IS bushels to the acre and he threshed
ts95 bushels of macaroni wheat from

place last week Peter Palms threshing
outfit was seriously damaged by fire and
about $500 worth of grain was destroyed.
There was q strong south wind at the
time of the fire and it is a wonder that
more of the grain was not burned. The
separator was damaged to the amount
.5t0f $500 and Mr.. Palm stands the loss on
both machine and grain. The machine
was insured. u
