Farmers Behind With Work.
1 On account of the excessive wet
weather that has prevailed since
the beginning of the year, the far
mers are farther behind with their
crops than for many seasons past.
In all, not more than a week’s
ploughing has been done this sea
: son towards preparing the soil
and
the most of this was done when
the land was too wet and will have
to be done over again.
1 he crops of wheat and oats are
exceedingly fine—the best in this
county in years.
