recreation.
Mr.. F. F. Fletcher and wife of this

the Masonic Conclave at Chicago and
an extended western tour. From Chi
cago they went to Minneapolis, MIMI,
where Mrs. Fletcher remained while he
and Mr.. Henry Fletcher went west as far
as Dakota, visiting the celebrated Dali
rymple wheat farm. This farm con-
tains 5000 acre wheat field, and har-
vesting was going on during their stay.
The field is divided into sections of $50
acres each, and a gang of men with
reapers and threshing machines are
employed on each section. There is a
set of buildings for each four sections,
where the men and teams are provided
for. Mr.. Dalrymple estimates that he
will get 25 bushels of wheat per acre,
which will amount to Cos, 700 bushels
from this farm. Mr.. Fletcher describes
the scene as:one of great interest.
