APRIL FLAX HARVEST.
Snow Came Last Fall Before Harvest
Was Finished. So II Is Done Now.

Harvesting fax in April is not just
the usual order of affairs IN a farm in
this part of the world, but that is the
record made in Potter county.
Early SHOWS prevented the harvest
ing last fall. and when the snow which
lay on all winter. had disappeared, and
he field was hard enough to work, it
was found that enough Of the flax was
left in the bolls on the plant to make
it worth while to harvest it. While a
large part of the crop was lost by
shelling, the owner figures that he
made a profit by his April harvest.
While that is the only record OF
harvest of small grain" this spring
in that section. there has geen a large
amount Of corn husked, which was
covered by snow before it could be
gathered last year, and stayed out in
the field all winter.
