be about $40 per acre. As he is half
owner Of 1900 acroS of wheat IN thu
Red River Vallay, aud has l,50O acres
on his home farm at Cottage Grove,

safely put down at $4,000. Mr..

age Of 1000 bushels per day. The
grain is hauled directly to the
cars as fast as thrashed. and
shipped 10 New York via Duluth
and the lakes. He loads and forwards
fifteen cars each day. At $50 bushels
to the car, the crop of this place will
make 257 carloads. The yield, from
what has been lhrashed go far, is esti-
mated at 10000 bushels-an average Of
22J6 bushels per acre. Add TO this 35,.
600 on the Grandin farm, In which Mr..
Dalrymple hes q half interest, and
which will average equally well, the
two farms will produce l6S,750 BUSH

lections were large, and proved of q
satisfactory character, our merchants
meeting their engagements promptly,
though the general conditions OF
finances are Wofully behind their usual
state at this season Of the year. On
the street the earlier portions Of the
day bid fair to sum up large salcs by
the merchants generally. Towards
the afternoon, however, matters as
sumed more quiet tone, country
wagons left for their respective homes,
when business affairs reverted back to
their old-time activity. Possibly a
week or so more may so improve mat

even o few hours labor at night
will be found necessary 10 fill the re-
