This has been an exceptional summer
for breaking and there is hardly any
one who has not turned over new land
this year.
L. E. Pascoe and wife are now back
on their farm here. They had an ex-
tremely pleasant time while away in
Pembina county and their return is
welcomed by host of old friends.
The crops this year are just the kind
that make smiling faces. Last Sundays
rain fattened them out in some places
but the straw this year appears
stronger than usual and with the warm
sunshine they were soon up and look.
ing as fine as ever. Nearly all the
fields around here are headed out.
E. Bakrud has been under the
weather for some little time and lately
decided to go to the hospital at Hannah
for treatment. There is nothing in his
condition to particularly cause alarm
and he expects to be back on the farm
in tip top shape in plenty of time to
look after the taking off of his crop.
Big stacks Of new hay are alread,
beginning to dot the prairie. There is
an abundance of hay this year but Sc
much of it is flooded with water in thu
sloughs that all are letting their NOV
ers cut right down to the water line
Hay has been very scarce this summer
and everything get-at-able is being cut
