GROVE LENGTHENS LEAD
WINS 2 TO 0 FROM YIROQUA IN
HARD LUCK GAME
Richland Center Defeats LaFarge 3
to 0-HillsbOrO Bests ElrOy to

Viroqua's pennant hopes received a
body blow Sunday when through sheer
hard luck they lost to Soldiers Grove
y to 0. The Grove got all the luck
and breaks of the game, and this
coupled with Williams bonehead seal
ed our fate. The boys played fine
ball, and Helgeson never pitched a
better game-and he's heaved some
handles in his day. Kellar threw a
splendid game for the Grove. The
umpiring of both Coe and the Soldiers
Grove man was perfect, and the game
was delightfully."- free from friction.
The grounds were in awful condi-
ton due to the rain, and the game was
held up for half an hour because of a
thundershower. 1t is most surprising
that the score was not large because
of the wetness of grounds and ball.
It was a great day for the home
teams. All three won. The Grove goes
well out in front. Viroqua and Elroy
maintain about the same distance
apart at End and 3rd Hillsboro
crawls up in 4th. LaFarge drops in
9Th and the Center advances in 9th.
No switches in position occurred be-
cause of Sundays games.

When farmer orders box of bolts
Of certain make and size he does
not expect to find a thin layer of the

farmer should sort It as TO quality and

was found that tractors were operated
successfully in what would be termed
unfavorable as we'll as favorable sea
sens. which would tend to show their
general adaptability.
While the section covered is rough
" called the corn belt farm practices
are not uniform throughout the re-
gion. In most parts of the eastern
corn-beit states commercial fertilizers
and lime are used. these being ap-
Piled by horse-pulled distributors. In
preparing the land for crops all the
ground may be plowed, or the small
grain may be seeded on the previous
years corn ground by disking or har-
rowing, without blowing. The latter
practice reduces work for horses or
tractor In the busy season. Whether
most of the blowing is done in the fall
or only small part, and the rest in
the spring, depends largely on ioca-
ton. Where fall and spring blowing
are done in about equal amounts on
Individual farms, the tractor Is used
more in the fall than In the spring,
and horses vice versa. 1t was found
that when all the reports obtained
we're grouped together only five more
operators piowed in the fall than In
the spring, but the number Of acres
plowed in the fall averaged 2S.7 more
per farm. The number Of men using
horses as an auxiliary source of power
was practically the same in each ease.
Tractor Saves Labor.
Many farms have woodlands, and as
these are cleared the tractor Is used
for saving wood for market, thus in
creasing the days of belt operation.
The scarcity Of labor in 1918 ham
pered the gathering Of crops, and in
the states on the eastern edge Of the
corn belt the tractor was used TO a
considerable extent In the hay field, to
the exclusion OF horses.
AS corn is the principal crop in this
region, the effect Of the tractor on
horse labor will be more noticeable
in the case of this crop than that of
any other crop grown. the average
acreage of corn per farm of those Wis
tied being S3.5 acres, which is 80 per
cent of the tillabie area of these
farms. The remaining crops grown
on these farms, In order of crop acre
age, are: Wheat, hay, oats, barley
and rye.
Only the physical relationship of
tractor power to horsepower has been
considered, and no attempt is made
here TO compare the relative costs of
doing work by these sources of power.

This probably as much as anything
else will give some idea of the state
Of mind of the Western Canada farm
er, as he watches the tally from the
furnishing machine while his wheat 10
being carried to the elevator.
From all sections OF the country,
the most optimistic reports are re-
ceived. the local and city papers are
filled with reports from twenty to thIr-
ty bushels Of wheat to the acre, while
In some places oats are showing rec
ord Of as high as 100 bushels to the
acre.
Referring to Saskatchewan, II is con-
tidently expected that the wheat yield
will be nearly 125 million bushels.
Heavy rains which fell in districts that
did not promise so well In July, had
greatly improved the prospects there,
and there Is no question that paying
yields will be produced. The yields
in the eastern part Of the province
may not show to the advantage that
Will those of the western part, but
too much cannot be said Of this, for 1t
is the results as they come from the
machine. and often these prove happily
deceptive.
There is now every reason to believe
that the wheat crop of the three prai-
rie provinces will approach $50 mill
lion bushels.
Alberta will exceed the 20 million
bushels that had been looked for. The
average yield will be considerably
higher than 1t has been in the province
In any of the last four years.
The Department of Agriculture In q
recent report gave the opinion that 1t
cannot fall below twenty-five bushels
to the acre. and that 1t might easily
pass the twenty-five bushel mark.
Most of the wheat In the province
when the report was written, stood
well up to three feet high, and on
some fields was still higher. The re-
port goes on that In parts Of South
ern Alberta forty and fifty bushels to
the acre yields viii not be uncommon,
while there will be good many yields
Of from thirty to thirty-hye bushels
to the acre.
In the northwest part Of the prov
ince, in the country surrounding Bat
tleford and adjacent to the Canadian
National Railway line to Lloydminster,
and south the crops are excellent and
the yield will be heavy,
A larger than average wheat crop
