Another Big Crop.

j. S. Ulfers, one of our prom
inent farmers south Of town, is
numbered among the many this
year that reports a big crop and
big yield. He raised, all told,
1858 bushels Of flax, 4,848 bushels
of oats, 577 Of speltz, 485 of wheat
and 275 of barley. With the pres
ent prices this fall every bushel of
wheat and flax raised this year
means about dollar to the farmer,
while oats bring close to SOC per
bushel. Good crops and these
prices make the farmers happy.

New Land Office Ruling.

1t is reported that a new ruling
from the general land Office will go
into effect January, 1909. that will
make things rather unpleasant for
a great number of girls who are
holding down claims. Under
former rulings postmasters and
their clerks. state and county
officers and their deputies could
prove up on lands without living
on same, providing they had estab-
lished residences before the ap-
pointments. So many of the girls
and women are taking advantage
of these provisions by getting ap.
pointments as postoffice clerks and
deputies in county offices that the

$4,000 Bushe| Crop.

j. +. Reeve, while in town from
his farm north Of town Wednesday,
called at the Chronicle office to see
that we continued to send him the
Chronicle for another year and, in
cidently told us of his big crop. Mr..
Reeve is numbered among the few
big farmers located in the Golden
Valley and this year had about 600
acres Of crop and threshed out 49,
600 bushels Of all kinds of grain,
an average Of over 20 bushels to
the acre. His oats were exception
ally good and yielded from so to 60
bushels to the acre. Last spring
he sowed five bushels Turkeystand
Red wheat and got 149 bushels in
return. This is some choice seed
wheat and he will resow the 149
bushels next spring. He also re-
ports a good stand Of alfalfa for the
first crop. He sowed number
Of acres on the Oath day Of June
and by the oath of July it was 13
inches high. There is no question
but what q success can be made here
with alfalfa if properly cared for.
Mr.. Reeve is one of those who
believes in diversified farming and
is also engaged quite extensively in
live stock.

MISS HOGAN
wins The SIS
And the Girls Are Now Off For the
Grand Prizes TO Be Given
Away December 2l
LOOK OUT FOR SOME new GIRL

The cash prize has now been
awarded and the contestants are
now off for the grand prizes to be
given away Dec. 21st. Although
Miss Hogan won the special prize,
no one can tell who will win the
$40O piano, as the votes cast to
date are so ligth it would be i'm
possible to pick the winners at the
final.. ..close.
There are thirty days left to win
this piano or one of the watches
in, and the girl that gets out and
does the hustling is the one that
will be successful.
Maybe some girl or young lady
who has not yet entered will get
this piano. For instance, if some
girl would collect $40 on subscrip-
tion and send it in with her name
it would put her in first place; or
some girl would collect SO. she
would tie Miss Hogan who is in first
place now. The possibilities are
that the vote will be large at the
finish and the girls that have enter
ed cannot afford to lose any time
from now until the finish. You
hay never have a chance again to
get a beautiful piano for so little
effort.
The following is the standing of
the contestants at six O'Clock yes
terday:
Miss Agnes Hogan. go. .22OO
Miss Esther Olson. =. 1850
Miss Edna Christensen. :. !. 1000
Miss Mary Mason. ........ $50

again, you girls who have not yet
started, or who are in the rear, and
zee If the prizes are not worth the
effort it will take to get to the top.
