Continued Rains Dishearten
Farmers of York County

DilIsbhrg, Pa, July 23.-Farmers
in the upper-end of York county
are disheartened over the contin-
uous rainfall of the past ten days.
Heavy loss will be sustained, it is
said. In instances where wheat had
been cut and sheaved, the grain is
said to be sprouting. Farmers. who
had difficulty. or were unable to Sc
cure farm labor over the harvest
ing season, will probably sustain
the greatest loss. Destruction of the
potato crop, which bids fare to be
a bumper one in this section of the
country, is now threatened. One
farmer said that unless the rain
soon ceases. his entire tuber crop
will decay in the ground.

game native to this section, hunting
up until about three years ago when
he had to give up the trail on ac-
count of failing sight He was a
crack shot and a good fellow. He
attributed his long life to the fact
that he never hurried at meals, ate
only wholesome food and was tenn
perate in all things.
John j. Gantz was born at Hope
Furnace, this county, in November.
1924. He was twice married, both
wives having preceded him to the

daughters also survive-Mrs. Grant

record for hunting. For at least so
years he followed the trail every
