Active preparations are now being
made for the rapidly approaching har-
vest. Farmers are getting their ma
chinery ready for work, laying in
stores of groceries sufficient for the
busy season and in very short time
harvest work will be in progress all
over the county.
The spring here as elsewhere was
backward but the weather since then
has been exceedingly favorable and
crops throughout the county look
well. Farmers are not expecting fabu-
lous yield of from % to 80 bushels per
acre but good average, comfortable
crop of from IL to 20 bushels per acre.
Every farmer should make it point
to raise something for exhibition at
the fair this coming fall. No matter
how trifiing it may be, if it is extra
good 1t will interest some one. If you
can not show a fine colt, or heifer or
pig, then take some fine potatoes,
pumpkins or other farm products and
give the manner of raising them.
