There i3 much concern felt on ac count of the very poor condition of the present growing crop of .wheat Many farmers are at this time plow ing up their wheat and putting the land to corn and oats and other crop3. ' The shortage of the wheat crop is more serious than for many years, and according to some esti mate the condition and acreage of wheat at this time only equals about 61 per cent of the average of pre ceding years at this date. We might have to dine on hoe cakes the coming years if the condtion of the present are justified by the real yield at the time of harvest.

Large, tough paper bags which can be tightly sealed are the best protec tion for woolens against moths, the agricultural college at Lincoln has found. These bags can be purchased at most large department stores or at cleaners. In case they are not available, the woolens must be so tightly wrapped in paper that moths cannot get to the cloth. Before stor ing clothing in these bags or wrap pings, it is absolutely essential that no moths, eggs, or larvae are in the goods. Hanging the cloths in direct sunlight for several hours and brush ing them thoroly Immediately before storing them away will rid them of the moths and eggs. Moths which are i most common in Nebraska lay their ' eggs from April to September so it is best to store the woolens away in the early part of April. Mothballs, - h cedar shavings, and cedar chests are good repellants but they are not as moth proof as sealed paper bags.

Winter wheat that was seeded late last fall and which made little or no growth before winter weather set in is causing many farmers to wonder.' what the chances are of this wheat making a good crop. In a five year time of seeding test conducted by the agricultural experiment station the average yields for the various dates of seeding were as follows: Septem ber 22, 34 bushels; October 1, 32 bushels; October 15, 25 bushels; No vember 1, 20 bushels; and December 1, 17 bushels. It is probable that much of this late seeded wheat will compare to November 1 or December 1 seeding. So much depends on the weather conditions between now and havest time, however, that it is dif ficult to determine what thi3 wheat will do. It i3 sometime the case that wheat that does not come up in the fall makes a fairly good yield if the weather and soil conditions are favor- Buick Authorized Service comes with your Buick and goes with it no mat ter how many state boundaries you cross- ro Buick Authorized Service is as handy as an extra tire, as near as a telephone ,.. a... sgJfiV SP ij f'j&M Prompt Service and all Work Properly Done by Competent Mechanics.
