The Fewer Such Big Farms the Better.

Northwestern Miller
S. A. DalIymple, of the Dalrymp'e Farm
at Casselton, ID. T.. recently said:
I'VE have this year $1,000 acres in wheat
and 1000 acres enough to feed the stock in
off this land, and this year our wheat aver
age fourteen, fifteen, and sixteen bushels to
the acre. Next year we will begin to summer
fallow, letting about 3 900 acres lie idle each
season till it has all had rest. We expect
that after the summer fallowing the yield
will be from twenty to twenty-five bushels
per acre.
'The $4,000 acres are divided into three
farms of nearly equal size. For each of
these there is headquarters, with a super
lntendent bookkeeper, foreman agent aud
other officers. These farms are again divided
into sections of 1000 acres each, under di-
vision foreman, who carries out the orders
from headquarters, transmitted to him by
telephone. Each division has its boarding
heuse, with men cooks In the spring seed
ing about 800 men are employed, and dur
ing the harvest about 600. In the fall ell
the bands are discharged, except sufficient
to attend the 400 or 500 horses aud mules
through the winter. At each headquarters
there is store. upon which the cooks make
requisition for all provisions The whole
thing is go systemstized that we can tell to a
cent the cost of q meals victuals for q man,
and the cost OF seeding. reaplng or plough
ing an acre OF ground. We ship all our
wheat to Duluth, and thence to Buffalo.
where We find the best market. To-day
wheat sells in Buffalo for four cents more.
after the shipping expenses are allowed for,
than at Duluth"
