The effects of the wet season are plainly seen in the very mixed condition of the grain crops throughout the district (says the Bruce, Otago, Herald). With the exception of a few favoured spots the crops aire much below the average. In the lowlying parts the almost continuous rains in the early part of the season have had the effect ot lotting out the seed completely, and even on the higher ground the crops appear thin and irregular. Smut has also made its appearance in many of the wheat crops. The unfavourable season is .stated to be the cause of this. Certainly the trouble is far more prevalent than is usually the case.
