Happenings Of 4 Week Through
out the State.
GRAIN SAVED BY THE sN0y,
Storm Last April Proved l Blessing
in Disguise instead Of Be
ing 4 Calamity.

Y Last April when heavy snow fell
In this state II was regarded as
great calamity because fruit, early
garden truck and trees and shrubs
We're damaged But that same snow,
storm, in the light of later events, was
the making of the good crop which
now has been harvested in most parts
of the state. 5&y ,a
II the April snowstorm did 81, ,00a.-
900 damage to fruit and other things,
the moisture contained in the snow
was The chief factor in making crop
worth $15,000,000 or 100000, 900.
Surprise has been occasioned by the
gratifying manner III which small
grain is yielding throughout the state.
But the apparent mystery is explained
when the moisture from the April
snowstorm is taken into consideration.
The moisture from that storm was the
making of the crop which now has
been harvested. That the moisture
from a single storm could give crops
the, right kind of start and keep
them growing during the many weeks
at excessively dry weather which fol-
lowed is a striking illustration Of the
great ability Of the soil Of South Da-
kota to retain moisture and send it to
the roots OF growing crops as .'ast as
needed.
Additional thrsshing returns which
have been received bear out early re-
turns showing that South Dakota has
this year raised one Of the best crops
in its history. The quality OF the grain
raised in the state this year is much
above the average. For the first time
in several years a carload OF wheat
which graded No. has been market
ed in Sioux Falls and shipped to
Minneapolis. 1t came from the Cald.
well farm, near Sioux Falls, and
threshed out an average of twenty
two bushels to the acre. Oats on the
same farm threshed out thirty-one
bushels an acre.
