Corn Grows So Fast and Rains So

Frequent Much of it Not Cultivated

Last Time—Oats Cutting Starts in

Week—Crop is Short—Hay Yield

•elow Average.

With June rains and a July tempera­ture, the last ten days has done wonders to the corn flelda of the county, has benefited other crops and fruita, .but the rains came too late to he of material help to early out*, timothy and clover. Most of the corn llelda are laid by, some without the usual number of cultivations and the crop as a whole is at least up to the average for this date and may be a little better than usual*

This, in general, summarises the local rrop condition Us *een by Countjr Agent W, A. Buchanan In his trlpa over the county in the last week. Except for a rather light oat crop and a small hay crop other crop conditions are excellent.

Corn Fields Booming. The heavy rains, frequent ehower*

and normal temperature have 1 kept the corn fields booming for ten days and the growth has been abnormal even for corn. Some few fields ap­pear spotted, some are very clean or fairly free of weeds but more of them were net cultivated the last time and l good 'many are .weedy. Crab grass is more than ordlnariiy abundant. The reason is that be­cause of the rains and the rapid growth of the corn farmers have not been able to get cultivators into the fields, and now the corn is too tall. However, the rapid growth of the corn, has tended to hold back weeds by shading them and has conserved moisture.

Oats Crop Past Help, Moat of the early oats was too

far along to be helped by the first heavy rains of last week. Some few Holds that were hot bo far advanced have been helped by the heads filling better, but tm a whole the early oats straw vMl be short and the yield light. Some fields are too short to cut with a binder. Others are quite heavy and the yield will depend somewhat on whether heavy winds or rains beat down ths stand. Cutting; will begin in a week to ten days.

Late oats waf helped more by the rains thf n the earlier aeediags. Quito a good many of these fields have been materially aided especially as to length haada and bstter filled grftlp pods. This crop, iiowever, also will be short.

Hay Crop te Short. : s Th® prolonged dry spell of June

hindered the hay, both timothy and etover, to such an extent that the crop will be light. Haying has been in progress for a week or a little tlonger and much of It that was down has been seriously damaged by the frequent showers that fell upon it beforft it was cured and stacked.

Pastures of all kinds have been greatly helped and have grown green m in early June.

The ruins have greatly aided ail garden products, especially potatoes, late bush and tree fruits, Including even some late stawberries, cherries, currants, raspberries and blackber­ries.

AMERICAN LEGION MAKES EF­

FAILING IN THIS SHOW

Moofce Exhibition Arranged for July

26, With Smell Hope of Esrlier

Showing—Secure Grounds on 8outh

Side But Cost of Lighting Almost

Prohibitive—Await Word.

Efforts of the American Legion and the Moose lodge to effect a com­promise of the carnival eeafllct, which brings two amusemeat eem-panliss to this city the same week, were attended wlt^ ill-success up to noon, today, principally because ho word had been roqelv^d from the amusement concernj as to change of dates. ;

To prevent a competitive bid for patronage, the Amq/lcan Legion com­mittee announced that an effort would be made to bring the Brund-she Shows here the week of July 19, and that the company had been wired asking for a change of dating. As no word has yet come from the Brund* age Shows here the week of July 19. whether a change pan be mads in bookings. The legitui has obtained tho fair grounds fdr Its show and hopes to change dates so that the Moose show may opoupy the same grounds. .

Moose Face Hfrd Problem, • II both shows are to be offered the

public the same week the Moose face a difficult situation by being unable to necure grounds on a street ear line or within easy walking distance of the business dlstriot. it was said.

Lots along South Centef street/had been obtained by the Moose, it was said, but the oost pt extending an electric line to the grounds wjw so greM; as to make the site almost out of the question.

If a * change in date ©an not be secured by the American Legion it Is almost a pertainty that the plans for the Brundage Shows to exhibit at the fair grounds the week of July 2« will carry thru. This will leave the Moose the choice of. switching the date of the Frisco Exhibition or showing at some other place than the fair grounds. .. .
