$500 BUSHELS ARE
RAISED BY FAMILY
THIS is REMARKABLE RECORD
MADE BY A. J.. KUHNS AND
CHILDREN NEAR WORTH
ING.

Worthing, S. D.-A. j. Kuhns and
his sons, living on a 1arm near Wor-
thing, have made a great record this
season in the way of crop production
on their farm and the amount of
farm work they have performed.
They did all the work themselves in
connection with caring for the grow
ing crops on the farm, and 10Y have
completed the work of doing their
W threshing. Their crop was an
enormous one they hauling from the
threshing machine a total of 10000
bushels of grain which Will grade
No. l. Thus far they have sold from
this seasons crop 1000 bushels OF
wheat, for which they received "a
cents per bushel. The remaining H.
900 bushels of small grain will be
held until such time as they wish to
sell it. In addition to their small
grain the farmer and sons nav 300
acres of orn which is estimated to
yield from 40 to SO bushels per acre.
1t is c~onservatively estimated that
itheir yield of corn from the 500
acres will aggregate about $4,000
bushels, which will make a total of
$4,000 bushels of small grain and
corn raised by II family and with
the MEMBERS of the family doing all
the work themselves.

shells; oats, Al; wheat, 20; macaroni,
%; barley 80; potatoes, 100; alfalfa

crops, based on the above acreage,
