CROPS BOOMING.
Architect Says Conditions Are Fine in
Western District.


W. D. Gillespie, the Fargo architect,
who has returned from a trip through
the western part of the state, reports
conditions almost ideal in that section
and the business men and farmers are
feeling very optimistic over the out
look.
Very heavy rains have fallen from
Devils Lake west, from Minot to Will
liston and north to the boundary, have
had very fine rains, which We're very
much needed IN that section as there
is a lot of late grain out that way and
il was commencing to suffer from the
continued hot and dry weather.
The crop outlook is good, but should
there be early frost or u@nfavorable
weather conditions from now on 20
per cent of the acreage would not
mature a paying crop.
Mr.. Gillespie says the fax acreage
throughout that section will be 25 pei
cent less than last year and a grea,
deal of that is so late that frost ma
destroy the crop.
