Hie Farm and the Farmer BY WILLIAM R. SANBORN

According to J. F. Seagraves, of the Losantsville elevator, nearly half as much wheat was cut on Friday as had

been cut previously this season. "It was an all-day session," said he. "Some wheat was cut on Monday and a little on Thursday afternoon, but Friday was a real harvest day." Mr. Seagraves says that while a lot of wheat is "thin" the heads are well filled; it has ripened fully and the quality of wheat will be excellent. Oats have "wonderfully improved" in past two weeks and corn couldn't look better. "Two or three more days of sunshine will see our harvests completed, or say, by Tuesday night," It was thought until lately that oat3 would head too short for the binders,

anU that much of the crop would be cut for hay. "Most of the oats "will now bo threshed. We are late in our haying and these operations will delay wheat threshing for a few days." Buying More Binder Twine. John W. Noakes, of the Equity levator At New P&ris, makes a moBt encouraging crop report. He Bays that farmers underestimated their wheat when ordering twine and many have come back for more to finish binding. Ho says the wheat has filled well, and is of fine quality, and that there is much more of it than expected. The heavy shower on Thursday evening did not prevent harvesting on Friday, which proved the banner day. Oats are coming fast and prospects are fine. Should begin cutting in 10 days, depending on weather. "Wheat should all be safe

in shock not later than next Wednesday, if rain holds off." Beet Oat Crop In Years.

The cashier of the Randolph county bank, at Winchester, predicts the "best oat crop in years." He stated on

Friday evening that about half of thei i . - j i i. - r v l '

nuctii uuy nan ill cuucn., yuaBiUijr little more, Friday being an ideal day for harvesting. Too much rain has fallen in past two weeks to suit harvesters, either of grain or hay. "Cora is in splendid condition and making up for lost time." Brownsville Farmers Busy. The elevator at Brownsville, Ind., reports harvest delayed by rain and vtated Friday evening would see a little better than half the wheat cut, Friday being their best harvest day. Oats are promising and corn doing well in clean fields. Haft Good Seed Wheat , County Agent Murphy states -that Dan Smith, living 2V4 miles northeast of Hagerstown, has just cut a Tleld of wheat which was free of cockle, smut

or other injurious elements, and that

it is "smooth grain of seed wheat quality." Coal and Fertilizer
