EXCEPTIONAL WHEAT CROP IS REPORTED BY HOLLANSBURG MAN
Fred White living some four miles south of Hollansburg on the Middleboro and Hollansburg pike, tells a wheat story which is a little out of the ordinary this dry, short crop year. In the first' place he used no fertilizer last fall; in the second place, he raised a mighty poor crop of wheat on this same land last season, a crop that was short in output and equally poor as to quality, as he tells it.
And so he set out to even up and took another whirl at wheat last fall. Fertilizer looked pretty high and so he passed it up and let Nature take its course. The result as per machine measure was 243 bushels, making a strong 20 bushel average. Part of the wheat was delivered on Saturday, the balance on last Monday. The elevator man's figures, however, didn't tally with those reported from the machine. He only found 223 bushels, so evidently a mistake had been made somewhere. But 223 bushels from 12 acres of unfertilized land in this year of grace makes a record in itself, especially where wheat followed wheat, as in this instance. With a more favorable season a still larger crop could have been counted on.

MICHIGAN FARMERS URGE LONGER CREDITS LANSING, Mich., July 21. Michigan farmers agree with those of other states in declaring that excessively high freight rates, scanty and nonelastic credit and the collapse of foreign markets are leadina- rpasnna fnr
the farmers' reported financial distress, says the state farm bureau, cit
ing community hearings of the county farm bureaus on the question, "What
is tne matter with the farmers business?" Michigan farmers emphasized the fact that they cannot do business on 30 to 90-day credits when the nature of their investment demands an as
sured crtdit of Bix months to a year or more. Remedies suggested to tne !
congressional commission at Washington included: changes in banking laws and practices which would assure farmers long-time assured credit, a reduction in rail rates, credit to foreign nations needing American agricultural products.. Ninety-three co-operative grain elevators are now affiliated with the
Michigan State Farm Bureau elevator 1 exchange. During June the exchange!
booked for members 327 carloads of grain, hay and beans. The exchange started with 23 elevators in November, 1920. Co-operative associations in Michigan which have pooled wool on their own account are now placing their
fleeces with the state farm bureau for grading and sale, the farm bureau announces. With pooling pomts throughout the state adding 17,000 to 40,000 pounds each to the state pool, the three million pound mark is in sight, according to the farm bureau.
