BELLE PLA1NE-I find from investigating
that crops are much better than have been
reporting. Although some pieces of wheat
are rusted and blighted, on the whole they
look finely. There seems to be dispo-
sition among farmers to report more dis
couragingly than is actually the case. Two
weeks of fine weather will bring all in fine
shape.

the warm weather of the past week.

day and Thursday nights lodged few fields

ing now. If weather remains favorable they

SHELDoN-The rye and Larley harvest has
commenced. Flax on some farms Is nearly
ripe and will do TO harvest in few days.
Wheat is out of bloom and filling fast. Rust
is not doing any damage yet, and if dry
weather continues it will be all right. Oats
