Bright Prospects For
Bountiful Harvest
Haying has been completed by
the fawners in this district and
many are already well aheadwith
the wheat harvest, and when
one drives, through the country
these days and is attracted lay
the beauty of the risppling seas of
golden grain, It seems almost a
pity that it has to be cut, but in
this case beauty must be sacrificed
to necessity. The harvest this year
acocrding to the farmers, at present
Look bounH&ful indeed.
COURT DUTY ONLY
Word that county constables were
again being sworn in without their
knowledge or consent brought the
newly formed county police commis-
sions into special session. It was
explained that most of the new
officers appointed are for court
duty only. The oommittee bas just
been instrumental in heeling 80
county constables dismissed and the
appointment of a salaried force 'in
an effort to eliminate the much
abused fee system. It was made
clear that no mondes• would be paid
to constables whose appointment
was not eutlhorizel by the com-
mittee.
