skin to help in a last effort to save his son's life.
Even though the skin graft took and things were

A ride over some of
the roads east of Grand-
view showed water in
ditches at the thorough-
fares, and low lying
fields had plenty of
water, as also did farm
tanks.
Field crops are ready
for harvest, but the
ground is too soggy for
equipment to be moved
in. Several fields of
overdue wheat may re--

the rains stop soon and
the ground dries.
