Harvest Troubles Darken Stewartsville Report
Stewartsville reports a poor harvest with crops damaged by heavy rains and strong winds. Large trees toppled, a roof blown off and carried far, wheat shocks blown down, and fencing leveled. The Fourth of July celebration was muted as farmers worked the fields. A Mt Moriah picnic drew attendees amid harvest efforts. Local joke about washing-machine agents adds light relief.
