Show COLLIHSTON GRAIN. The Wheat Yield is Lighter than Expected. Ex-pected. Monroe Busenbark, a well-known well-known son of the soil of Collinston, was in town, Wednesday. He informs in-forms us that the wheat crop all along from Beaver Dam nearly to Deweyville is kind of a surprise. Everyone looked for heavy crops, but in every case the threshing, which is nearly completed, shows a shortage. 31 r. B. expected 1,400 and got but . 1.000 bushels from lus field. The Buddeu ehnngc in the weather this spring from excess! ve rain to great heat and dryness accounts for the lightness of the crop, no doubt. The vicinity heard from is but a narrow strip between Bear River and the mountain. It is to be hoped that Plymouth threshing, thresh-ing, now in p rogresa, will show better returns. |
