BUGHT CAUSES A GERVA1S, Sept. 6 Onion seed growers here are not reap ing the crop it was expected at the beginning of the season. J. S. Harper, who has 'three acres near the Checkerboard, says he will Hot have more than half a crop, due to some blight. How ever, he hinks the blight is caused by the lack of air, as his acreage is at the edge of a tim ber tract, which breaks the crop from the air which furnishes the oxygen so necessary to a full crop and free from blight. Mr. Harper, has a contract for his seeds with a California company. Ttfr. Harper also says that he will have 11 acres In 1931, and that between Gervais and Che ma wa there will be 100 or more acres for the year 1931. A like number of acres in the same area will be planted for onion sets, Mr. Harper says. One carload of onion sets have been shipped out of Gervais this week, mostly from the Blaine Brown farm, east of town. It is estimated that about 10 carloads of sets will be cleared through Gervais this fall. Onion harvest is in full swing also in this section, with a fair crop, but It is said that the mar ket is not very encouraging at this time. Four carloads of wheat were shipped through the Moisan warehouse this week, making five carloads from the local point- within the six day period. CENTRAL HOWELL, Sept. 6 A. E.
