Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 22, Number 81, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 28 June 1901 — Best Field of Wheat. [ARTICLE]

Best Field of Wheat.

James Yeoman has 10 acres of the best looking wheat ever grown in Jasper county, at his farm west of town. He purchased the seed wheat in Canada and an examination of the field makes Mr. Yeoman confident that it will bear 40 bushels or more to the acre. The straw is large and strong and it has remained straight during the entire period of its growth, whereas some other varieties of wheat in the same field has been badly beaten down. It will probably be ready to cut Saturday of this week.
