"While Wisconsin farmers are well
| accustomed to the harvesting of good
crops they perhaps have never, on the
whole, harvested larger or better yields
than during the present season" says
Dean Harry L. Russell, who for the
purpose of visiting the several branch
stations and experimental and demon
stration farms of the College OF Agri-
culture of the university of Wisconsin,
| lately made an extended trip through
the state.
"Of1icials of the government crop re-
porting bureau" observed Mr.. Russell,
'have recently estimated crop condi-
| tons for the entire country at about
| 10 per cent below the average of recent
years, but | am convinced that reports
from the various sections of Wisconsin
would even average considerably above
| the normal for this state and that, in
most instances, has generally been sat
isfactory. While other of the middle
western states have been drought
stricken this summer the rainfall in
Wisconsin has been greater than usual
and its distribution has been quite gen.
eral.
81 feel satisfied that the Wisconsin
farmer will be better paid for his pro-
duce and products this season than at
any time in recent years. The crop
| yields of several Of the other great food
producing states have been materially
diminished the droughts with which
they have been afflicted for long contin-
ued periods. This diminishing of the
supply will most assuredly influence
market prices
