punches this week. The trucks are

and are saving dollars worth Of
horse flesh. Not only that, by this
means they are getting their grain
in the shelter in hurry and not
running any chances with the
weather man. The warehouses are
handling the grain IN first class
shape and up to date about forty
cars have been shipped. The rains
have delayed the harvest but very
little gram has been spoiled. The
hardest hit is the beans.
