Premiums for Timber Culture.

In regard to the conditions, require
ments and methods of obtaining the
$3.50 per acre tree bounty, offered by
the state to encourage the growth of
timber on western prairies, it is first
necessary to inform your assessor
of your intention to apply for said
bounty, and it is his duty to make re-
port of the fact to the county auditor.
To be entitled to the bounty the law
requires that applicant must show
that trees were originally planted not
more than eight feet apart each way,
were kept in thrifty growing con-
dition and were maintained at the
distance named by replanting each
year all that may have died during
the year. Bounty is not allowed in
the year of planting, on u. S. tree
claims, and not less than one acre
must be planted. The maximum
acreage on which bounty can be
drawn is ten acres and the limit of
bounty is six years.
Blank forms of application may be
had at the office of the county auditor,
and the application should be made
by July 18th OF each year. In all
cases two freeholders residents of
your town, must attest the statements.
Any kind of forest trees, except black
locust may b. planted. II is neces-
sary to renew applications to secure
bounty, and those who do not comply
with the requirements, by annual APP
plication through auditor and annual
notification to assessor, will not re-
ceiVe the premium for that year,

/ have gathered heads of wheat from
a number of fields and examined them and
find they compare we'll with the average
wheat for the last twelve years, as far as
being well filled, but some fields the wheat
is thin and heads short, others the straw
and heads are good length, a good stand and
well filled. If we should have cool weather
to ripen grain, there will be more than
half crop except on light sandy soil. l
think the present indications are good for
an average of 10 bushels and perhaps IL
bushels per acre. The average yield of
wheat in Minnesota for % years ending in
1891, was little short of Is bushels per acre,
and think Stevens county has not been
-ahaSta- tb -aszaraoa of the ateand if we
should have yield of 10 to IL bushels per
acre we will not be as far below the aver
age as last year, but it is too early to
estimate the yield now, for if this hot dry
weather continues and grain should ripen
as quick as last year, it will cut the yield
down one-half. Some fields of oats are very
heavy, but the majority are light or below
the average. Flax is not as good as farmers
had expected, late sown is failure; corn is
suffering for rain; potatoes are small and
few in a hill, a half crop is all that can be
expected. Unless rain comes soon, other
wise, the crop will be failure as a large
portion of the upland hay is not worth cut
ting, the hay crop will be light, farmers
ought to cut all the hay they can as it may
be needed before grass grows again.
In the town of Morris, G. Sax began cut
ting barley last week, and Bradford Sax
also cut his barley in Rendsville. There
will be wheat ready to harvest this week.

REo1srER OF DEEDS OFFICE


EDITOR SUN:-In your last issue appear
ed resolution in regard to the copies of
plats, passed by the Board of County Com
missioners, and an editorial on said resolu-
tons, which is not true, and is misleading
to the public. This question has two sides
and as you gave one, let me give the public
the other. The county commissioners gave
the contract to D. T. Wheaton for making
copies2of the plats on file and of record in'
my office, for the sum of $1,000. They ac-
cepted the copies of plats, and ON motion
an order was drawn for $4,000 Ito pay the
same), and the plats be filed with the proper
officer. Now, for the filing of plats the law
allows the Register of Deeds two cents for
every in and out lot, which claim, is right,
but, mark you, they do not want to file said
plats; they do not want me to examine and
certify as to whether they are correct copies,
of the originals; they want to place said
plats in the office of Register of Deeds As
copies of record for the use of the public,
without filing, recording, or as certified
copies of the original, the copies would not
be worth the paper they are written on
The public would not, could not use them.
as copies of the original plats, for which
purpose they were made, and would use
when
the copies were properly made, not to use
the originals, except in cases of dispute as
to whether the copies were correct.
THE SUN says, ''The county attorney
will apply for writ of mandamuS, compell
ing me to place the plats on file" 1t is not
necessary, Mr.. Editor, for that is exactly
what want to do-to file the plats You
say the plats are certified copies of the orig
inals now on file They are not certified
to as copies of plats, albums, Worlds Fair
buildings, or anything else. In fact their
use and purpose in the Register of Deeds
office as copies of record, without filing and
certifying to them as correct copies, would
be exactly like placing a chair, table or
horse there. In other counties the Registers
of Deeds compare the copies with the orig
inals, then certifes to each plat before the
commissioners accept them as copies, for
which service he receives from $1.00to $500
for each plat Now, l will compare the
originals and these purported copies, and
certify to each plat iii they are correct) and
it shall not cost Stevens county one cent.
The law says plainly mo Register of Deeds
shall record any conveyance, mortgage, or
other instrument by which any interest in
real estate is or may be in any way affected,
unless the same is duly signed and executed
and acknowledged, according to law"
These purported copies of plats can not be
struggled into my office. Fully believing
| am performing my duties lawfully and to
the best interests of the citizens of Stevens
county, await the decision of the court
