Lots of Good Com in Benton County.

The editor and family autoed to Remington, Goodland and Fowler Sunday afternoon. The big rain Saturday night extended all through that section. From Goodland south to Fowler there is lots of mighty good corn, most of it already out of the way of frost, and many of the ears are dry and hard, with the husks exposing the ends of the ears, which are well filled out and much better than we expected to see. The poorest corn seen anywhere on the trip was over near Remington, on the range line road. The black ground over in Benton county seems to have stood the drought very well indeed, and there's going to be lots of corn harvested in Benton county this year.
