camp on Wednesday night was one
OF the most brilliant in the history Of
the camp. All the leaders who spoke
al the platform meeting that evening
agreed that It was one of the most
successful and enjoyable camps

Every one seemed loath to leave,
and indications are that next years
camp will be even larger. II is
probable that the trustees who have
done so much to beautify the
grounds and to improve the appear
ance Of the grove. generally. will
be compelled 10 build more cottages
before next season If they wish TO
accommodate the large number Of per-
sons who have already declared their
intention of camping at the grove

From a financial point of view the
camp was more successful than ever he.

War Crops in England.

The statistics which have just been
issued by the Bosrd Of Agriculture re-
garding the production OF crops m
England and Wales during 1915 are
especially interesting, since they deal
with the first complete year Of the war
The figures for wheat are very strik-
ing. Although the yield per acre in 1915
was only 3l.20 bushels, which Is four
ffths Of a bushel below the average Of
the ten years l9O5-l4 and rather more
than a bushel less than IN 1914, the
total production amounted 20 S,46il4l
quarters. This was 100000 quarters
more than in the previous year ana
100000 quarters above the decennial
mean. The reason for this greatly in-
creased yield was the fact that much
larger area was devoted to this crop.
The acreage under barley, on the con-
trarv. showed a Iderable reduction
as compared with previous years, and
that. combined with a poor yield per
acre. resulted In a total crop or only
4527,929 quarters, nearly 100000
quarters below the average Of the pre-
vious decade, and by far the smallest
crop recorded since produce returns
were first collected, in 1884 The yield
per acre was only 294l bushels, which
is nearly four bushels under average,
and, with one exception, the lowest ever
recorded. There was considerable IN
crease in the yield Of oats; so there
was Of beans and Of mangoids. De-
creases occurred, however, m the case
Of peas, potatoes, turnips and swedes
and hay. Taking the United Kingdom
as a whole the total production OF
crops in 1915 was as follows:
