error the words Maine Benefit ap-
peared in the headlines of the Boston
dispatch published in our issue of yes

pointment of Temporary receivers for

The howl of calamity is not heard in
the wheat belt these days. The merry
swish of the scythe as it cuts down the
ripe grain and the contented song of
the farmer as he gathers in his rich
golden harvest browns all other sounds.
Minnesota has fallen into line with
the other wheat-raising states, and
the crop this year will be such as to
make a pessimist a rarity. At least
$25,500, 900 is a conservative estimate Of
the value of the wheat of that state
alone.
The heavy rains which have fallen
recently have had distressing effect
on a few of the farms, but though the
yield per acre may not be so large as
last year, the increased acreage will
bring the total up above the average.
Reports from all over the wheat-rais-
ing section indicate that conditions are
practically the same everywhere.
