October. Deceased was born in Rich
land County, Wis.,, on the second day
of June 1851, and was at the time OF
his death 81 years, months and ~
days old. He came to Grey Eagle in
1919 and was one of the early set
tiers, having for several years resid-
ed upon the farm now owned by An
ton Dense. On February End, 1881,
MIR. Barrett was united in marriage

union was born two daughters, one

Corn CROP INCREASES
Three Hundred Thousand More Acres
Devoted to Raising of HING Corn
This Year.

Minnesota farmers harvested corn
from 3UU,UO0 more acres in 1914 than
they did in 1913 and the crop increas-
ed little more than 1O,0OO,OOO BUSH
els, according to the 1914 crop figures,
compiled by the state board Of immi-
grafton and given out by Fred S.
sherman, state commissioner of immi-
grafton. The report shows a slight
falling off in the average yield per
acre.
Last year the average yield, ac-
cording to figures compiled by this
department" the report says, "gave
AZ bushels to the acre, and this year
the average yield shows 1920 bushels
to the acre. In 1918 Minnesota
acreage was 2,438, 666, and this year
the acreage shows 2,763,43O. The to-
tai production last year
for Minnesota $780, 1871, and this
year 12O,613,673 bushels, an increase
of little over 100000 bushels"
The states figures last year differ
ed from the government crop report
and Commissioner Sherman says
there is likely to be another difference
this year, The governments final re-
port will be issued later.
1.-The slight falling off yield per
acre this year is accounted for by sew
eral spots where heavy rains in the
month of June damaged the corn some
and brought the yield down." says the
state report. "This prevailed princi-
pally in some sections Of southern
minnesota.
"The total value Of this years corr
crop of Minnesota is approximately
$I8,398,887.45."

The village water tank at Belgrade
collapsed last Sunday and left nothing
but the tower of heavy beams stand
ing. The tank was wooden one and
many predicted the disaster for some
time as the tower was old and rotten
that made repairs practically useless
and the carpenters refused to scale
the tower and strengthen the tank
with new hoops. 1t was indeed case
of luck that no one was caught in the
wreck nor that the power house was
not wrecked to some extent. Elmer
Iverslie was standing in the door of
the power house when the collapse
came and was watersoaked thorough
ly but escaped being hit by any of the
heavy timbers. 1t will be replaced
with steel tank and tower.
