Benson County Satisfied. II
report from Leeds, Benson coun-..
ty, says: 1--WE look for a 10 to IL,

fields which will yield more, some,
perhaps. as much as 20 bushels. Rye
will yield about the same as wheat.
Oats and barley are rather poor. Flax

that there will 'be as much money re-

The crop situation in Cavalier coun-

wheat and rye are fair, oats and barIy
not good. Osnabrock reports a fairly
good crop, but adds that oats and bar

Farmers around Langdon seem to

the wheat crop. One bank says that
