Paper Secures Extensive Crop Report.

The Aberdeen News says that
Notwithstanding the poor crops in
some sections of the state this year
South Dakota need by no means
be ashamed of her 1913 crops, for
the News has received crop reports
from reliable bankers in forty DIFF
ferent counties, taking in all Sec
tions of the state, and, averaging
these reports, has a fairly good
story to tell.
Twenty-four of the forty coun-
ties reporting give corn as the big
crop and eleven counties report
wheat being the principal crop this
year. Two of the extreme western
counties report alfalfa as being the
main crop.
Alfalfa is getting to be big
crop in the state and is reported
to be in fine condition in every
section Of the state. Many ;coun
ties report having had practically
no alfalfa in the county last year
and in nearly all of these cases the
leeume has been introduced and is
doing eXcellently. 1t is estimated
that there are about 100000 acres
of alfalfa this year.
