These large acreage figures were disappointing part of the bureau ami caused the decline at first. Considering the importance of the atnrt of a crop, this r na tion figure Is very bullish, and those that ive come to the conclusKA to stick to the ill side, on the ground that the const*- tellers of tills bail start can not be over, une. have the advantage of previous nice.

"The Mani toba Agriculture College advlaed the farm ers to continue seeding until the beginning of June, ns tho exceedingly favorable con ditions existing now will rush the growth. We are having an abuudnnce of nunsbliie and Intermittent showers, which create con ditions that make up for tho lateness of spring. As much wheat will bo sown as Inst year In this vicinity and porlmps more, ami I should Judge from iny recent trip between hero and Winnipeg that a { rout deal more will be under wheat than e ret of ore. In winter wheat there will doubtless be a big Inerense.
