Grain Letter

chicago, Aug. zs.--All If eastern
Canada has suffered from drought ans
there is shortage of oats and hav and
pastrage. The Canadian governn emf
report for August says: an Nova
Scotia, all correspondents complain Of
protracted drought. Hay will be light
as compared with last year and in
some cases turnips have failed alto
gether, In New Brunswick clover was
much winter killed and hay is light
crop, owing to the drought of May and
June. In Quebec complaints as to ex-
cessiye drought are made throughout
the whole province The drought has
been most severe in the Montreal coun-
ties where practically all correspond
ents complain Of its effect upon the
pastures. In some cases farmers are
obliged to feed their animals or they
would die Of hunger, the pastures be-
ing SO bare. In Ontario heat and pro-
longed drought have severely affected
crops, many reports speak of prema-
ture ripening and badly filled grain.
Oats were attacked by rust to a GER
tain extent in central Ontario. but
widely in the southern and western
counties. From Brant Ii Is reported
that owing to the burnt pastures farm
ers have to feed live stock out of the
winter supplies. These reports show
that eastern Canada will be a heavy
buyer of oats this year on account OF
failure of home grown feeds.
