Dr. Turfler Will Have 50 Acres of Good Onions.
Dr. Turfler seems to have come out of the floods of two weeks ago better than any other Oriion grower in this part of Indiana and believes that he has 50 acres of onions that were not seriously damaged by the high waters. On the river farm 4 miles north of town he lost about 6 acres but there are thirty acres that are not damaged seriously, while he also has twenty acres in Walker township that are in good condition. Harry Gifford, of Barkley township, has ten acres of good onions and Emmet Hollingsworth has some good ones, especially are his set onions fine and it is expected that he will get about 1,200 bushels of the sets and that they will bring $1.50 or more per bushel. x B.i .Forsythe saved only about an acre from all he had planted. Bad reports continue to come from Newland and Springer ranch fields where probably 2,500 acres had been cultivated.
