A Close Guess.

Last week we mentioned that V.
D. Hannah had estimated M. ].
Devers' thirty acres of wheat would
yield seventy-fve bushels per acre.
The crop has since been threshed
and made seventy-three bushels per
acre. When his estimate was
made, the morning before the bind>
er started, Mr.. Hannah was gather
ing samples for the Portland fair,
which he secured wholly from the
edge of the field as it was too thick
to wade through without doing
considerable damage. From the
outside the field looked to be even
and all right but when the binder
started they found several large
blocks badly lodged which pre-
vented it from filling properly and
made it impossible to save it. Had
this not occurred the yield would
undoubtedly have been fully seven
ty-fve bushels per acre. This
would be considered pretty good
crop in any other state than Idaho
and very close guess. However,
Mr.. Hannah says that this is going
to be beaten, SO it is too soon to
laugh yet.
