Local harvest near finish with bountiful grain
The small grain harvest is practically finished in this vicinity and farmers are very well satisfied with results. Considerable grain is being stacked as rains have aided the crop and boosted yields.
Harvest Festival Planned in Akron After Crop Woes
Reports from twenty years ago note spring wheat yields are slow and light due to blight after heavy rains, making harvesting unprofitable. Oats show a fair yield. Furniture moves into the new Akron Hospital as preparations begin for a Harvest Festival on August 18 and 19. The LeMars to Akron road is among the county’s early routes.
