ONE FLAX CROP PAYS
FOR AN 80-ACRE FARM

r. One of the best crop stories for the
year Of 1916 comes from the Kennedy
country about Is miles south of New
England. There have been similar re-
ports published but none that listen
any better, or show to better adj
vantage what can be done with land
and crops in the New England terri
tory.
Last spring Henry Schroeder pur-
chased 80 acres of land not far from
his homestead. He hired Lawrence
Schwerbel to break the land with a
traction blowing outfit. Mr.. Schroeder
had teams and did his own discing
and seeding. He sowed the field to-
flax and in the fall did his own cut
ting. The fax yielded better than 49,
bushel to the acre.
Mr.. Schroeder marketed his flax and
received money enough to pay for
the land, to pay for the breaking and
had almost enough money left to
pay the threshing bill out Of this
one crop.
That 80 acres Of Hettinger county
soil was a pretty nice Christmas pres
ent for a hustling farmer to hand to
himself and family. This spring that
land will not have to be plowed and
the 1915 wheat crop off from 80
acres Of good land ought to make
another nice Christmas present for
the family.
