According to the same report there
are 1O9,647 acres of wheat to be har-
vested in the county this year, or
about $4,000 more than we're harvest
ed last year. Brookville will harvest
lO,32O, Charlestown 1862, Delhi $40,
Gales 4, 1859, Granite Rock $500, Hon
ner 1,O25, Johnsonville 5,642, Kintire
$40, Lamberton 1872, Morgan 5000,
New Avon $3.50, North Hero 1926,
Paxton 1913, Redwood Falls 5000,
Swedes Forest 1892, Shutdown 6,555,
Sheridan g. 900, Sherman 4 1000, Spring
dale 5,34s, Three Lakes 900, Under
wood 8O8, Vail $3.50, Vesta 2,l95,
Waterbury $50, Willow Lake 6,942
and Westline 1000.
Gross inaccuracies are shown in the
report to the county auditor of both
the yield and acreage for last year and
the acreage for this year. Take the
towns of Delhi, Lamberton, Three
Lakes, Underwood and Waterbury
for instance, and even the most con-
sentative kicker on the boards will
admit a greater yield and a greater
acreage.
The acreage of oats for 1897 accord
ing to the report is 1883, of corn
2s,462, of barley 1880, rye 744, buck
wheat 8, potatoes 1917, beans p, su-
gar cane 10, cultivated hay 891, flax
1870, other produce 267. The total
acreage cultivated in 1897 is 1876, 306.
There are 1888 apple trees growing in
the county this year, of which number
only 507 are bearing. The number of
grape vines bearing is 81. The num-
Der of milch COWS in the county is
1853, of sheep 1913. and the spring
wool cut was 1880 pounds. Only
1894 farms we're reported in the
county, but the towns of Kintire,
Lamberton, Paxton, Three Lakes,
Underwood and Vail failed to report
on that item, and Delhi only reports
7. Only IL new farms we're reported
in the county. Seven creameries are
reported in the county and one nursery
in Springdale. The number of
trees planted on Arbor day, according
to the cratic reports of the assessors
was 80, and the number of acres in
the season Of 1896 we're Al, while the
whole number of acres planted and
growing at this time is 1850. Accord
ing to the reports $40 rods of trees
we're planted on highways, 2l0 being
in Westline, 800 in North Hero, 12O in
Johnsonville, so in Gales and 100 in
Charlestown.
