HILL COUNTY. 



Box Elder Press — The outlook for a big grain yield is promising. The best crop 

 to date is the report of the yield of Borde Brothers who threshed an average of 54 

 bushels of Macaroni wheat to the acre, 150 acres. The yield on this farm was so 

 much greater than had been expected that all available storage room was used and the 

 grain had to be piled on the ground. The following yields have also been reported: 

 Wm. Glynn on 30 acres, 28 bushels wheat to acre; 30 acres on stubble, 18 bushels to 

 acre. John Murphy, 75 acres, 23 bushels wheat to the acre. Frank Kurtz, 100 acres, 

 39 bushels wheat to the acre; barley, 20 acres, 88 bushels to acre; oats, 90 bushels to 

 the acre. Oscar F. Harvey, 70 acres, 29 bushels wheat to acre. Jasper Nevins, 16 

 bushels wheat to acre. Edward Formanack, 240 acres, 16 bushels wheat to acre. J. 

 Jarosz, 36 bushels wheat to acre. 



Havre Plaindealer — Early reports of the excellent crops around Kremlin, 20 miles 

 west of Havre, are amply borne out by the results of threshing already done in that 

 district. From a gentleman prominent in the business life of Kremlin, and who is in 

 close touch with the farmers of that section, the Plaindealer is in receipt of the fol- 

 lowing list of grain yields in that district. The figures apply to winter wheat: Gus 

 Renner, 42 bushels per acre; Gus Renner 711/2 bushels per acre; Oscar Erlandson, 44
