| Kalipell, May 1.-THE prospects for
good crops were never brighter. The
seed was gotten in the ground early
and the frequent showers have given
| grass and grain such start that its
| growth cannot be retarded. The farm
ers are in the best of humor and they
have ever reason to be happy. 1t Is es-
timated that the acreage under cultiva-
| ton this season is 30 per cent. greater
that that of 1894. The yield last year
was marvellous, but IL nothing changes
| the outlook the crop of 1895 in the
Flathead will be surprising and will at
tract wide attention. great many
! more hogs and blooded stock are shown
on the assessors books this year.
Farmers are also working with much
more care this year, which, with the
natural advantageous conditions OF the
weather, will produce much better re-
| suits. rafr
