Wheat harvest is under way. At Geary Grain Elevator the owner / manager Joe Hund said by about 3:30 p.m. Monday between 10 and 20 truck loads of wheat had arrived. "It's hot and dry, and the wheat is maturing quickly now. So far we've seen good quality wheat. It's got a nice red color to it with a good test weight and it's dry. "

There were average 61-62 pound test weights.

The harvest will continue for several days.
