RAIN DAMAGES CROP.
Farmers Have Been Unable to Guilt
vate Corn Fields.

Farmers saw that as result of the
frequent heavy rains for more than a
month past, a good deal .of the wheat
is in bad condition. There have been
but few DAYS since harvest when the
condition of the weather would admit
of threshiug. and:meanwhile much of
the wheat in shocks and stacks in the
field have gone through the "heat"
and sDrouted. There are some fields
of six feet tall corn in tins section that
have not had cultivation of any kind
since the soil was prepared for plant
ing in the spring. while there are
Others which have been only "sided"
aud thinned. This is because the
ground has been entirely too wet to
admit of blowing or other work.
