The early spring was a little back- ward, but the warm days of thy last week have pushed vegetation ahead until it has reached the normal stage. “Through Nebraska and Kansas the winter wheat crop has ~ome through the winter in perfect condition and while the harvest Is a long wey off, indications at this time point to a perfect crop. My Judgment Is that in Knnaas the acreage s slightly less than last year. In Ne- braska I think it 's fvily as great, with perhaps a little more sown than s year ago.” TAKES IN STRANGER WHO TAKES HIM IN; ARRESTED R. W.
