the two weeks mast NAV have had some
thing to do with their disappearance. but
the grounds that have been ne elected and
not washed are bad and cannot produce
anything this year in any case. and there
infest such grounds. they are dripping
with honeydsw, and the leaves are shriv-
eied With heat. judging from present In
dications, there will DO nothing like an
average crop raised in Ensiand this year.

until today. The vine 10 siack in many
places and has turned yellow. Some yards
have been washed four times over with
soap and quassia chips and are now per-
fectiy clean, and will probably raise . good
crop, but still We may have fresh ~
