farmers will begin harvesting their
wheat crops, and while the yield will not
be large one, it will doubtless he much
larger than was expected few weeks
ago, as the rains Of the past two weeks
have made many thousands of bushels of
wheat.
The annual reunion of Old Drawers
Church Sunday last was not attended by
very large crowd, owing to the stormy
day, although the church was comfort
ably filled in the afteanoon. In the
morning the Rev. Joseph Brown Turner,
Of Dover, preached an able sermon. and
in the afternoon Mr.. J. A. B. Dilworth
o. New York, addressed the congregation

wheat will average two-thirds OF full
crop. In well-tilled lands the early corn
presents good stands, only where the dry
weather affected the tilling are the stands
uneven and unsatisfactory.
