Wscott3s Sons FAMILY SIZE mm LETTER FROM A FORMER CASS COUNTY FARMER Crop Prospects in Minnesota Very Good and Bids Fair to Improve. De Graff, Minn.; July 10, 1911. Editor Plattsmouth Journal: Dear Sir: I have been reading crop reports from different states and find so many report a failure on account of dry weather, that I will give you a few facts concern ing crop conditions in Swift coun ty, Minnesota. We have had all I he rain we need here this sum mer and we have had ideal weather for growing crops; and if we have no hail storm before July 20 Swift county will harvest a crop of small grain that any community may be proud of. The corn crop is also looking fine and bids fair for a good crop. Plowing corn for the fourth and last time and making hay is the order of the day now. Some early oats will do to cut about July 15. Wages are good here, $35 per month for eight months, or $50 per month through harvest, or $2.50 by the day and board. Of late I have had some inquiry from Cass county in regard to crop conditions here. This will answer all inquiries, if you see fit to give this article space in your paper. Respectfully, F.M.Young, De Graff, Minn. Threshers Are Busy. Things are rather quiet in Mur ray these days, owing to the farmers being so busy in the harvest of their big wheat crop, but some are beginning to haul to town now and within a few j days the wheels of business will begin to grind as never before for a great many years. We are informed that six threshing crews were working near Murray on Wednesday. Some whenf trnm the Ramge place, east of Mur ray, grown by Ramge brothers, was delivered in Murray Wednes day, and from 43 acres the hoys threshed 91( bushels, the yield not being so great as the quality of the grain. It is going 63 pounds to the bushel; one load that measured 45 bushels al the machine went 5i at the elevator, nearly a 20 per cent increase. See Jennings' for "Wear-Ever" ware.
