I ) . , July iD.-Special.-The ( ) farmers of South Dakota , encetmraged by time lecreaseti twice of wheat and time excellent yield In most portions of the state last year , largely Increased their acrage this seasoim , This Inercaso is estimatetI at about 15 iwr cent , or practically 1,000,000 acres over last year. This places time acreage in wheat for this year at about l0,000,000 , Estimates made at the present time mit time total wheat yleiti of time state this year at. iwac- tienlly 40,000,000 bushels. Last year it was only 21,000,000 , although time estimnato about time annie time before harvest as thin iresent placed it at OOOOOOO bushels. The estimate - mate of 40,000,000 bushels is baeti upon re- suits withoUt severe climatic conditions to tlainage the grain , anil in case such comidi- tiomis do not occur ithin time imext three seeks , that estinmate is called conservative. Timis would give an average yield over thmo state of thirteen bushels ier acre. Some sections will not show such a yield , wimile others will ho above it and the average kept up , The southern nmmtl eastern counties of the state arc lii the best shape , amid wihi. show an average above timirteemi bushels , whiio the northern anti westerim counties will run below this average. On account of the lack of precipitation for Juno many fields 1mm thio section of the state mierth and west of Beadle county wili be poor , seine of them not being worth cutting , especially where it was put in carelessly , anti on time surface. The rains in this section of time state for that month were all local , anti fields within a few mnhies of one another show a marked difference , some of them coining up to the best in the state , while others will not be cut. The precipitation for Juno Is shown by both time Pierre anti huron ofilces to be practically three inches below norimial. While there have beemi reports - ports of hot vinds , no genuine hint 'inti hiss swept over the state this season , but the temaperaturo has been very high , mmii the lack of precipitation has left many of tho.grain fleltiB in poor shape. This estimate of time grain yletl ! for the state is only upon the territory east of the river , anti the Black llilis section will add considerably to this. Iltmt little of tIme graiim in that octioii is shmippoti out , most of it being tied at home. Whllo the dry weather in June injured the wheat crop in vortiomms of the state , it has had no verceptiblo effect on corn. There was suiflclent rainfahi in May to give corn a good start , and the hot veather in Juno diti not affect It. While there is no estimate - mate to be secured of the acreage or probable - able yield for the state it is estimated by by those who have been oumt over the state. at a larger acreage , and fully as good a yield as for last year , when it 80- 000,000 bushels. Potatoes and millet are reported to be in the best of shape and not at all imijured by the tlry hot weatlmer. The grass crop is of a great deal of he- portanco in the range portions of the state , and during the dry weather of Juno a shortage was feared , but the native grasses soon make a showing with sumciont mm- fail , and with the heavy rains of the first of thmia month came out finely , relieving any apprehension on that score. Taking the whole state over , unless the next three weeks bring disaster to the cr01 , , the harvest wiii be an immense emme for South Dakota , and the farmers will have a Drofltablo 'ear.
