The people who went to the region
near Minot, N. d., last spring and
took nomesteads are much pleased
with their prospects in that country.
They report crops raised there this
year as exceptionally good. Wheat
went from % bushels to the acre-the
lowest reported-to As bushels; oats
20 to 90 bushels and flax as high as %
bushels to the acre. This was a favor
able year for that part of the country
and crops were fine. Last year was
the most unfavorable year there that
the residents had experienced, but
wheat averaged % there when the
general average of the state was only
5 or 6 bushels. Our former townsman,
A. I. Churchill, has half section of
land up there and he remained there
all summer attending to the improve
ments. He was the only one OF the
colony from here that experimental
In raising crop. He had 50 acres
broken up and sowed to flax from
which he raised 900 bushels--1lf BUSH
els to the acre-which netted him
$l32 bushel. He hired all the work
done, including the marketing of the
fax, and his net profit after paying all
expenses was 1925.
