Farmers Not Worried
Ooer Crop Of Corn

Aberdeen Democrat: In these days
Of not weather and worry over the
prospects Of the wheat crop, the MAJ
who has a big acreage of corr is
iubilant because this is ideal corn
weather. And June is pretty regular.
" Just about this sort of a June.
This being the case one would
think that the man who depended
upon the weather to such a great ex.
tent as does the wheat grower, would
grow a crop that suited the kind Of
weather he was bound to expect.
In this country the chances for a
bumper wheat crop are only six out of
every fourteen years. The wheat
grower plays a game in which he
has less than half a chance to win.
There isn't a farmer in Brown coull.
ty who would risk a dollar on a gam
bile Of that kind and vet they con
tinue, some OF them, to stake their
all upon it and then worry and keep
