Area farmers are harvesting at a good clip, according to J.E. McCaw, branch manager, Northwest Grain Growers, and are seeing No. 1 test weights, good quality and "quite good" yields. One field north of Waitsburg reported 136 bushels per acre, McCaw said, while the average is in the 90 bushel per acre range.

The Starbuck Community Church will be celebrating 50 years as a Village mission Church this year. Pastor David McIlroy will officiate during a day-long celebration planned for Sunday, August 15.
