Short Hay Crop RepOrted-Preparlng
For the Canning of Sugar Corn.
Blackbird, Aug. Farmers of
this section are now harvesting hay
and the crop is reported to be much
shorter than in former years. Many
farmers have sown millet and COW
peas, to be cut for feed later to over
come the great shortage. Others in
tend to cut their wheat stubble fields
early in the autumn, before the frosts
have killed the grass, and will use
this feed instead of hay. Green hay
is selling from $22 to $2S ton from
the fields, which is equal to about $50
a ton after it has become cured and
dry.
An epidemic of hog cholera has
broken out in Blackbird hundred and
many new cases are reported daily.
Several farmers have lost all of their
hogs.
