EXCELLENT WHEAT YIELD.
Reports of Conditions of All Crops
Above the AYeraqs.

Whitewood, S. D., Oct. 14.-AccordinG
to the reports Of various thrashing
crews at work throughout western
South Dakota, the wheat yield Of he
present year will average twenty-five
bushels per acre. Except in a few cases
the grain is of excellent quality, well
filled, plump and hard, and thrashers
report that no rusty or smutty grain
has been encountered. 1t is asserted
that the yield of the present year is
greater than that of any previous year
in the history of the Black Hills. There
are a few isolated cases where the
grain, being stacked in a damp condi-
ton, has sprouted. This is therefore
fit only for stock feed. Most of the
grain is being thrashed from the shock
and although it received a severe wet
ting in September, the warm weather
of the last few weeks has dried it
thoroughly.
Oats are running from fifty to sixty
bushels per acre. There are enormous
yields of this crop in various parts of
the valley surprising all expectations.
T~hrashing crews are working over
time and expect to lave all they can
do up to the beginning Of winter.
