Large quantities of corn and tomatoes have been delivered at the canning factories during the past few days and the factories are working overtime. This week will practically finish the work. Both corn and tomatoes are a good crop and good quality. The severe frosts of a few days ago somewhat shortened the tomato crop but did not injure the corn.

The continued wet weather is interfering with farming operations and making the harvesting of the buckwheat and corn crops somewhat difficult as the ground is very wet and some of the low land badly flooded.

The Weather bureau reports indicate that August was the driest month for twenty-five years, but September went one better as it was the wettest of thirty-five years. Over six inches of rain falling during the month.

Prince Edward has one of the largest apple crops in its history and the apples are excellent in quality. A visit to some of our apple orchards this week would be a trip worth while. Trees are loaded, hundreds of them having to be propped up to keep them from breaking with their loads of fruit. Just now the market seems to be glutted and there is practically no sale. The barrel supply is exhausted and not enough help is available for picking and packing. The finest winter apples of good varieties can be had at a very reasonable price for home consumption and every town dweller in Prince Edward should lay in a good supply of this healthful fruit thus helping to create a home demand to take care of the surplus. It is a pity that some method of cheap transportation cannot be devised to enable our Western Canadians to share in the bountiful crop of apples in Ontario at reasonable prices.
