What under other circumstances
would have been large yield of oats, is
likely to shrink to small proportions
through unfavorable weather conditions,
and farmers are experiencing the most
difficult task in many years in harvest
ing the crops. Almost the entire crop is
in shock and has been exposed to violent
and incessant rains during the past ten
days or two weeks. There has not been
sufficient sun to properly dry the sheaves
and the oats are beginning to grow IN the
shock, while uncut fields are in many III
stances fiat on the ground and scarcely
worth harvesting.
