Twelve cents is being received, but
this is higher than the price paid at
this time last year and it is entirely

be expected later on.
The first of the 1918 wheat was
brought in on Friday, when Edward
Elkef hauled some of his own wheat
and some for his neighbor; George
Wolf. The figure paid is six cents
more than that given for months
past for the 1917 crop is not based
on much else than mere rumors con-
cernlng the probable rise in the ad-

Larkln Bucher and Charles Toot
are also among the farmers who are
haullng wheat to-day and taking no
chances. The selling of grain imme-
diately after it is threshed is a policy
followed by many who say that losses
IN shrinkage make up for any small
gains in price. Reports from all over

wheat yield. Conditions for harvest

MarysviIIe, Pa, July 8. Perry
county farmers have not escaped the
acute labor shortage that has been
visited upon farmers of other coun-
ties and various means are being
adopted by the tillers of the soil to
harvest their crops with the highest
degree of efficiency. Farmers are
having difficult times to compete
with munition plants in wage scales.
One plan being largely followed out
in the rural sections of the county is
that of several farmers working to-
gether. On one day the party will
work in the fields of one member
and the following day in those of an
other. In this way they are able,
they say, to accomplish more than if
the one man. with his single team,
was to work his fields alone.
