It was not an unusual . . tire hut In summation of the dam age. new reports noted that fifty . to sixty thousand bushels of highs grade wheat and six box cars on the elding by the mill were completely burned Farmers who have sweated through a long harvest season can appreciate what the loss of fifty or sixty thousand hitsheU of wheat means In teims of labor and productive effort. They will recall the arduous task of getting the ground ready for planting; the anxious waiting lo see whether the crop would be good or bad; the worry Ing over obtaining crews and getUng equipment in shape for the tough job of mowing, thrashing, hauling—and again, anxiety as the rain clouds of fail loomed closer with each imsslng hour. Yes, farmers can appreciate the loss when a great quantity nf grain is destroyed by fire. InsSrance cannot restore the bodily energy that goes Into a season's work' on h farm, any more than It can restore the food lost.
