The Branch Managers have complete and intimate knowledge of each local situation and are in close touch wtih crop conditions in all section of the districts mentioned. l i GENERAL With crops continuing to de- teriorate in most areas of the Prairie Provinces from lack of mois- ture estimates indicate that the grain yields of the West will be lighter than for many years. The grain is ripening prematurely, and indications point to an early ha!- vest. Cutting of early grains has already commenced in Saskatche- wan and Manitoba .snd in the lat- ter province harvesting will soon be fairly general. some rust infec- tion is reported in Manitoba and Saskatchewan. In Quebec the staple crops have all made satisfactory progress. In Ontario general rains and cooler weather have been beneficial to all growing crops, but yields of grains, canning crops and early potatoes have been curtailed by the previous hot. dry weather and the season has not been fav- ourable to fruit. In the Maritime Provinces the general outlook is encouraging, with crops throughout progressing well. In British Colum- bis. good crops of the principal staples are indicated Details fol- flow: PRAIRIE PROVINCES AI..BER.TA—Crops generally "aw from below avrrage to poor. In the northwest and north central dis- » trlcts they are fair to good, having been improved by rscent. rains. Elsewhere there has been further deterioration from con tlnued drought and some hall. Hay and pastui-age generally are poor, with serious feed and some water short- age in ranching areas The sugar beet crop prospects are favourable. SABKATCllEWAN— Some fairly promising crops remain in eastern and central areas. but elsewhere prospects vary from fair to total failure. Good mlns are still urgent- ly needed in most districts. MANI- TOBA~'I'hc condition of the whrat crop varies greatly and yields for the most part will be light.
