gress in the agricultural devei.

That county in the passed few

uation and real estate men have
been doing a land Office business.

as been growing rapidly and at
present another large garage,
oank and hotel are being built
Its second drug store was just
completed and in size and tixtu e
is seldom equaled in IL town Of
Springfield's population. 1t is
surprising how the little town of
Stonington, in the southeastern
art of the county, has pushed
Onward within tho past two
years. Several modern hunga-
,ws have been. completed, a
number of business houses are
under cor struction and very
.oop one of the finest churches
f any rural district in the state
will be COMPLETED.
Although the drought was felt
n that part of the state as in Ell
hert county, crops looked favor
able for good harvest this fall.
Especially is this true of broom
corn-Baca county's foremost
crop. The price of broomcorn
his year is soaring around the
$500 and $4OO dollar mark. This
.rop this season will pay several
Zines the price of the land on
which it is grown. O'her CROP,
ruch as maize. corn, cane, beans
ETC., will max. good yield.
