Ilild won the war was estrangling felltiﬂns. "The strict police supervision maln- tained over the Princes movements and the sececy of his program made it impossible for him to n".- seive any popular welcome at Washington. It was the Prince himself who insisted that at New York all this ‘mystery and pre- caution should be dropped, and his smile, reinforced with his cheery wave of the hand. as he passed through the streets, won a com- plete victory."

The following yeur the Prince visited Australia and New Maland. and in the year; immediately after ho visited India, South Africa, South America. with tvio other visits to Canada. and one other sojourn in

the States. His fourth visit to Canada was in 1927. The following year he wcnt on a huntng trip t) East Africa, but hurrfed home on news of the King's grave illness. and flushed his East African hunting t.ip two years later.

'

In regard to the (‘omestic wel- fare of the United Kingdom tn: Prince's kcenest interest of late has been devoted to the housing of the industrial classes. Hts exhorte- tions have not only contained pas- sages of almost burning indignation, but he has also set a considerable example towards u better state of things in the ref-conditioning of his own property on the Duchy of Oomwoil estate. at Kennington,

South Iiondon. Of his desire for the welfare of the youth of the nation striking proof has been afforded within the 1m few midis when the Prince submitted a scheme for celebrating the Jubilee by making substantial provision for the care of adolescents. The Prince's visits to the stricken industrial azeas of limcland and. Wales during the years of deep industrial depression were stimulating in more than one sense. Further evidence of the heir-apparents resolve to study things at close, quarters is evinced almost every week when he is not out of England. It is stating the obvious fact to say that in social wo y, and service he ﬁnds his great- est recreatian. It was recently writ- ten of him: “Th"re is less than no‘hin1 of policy‘ in his perrrtual vis'ts to East End clvbs. and in his zeal fcr the British Legion and kirﬁc-ed insfrutifna. He goes to all such funz-tlcns bccaus: they gen- ‘uinrly int-crest him."
