Crop yields and a fatal railroad accident in Hagerstown
The wheat crop yields exceed expectations with many fields producing strong bushel per acre figures while some fly damage is noted. Hay and corn prospects are favorable, signaling a bumper season if weather holds. A Western Maryland railroad freight engine collision near Cowboy injures and kills crew members, including Flagman A D Crim, 34, of Hagerstown, whose funeral is slated at St. John's Episcopal Church.
