RAISE TIMOTHY.

Baled timothy hay is worth about
$24 per ton at the present time on the
St. Paul and Minneapolis market.
This ought to make It worth about $l1
per ton loaded at Hendrum. Timothy
should yield about two tons per acre
and at this rate it seems to as there
should be good money for the farmers
IN this neighborhood in raising this
kind of hay. It would take about 35
bushels per acre of wheat to bring an
equal amount Of money and the cost
of raising it would be more than the
timothy. There is no danger but
what the market will continue good
for years to come because the cities
are now drawing part of their supply
from as far away as Nebraska. and
the rapid growth of these cities and
Dulutk and the iron range country
means that the demand will increase.
Of course it would pay best to feed it
to the milch COWS, but for a nice,
easy and clean method of farming the
raising of hay looks to Us as good az
the days of No. 1 hard vheat.-Hen.
