COMES WITH RAIN
LATAH COUNTY FARMER MAY EXPECT TO HARVEST HIS AVERAGE PROFITABLE CROP
The heart of the Latah county farmer was made glad at an early hour this morning when he heard the sound of rain drops on his roof. In fact, the sound of the rain drops made glad the heart of the business man, as well as of the farmer, as a good grain crop in the Palouse country is just as important to one as to the other. Rain commenced to fall about 3 o'clock this morning, continuing for more than an hour, and being followed by light showers this forenoon with heavy clouds which indicate further precipitation.
While rain and warm weather will work wonders in the Palouse country wheat fields in a very short time, the cold dry weather has held the crop back and there has been for some days a feeling of uneasiness for fear that rain might not come until too late. This feeling, however, was not shared by the men who have farmed in the Palouse country for years, and who have never seen a failure.
