BONANZA WHEAT FARMS.
Illustrations of the Average Bisness
Of These Fields of Grain.

Illustrations of the Average Bigness
of These Fields of Grain.
It is difficult to present the idea OF the
bipness of these farms to the person
whose preconceiyed notion of farm
is little checkerboard lying upon
hillside or in valley. Seven thou
sa1d acres present the average bonanza
farm. Generally these tracts are not
divides. Yet distances across fields are
so great that horseback communication
is impossible. Crews of workmen iv-
ing at one end of the farm and operat-
ing it may not see the crews in other
corners from seasons end to seasons
end. And in busy seasons it is rather
profitable to feed the hands in the
fields rather than to allow them to
trudge through the hot sun to the din
ing-halls for dinner. The dining-halls
are scattered over the farm at conven-
lent points. They are frequently five
or six miles apart, and many noon
finds the harvesting crew two miles
from it's hall. This illustration may
give some sort of a rough conception Of
the bigness of these farms.
Here is another point of view: Aver
age 20 bushels to the acre-as many
farms will this year-the total number
of bushels in crop on a bononza farm
would be 100000. Putting 500 bushels
of that crop in freight car, and al
lowing 40 feet to the car, the train
which would haul the crop from the
farm would be two miles long, and if
it were to come charging down Fifth
avenue and Broadway in New York, the
"rear-end" brakeman would be craning
his neck from the caboose to catch
sight of the Vanderbilt mansion, while
the engineer and fireman were en-
loving themselves humping the cable
car down by Union square.-Williarn
