GIVES WHEAT FIELD TO THE FLAMES
HARDLY A GRAIN CAN BE FOUND
AND THE STALKS AND EMPTY
HEADS WILL BE BURNED.

The frequent and heavy rains this
spring have been disastrous to the
wheat crop, and although the acre
age in Terrell county is larger than
ever before the yield will be very
small
In some fields the crop is total
failure Mr. l. W. Mask of the Elev-
enth district, in which community a
number of farmers have not bought
any flour in several years, having
raised enough for use on their
farms and some to sell besides, while
in The News office Thursday stated
he had three acres of wheat which
appeared to be unusually fine that
turned out to be complete failure.
The stalks were four feet high and
the heads looked especially large and
heavy, but when it was harvested
not a grain of wheat could be found.
1t is absolutely worthless, and will
be burned in the field to be gotten
rid of Mr.. Mask said that he has
another field which was planted
three weeks earlier that has produce
ed some wheat, but nothing like an
average yield.
The rains have caused the wheat
to rust and otherwise damaged it in
all sections of the county.
