Man of Ordinary Size Would Be of
Little Use on This Kansas

this years crop that has been brought
to town so far comes from the farm
of Bert Wise, near Reserve. Wise
has brought several stalks to town
on which the loves. ear is eight feet
from the ground.
People of the community at first
thought Wise was joking when he adj
vertised for corn shockers who must
be at least six feet in height, but
those who have seen his crop declare
that a man of ordinary size will be of
little value n helping take care of
Wises crop, as the stalks are all so
high that the ears are six, seven and
eight feet from the ground

firms, there are several wholesale
produce shippers scattered over the
county, who are sharing the trade to
the eastern markets, Thes firms are
also doing good business.
The increased shipping of poultry
from this county is in all probability
due to the fact that many farms over
the county have added this business
to their regular lines of work, and
are sending large numbers of fowls
to the shipping centers. The wives
OF many countrymen have found that
the raising of poultry has many ad-
vantages, the chief of which is that
OF good sum can be realized from the
sale of eggs and chickens. Butter
has also received the attention of
many in Maury County, and it is con-
t1dently expected that when the
months that regularly do large busi-
ness come again, that the shipments
from this county will be unprecedent-
ed.
