A GIGANTIC SCALE
DUNN COUNTY LAND BRINGS
FORTH ABuNDANTLY WHERE
GRASS GREW BEFORE.

Dickinson, N. d. Oct. 2o.-The
growing Of 10000 bushels Of grain on
$500 acres Of land which has here
tofore been productive OF nothing
better than prairie grass is the
achievement of c. w. Colgrove Of
Minneapolis and ]. b. Dickson of Mt
Vernon, s. D., and the land on which
this has been accomplished Is located
in Dunn county. forty miles from
the nearest railroad.
The problem which now confronts
them is that Of marketing the big
crop, and It is being solved through
the use Of tractor engines, hauling
seven big grain tanks each trip, with
a total capacity of 700 bushels. It
viii require over forty different trips
with the same sized loads to market
the entire product OF this big new
farm, with Taylor, this county, as the
point of marketing. The value Of the
crop at the prevailing price is over
$1,000
Threshing operations on the big
farms there are two OF them-are
not yet completed. About 500 bush
els OF flax is being threshed out each
day, and with the operations in prog
ress for period OF about two weeks
already, there remains over three
weeks omre work to be done,
1t was on April IL Of this year that
the two men commenced breaking up
the big tracts of land. Mr.. Colgrove
had 1,065 acres and Mr.. Dickson had
400 acres. They are working to-
gether in the threshing of the CROP
and in the marketing Of the same.

some Registered
several times

Gregory, S. D., Oct. 2o.-The cleri-
cal force OF Judge witten's office has
completed the alphabetical filing Of
the names Of all persons to register
at the recent Fort Berthold reser-
walton land drawing in North Dakota,
for the purpose Of comparing them to
see that no person registered more
than once, this comparison showed
that one Frank Kaminski of Superior,
Wis, had not only registered twice
but had also drawn two winning num-
bers, 1907 and 4S27. This attempt
to defraud will not only cause him to
lose his claim but he may be prose-
cuted for making false oath unless q
satisfactory explanation can be made.
Another man, Haaken midland OF
Minot, N. d.. also registered twice
and drew two winning numbers, but
he will be allowed to file on the last
one drawn because his double register
ing was known to the Judge After
he had registered the first time 1t
was discovered that he had not taken
out his first citizenship papers, and
after he had done so he was allowed
90 register again. He drew 34S and 500
and will be allowed to file on the lat
ter number.
