GREAT WHEAT CROP IN
THE MERIDIAN SECTION

The hot weather has had some eff
feet on the wheat. 1t ripens a little
too fast during the excessive heat,
and while this is all right in the up
lands, in the lower valleys where the
growth has continued, the wheat is
more liable to smut and undeveloped
kernels. In the uplands and dry farm
sections the wheat has reached its
growth and is ready for harvest, and
the hot weather does not injure it.
Cutting OF the bumper grain crop is
/ III full blast in the Meridian section.
The Marquis wheat is the big crop,
but considerable Dicklo wheat is be-
ing raised this year. The Dicklo is
inclined to lay down more, than other
varieties, owing to the length of the
stalk, and is more difficult to cut.
Nevertheless, the great yield of the
Dicklo is an inducement.
The corn is growing rapidly. While
the hot weather is not so good for
some other things, these hot nights
are great for the corn. We can i'm
agine the corn stalks talking this
way: why he heard that Idaho was
too cold for us but this seems juss
like Iowa"
John Cato has started the threshing
of grain. The price for threshing this
year will be &c for oats and sc for
wheat, drop of 1c over last year.

University of Iowa Football team
1920.
Editors Note: Mr.. Devine has
written two articles for you on this
subject The next will describe the
proper method of holding the ball
for passing. and other points.
The purpose of the forward pass
is to make the defensive backfield
play so far away from its line that
it becomes so opened up the often
sive team has chance to gain
yards.
The fact that a forward pass
may come keeps the defensive
men from playing too close to
their line. They know that there is
a chance that when they stay in
close the play may not be smash,
but pass over their heads.
| believe the most effective way
to execute a forward pass is to
catch the ball and start running
with it TO one side, justas if the
play were to be a run. Then, as
the defensive men start toward
you, straighten up and pass the
ball, provided the man who is to
receive the pass has worked his
way into the open.

started up, and Billy was rapidly
taken 10 the depot Here he was
loaded into an expires car. and in q
lew moments more was headed to-
ward France at as swift a pace as
the engine could pull the train. The
express messenger in the car, as
soon as his work was done, lit a
short black pipe and commenced to
tease Billy. Reaching his hand be-
tween the Stats, he suddenly pOked
Billy in the ribs, and Billy, already
nervous from the rapid motion,
jumped straight up off his fOrefeet.
OF course his horns hit the top of
the box and panied him. The man
laughed at the funny motion and
poked the goat again. This time,
Billy, afraid to jump up, merely
danced, and the man laughed aloud,
Again and again he repeated his
trick until the goat was nearly
frantic. Billy tried to burst out tht
side of his cage so that he could
get at the man, but the crate was
too stout for him to do it any dam
age and he only hurt himself by
trying. so after a while he gave it
up.
