THE LATEST! To give you faint
idea as to what we are doing in 1901. We
will quote few paragraphs from the To-
cal newspapers that will let you see
what lie still going on here in Cavalier
county:
Cavalier county Republican, published
at Langdon:
Up to November LIST there were ship
ped from Langdon 535.75O bushels Of
grain ont of this years crop. OF which
amount nearly 10000 bushels was flax
and nearly 10000 bushels wheat, the bal
ance being barley. Compared with last
year this amount is nearly up to the to.
tai shipment for the whole crop year and
what makes the figures the more inter-
esting lie the fact that not one third OF
this years crop tributary to Langdon
has been marketed yet, which would in
dictate that nearly 100000 bushels Of
grain will leave Langdon station the
present year, which is volume that we
doubt il any other local point the size Of
Langdon can duplicate in the state or
the whole country for that matter.
Allowing that Hannah, Wales and
Dresden combined, to the north, will
handle the same amount, and Easily,
Osnabrock and Milton to the south do
ing likewise, with what goes to Walhalla
from the extreme northeastern portion
Of the county, 1t is fair to presume that
the total shipments Of wheat, flax and
barley for the year from Cavalier county
will be 100000 bushels or better.
The 100000 bushels above referred
to Of course does not include all the
grain raised in the county, but only
what is shipped out, and adding the seed
and feed kept at home we believe the to-
tai product OF wheat, flax. barley and
oats for this year will run close to 10000.
900 bushels.
Allowing that out Of this 6,000,00D bus.
heels shipment there are 100000 bushels
Of barley at Accents. which makes $780,.
600; 100000 bushels Of wheat at say 81
cents, making Sl,O60.OOO, and 100000
bushels Of flax at say s13O per busnel
making s2,6OO,0OO. we have a grand total
OF 5000, 900 for the exportable surplus
of our three principal products, leaving
out the oats and all miscellaneous grains
"Ihe Hankey Bros, Of Grey township
have not done bad this year. Their fla,
went 20. wheat 30 and oats 65 bushels tc
the acre. They had in $50 acres an6
their threshing bill cost in the neighbor
