w. H Loomis, who is homestead
ing north of here, was in town Mon
day and told us that he had chicken
that was Matched March 10Th that
now weighs five pounds. This may
sound little large to some, but Mr..
Loomis has the chicken to prove the
statement. Everything grows big in
Mellette county.
Mrs. Herman Hellekson brought
the Editor a most beautiful boquet of
cut flowers last Saturday. There
were petunias, phlox, migonett, snap
dragon and a number of others that
we could not name. Mrs. Hellekson
is quite successful florist, having
won first prize at our county fair the
past two years on cut flowers.
Tom Fennel brought us the first
home grown cucumbers this season
and they were' mighty fine. Tom
tells us that he has corn over nine
feet high and shooting from two to
three ears to the stalk and has a good
garden also, This Mellette county
will produce IF given only half a
chance.
j. G, Cordell on Tuesday brought
us sample of his hog millet that
measured four feet seven inches high
and Is well headed. He estimates
that it will yield from three to four
tons of fine feed per acre. He also
brought us sample of his billion
dollar grass, new forage plant, that
is as tall as the hog millet. Mr.. Cor
dell has in about sixty acres of these
two hay crops.
We have a sample of second growth
alfalfa at our Office that came from
the Juzek ranch south of town, that
measures 81 inches high and repre-.
sents but three weeks growth. AL
falfa like everything else, is ,makeing
an immense crop here this year.
Other crops on the Juzek ranch look
exceptionally good, 'and they have a
very fine garden also. They seem to
be makeing a success of growing
celery of which they sent us very
nice specimen.

Some Oats.

We had heard so much about Joe
Siegmunds field of oats mile south
west of Wood, so last Friday we went
over and took a. look at this field.
We want to say that it is one of the
finest fields of oats we ever seen in
any country and it looks as though it
would yield from IS to 100 bushels
per acre. We brought sample home
with us, and after applying the tape,
we found it was five feet high and
had heads foot long. There lis an
even 100 acres in this field. Mr.. Sieg
mund is harvesting his big crop OF
ost t,this week. He is one of our
most extensive and successful farmers
and besides his big oat crop hs has
better thaD.l0O acres of corn that is
looking yery fine and promises good
yield. Mellette county could use sew
eral IT, and more farmers like Mr..
Siegmund, and if farmers in the 500
and 500 acre land districts of some
of the adjoining states could see the
crops here this year with their own
eyes, we are of the opinion that there
would be a goodly number of new
tillers OF the soil in Mellette county
another season.
