FARMERS PLEASED
WITH CONDITIONS
Geneally Optimistic Feeling
Owe Crop Prospects
Prevails Here.

Optimistic feelings prevail generally
among the farmers in the vicinity of
Grand Forks over the present crop
situation and over the prospects for
the balance OF the wear.
Reports from this part of the state
show that the corr has in most places
reached Il height of from one to two
feet, and is in first class condition.
The recent rains which have fall
len generally throughout North Da-
kota far from injur:ng the crops have
been of great benefit eliminating all
possibility of drought at the present
time. The country is now in a posi-
ton TO stand dry weather for come
time to come.
The general opinion. is thai It
would be beneficial to have the pres
ent hot sunny weather continue dur
ing teh next ten days or more. This
is especially true With reference to
the corn crop.
The wheat il, also in first class con-
dition, being of course much further
advanced than is the corn. If the
weather conditions continue to he
favorable it is probable that thresh-
ing Will begin throughout the valley
at the usual time.
