The army-worm about which the Westmin.
ster correspondent wrote so feelingly last
week has struck us at last and "gold bugs
and "silverites" are nowhere at present. The
crops are being devastated on every side %
acres of corn on the Doggy meadow farm en-
tirely ruined and reports from Maple Grove
farm, Homestead farm and from the farms OF
Wesley Foster and G. II. Jennison tell the
same story of desolation among the corn and
oats. Some of the farmers who have escaped
as yet are ploughing one or two burrows
around their fields, as it is said the worm
can't make its way across them, but it is a
forlorn hope at best.
