There has more rain fallen here
during the month of May than in
two previous years. A large spring
crop planted and the ground keeps

fields.
Grass never was better at this time
of the year. Cattle b a t went
through the winter on straw feed, are
doing fine. In this, immediate local
ity, the wheat dried out during the
winter, hence the crop will be light.
A large acreage OF oats being sown
which look fine and promise a large
yield. There are quite a number Of
good residences being built in this
country evidence OF prosperity.
There has changed hands a Number
OF farms during the last winter and
