GOOD FARMING PAYS
Some Fine Yields Reported From
Bath in Northern Part of
South Dakota.
Over Two Inches Of Rain Measured
in Some Parts of the
State.

Special to The Journal.
Bath, S. D., Aug. PA heavy rain and
wind storm early Sunday morning damaged
header stacks to some extent Two inches
within a week Sloughs and other low places
are filled with water. Some shock threshing
done during last week and where land
was properly farmed good returns are shown.
The heaviest wheat returns reported are
always far above the average. Among the
larger yields reported, mostly on corn stub
BILE, are Howard Perry, 81 acres of wheat,
1sA bushels an acre; Henry WILDER, 60 acres
p bushels an acre; A. Ballweg, 40 acres, Is
bushels an acre; A. L. Freeman, 40 acres,
q bushels an acre, and ]. L. Fritz, 40 acres,
on corn stubble that yielded 81 bushels an
acre, and 60 acres on blowing that went l3A
bushels an acre The crop from this forty
was sold at u cents a bushel, or for over
S22 an acre. Land just as good is selling
at from SIG to $50 an acre. Mr.. Fritz IS yield
of 81 bushels acre shows the remarkable
production of this soil when properly cul-
raised has been cropped continuously for
over twenty years and this years crop is
the largest ever raised upon it. There are
hundreds of acres in the neighborhood that
will yield only from four to eight bushels
an acre.
This years big corn crop and the large
yields Of wheat corn stubble have done
much to convince farmers that smaller
acreage properly farmed will make much
larger returns that large acreage always
cropped to wheat
Land buyers in from Iowa last week say
that the corn crop in this part of the state
tons of their own state. short time will
see the crop out of the way of frost.
Flax harvesting is nuder way and the crop
is also a good one. A few fields of oats
els an acre and field of speltz went at the
rate of AZ bushels.

FINANCIAL GOSSIP
Worlds Shipments.

Whallon from New York-If our people would
get the fear of high money out of their heads
prices would improve good deal. The people
who were wildly hullish this time last year when
stocks were selling on 3la to per cent basis
very bearish with same stocks selling on " to
5h per cent basis and high rates Of money this
fall in my opinion not likely. People with
money and little nerve who buy stocks now
will be well rewarded.
