Sheridan county's best farmers, has
threshed and sold 1000 bushels Of

He also has sowed 800 acres to wheat

in the northwest part Of Sheridan
county.
johnson City Journal: There have
bsen moro hogs fattened in this county
this year than ever before. Our NOR.
chants will need to order little or no
lard or bacon during the next twelve
months. Our farmers all seem TO have
plenty OF everything, and the future
looks very promising.
Arkansas City Traveller: Since the
rain wheat is coming up nicely. This
weather is good for the wheat. and
from appearances now We will have an
other big wheat crop. The bugs will
not bother the wheat unless it be next
spring. A farmer told us that he
sowed wheat in February and harvested
twenty-five bushels to the acre.
Harper Advocate: The late sown
wheat has not come forward as rapidly
as desirable, owing to the lack Of
moisture, but the late rain and warm
weather will materially help it. The
early sown wheat looks fine and affords
abundant pasturaee. We have heard
of few fields of wheat affected by the
fly or some other cause, but not serl-
ously SO far.

lumber for a new house and barn.
The house is to be 1928 feet, with an

every farm in Harper county will have
q comfortable house and good barn to
shelter the stock.

horses, from Michigan. He has some
fine bred horses that he brought here
with him from that state. He now
owns the Thomas Dillon farm south Of
here, and will continue raising and de-
veloping the trotter. Our kite track is
the drawing card for horsemen. They
will always seek a good track on which
to work their horses. and that is just
what Mound Valley can coast OF.
