Mr. Bradfuto stated that Greene county is one of the banner counties for raising com and the foremost for raising corn and wheat in the entire state. There are only two other counties that exceed it, . He said that few people realize the tre­ mendous magnitude of corn raised, evon in our own county.

More of the men said they were raising three stalks to a 'hill, but by procuring a number of ears of different weight he showed by the corn and figures that in pro­ portion'to tho actual yield of Greene county they are not producing three stalks to a hill and an ear of corn on each stalk, He said this is what all corn growers should .strive for, .and* the reason they do not produce these is because the seed is not good. .

In ail probability high grade seed corn is scarcer in Ohio this season than for many years. The principal cause for this is of course the cold, wet growing season of last year, to­ gether with the cool, cloudy fall. Had we had a different October an% November,. even, corn which did mature, or‘came close to maturity, would novfbein.very different seed condition. As matters st*# ! great care must needs be exercised or 1908 wlil.fi.rd Ohio with one ot the poorest corn crops in year*. “ Very many growers all over Ohio, fnd particularly in . the northern half o f tho.itate, w ill have to buy their seed corn. Such growers are confronted with a serious. question namely; W ill th is purchased, seed Corn prove adapted to the new local­ ity? Will it mature? And a still more serious question confronts all corn, growers: Will my seed corn grow? The Ohio Experimental Station is offering some suggestions along both lines m Circular 74which may be.had.

Put Your Money In a New Country Tho Pacific Coast extension of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St, Paul Railway now under construe* tionfopens to tho settler thousands of acres of excellent agricultural land. The newcountry in Adamf,, Hettinger, and Bowman Counties, North Dakota, and Butte County, South Dakota, is now reached by the new track, The soil is a dark loam with day subsoil, and produces in abundance wheat, " oats, barley, spelz, flax, corn and potatoes!1 Theland is well adapted to farming, good water is found at a depth of frqm twenty to fifty feet, and the whole country is underlaid with lignite coal that ont* crops along the streams, and in most cases can bqhad for the digging. The climate is healthful, the air is dry and invigorating, and the percentage of sunshiny „ days is high. Outdoor work can be done almost every day in the year. Rainfall is amply sufii> • cient to raise the crops. Regular mail service has been established, the roads are good, rural telephone lines traverse the country, and automobiles are in common use. The deeded land in this district sells for from $10 to $18 per acre. There are many instances this year where the crop equalled in value the cost of the land. - - In Butte County, SoUth~DaI:ota, there is considerable, government land open for homestead entry. Government land offices are maintained at Lemmon, Hettinger ant’ Bowman, where filings and final proofs may be made. All of these towns are on the new lim of the % Chicago Milwaukee & S t Paul Railway In Montana, the"newYallroad traverses good farming land. If has been demonstrated that big crops of grain may be raised. Along the Yellowstone and Mussellshell rivers, the water is used for irrigation, and phenomenal yields ofalfalfa, sugar beets, and grain, aro always certain. In tho Judith Basin near I#ewistown, Montana, is one of the most remarkable sections to be found on the new tine. Dnder natural rainfall, the famous bench lands produced this year ail average of 3$ bushels of hard wheat to the acre, and the price was 84 tents per bushel. The basin contains about 1500 square railed and is sparselysettled. Some government land still remains open for settlement. A'government land office is maintained at Lewistowtt, In Fergus County, outside the Jttdith Basin, is one of the greatest Stock countries in thoworld, and good ranches can be purchased at a reasonable figure. • The Chicago, Milwaukee &St. Paul Railway Co. has established an immigration department for tho purpose of assisting in tiie settlement 'and development of the new lands now being opened.
