RIBHMUMD HILL VICINITY! 90 HINGE-STREET, House-Keener’ It has taken AND OF The reports on the wheat crop of the Province, made to the Bureau on the 1st of August, are not Wholly satisfactory. They show that as regards both quantity and quality much of it Is Inferior to last year’s crop-â€"â€"that. in fact, its market valâ€" ue at present quotations must be less by several millions of dollars. But it should be borne in mind that last year’s crop was an extraordinary one, and conse- quently that comparison with it as the standard cannot be accepted as fair. \Ve have not yet sufficient data. to ascertain confidently what an average wheat crop in Ontario is. For this purpose it is necessary to obtain returns for a series of successive years, giving as accurately as possible the acreage and produce for each year. The present harvest is probably ‘Melow an average over the whole Prov- ince, but no one can state positively whether it is or not. Last year, accord- ing to the statistics collected by the Bureau, the area under Wheat was 1,775,- 337 acres, the produce 40,921,201 bushels and the average yield per acre 23 bushels This year the area is 1,691.603 acres, the produce (as estimated by correspondents) 27,398,393 bushels, and the average yield per acre 16 bushels. For the two years the average would therefore be 197 bush- els per acre It is possible, however, that the results of the threshing season may modify to some extent the figures for this year. The uneven character of the crop makes it difficult to estimate the yield of Fall Wheat, and Spring Wheat is liable to be affected by rust and the attacks of insects. The May report of the Bureau showed that in the western half of the Province Fall Wheat was damaged to a Serious exâ€" tent during the winter months,â€"being either frozen to death under a coat of ice and sleet in the southeln counties, or smothered to death under a heavy cover- ing of ice-crustedsnow in the northern. It was also injured in some localities by exposure to spells of intense cold after the snow and ice had disappeared. The low temperature of April and May made the condition of the crop at disheartening one to the farmers, and much of it was in consequence ploughed up or resown with other grain. The returns showing the area. of Fall \Vheat dealt with in this way are somewhat imperfect, but in the Lake Erie, Lake Huron, \Vest Midland and Georgian Bay counties it was not less tha1160,000 acres. In the western half of the Province the wheat wintered re- markably well, and the crop is not much below that of last year. The heavy rains of June and July were favourable in pro- moting a vigorous growth of straw, but in all sections of the Province correspond- ents report that the excess of moisture has been accompanied with rust. In the Judgment was delivered in the \Vest Simcoe election case on Saturday. Mr. Phelps being unseated. The respondent was acquitted of any knowledge or con- sent in the matter of supplying meals or liquor to voters by his agentsmpon which charges the election was voided.

The niiuutes of the last: meeting, as reported in THE LIBERAL of July 20th, wage read and accepted. From S. Ditsofi, Collingwood, enclos- ingiten diurllajrs towards_ the gelleyal fund. From Mr. J. W. Baker, now in \Vash- ington, stating that the prospects for suc- cessfully accomplishing the object of his mission to \Vashiogton, and stating that all that is required is money, and asking that it be forwarded at once. Also stat» ing that Col. Henry Baker, according to the State records, was one of the most able and brilliant men of his day, and that in four or six weeks the whole mati- er would be in satisfactory shape if funds were provided, and all that would then remain to be done Would be to prove the heirship and the properly would be in waiting. Some of the heirs thought it was time there was something more substantial and definite laid before them. considering the amount of money sent 80 Washington, and in absence of this they (lid not feel like contributing any more in the dark without knowing whether it was being put to proper use.

The breadth of Spring \Vheut is nearly the same as last year, although seeding operations were hindered by rainy weath- er. On all high or well drained lands it made line progress throughout July, and unless injured by rust or insects it prom- ises a larger yield than last year’s crop. The recent cool and bright weather has been very fMourz-ible to its maturity, but the midge, the weevil and the Hessian fly are reported in all the best Spring \Vheut districts. The extent of the damage done by these pests, however, cannot be fully known until the wheat is ripe. In the Lake Ontario L.lԤi{ll0t the harvesting sea- son commence-1 ,.Li.u’i the 15th inst., and in the northerly and north-easterly dis- tricts about the 20th or 25th. This is about two weeks later than ,the usual period of Spring Wheth harvest. western counties, where there is a. great depth of alluvial soil, the rust has proâ€" duced its worst effects, and the grain is considerably shrunken. 1n the eastern counties, on the other hand, the injury is C(miparatively slight. Insect posts are not numeIous, but the presence of tho midge and the Hessian fly is noted in some localities. \Vith the favourable harvest weather of the past three weeks the crop will no doubt be housed in good condition.
