WEATHER IDEAL
FOR WHEAT CROP

Colfax, June 2S.-The weat er re-
mains ideal for wheat crop. The
fall wheat. which was thought to be
very badly Injured by late freezes, has
come out remarkably and bids fair to
equal the spring crop yield A few
days more of this pie ut .weat g: will
injure fine crop of everything in the
line of small grain. Timothy hay is
being harvested in many PLACES now
and IL, too, is of good quality and
is producing heavily. in western
Whitman County the wheat .clop is
turning and in few weeks the Pa
louise harvest will be IL full swing.
Much fear Is being expressed by
mi any prominent farmers thnt they
will be unable to get a sufficient Dum-
Der of men and horses to harvest the
crops in due season. The thing that
concerns them most, however, is tie
enormous price that is heing asked for
sacks, which all must have to ade
quately care for the grain. Prices
are from four to seven cents higher
than ever before on grain sacks and
will cost the farmers in the aggregate
thousands of dollars more than last
year, which at that time seemed to
have reached the limit.
