Monday night with 175 pas- sengers was J. W. Johnson, father of the, noted English avlatrix, Amy Molllson. Accompanying Mr. John- son was his brother, T. H. Johnson. manager of the Canadian Fish and Cold Storage Company of» Prince Rupert and Steep Nilson, promin- ent Norwegian fish merchant. a resident of Hull, England. Mr. John- son is on the west Coast in the in- terest of his fish business. He plans on contracting for halibut and sal- mon, explaining that. the halibut catch off Greenland is now insufll- cient to supply the English market while Canadian salmon is a favor- ite on the Englsih table. Eniayrig every meal of his trip, it was Mr. Johnson's regret; his famous daugh- ter could not accompany him and he explained that her intense lil- terest in aviation occupied most of her time.

The branch managers have complete and intimate knowledge of each local situation and are in close touch with crop conditions in all sections of the districts mentioned. General The crop outlook inthe Prairie Provinces continues favourable ex- cept in southeastern Alberta and southwestern Saskatchewan, where moisture is lacking. Some early ‘sown wheat is in shot blade. In all three provinces warmer weather is required to stimulate growth. Pas- tures are in good condition. 1n Quebec, the hay crop is in excellent condition. but other crops generally have been retarded by too much rain, and warm. dry weather -is needed. In Ontario crops wntinue to make excellent progress, ideal growing weather having prevailed. In the Maritime Provinces condit- ions generally are promising, but. warm. dry weather is needed. In British Columbia, the season is still backward and more rain would be beneficial. Details follow: Prairie Provinces ALBERTA—Crop growth, gener- ally, is about two weeks late but conditions otherrvise are satisfac- tory. Some early sown wheat is in shot blaide and coarse grains are well above ground. The sugar beet crop is mskinz 800d headway and thinning has been completed. There is ample moisture except in the southeastern area. SASKATCHEW- AN-Crops generally present. a. healthy appearance, but: growth has been. slow. Moisture conditions are satisfactory except in the south- west. Weed growth has been heavy in some localities and damage from cut-worms and WlTC-WOIIXIS has oc- curred. Grasshoppers are becoming more active, bu; damage so far has been comparatively small. MANI- TOiBA-Wheat is a. hcay stand and stooling well, with some early sown fields entering shot blade. Coarse grains also are progressing favour- ably and prospects generally are promising. Hail damage has oc- curred ln isolated sections. Grass- hoppers are not: yet menacing. Province 0f Quebec Recent rains have been beneficial to hay, which is in excellent con- dition arid promises to be a bumper crop in some districts. Grass {rast- ures have similarly benefited and are good. Grains are backward and on low lands have suffered from excessive moisture. Small fruits promise well and a good yield of rxos FIVE _ (Agents Confer ‘ With Sales Mgrs‘ Agents of Massey Harris do. as. *3 sembled yesterday at; noon at the .
