WHEAT CROPS DAMAGED
BY CONTINUOUS RAIN. ANXXETY IN SYDNEY. (Hecelveil 12.30 p.m.) SYDNEY, this day. The position in regard to some wheat areas where rain is falling is becoming increasingly anxious. Not only are harvesting operations delayed, but the grain is its quality adversely affected, and crops tanpW by the wind. Already considerable damage is reported. Another drawback is insufficient storage for damp grain, which country centres have railed to Sydney. It is feared that a shortage of railway rolling stock will adversely delay transport. — (A. and N.Z. table.)
