Many Acres of Wheat Abandoned.

1t is painful to note that many
acres of wheat in this county have
been abandoned especially is this the
case in the south part of the county.
Several causes contributed to this
condition. First in localities there
was an excessive rainfall which made
it impossible to get in the fields at
the right time. Secondly, there was a
shortage of help to save the crop.
Last, there were many who put out a
larger acreage than they we're rea-
sonably able to handle under normal
conditions, and the conditions this
season were abnormal in more ways
than one.
1t is too bad that any Of the crop
should be lost at time when the
world so much needs the food sup

received today a reply from Holland
in answer to the council regarding
the reported escape from the island
of Wieringen of the former German
crown prince. The Dutch note, IN

pressed surprise at the warning given
by the council.
The Dutch government, the reply
added, is conscious of its obligations
and must be left free to exercise its
sovereignty as it sees fit.
