D., Aug. 8.—Crop ex- perts who have been studying the situation in Stark and adjoining counties closely during the past two weeks reckon that the wheat yield will be approximately 40 per cent below the 1924 average. This esti- mate is based on a county wide sur- vey. In‘some communities the ration will be higher and in others, much lower. Winter rye, barley and oats are light. There are, of course, some fields that will prove exceptions but these are few and far between. Rye threshing will begin early the coming week. A few isolated fields have al- ready been threshed in the Dickinson territory according to farmers who have visited the city this week but no yields were available. A soaking rain is needed to bring great fields of flax and corn through to’ maturity, in the opinion of C. C. Eastgate, district extension agent, and farmers of the Dickinson -com- munity.: Both crops, _ representing record acreages, are suffering from the lack.of rain and unless moisture comes soon, the yield--will-be far short of that predicted tef’days ago when these crops were at their best. with | | | | ided whether he | | | | | “| i | MOVIES?
