A trip through the northwestern sec.
ton of the county Monday revealed the
fact that nearly all of the grain haC
been cut. Here and there could be
seen a few scattering fields of wheat
but the harvesters were at work in
them and by the time this paper went
to press these isolated fields had un
doubtedly fallen prey to the reaper A
few late fields of flax were also seer
and nearly all of these will not be ready
for cutting for about two weeks yet
There was quite large amount o
shocking to be done and only a few
fields showed grain stacks. Threshers
started threshing from the shock Mon
day morning. The yields, so far a:
heard from, were from 10 to 20 bushels
Of wheat per acre, with the most ot
them from II to Is bushels. Oats arr
turning out heavy. Corn has been in
jured by the hot winds of last and thi
week.
