Mr. Bruce, finds that the fall wheat,
all the way down the vaTiey, is a
partial failure. Some of it is I icing
cut lor hay, and a good deal 'more'
ought to lie. - lite Idea of the cause
of the failure is. that the wintur was
so mild that th. w-eeds started to
grow with the -wheat,' and they were
not killed. The cold weather and rain
m me eany spring stunted the., wheat..'
but the weeds kept coming. csMciaHr
