THRESHING is ON
THROUGHOUT McCONE

Threshing of McCone County's Big
1922 crop is now on, and judging by
reports of yields coming in, this year S
crop is not half bad
The yields vary considerable, but
to say that the average for wheat will
come around the twenty mark, is
not going to miss it very much. Crop
reports from over In the Hamblin
Cow Creek and Sand Creek country
gives wheat yields of from Is to 20
bushels. The Riverside and Vida COM
munities have splendid crops and
wheat is yielding from % to 35, with
oats around the go mark. On the John
Schillinger farm near Vida, wheat
averaged 27 bushel to the acre. Paul
Krebsbach, one of the Vida bankers
had a piece of wheat on corn ground
that made 81 bushel, machine meas
ure.
Around Circle not much threshing
has been done yet, but wheat SO far
is yielding 20 to 25, Ludger Gorron
had a patch of volunteer wheat that
made IL bushels. Up Horse Creek we
hear that Breitbach had wheat that
made % bushel.
In some communities the labor sit
uation has been hard one to solve,
but by Exchanging work., most of
the farmers are managing to get by.
Corn Is proving to be a big and
satisfactory crop again this year, and
in nearly every community through
out the county will be found big fields
of fine corn. We look for truly won
derful showing of this product at the
county fair
In order to tell the world what we
can raise here in McCone we wish
everybody having good yields would
send them in SO we could report
them each week. Therefore kindly
send in your crop reports, as soon as
you have threshed.

All Set For
The Biz Fair
Exhibits viii Be Surprising. Barbecue
and Entertainment Features viii
Be Worth Going Long Ways To
Attend


In less than two weeks the 4th
Annual McCone County Fair will be
on, and there is every reason to be-
lieve that this years fair will be
equally as good as any heretofore.
The showing of McCone County
products, can be made to excel any
previous showing if enough interest
is taken to bring in exhibits of var
ious kinds. Special effort should be
made on corn, to make as good a
showing as possible, or i'll all depart
ments for that matter, as the best of
what is shown at the county fair will
be taken to the state fair at Helena,
and we certainly want McCone Coun-
ty products to be such, that they will
attract attentions at the State Fair.
The premium list was issued last
week, in which will be found many
liberal prizes. This week a number of
special prizes by the business firms Of
Circle has been added making it all
the more worth while to compete and
try to get away with the blue rib
bOns
While attending the fair Circle will
again make an effort to entertain her
guests and has already raised several
hundred dollars for that purpose. A
meeting of local people was held last
night, at which G. M. Gilbert, J. J.
Kendig and Otto King, were selected
to have charge of the entertainment
and sports program and are now busy
making arrangements for your enter
tainment while at the fair.
There will be attractions of various
kinds, a lineup of which will be given
next week. 1t has already been decid-
ed to put ON a big Barbecue, Which
heretofore has always been one of
the big events of the Fair, that has
always proven big success. Two of
the finest steers ever raised in Nc
Cone will be roasted for the barbecue
by Ed. Payne, our popular Undersher-
iff, who is a man that is an expert at
the business. This event will come off
on Friday evening, long about five
o'clock. just before you plar IN going
home.
An effort has been made to procure
band music for the occasion but so
far have not been successful, but it's
possible band may be on deck yet.
Two big ball games will be played
between the crack Weldon team and
Circle. One game each day and they
are going to be real games too.
We realize the fair comes at time
of the year when everybody is busy,
but at that, we believe it well worth
your time to take at least one day
off and come in for the doings. Come
and by all means bring the best you've
got for exhibit. Don't take it for
granted that somebody else has bet
ter products than you have, they may
not.
Prominent speakers are expected to
be here from the Agricultural college
at Bozeman, and their talk will un-
doubtedly be well worth hearing.
Tell your friends to meet you at
the fair, and we'll be looking for you
ON both Thursday and Friday, Sep
tember 21st and 22nd.
