pretty good rock that he had chipped

In Logan Thursday. In speaking of
the recent storm he said that IL was

OF the beets show tendency to rot.

storm did great deal of good as well
as harm. For instance the ground is
put in ideal condition for fall blowing,

water to mature them, and on the dry
farms the third crop of lucern will be
matured. Mr.. Vaughan suggests that

mix the bad with the good wheat, the
losses will be far less than otherwise.
