| Notwithstanding the down.pour of
rain Sunday morning the special services
arranged for at the Presbyterian church
were carried out. The choir rendered
two fine anthems, aside from special
hymns prepared for the occasion. The
evening service was nearly all musical,
the choir using the first part Of the hour,
and the Carollnian Jubilee Singers the
latter half, singing number of sacred
songs frequently given by them in sacred
concerts. Both services were greatly
enjoyed by those who were present
Farmers from the wheat belt Of this
county who came in town last Monday
morning in rubber boots, all report
heavy rain all Saturday night lasting
through Sunday. Fully two and three
fourths inches Of rain fell. While some
loss Is reported among young chickens
and ducks drowning, very little Of the
rain ran of but soaked into the ground.
The average yield Of wheatin our county
could now make twenty bushels to the
acre without another drop Of rain from
now on to harvest. If we get only half
the usual rainfall In May and fir't half Of
June, the average yield Of wheat for
Ford county ought to be twenty five to
twenty. seven bushels per acre. Oats
and barley, of which there is large
increase of previous acreage, will make
bigger crops thar were ever harvested
before. Altogether, people holding
Ford county land are in luck.
