High Water

The rain fall here Thursday and
Friday of last week was just right
and was badly needed, but it must
have been heavy in the northern
part of the state. On account of a
washout and water over the track
on Locust bottom the north bound
train got no farther than Brown
ing Saturday and no trains were
run on that line Sunday. Traffic
was resumed Monday, however,
with all trains running late. By
Sunday evening the high water
had reached here and Locust bot
tom west of town was covered,
hundreds of acres of fine wheat
and pasturage being inundated.
Just how badly wheat is damaged
can not yet be determined, but it
is thought that some field have
been entirely ruined while others
may yet make a fairly good crop.

Kansas Wheat Crop

Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. A. Jones of
Walnut, Kans., sent in a renewal
of subscription this week accom-
panying it with best wishes to La
clede friends. They are enthu-
siastic about the fine prospects for a
big wheat crop in their locality,
having out 100 acres themselves.
The following clipping from the
Walnut Eagle gives some idea of
what Kansas expects from her
wheat this year:
Kansas has the largest acreage
and the best prospect for a wheat
crop in the history of the state.
Over 10, 100000 acres and it is es
timated the crop will bring over
$500. 100000. The wheat around
Walnut is looking extra good and
some of it is beginning to head
Old settlers say the prospect never
looked better at this time of the
year. The acreage here is large. "
