VIM Kroeger, one of New Salem's
earliest settlers and assessor Of the
township, was in Mandan on Wed.
nesday, having come down with his
assessment books and blanks. Mr..
Kroeger says that rain is needed in
his section. Talking about crops, Mr..

to him for an exhibit of wheat which
the award says is very good in quail.

The PRESS is willing to concede
that Morton is good county as far
as it goes, but it does not 20 far

a portion of the country west of the
Missouri and received one of the six
Worlds Fair awards for wheat given

extraordinary weight of 64A pounds
