By the time this issue Of tie Rerald
reaches it's readers harvest Will be
thing OF the past with rs. All the
grain will be cut AID misty all
stacked, and, as . German proverb
says. The wind will blow over the
stubbles''. Being in tho village Of
Pierz one may look in any direction
he pleas:s and $50 stubble fields and
here and there a setting of grain
stacks. Soon the plow will be draw
ing it's black burrows over the golden
stubble fields and they will appear
dark and dreary, and we begin to
realize that fall is in front of the
door, Almost I'll of our farmers
were at work from Is to 16 hours
every DAY during the last few weeks.
It was hard for both man and beast,
but harvest was finished. As to the
yield Of wheat, the opinions differ just
as much as they did four or i've weeks
ago. Some say good, some cay mid
ding and some say poor. We have
interviewed few of our farmers IN d
here is what they have to say:
Magnus Rauch, one mile south = est
of Pierz, tells the reporter that his
grain 10 not the best. The yield Of
wheat is uncertaio, but he thinks he
will get between IL to IL bushels per
acre. Rye is good. Oats poor. from
20 to 80 bu.. per acre. Corn never
was better. and will yield big if early
frost does not come.
Gerh. Terhaar, south of the village,
is done cutting except small piece
of oats. He says his grain is not
very good. He does not expect over
10 bu. OF wheat per acre, many Of
the stalks are broken BY the wind
and the ears are on the ground and
the binder cuts them Of and they
stay there.
Theo. Thielen says that wheat is
very light ON his two farme in the
northwest corner of Buh town and
will not yield over 10 bu. to the acre.
Oats will not yield over Is bu: per
acre. The grain is all cut.
VIM. Leidenfrost of Agram Gays he
is we'll pleased. He has cut wheat
tat viii yield KS bushels to the acre.
but he has some that is roor. He is !
satisfied that the total yield will be !
good. Oats will be fair. he has cat !
all his grain and is stacking.
Henry Larger says he is done cut.
ing and is now stacking. He claims
his wheat will yield Is bu. to tie
acre, bundles are heavy. Oats and
barley are not very good.
N. Angermeier, three miles east of
Pierz, says he is through cutting. He
has six acres of new breaking that
will yield at least 26 bu. of wheat to
the acre. On old land wheat is fair.
Oats is not very eood:--He. II. done
