DROUTH DAMAGING LATE SOWN WHEAT MAROA Dry weather the last two weeks is damaging the late sown wheat to some extent All fields have a brown cast, but the earlier wheat has not been injured, although rain is badly needed. The plant apparently is well rooted, but either snow or rain would be beneficial. There has been no general movement of corn the last 30 days although the roads are in fine condition.

A great many farmers would like to get their corn to market while the roads are good, but they are not inclined to sell at present prices. Work on the farms has been light since corn husking. There has been some frost in the ground so that no plowing could be done. There have been only a few farm sales in the community the last season so that the March 1 transfers will he light. A number ot landlords will change tenants in the spring.
