Harvest Is Near Seven Close At Ashton
ASHTON July 28 Special This week will probably see the end of the harvest here and it is expected that bundle threshing will start immediately. Those who are using the combines are not through but will not have to look forward to the threshing. The weather continues hot and dry and very dusty, making it difficult for the work to be carried on. The pastures are so dry and the flies so bad that the milk supply has fallen off to a considerable degree. Grasshopper poisoning material has been secured by a number of the farmers and being put out for the pests but the dry weather does not develop successful results.
