An abundance of excellent hay has been
secured and on low and bottom lands the
grass continues green enough for late hay
ing. The grass on the ranges west of the
Missouri River was we'll aground curca''
before the frosts, insuring excellent fall
and winter feed for range stock. Thrash
ing and stacking has been somewhat re-
tardcd by rains and windy weather. The
wheat and oats yield did not come up to
expectations, and generally considered the
yield was only fair to good, but the quality
good to very good in most localities. The
recent rains have served 10 put the soil in
