MAY BE STARTED DY NEXT ONDAY Ground Is Absorbing Moisture Rapidly and Stiff Wind Helps Prepare the Soil UNUSUALLY PROSPEROUS SEASON IS ANTICIPATED Demand for Good. Land Excellent —Large. Acreage of Corn and More Hogs Certain Spring plowing will ‘be well under way in the Missouri valley next week, unless old Eoreas should see fit to give_a final flirt of his heels, The bright sun and stiff wind of the last few days has dried out the soil mar- velously, and the fields will be in fine shape by Monday, with three more clear days. This condition is unusually fortun- ate, ing was done last fall. There is need for an unusually large acreage this year, and history has. proven that crops which are in as early..as the soil, bed permits do best. Millions more acres than were cultivated last year wilf ‘be brought under the plow this. spring. Large purchases of new lands have been made by Missouri valley farmers, and Jarge tracts here- tofore devoted to grazing will be broken. More Corn. It is safe to predict that the corn acreage in the valley will be trebled. Last fall's d trous experience with wheat will induce many farmers to turn from that grain to corn, which did unusually well in 1916, More cat- tle, hogs and horses are found on Mis- souri valley farms this spring than ever before, and corn will be needed to fatten ‘beef and pork for the mar- ket next fall. There will, too, be an extraordi- narily large flax acreage. Flax was one of 1916’s most profitable crops, a lifesaver for many who lost pra tically all their wheat. This fact, coupled with the large amount of new land to be broken, probably will mean a bigger acreage of flax than the Mis- souri valley has ever ‘before sown. Farmer Is Well Off. Despite the rust, which m proyé to have been a ble ng in di guise, the Missouri valley farmer well off this spring. Garrison last fail shipped 9 carloads of hogs. One MeLyan county farmer received $1,800 for;a carload of porkers which he 'sold i y in time Comparatively little fall plow-} for 13 cents at South St, Paul. Prime steers sold last fall netted their-own- era a: fine profit; and a lot of them were sold. There is a brisk demand for: farm lands, and it is . coming “principally from local farmers who desire to add a neighboring quarter or two to their holdings. ‘Real: estate prices, a local dealer advises, range 10 to 20 per cent higher than a year ago, and the call for the better class of farming, land, at $40 to $50 the acre, is double that of a year ago, Within the last. week a well known | Bismarck agent has sold a section in {McKenzie county at $50; a quarter section in MeLean at better than $50, jand a quarter in Mercer at $45, and several other deals at prices as good or ‘better are pending, The, outside {demand will come later, and there is | every indication that it will be good. | GOMPANY PROPOSED BY BISWARCK WEN I> Probable That Organization of Business: and Professional Folk Will Be Formed An independent rifle company, com- | posed of Bismarck professional and | business men who have, had previous military training, and which will con- stitute for the present a reserve force, not directly subject to the national guard, but which may apply later to be. mustered in as a distinct company, is a probability for the near future. The appearance of 6) Lismarck | bankers in the Fourth of July prepar- edness parade last summer originated the idea, which has gained new mo- mentum with recent developments. A company with a strength of at least 100, including principally those whose | professional or business interests will jnot permit them to give up the time necessary to membership in the guard, but who are thoroughly in ta- vor of the preparedness movement, and who wish to be in position to do i their share should necessity arise, can be organized without difficul Practically every man __ interested has seen service in the national guard or with the volunteers in the Philip- pines or the West Indies. They are men in the prime of life, between 30 and 45 years old; men who have a great deal at stake, and who may ‘be expected to form a splendid military reserve. The United States war department has been communicated with relative to the possibility of obtaining arms and uniforms for such a contingent, and a favorable reply is expected. If the plan is approved, it will be placed in Operation with little de and Bis- marck will soon have an excellent picked force which will form a s did . complement to Co. stands today among the finest mili- tary organizations the Northwest has produced, P= GRAIN markers ————__$_$_$________ MINNEAPOLIS, No; 1 Hard 5 210% @211% No: '¥.Northern . - 200% @204 4 No, Northern Choice... 208%'@210% Regular to arr » 19646 Choice: to arr - 2074 + No.2 Northern «196% @204% No. 3 Wheat. + 18842@198 % No,-2 Mont,:Hard \. - 202% @204% No. 2 Mont.
