not likely get under way until the week of july 27th the cur rent weekend will see a fairly large percentage in stook in general the crop is a heavy one true a few fields have been hit by root rot and many others to some extent by rust nevertheless prospects point to a higher than n lrmal yield during the past week we were in some of the heaviest fall wheat crops in our experience in general the heads arc a little shorter than normal but the stands for the most part are thick we an ticipate thai some of the fields en tered in the fifty bushel wheat competition will exceed the fifty bushel
