There is not very much threshing
going on in the country at the pres
ent time, although the machine men
are getting in readiness to tour the
country in ssearch of jobs. The
only case we have heard of 50 far is
that Of Halver Borenson, who lives
down in Prosper township. He is
threshing barley, and although not
quite through a neighbor reports
that the grain will yield 60 bushels
per acre. There are fields OF oats
down in the same township that
farmers think will yield as high as
100 bushels per acre when threshed.

and the freight rates are cheaper.

farmers.
