injured small grain to such an extent
that 1t could not make a satisfactory
rec0very, but In the state at large the
crop is the heaviest produced for
years. In some localities, where the
stalks Of the grain were stunted by
the hot weather Of July, the farmers
wsre gratiaed to find that the subse-

a that many Of these fields OF stunt
