North Headlight
is Prosperous
BY LEA LANGABEER

For the past year the Pho
neer Press has printed items
from the North Headlight
section. In the Christmas
issue of the Press last year
we described ourselves fully
and told how happy and how
proud we were over our big
crop. Still we are happy.
Last year wheat and oats
yielded so largely that our
friends in the east refused to
believe the reports. This
year fax was King, although
wheat and oats were above
any other state.
Twenty five bushels to the
acre was only an average
crop. Many threshed larger
yields. John Hall, who lives
north Of here, broke the
worlds record by threshing
q crop. of fax that averaged
50 bushels to the acre.
Many new buildings have
been erected in this vicinity
during the year, not only
granaries and barns but a
number of new and up-to-
date bungalows.
