A n -ALL OF` THE ONTARIO BUREAU OFAG R1- CULTURAL mnnsmms. The following is the substance of the last report of the above agency. It con- - taine matters of interest, and we commend it to the careful attention` of our renders : We have now reached the close of the growing season. It is a tting time to re- view the results of farmoperations for the year; to note the progress made in thresh- ing and marketing grain. and in gathering the fall crops of fruit nnd roots; to give an account of the condition of live stock and the supplies of animal products, the breadth and appearance of the new crop of tall wheat, and the preparetien of land for next spring s seeding. vn... Nnvamhnr Reno:-t of the Bureau of Or to spring's seeding. The November Report Industries deals with these and other sub- jects, the main object kept in view being to narrate facts rather than to draw inferences -- ----....- .\..:..:n-an, Additional Jitatiatica narrate facts ratner man so unsw Iuuucuvua or express opinions. Additional statistics are also given, and the tables published in earlier Reports (having been carefully re- vised with the aid of more complete data) are reproduced. They show in concise foun the extent and results of agriculturvl industry in Ontario this year,--the area of occupied and cleared lands, the acreage and produce of crops, the numbers of live stock, and the values of farm property.` "`|--- A--In and 1-.` Hus nnnnnn IYAVR but 3. stock, and the values or tarm propeny. The early part of the season gave but a faint promise of the rich harvest that has been gathered. April was dry and cold, with raw winds from-the north and east,` and sharp frosts almost every night. `The temperature continued low until late in May. easterly winds prevailing. but with a marked increase in the rainfall. Forest trees were not fully out i-n leaf at the end of that month, and spring grains and grasses showed only a short and sickly growth. The fall. wheat and cloverhad suffered greatly by the alternate freezings and thawinga, and the fruit crop was ruin- ed in the blosson by the conjoined eecta of treat, wind and chilling rains. I)... .. mu.-lmzl nhnnnn mama with the wind and chilling rams. But It marked change came with the month of June. There were warm days and genial showers, and under these inu- ences szrans and grain crops made vigorous growth, steadily improving until they were ready for the mower and reaper. Indeed it is doubtful if better crops all round have ever betore been produced in the country, the only failures worthy of mention being orchard fruits and clover. Some damage and considerable delay were caused in. western counties of the Province by the heavy reins of the wheat harvest season; but compensation was made in the benets to corn, roots"and pastures, which had suf-. - fered by the drought of July. rm... l\nnnt.ifnl imtnre of the harvest has fered by the drought or auny.

Many farmers. however encouraged by crops of the roots and the low price of coarse grains-are buying up second and third class cattle to feed all winter for the spring markets. Hogs are, scarce, but a large percentage of the whole has been shut up for fattening. 1 A fair surplus of sheep and lambs is held` in the inland counties, where there is a growing preference for M. Downs; in the Lake Erie and St.' Lawrence counties drovers buying for the American , markets always keep the supply low.
