at Darlington he stated that crops this
year were fair average but that
wheat farming does not make the
farmers any money and that those
who have adhered to the old methods
of cultivating and planting crops are
not prosperous, but that many are, buy.
ing cows and going into dairying and
stock raising and that those who are
farming along improved lines are
prospecting and making good. He
named several Of the large farmers up
there who were disposing of part OF
their holdings and getting in shape to
farm less land and do the work more
thoroughly and looks for that country
to be the best agricultural section of
the state when finally the farmers get
their bearings.
