Unless something out of the ordinary happens within the next few weeks the famous Lev-a- n Ridge will go down in history as having produced to the farm ers of Nephi and Levan the largest crop ever recorded since dry farming was commenced in 1898. It is estimated that the yield this year will approximate 150 000 bushels, that it is conservative to place the yield at 30 bash-el- s per acre. Conditions have for the never been has There dry farming industry. rainfall been an abundance of and it has come at the opportune time. The precipitation during April was three and one half inches in May and till June the eighth two and one half inches. This amount of rainfall is sufficient to mature this year's crop, and also insures a good yield next year. The harvesting of this bounteous crop will begin about July twentieth and will continue till about August twentieth. . In the face of all this prosperity there is a serious problem confronting the farmers, that of storage of wheat. It is estimated that the local mills can take care of 25,000 bushels and the individual farmers can store about 30,000 bushels, leaving 95,000 bushels uncared for. There is a move on foot to build a. grain elevator at the local depot where from 30,000 to 50,000 b u 8 h e can be properly stored. The question of building an elevator at the Sharp spur, about five miles from Nephi on the Salt Lake Route and in the very heart of the rich dry farming area, is reserious consideration. ceiving ' V DIS- jjOURT suited.
