EXPERIMENTAL FARM, AGASSIZ, B.C. 



THE SEASON. 



The season of 1914 was a good one for crop production. The total rainfall wa.s 

 considerably below that of the previous year, but was more favourably distributed. 

 Seeding operations were begun in good time in April. July and August were very dry, 

 only -75 inches of rain falling in the two months. Heavy rain fell in October and 

 through Xovember, which made the harvesting of roots and corn somewhat more 

 difficult. The winter was very mild; no snow has fallen during the entire year.
