Peter Rolling of seven miles south
east of Dickinson, like the most of
the farmers in his locality, was hard
hit by the black rust this year. He
seeded 100 acres of wheat but does
not expect to cut more than 40 acres
and does not look for that to weld
more than five bushels to the acre.
Twenty acres of oats and ten of corn
are looking good and will probably
give as good a crop as one could
ask. A brother, George Rolling, liv-
ing t~wenty-four miles south, cut one
big load of wheat and took it to a
machine and got less than four bush
els Of rejected wheat. He thought
that he would not cut any more, as
it would scarcely pay expenses of
harvesting.
Fred Bolte and children came up
in the car the first of the week from
his farm south of R~ichardton. He
does not expect much from his wheat
fields this season, in fact, he has
about 100 acres that will not be worth
cutting. However, Mr.. Bolte did not
have his eggs all in one basket this
year. He has rs acres of splendid
flax and his 20-acre field of alfalfa
gave him thirty-eight big loads of hay
and another cutting, just as good, is
ready for harvest. All of the crops,
with the exception of wheat, are good.
Mr.. Bolte is milking fifteen to six
teen cows, and just a short time ago
he sold two and three-year-old steers
at the place at $50 per head. They
were what he called skim-milk calves
at that. This prosperous farmer has
been a resident Of Stark county for
over 80 years and declares that our
settlers should raise more live stock.
In other words, do not depend en-
tirely upon a wheat crop as so many
have been doing the past few years.
Raise a variety Of fodder crops. Mr..
Bolte purchased a registered Durham
sire the past year and in the fall ex-
| poets to. buy several pedigreed heifers
