Some did not cut their grass until after
the Fourth because the dry season made
a shortscrop. The frequent rains the past
two weeks have been bad for gathering
the hay aud much less favorable for
wheat which was left in shocks until it
could be- threshed.
The rain which fell last Sunday satur-
sated the ground thoroughly. The heavy
rain which fell Tuesday afternoon soaked
it and made ponds where water has not
stood for months. 1t all soaked away by
Wednesday morning. The drought is
o ended. Four inch of water fell.

aattened into powder pulp last Saturday

his shirt out, one hand went between the
rollers and to pull it out the other got in.
With great. effort he pulled both hands
ont after the rollers had made nearly a
whole revolution. Fortunately the top
rollers are held down only by their own
weight or he would have been seriously
injured. His hands were severely bruis-
