The reports on the hay crop from
northern Wisconsin seems to conflict
greatly. Some reports say that the
crop is taller and thicker than ever
before, while others tell of a shortage.
In Wood county it is said by those
most likely to know that the yield
will probably be about an average
one, barring any future damage, and
on the, whole it can be relied on that
the price per ton will show very little
increase over what it has been each

There is great deal Of complaint
this summer about the rural roads.
