Curtis and Rolph, who are farming
four miles south of town made a rec
ord this year, OF four hundred and
forty-four bushels of potatoes ~ the
acre. This yield was pretty good
considering the fact that they were
grown on new land, il having been
cleared lzst spring. Sixty-six pota-
toes were taken from one hill in this
field. Leon Chapman, secretary of the

Alfalfa and Corn

Alex Smith, who lives six miles
west Of Ontario has taken one hum
dred and twenty-five sacks OF alfalfa
seed from a twenty-five acre field. Mr..
smith received fifteen hundred dollars
In cash for his seed crop.
@. w. Blanton, who Is one OF the
Oldest residents Of the Ontario dis
trict, threshed one thousand pounds
OF cleaned alfalfa seed from forty
acres, for which he received fourteen
cents pound, or sixty-eight dollars
and fifty cents per acre for the seed
alone; he also secured fine first
cutting of hay.
l.. A. Walker, the king OF alfalfa
seed growers, harvested another
bumper crop Of alfalfa seed this year.
He never fails to secure a good crop
Of seed. Last season he took eighty
dollars per acre from his alfalfa field.
and this season from less than 100
acres he has thirty-five thousand
pounds OF first class seed. The price
he received this year was thirteen
cents per pound. Many OF our ten
and twenty acre farmers are raising
alfalfa seed between the rows OF young
apple trees, and are getting as high
as sixty-five dollars per acre. After
the orchards come into bearing the
alfalfa Is turned under for fertilizer.
They are also finding that red clover
can be grown very successfully, both
for hay and seed in the young Or
chards.
A. Gramse, whose alfalfa farm is
xx,tf - "A ,xf IN
tario, took 1873 sacks from forty acres
Of second cutting alfalfa, which sold
for s2,300 as well as a large crop
of first cutting hay. For the past
four years Mr.. Gramse has marketed
big crops OF alfalfa seed and last year
also shipped eight cars OF fancy ap-
Piles from his eight acre orchard. Here
Is the proof of the statement, that al
falfa and apples are two leaders and |

A Good Corn Country.
Our farmers are beginning to real
ize that this is first class corn
country. The reason that there has
been but little corn raised here be- ,
fore Is because we have not tried II .
was much easier to raise feed In the
shape OF alfalfa, which has TO be
seeded only once. in about twenty
years, than to raise corn that must
be planted every year and careully
cultivated several times during the
season. There seems TO be too much !
work TO grow corn where alfalfa
yields from six to nine tons 10 the
acre, and the only work required Is
and harvesting the crop.
George Routh got yield this year
OF ninety bushels OF corn 10 the acre. \
while his nelghbor. Mr.. Adrich, got
about the same yield. Ellie Brown,
whose farm Is mile southwest OF
town has been raising corn on a small
patch for several years. always get
