A severe electrical storm accom-.
panied by a heavy downpour of

Drs. Briley and Shinnick, ac-
companied by DR.. Campbell of

The extreme hot weather of the
past three weeks, while it has cut
the grain yield down greatly below
what it would have been had cooler
weather prevailed, will hardly
prove as disasterous as was at first
believed. 1t was thought at first
that the yield would be cut fully
one.half but this is hardly believed
to be the case at present. Spring
wheat has been injured most and
fall wheat has not filled as plump
as it should have and barley and
oats have suffered also from the
heat. From present indications
the yield will average well with
other years hut had The hot wealth
er came few weeks later the yield
this year would have broken all
previous records.
