The Harvest

This year such different statements are made as to the wheat harvest that I have some hesitation in writing about it. On marshy ground, I think I am safe in saying, the yield is even poorer than it was last year, i.o., it is about four-tenths of full crop. On non-marshy ground, however, the crops are better than last year. Taking the harvest as a whole it is very much the same as last year. If the shu shu and beans come on well the people should be able to got through the winter all right.
