SEAOF GOLDEN GRAIN
TRAVELLER DESCRIBES HIS M
PRESTON OF CROP PROS
Poets
BEST YIELD IN MANY YEARS
Farmers Are Everywhere JubiIant,
and Only Anxiety Is scarcity
of Harvest and Thresh-
Ing Hands.

Despite occasional reports to the con-
trary, travellers say that crop conditions
in Illinois and Wisconsin, and in fact in
every state that goes to make up the
great Middle and Northwest, in their
opinion, are the best they have seen in
years.
With that class of travellers who min
gle daily with the farmer in the sale of
small wares, the crops" is of necessity
their principal topic of conversation, and
consequently no one is better fitted to
talk actual conditions than these drum
mers.
Said one OF this class yesterday:
Daily contact with the farmer and
my own observations have equipped me
with knowledge sufficient to know that
the crops this year in Illinois and Wis
consin, and IN fact all over the great
Northwest, are, the best this country
has seen in some years.
This condition Of affairs is, as a rule,
general, though there may be some spots
where drought mas had the effect of thin
ming the corn. In these places the corn
crop does not stand as high, and the ear
is perhaps not quite as large as in other
sections, but the quality, despite these
fa.iings, is good. In these same localities
1 find the small grains also suffering
from stunted growth, but for all this the
heads are well filed.
As you prOD3Dly KNOW, crops III the
Dakotas this year must be looked on
in the light of a record breaker. This is
no exaggerated statement.
Waving fields of golden grain greet the
eye for miles. No pen can describe the
sight which in magnitude and beauty
surpasses anything that an artist has ever
painted Some of the fields are miles in
extent and their unbroken surface is a
revelation to the tenderfoot.
The Dakotas are naturally the Mecca
of the harvest hand, and just now he is
an indispensable article, receiving daily
wage from $3.50 to 49, In some localities
I was told as high as 81 a day was being
paid, though l believe this was a little
overdrawn.
THE cry for men has drawn thousands
of never do-wells into the Northwest, and
many of them unblushingly demand from
20 to IS before they will work. The re-
suit is generally that they are willing
TO accept 81.
with a big crop on hand, the demand
for threshing and harvesting outfits is
heavy. and the agents for the several
companies now catering to that line
Of business are likewise reaping a har-
7est. The sale of these machines will
." double that of last year
"I'he general crop prosperity now pre-
"a ling, While putting money into the
pockets Of the farmers. cannot but aid
the future Of the great Northwest. 1t
Means decided impetus to immigration
md the populating of sections now bar
'en i'm this respect Then. the railroads
III reap a harvest and the country be
he better for this present squirt"

CHICKENS IN PLENTY
HUNTERS WILL HAVE NO LACK OF
GAME NEXT MONTH.

Hunters are in a high feather over the
glowing reports being received from the
country, telling of the bounteous supply
of game awaiting them this fall.
According to those who are in touch
with the situation, there will be a SPLEEN
did crop of prairie chickens. In fact, it
is said that in some quarters the pros
poets point to one of the best seasons for
fifteen years.
Maple Lake and the neighborhood will
be paradise for hunters this fall ac-
cording to Mr.. Phillips, who conducts
an extensive farm at that place. Mr.
Phillips dropped into the Twin Cities yes
terday He says the woods in his section
are fairly overlooking with young
feathered game. He says that not in ff-
teen years have prairie chickens and quail
been more in evidence than at the pres
ent time

The board of county commissioners w

There is growing opinion that the
money available should be spent on the
complete renovation of one or two roads

In order to repair the city's portion of
the roads 1t has been proposed to raise
the money by making the item a part

thought. is not feasible and a compromise
will probably be reached by taking the
