From the Lashley farm also comes
an early garden report, Mrs. Lashley
stating that early garden paintings are
showing above ground. In very few
cases has spring garden been put in,
and most are just beginning. The
Lashleys took advantage of a few
hours between rains some time ago.
Beating rains have damaged the
plow land, says Ed Hunt, OF Abingdon
township. "The land is badly run to-
gether," he states, "and turning 1t in
places IS almost like blowing a road.
We do not have very large acreage
to pillow and will get 1t done in time,
but everyone, includin yourselves, are
working late to get through. In some
places 1t Is really too wet to pillow

COLUMBUS, Ohio, April 24.-The
oat and wheat crops are feeling the ef-
fects Of the extremely wet weather
this spring, according to experts at
Ohio State university.
C. ]. willard of the farm crops de-
partment at the university declares
that at the present rate OF growth, the
wheat crop will produce as great an
amount of straw as in 1919. and small
amount of grain.
During the last two weeks wheat has
been making an extremely rapid
growth. especially in central and south
ern Ohio, willard said. Weather con-
ditions have been such as to cause a
very heavy vegetative growth, accord
ing to willard.
The delay in oats seeding which has
been brought by heavy spring rains,
is problem which Ohio farmers may
solve by sowing earlier maturing vari-
eties, says Prof. J. B. Park, head of the
farm crops department.
He suggests as good, varieties the
Sixty Day and Big Four. He recon-
mends specifically that TURNER'S in Gen.
trail and southern Ohio SOW as early
varieties as possible, because of the
earlier hot weather season there.
The depression in the purchasing
power of the farmers dollar during
the last two years has IS stimulated one
class of farmers to bedter, more SCI
entific and more bushes s-like type of
farming, while another class has be-
come discouraged land hs leaving the
farm, according to Dean Alfred Vivian
| of the college of agriculture, Ohio
State university.
"The first class of farmers have
faced the issue squarely.ts' Dean Vivian
continued. 'They are determined to
make farming profitable. They are in
diligently grasping the modern scien
/ tific methods and are ma king FARMING
