unusually cool Summers, might have
discouraged many of the farmeys but
such does not seem to be the case
While backward springs and cold
summers materially affected the corn
crops of the last two or three sea-
sons. tn" farmers generally believe
that this season will witness change
and will be more favorable tor corn
crops. For this and other reasons
they Will put in an immense acreage
to corn.
BY improvement of seed, the de-
partment of agriculture experts be-
lleve that the yield of corn ia the
United States can be doubled without
increase of area. The average Weld
last year was 25.5 bushels per acre.

Roberts county in dairying and stock
raising than In any other one line.
This is not theoretical but is borne
out bv statistics of communities
where special attentlon has been
paid to this particular branch of in
dustry. Our attention was called on
Monday tn bunch of nine head OF
cattle brought into Sisseton by Stad-
Ier Bros who live north OF tuNn.
These catLhe were all with one cX-
ccpl,on, red aud black polled Angus,
coming three years old this spring,
and averaged about 1850 pounds each,
for winch the StadlerS received four
cents Il pound, live weight. The eN-
cepton referred to above was Il grade
Jersey steer, which, although he orig
nally cost as much money as the
other cattle and cost just as much to
fatten. weighed about 100 pounds
less and only fetched three and a
half cents pound. which would tend
to the conclusion that this class of
cattle, while very profitable in the
dairy line. are less profitable than
the more stocky breeds for beef pur-
poses

Farm Notes.
Prepare to plant trees.

1T has been predicted that the hog
grower who stays in the game will be
the man who will win out.
Whenever a cow does not pay for
her board it is high time she should
be required to change boarding places
A dressing of we'll rotted manure
put on the garden now Will be found
a great help. 1t is difficult to get a
garden too rich.
The hog that is dong nothing for
itself or Its owner on the farm, may
truly be called per holder. 1t holds
the pen, and that is all.
A sower went forth to sow and
because he Sowed foul seed he was
sore because he was sach careless
sower. Sore troubles come to the
sowcr..who is a sower OF foul seeds.
Feeding is trade ANY one can
throw feed to stock, but to feed in a
true sense of the word requires years
of practlce, and then some fail.
