Hancock Record:-Eli Brown re-
ports that one head of oats in his fie d
measured seventeen inches long and
any number of heads will go from
twelve to fifteen inches in length.
The whole field promises bumper
yield and if no bad luck jumps III
at the last minute he wants to en-
gage some fourteen extra teams to
haul grain when he thrashes. We
earnestly hope that nothing will hap
pen to the crops, not only on his place
but all over this neck of the woods, as
certainly it has been year or two
since we have had such prospects for
a big crop as we have at present. AS
far as heard from everything is COM
ing right along, and no complaints ex-
cepting that some fields of barley
seem not quite up to the standard set
by the other crops.

Hill Offers $2,5OO Prize.

James j. Hill, chairman of the
board of the Great Northern, has Of
fered 81, 800 in gold as prizes to be
awarded for the best grains and grass
es grown in the territory along his
lines to be exhibited at the National
Corn Exposition in Omaha December
6 to IS.
This money is to be divided into 200
prizes by Prof. @. P. Bull of the Min
nesota Agricultural College and Prof.
Thos. Shaw of the Dakota Farmer.
There will be about 40 first prizes for
wheat, oats, barley, corn, clover, tim
othy and alfalfa hay, az well as prizes
for speltz and field peas.
Details of the contest will be supplied
by the exposition at Omaha within a
few days and farmers intending to
win some of the Hill money, should
save samples of small grains in bundles
as we'll as the peck samples of grain.
In addition to offering the prize, Mr..
Hill will arrange to assist the farmers
in getting their exhibits to Omaha.
The contest is an unusual one, be-
cause the farmers will not have to
compete with those in the old agri-
cultural states, but simply among
themselves as the contest for Mr..
Hill's prizes will be open only to those
living along the Great Northern lines.
Besides the prizes are to be offered by
states, so Montana, for instance will
not have to compete with the highly
Developed farms of South Dakota and
Minnesota.
Besides Hill money the exposition
offers $50, 900 in prizes and while com
peting for the Hill prizes, the exhibi-
tors may also win some of the regular
prizes.

Naming the Farm.

Have you named your farmyet? If
not, why not? The name you select
can be registered at the Register of
Deeds Office provided no one else is
ahead of you and has selected the
name first. You love the old place
and it ought to be named. It's worth
name. The rural route carrier calls
it "Box 35." Your neighbor knows it
as the 'Old Smith eighty" The land
men refer to it as 'the north half of
the northeast of 23'' and the passing
stranger with no sign or name to
guide tells his friends about the
"pretty little farm with the brook
through the meadow and the elms
around the old white house that I
passed several miles back" The
passing stranger has seen the natural
beauties of the place and remembers
them and there is of course in his
description of the farm, the sugges-
ton for its name. There is about
every farm, no matter how unim-
proved or wild it's surroundings, a
beauty that is natural and landscape
that is suggestive. The naming of
the farm when the choice of the name
is suggested by the farm itself, ac-
cents in the mind of all-even the
rural carrier-the neighbors-
land men, and all other unsentimental
people-the things about the old
place that are dear to you. So name
the farm without deley and have the
name registered. Give even yellow
dog bad name and it will waste
away trying to live down the reputa-
ton. Your farm can never become
really and truly attractive while it is
struggling along shamefacedly as 'Box
35," or some other equally beautiful
and suggestive designation.-Long
Prairie Leader.
