CHARLIE DOYON's, FARM.
What An Energetic Young Man Can Do in
Dakota.

One Of the big Ramsey county
farms is owned by Chas. IT.: Doyon of
Odessa township. The farm consists
OF e440 acres which is nearly all in
cultivation. Mr.. Doyon farms On
| practical lines and has made farming
pay we'll. Last year his wheat aver
aged 81 bushels per acre; he had one
piece of oats that went 80 bushels per
acre and his flax and other grains
yielded we'll. 1t is worth anyone's
time to visit this farm which is we'll
kept and finely equipped with houses,
barns, machinery and stock. A repre-
sentative Of the Inter Ocean visited
the Doyon farm last week, and through
the courtesy of Foreman A. G. Wolf
was shown over a part of the prop
erty. An immense barn 4Ox1OO,
which is 50 feet high from basement
floor to the roof comb, furnishes ample
room for "A head Of horses and ITO
tons OF hay and tons of feed grain.
A feed mill grinds the feed and ele-
Yates it into a huge hopper from which
supplies are drawn as needed. Is" :
There are two large nicely arranged
residence houses on the farm. One
of these is occupied by Mr.. Doyop
and his family, and the other by
the foreman.
Lighthouse teams are busy putting
in the crop this spring. Ten men,
aside from the foreman, are en-
ployed during the season.
Mr.. Doyon is getting a nice start
in the stock business and now has
"a head Of graded Short-horns.
One thing which attracted the at.
tention of the Inter.Ocean man was
that MI. Doyon has a place for
everything, and has everything in
its place. He has his own thresh-
ing rig, a thoroughly modern piece
of machinery, housed in a storm
proof bailding, and all his other
machinery is stored in buildings
when not in use.
A few years ago Mr.. Doyon had
about 1000 bushels of wheat left
which he was unable to market on
account Of a rush Of spring work, and
during the Letter corner he sold
it at $l.55 per bushel-the sale being
made just before the bottom fell out.
Mr.. Doyon believes in enjoying
life. During the spring, summer and
fall he is actively engaged in looking
after his farming interests. He u.s.
ually spends the winters with his
family visiting in the south. Last
winter he visited Arizona ard South
ern California.
