they have been, and the majority OF the
farmers here are compelled to pay from
S35 to S45 a month, with board, and IN
almost every case they are compelled
to keep horse for each man. win
the present high price Of grain, the
boarding Of horses costs considerable.
The sugar corn Gamers have not as
vet made any offer to the farmers at
and near Middletown, but it is SAID that
at Odessa one firm has contracted with
few farmers at S22. so ton. 1t IS
doubtful if any will be grown here at
that price, as the field varieties OF corn
will at the present price pay a much
larger return per acre.
Milk has been one of the greatest
helps to the farmers here during the
past year, and the farmers are one and
all trying their hardest to produce as
much of it as possible, and gre; Improve
ment has been made in the cattle here
during the past year or so. The recelv-
ing stations are now paying about $3.5
per 100 pounds, which amounts to about
l.! cents quart.
The present prospects for crop OF
wheat are the poorest known here for
manv wears. The wheat was sowed
ate, owing to rainy weather and labor
shortage, and the cold weather came on
sooner than usual. The wheat came up
shln on the ground and has not yet re-
covered. Some of the older farmers
claim that the crop may yet come out
and produce fairly well. but the chances
are against it.
