Darin? the week the rain deacanded and the wind blew. But while farmer In Central Manitoba and Saskatchewan and Southern Manitoba rejoiced others were not ao pleated. The trouble was, the weather waa not discriminating enough, and there were teriitofto that found two and three day' rain a IltU trying to the patience The rain caused a little lodging of grain and beat down aome of It. but this will light itself again, and the chief cause for complaint was tb fact that harvesting waa delayed. The cuttmg of coame grain I gen eral, practically Speak tag. and rye u all thrashed In aome localities. Central Manitoba mention 49 bushel of rye to the acre and the yield Is oa the whole good. Wheat cutting ha started and should be general In moat plaeea except In northern area within the week. Must and sawfly are responsible for ome damage In Southern Satkatche-wan and there are some green crops but these local difficulties are offset by a general healthiness, and the West Is still sanguine of a heavy yield thl year. The heavy rain and the wind will make threshing harder work In some district, but there ha been a good deal of recovery of beaten-down grain. Front does not enter seriously Into this week's report except between Lett and Battleford. Saskatchewan, where It made Itself heavily felt.

The bashful pUchard. which stayed out In the deep so long this season that fishermen were wondering whether If 1t would ever come within range of their nets. has at laat put In Its appearance off the west coast of Vancouver Island. The non-appearance of the pilchard at the usual period this summer caused considerable anxiety among British Columbia fishermen and packers who. during the past two years, have Invested several millions of doUart In tlie establishment of elaborate pilchard meal and oil factories. Their alarm, how ever, has sutKlded consider Diy since the wary fish has returned In untold thousands. Old-time fishermen claim that the unusually heavy fishing to which the pilchard schools have been subjected since the order-in -council legalising their use for fertiliser and oil was passed Is responsible for the late appearance of the pilchard, but government experts contend that the lateness of the summer was the real cause. Our ambition Is to catch one of those summerlces-summer prophets sneaking Into a drugstore for a bottle of sunburn lotion. Border Cities Star.
