In Southern Ontario spring wheat was reported at June lst at only 75’} of the long-time average and oats and barlcy at 86",. In Eastern and Northern Ontario. spring grains are slightly below av- erage due to the lateness of seeding. but soil moisture supplies are genâ€" erally quite ample, and with the warmer weather now prevailing growth should be rapid. Fall wheat crops suffered very little winter killing. benefitted from the heavy rainfall in April and are in good to excellent condition throughout the province.

I have seen nothing to come within a mile of the new Russell Lupincs. The Gold Medal was never more richly deserved." Such praise from one so qualified! to judge scaled my fate. I must have Russell Lupinesl The seed was ordered and duly ar- rived in the gorgeoust lithographed packets. I could easily visualize the wonderful blooms in the places al~ ready allotted them in the border. What fireside gardener was not sim- ilarly thrilled? I wonder how many made the same error as I did. The seed was carefully chipped and planted. They germinated quickly; almost 100 per cent soon developing into sturdy plants that were in due time placed in the positions where they were to send up their unrivalled spikes of bloom. All grew beauti- fully for about a month; ,then dis- aster. They began to curl up and pass away. What was wrong? It couldn’t be the soil. The original soil had been removed and carefully replaced by the mixture recommend- ed by the grower. It wasn't insects or grabs; root and foliage revealed none. No fungus disease either. Still, one by one, the plants were dying. It finally occurred to me, that Lupinus Polyphyllug belongs to the great family Leguminosae. This. IS the same group to which belong such wellâ€"known plants as beans, peas, clovers, alfalfas, etc. Any good far- mer would have recognized the symp- toms, as they were the same as alf- alfas, etc, grown on “clovel‘~sick" soil. The reason for my failure was the lack of the bacteria which is essential to the life and growth of this family of legumes, The relation! between this organism or soil bac-. monting on interesting. Unlike most plants they , cannot take nitrogen directly from the soil but must depend upon thisl bacteria to manufacture it from the: air.
