just the situation thar Mckenzie coun-
ty is today. 1t is experiencing an en-
barrasment OF riches. In the first
place. the farmers generally speaking,
need the money tnat their crops should
bring and they need it bad, to pay for
their improvements, and the horses
and machinery which they bought last
spring. Many of them have obliga-
tions which must be met this fall.
OF those, who can afford to hold their
crop, there are only a few, who, with
lumber $40 a thousand, have the means
to build granaries. There is no all
ternative-the great majority Of the
farmers OF the county Will have to sell
their crop this fail The day will
come to nearly every one of them,
when they will be obliged to load up
their grain on wagon, and cake the
half broken trail over the hills and
the river bottoms. across the wild
Missouri and through the breaks to
the Great Northern railroad, which
Is from twenty to sixty miles distant
from every farming community In the
county. Two horses cannot haul over
fifty bushels OF wheat at time over
SA1AA A0G00s irwin JAGAL1CcAt4 KAO kbDtAlL
can a farmer make the trip In less
than TWO days From over half the
county 1t will require three under
favorable conditions If the fall rains
should overtake them, they may be
many days on the road They will not
have to make the trip once but many
times. A man with a Thousand bush
els Of wheat to his credit even If he
hauls increasingly, win be from two to
three months on the road. BY the time
he Is through we predict he will have
to dig deep down into his pockets 90
find his profits. In the meantime he
has to neglect his fall plowing and the
of the new land which he In
tended to get under cultivation next
year.
This is the prOposrE1on that is con-
fronting the Mckenzie county farmer.
Next year we may have a railroad,
but that does not help out this year.
Some of the best citizens In the
county are moving heaven and earth
TO realize the gravity or the situation,
now. while they are In the midst of
harvest, and get them to make ar
rangements for shipping which, 1t is
believed will materially help matters.
According to them, with the great Mis-
souri, river enclosing uwo entire sides
of the county, It's waters are natural
outlet for shippers, and not the re-
mote railroad. If the farmers viii get
together now, they say, and arrange
with the River Transportation Com
panies to carry them crops to some
point south. they VIII have to haul
their grain hut a fraction OF the dis
tance that they would otherwise be
obliged. to carry 1t, 3nd also In I'll
would get better returns
because Of the lower freight rates BY
water than bv rail.
The farmers at Charlson have taken
UP the matter In earnest and appointed
q committee to consurt with the trans
portation companies. 1t is high time
that the farmers about Schafer GO
and do likewise. After threshing will
be too late for arrangements Of such
a nature can not be made In day.
Mr.. Stensatter predicts that rs per
cent Of the crop will be harvested by
the 18th Of the month III that IN the
ease there Will be grain ready for the
market BY tle end OF the month. The
time IS short We should get together
now.
