„ MELBOURNE, This Day. ’ Tiie Commonwealth Meteorologist, in a review of the prospects of the grain harvest, says the total'yield in Queensland will not exceed half a million bushels. The grain is good and seed supplies are assured for next year. The outlook in South Australia has been improved by good rains, Tlie Victorian crops generally are looking well and good returns are anticipated. In West Australia :gdo3 rains maintained the early promise of an excellent yield and the crops should be a record.
In many districts in New South Wales good yields from early sown crops are practically assured, but late crops are backward, thin, and weedy, and require good rains and cool weather for satisfactory returns.
