tank ran from $50 to 800; averaged
S9O.67, but was let for $50. When the
item of house correction chimneys was
reached there was much wild figuring
shown, which might possibly arise from
several sources. The bids ranged from
$1.60 to as high as $50; averaged s6.7o,

guaranteed that the work would be ac-
ceptably done and in a good and work

Smith was bid in by s. L. Glaspell for
the sum of $500. Lots l and 2, in
block lS, lot 6 IN block II and two
quarter sections. The price obtained
is thought to be about one half
the value Of the property. The
reason that no better prices were Oh
tanned was the knowledge on the part of
intending bidders that a snit was com
menced yesterday by Mr.. GlaspeIl. act
ing for Elizabeth Lloyd, in which it is
claimed that Elizabeth Lloyd, mother
of D. Mex. Lloyd, is owner of half
interest IN the property.
In the sworn statement OF property
owned by him in Stutsman county and
made Sept. -, 1898, William Lloyd says
that the property sold today, ard that to
be sold tomorrow, was his own. 1t is
now alleged that Elizabeth Lloyd owns
a half interest IN some of it and Mrs
Alice k.tcheil Of Connecticut the rest.

Predicts a Good Crop Year.

One OF Ransom county's largest farm
ers. D. Ii. Buttz. as a visitor Friday. He
says the Buttz farm will have an acreage
of 5000 acres this year in wheat. Mr..
Buttz believes this season is going to be
a good crop year, as all the weather in
dicatlons point to wet months in May
and June. The English weather ob
servers have also announced the same
predictions as Hicks and Foster. II
think that this is gong to be a good
crop year for those who seed wheat, and
that the price will be better. There are
100000 bushels less in sight than last
year at this time Farmers who raise a
crop are very likely to get more for it,
and better yield
Mr.. Buttz' experience with flax crop
is Of interest. Last year be threshed
were raised. but busbel at least was
lost in threshing. owing to iDexperience
of threshers Most of the crop was sold
for 99i, cents. and part of it at sl.3o
The flax price is now wholly q manlpu-
lated price, there being at least 81 cents
bushel tackled on to the price by the
oil monopoly that has secured control of
| the fax seed now in the country. By
raising the price OF flax seed they can
raise the price OF oil. The legitimate
price of flax is about 81 a bnshel now.
and Mr.. Buttz thinks the crop will bring
| IS or so cents at least, next season in
Duluth, and states that all the crop is ''in
sight, and is, in control OF the oil men.
| and It is not to exceed 100000 bushels IN
all, from which there will be decrease
for seed purposes. Last year there we're
800, 900 bushels in sight at this time
! The acreage that is gong into tax on
the Buttz farm this year will be II or ii
| hundred acres and with good crop
season expects to get - or Is bushels to
| the acre.
Another advantage in flax is that
horses and cattle eat the STRAW and
| thrive off of it much better than hay."We
haul ont 6 or loads OF this straw day
for our stock" Mr. Buttz says, land they
eat it up clean. leaving hay. 1t is healthy
