crop in the southern part of the state
have been somewhat exaggerated, new
ertheless it is apparent that south of
Carroll county the corn is in anything
but good condition. The writer drove
over great part of Crawford, Harri-
son, Shelby and Pottawattamie coun-
ties during the week end and saw
three or four fields, mostly in Har-
rison county, which were absolutely
brown, without sprig of green any
where. In western Pottawattamie and
Harrison the hot winds seems to have
done the most damage. In many
places the first two dozen rows along
the roadside have been burned, but if
one goes into the field a few rods he
finds that the corn will make full
crop otherwise. Many fields which
from roadside view appear to have
been totally destroyed are to be found
in this condition. While they have
suffered heavily, it is believed that
Pottawattamie and Harrison counties
will have at least half a crop Shelby
was not so badly hit, and there is alb
solutely nothing the matter with the
corn in Carroll county. with only very
slight damage in isolated places in
that part of Crawford which was
travelled over"
The most complete blacksmith shop
have found on a Crawford county
farm is on the farm of Ernest Poles
Ike, located about five miles south of
Denis0n. Mr.. Poleske has an equip
ment far better than can be found in
many a small town shop. Judging
from piece of welding l saw him do
ing last week, he knows how to use
the equipment too. He says it saves
him many a trip to town during the
busy season and he alsoffnds time to
repair his machinery OIL the farm
during the slack season, if there is,
such season on the farm. While
visiting the farm took time to give
his Poland China swine another UP
and down. Evidently Mr.. Poleske
understands the feeding game as well
as the breeding OF those choice big
type swine. Many OF his youngsters
are looking as smooth as an, apple. ]
