Several Farmers Cut Oats and Put Up Hay Sunday.

Several farmers worked in their fields last Sunday in an endeavor to catch up with their work, which has come all in a bunch this year—corn plowing, haying, wheat and oats harvesting. While many farmers have finished their haying, others were obliged to leave the hay and go in the oats field, so rapidly have the oats ripened. Some few farmers have already ’ finshed cutting their oats and practically all will have done so by the end of the week. Wheat thrashing has begun to some extent, and next week thrashers will start in the oats.
