wheat sowing. Many fields over the
county are being prepared with

be sown this fall. The wheat indus
try has been short in Dyer county

will produce an excellent yield.
Seed wheat is So bushel and is
hard to find at that price, due to the
fact that there were very few fields
of first-class wheat grown this year.
