TAMA COUNTY FARMERS
MAKE MONEY GROWING
WHEAT THIS YEAR

Special to Times Republican.
Toledo, Sept. 21.-Evidently farmers
of Iowa did not know what a great
year this was going to be for wheat
growers. Ninety three dollars an acre
is what G. w. westfall, a farmer living
a few miles east Of Toledo, garnered
from eight acres Of wheat in this
troublous year Of 1917. 1t goes with
out saying that Mr.. Westfall and others
regret they did not have more acres
planted IN, the bread cereal.
Off of six and one-hllf acres w.
Lewis received check for $3.50 Mr..
Lewis lives four miles west of Toledo
His average acre value of product is
s67.
d. P. Berger this year only had two
acres that he cared to plant to wheat,
but he says he got mighty good returns
on 1t. 1t produced SIN bushels per
acre, and as result he is $3.50 richer.
1t is thought that these yields will
stimulate whea. planting to a consi6-
cradle extent However, these farmers
remember that this has been an ideal
year for wheat growing. Cool Gather
has been the rule. and this Is the
weather in which that grain thrives
best.
Now in contrast with the above pres
perity items is the experiences OF w. A.
McAnnulty. a retired farmer who came
10 Toledo over, sixty years ago. In
those times he hauled wheat to Cedar
Rapids with a. double yoke Of oxen,
slept under the wagon and on arrival at
his destination parted with his grain
at So cents a bushel. Old times are
filed with happy recollections for him,
but the farmer OF today is prosperous
beyond Mr. McAnnulty's dreams Of
three score years ago.

Seed From Frosted Stalks Must Be
Carefully Selected and Stored.
Because Of the extreme lateness OF
the crop in northern Iowa. but little
seed had been gathered before the frost
of Sept. 10, and good many farmers
are now selecting seed from damaged
fields.
Frost severe enough to result in the
drying OF the leaves OF the corn plant
often does not materially inture the
ear itself. say the farm crops men. At
iowa State College. Seed OF fairly
good quality can be selected from such
field, but should be stored carefully
and very carefully tested.

Altho these exact conditions may not

That the poor producing COW is COM

That dairymen this year must feed

The average dairy1nan must be sat
