S. Q.-Gregg Of Gladstone, who
came up for the Tuesday night lee
ture and was attending to business
matters in Dickinson on Thursday,
was inclined to think that his boys
would be able to work some of the
lighter soil on the farm during the
day. He thinks that the land Is not
more than half seeded around Glad
stone and Taylor and the probabilities
are that many farmers will soon find
it a little late for grain and as a re-
suit will plant more corr than in
former years. MI. Gregg expects to
plant 30 acres Of corn this year. He
has some good alfalfa fields and will
seed about 20 acres more this season.
Last year he saved. some alfalfa
seed from his own fields and he plans
to use the poorer part of this seed
with q mixture of timothy and oats
on quite q large field. y
