up the natural and logical territory COW
cred by The Capper Farm Press.
These 16 states produce in crops and
livestock, more than half of our total agri
cultural wealth. The annual farm prod
ucts of these t6 states alone are worth
TWELVE BILLION DOLLARS, while the
total for the other 80 states is Eleven Bill
lion Dollars.
The average value per farm in these 16
states is $10,247 compared with general
average of So, 444 for the entire United
States
Naturally then. these states, with their
nearly three million prosperous farms, Of
fer wonderfully rich market for manu-
featured goods. A study of sales records
shows that for most kinds Of merchandise
they offer greater marketing possibilities
than all the rest of the country combined
The farmers of these states buy more mo-
tor cars more tractors, more farm machin-
cry, than do the other thirty-two states.
In fact they buy more of everything else
that goes to make life worth living.
And they are buying more literally
every year.

Drowned in CultOn's Pond.

Ole Bradeson was drowned in the
Culton pond in the second ward last
Friday afternoon between half past
five and six O'Clock. Ole and few
companions were on the banks Of the
pond that afternoon enjoying little
outing in a manner suited to them
selves and some one of the party dared
him to swim across. This he did at
once and after making it in safety ne
accepted second challenge. This time
he had swan only about three rods
when he was apparently taken with
cramps Turning toward the nearest
shore he cried for help and Immediately
sank to the bottom. Not coming to
the surface, his companions became
alarmed and sent word to town for
help. The news spread quickly and
nearly two hundred people gathered at
the pond but not knowing the exact
spot where he sank little was done for
some time. A raft with an old boat
placed on top of it was procured and
Frank Hinkle armed with pike pole
began the search. Having been direct
ed by the companions as to the location
where the body was liable to be, ne
was not long in locating it. A long
rope was tied to the raft and Frank
went to the spot and hooked into the
clothing, bringing the body to the sur
face, and was pulled to shore. This
was about an hour after the drowning
and the lips and face had commenced
to turn dark purple. Henry Tellef-
son was sent for and the body taken to
his undertaking rooms and properly
cared for until Sunday afternoon.
Funeral services, conducted by Rev.
Grefthen, were held from the home OF
Peter Hanson Sunday at 2 p. m. and
from the Norwegian Lutheran church
at 2:3O, interment in the Jensen GENE
terry Deceased leaves three sisters,
Mrs. Peter Hanson, Mrs. Andrew Hol-
land and Mrs. Julius Hageberg, and
one brother, MIR. Julius Johnson.
Ole Bradeson was born in Norway in
1873, coming tie this country with his
parents when about Is years of age
and has lived the greater part of the
time in Edgerton. Ole gained repu-
tation few years ago as wrestler
and all around strong man and has
filled several engagements with side
shows and carnival companies. When
not on the road he has always been
what is termed as ''handy man" in Ed
gerton, a good worker at all kinds of
odd jobs. His services will be missed
by many families.
In this sad ending the relatives have
the sympathy of the whole community.
