Pastures are in excellent clon- dltion and livestock is going into the stables in good condition. . Late crops such as sugar beets, tur- nips. mangolds, corn and buckwheat benefited from very favourable growing weather during the fall, and yields were good. The corn-borer was worse than for some years. Farmers generally sowed fall wheat later this fall to avoid the danger of Hessian Fly. Though having less t0p than last year. it is very healthy and goes into the winter in good shape. Prices received for craps are generally less than a year ago, although potatoes and beans are above last year. The total value of the chief crops was $114,- 073,408 for 1932 as compared with $125,- 221,100 for 1931.
