The farms Of Minnesota this year
will produce more than $38O,00O 900
in new wealth. 1t is one of the great
est crops in the history Of the state.
A score Of experts, after exhaustive
investigations, have made the esti-
mates and they are considered con
sentative and within very close
range of what the final production
will be,
The figures represent the average
arrived at by the experts, govern
ment reports and figures from grain
elevators and storage plants,
For the first time in the history of
the state the dairy products have
passed the wheat values, despite the
fact that wheat values made gain.
Professor Hacker says that in Min
nesota there are 100000 mich cows
and that the average yield of butter
fat to COW in Minnesota is 1870
pounds, and that the average price is
28.5 cents pound. With other prod
ucts the dairy values will reach $685.
100000.
In making the estimates only a
small allowance was made for high
prices brought on by the European
war and if ocean commerce is re-
established promptly the total figures
may reach $400,OO0,00O
Aside from potatoes the experts re-
gard the figures as accurate. The late
potato crop looks promising, but it is
not fully developed.
The hay Agures show the crop to
be the largest ever known in Mime
sofa. A substantial gain is recorded
in poultry and eggs, one of Mime
sofas chief Industries.
Some idea of the corn crop can be
gained in the estimated valuation OF
$35, 100000 Two years ago the United
States government tabulated Mime
sofas corn crop at $2S,925,000.
The live stock figures compiled at
South St. Paul show remarkable re-
suits. While many other live stock
markets will show decrease South
st. Paul will make a big increase.
The item of $2O,OOO,0OO for other
farm products includes buckwheat,
honey and many other small farm
products.

BIG ROLLER COASTER BUILT
Thrilling Dips aid bivSs at Great MIN
es~. nesota State Fair.

-
Did you ever take a ride on big
roller coaster about half mile long
and find yourself fairly gasping for
breath, though thrilled by pleasure, as
you made the deep dips and sharp
turns? If you have experienced the
sensation you know why some persons
are SO crazy about it that they refuse
to get off until they have taken a dozen
rides or more.
A gigantic roller coaster has been
erected at the Minnesota State Fair
Grounds this summer that is said to
be one of the largest ever built in the
Middle West. 1t will please thousands
at the Fair, Sept. 7-12 A cable car
ries the two-seated car to the top,
which fsIso high that a view of all the
grounds is afforded. Then the car is
suddenly released, and long deep dip
is taken that leaves a great empty
space in your stomach. You shoot up
hill, take a sharp turn another dip,
a dozen more ascents, dips, and dives,
and back you are again ready for an
other ride.
Near the coaster a big Carousell,
similar to several merry-go-rounds put
together, is being built that will prove
to be an attraction of considerable i'm
portance. 1t is to be permanent
structure. Going? aEislS sr-yrsa-

REUNION
PLANNED AT FAIR
Representatives of Hundreds Of
Clubs are Planning Trip to
Hamllne. 4sgr@ ass@

A great Farmers Club Reunion,
where members of the 100 clubs in
Minnesota, as we'll as those from other
states, may meet in a social way and
discuss their many problems, is to be
held at the Minnesota State Fair, Sept.
to Il. 1t is the first time that re-
union of this kind has been held at
any fair in America.
The entire northwestern corner Oil
the block occupied by Agricultural
Hall is to be given to the Farmers
Clubs. A large tent is to be erected
on this corner and used by club mem
bers who desire to rest, visit, or hold
any programs. Eventually it is hoped
that a permanent structure may be OBJ
tanned to be called the Farmers Club
Building.
Uncle Sam Coming.
Representatives OF the United States
Department of Agriculture and the
Minnesota Agricultural College will be
present to distribute literature on the
organization of clubs and answer any
questions asked regarding the progress
OF the movement in other states. No
formal program will be given, as it is
the desire of those in charge to make
it an informal reunion.
fT()Qyer fifty per cent of the clubs in
Minnesota have indicated their inten-
ton Of sending representatives to the
Fair. Many of them are planning to
send nearly the entire club.

head. Prime heavy steers contin-
lie to creep upward, recording a
new top today, al $9.95. Other
sales of near prime steers were
numerous at $3.50 to 1885, some
branded westerns fed in Kansas
selling at $3.50. Bulk Of native
steers sell at a slightly lower
range than week ago, at $3.50
to 1925. Half fat yearlingS are
mean sellers, and choice yearlings
are not as high as a week ago,
best at $3.50. Kansas grass steers
are selling at $3.50 to 5000, the
latter price being secured today
for a shipment of Davis Green
wood county steers, 1948 lbs. av-
erage. Fat native cows sell at
$3.50 to 1925, top grass cows at
$6.75. Quarantine cattle are NOV
ing freely, the supply of $50 cars
today consisting of a few ship
mentS of North Texas cake fed
steers, which class is about all
marketed for this season, and a
large supply of mixed Oklahoma
cattle. The best cake fed steers
brought $40, wintered steers
from the Usage country anil other
sections of Oklahoma at $3.50 to
a.25. medium and common light
steers at $3.50 to S6.75. Stock
cattle have lacked life for some
time, the best selling at $500 to
S.75, which are considered bar
gain prices by good many deal
erS. Heavy feeders are having
something of a boom, Illinois and
Iowa men taking them at S7.75
to 1855. for short feeds.
Hog receipts are very light, but
packers enforced a big break last
week after the middle of the
week. The market is slowly re-
covering, sales 5 to 10 higher to-
day, receipts 5000 head. Packers
are stubborn in their fight against
advancing prices, and bought few
hogs early today, order buyers
