At this sudden outfsame of wrath the
two witnesses sank their faces on their
chests, and sat as men crushed. The
Abbot turned his angry eyes away

Some reports of the yield OF
grain are already coming in. S. n.
Dowell's oats made about 81 bush
els per acre. If the crop this year
will average even 80 bushels per
acre there will be large increase
over last year. We believe the
grain is all better by 20 per cent
than last year, for the reason that
farmers have used more Irvine per
acre this year than they did last
year. Some have used as much as
a pounds per acre while 2 and %
is generally an average. w. j.
Blankinship used 4 pounds per acre
on his fall wheat.
