GREAT WEALTH OF MINNESOTA'S FARMS Experts Estimate the Products of | Minnesota’s Agriculture to Be Worth $350,000,000 _— PRODUCE VALUE FOR 1913 Potatoes... .. .. $15,000,000 Oats.. . 22,500,001 LUT 3 ae ee eRe 5,000,000 63,000,000 17,000,000 1,700,000 . 18,000,000 Flaxseed.. .. 9,000.000 Hogs.. i «+ 15,000,000 Cattle and calve « 15,000.000 Sheep.. 500,000 Wool. 1,600,000 Poultry and eggs Dairy Products.

The above table was compiled by more than a score of experts. Among those who have made an ex- haustive investigation of the sit- uation are Dean A. F. Woods of the state farm school; Prof. T.L. Haecker, in charge of the dairy de- partment at the farm school, and William Magivny, president of the union stock yards at South St. Paul, Aside from wheat and barley, the experts say practically every- thing will be grown in larger quan- tities than formerly and better prices will prevail. With the pos- sible exception of flaxseed, the above figures will be within ac- curate range of what 1913 will show when the Minnesotacrop is ali harvested. ‘ In the whole United States there is not probably a man better qual- ified to estimate Minnesota’s dairy products than Prof. Haecker. The estimate of dairy products is based upon the production of 1,125,000 cows. A minimum estimate of the dairy products has been placed at $50,000,000 for the year. Prof. Hae- cker believes the output may ex- cred the $5,000,600 in fae above estimate. Some idea of Minnesota’s potato crop can be had when it is rea- lized that 25,000 carloads of pota- toes will be shipped out of this state this year. A much larger price prevails for potatoes now than at this time last year and it is ex- pected spuds will bring fully 25 per cent more than in 19412. A The estimate on poultry and eggs made by the farm school, al- though $2,000,000 over 1912, is con- sidered in many quarters to be too low. The poultry and dairy busi- ness in Minnesota has shown the greatest of all gains and is push- ing ahead rapidly. This department at the state farm school is under the direction of N. E. Chapman, one of the leading poultry men of the country. There will be a slight falling off in wheat this year and also barley, but nothing of any consequence as the wheat crop will run over $60,- 000,000. The second hay crop this year is said to be the best in the history of the state. The best laughing show booked at Village Hall this season is “Sis Perkins.” e |south, the winners being presented year will produce more than $380,- | FARMERS DAY AT | BOVEY SEPTEMBER 1 Labor Day The Range Town Wil Put On The Second Annual Affair of The Kind. Oi Labor day, Monday, Sept. 1— Bovey will hold its second annual Farmers’ Day celebration. Last year’s effort proved so much of a jsuecess and created so much inter- jest among the people in the farm- ing possibilities of the section sur-| rounding the village that the busi- ness men, have decided to make the } day an annual event. Large crowds }were present from all over }county, and the enterprising citi-| |zens having the matter in charge this season intend that the ce bration shall be bigger and better than the former attempt. The | |citizens of Bovey extend a cordial | {invitation to the people . of other communities to come and help to }make the affair a success. A free {dinner is offered all attending and ja free dance will be given for the | |farmers in the evening. | There will be a base ball game |between the farmers living to the jnorth of Bovey and those from the | |with a mask, mitt, ball, bat and | chest protector by the Bovey Hard- and j;ware company.

It also shows a falling off in the amount of butter made, but a nice gain in the sale of milk and sweet cream. The creamery in fact is {unable to supply the demand al- though a dray load of from 12 to “48 ten gallon cans go out on the “Merry Widow” six mornings in the week. Dairy products are sure to be high for some years to come and since it is comparatively }easy to raise an abundance of feed here, the farmer who keeps and Hcares for a herd of good dairy cows is going to make money and increase the value of his land every year. Our market location is the best, train service good, and there is a wonderful future in the |dairy business right here for the farmer who is willing to “go to it” and keep cows enough so that he can afford to make a business of it. There were 53 patrons deliver- ing milk and cream to the cream- ery during the first two weeks of July, and of these the following received over $15 for the term: J. D. Hinegardner, $29.46; Neil Mullins, $43.00. N. C.X. Farm. $89.0% Hoolihan & Peterson, $81.57; George Heinzelman, $25.09; H. A. Wilman, $18.48; Wm. Cronkhite, $16.97; Wm.

The Walker Pilot is authority for the statement that the pro- posed Soo short line from Minne- apolis to International Falls will open up a portion of Cass county, according to the surveyors who have been working in this county. While the road will not strike any town in the county with the excep- tion of Tobique, it will pass near Longville and Emily and will pro- vide a market for the many farm- ers in that section. The road has already been built to Anoka and it is now doing busi- ness over 15 miles of rails. From Anoka it will penetrate the Lake Mille Lacs region, through the eas- tern part of Cass county until it strikes Tobique where it will cross the Duluth-Thief River Falls branch and head straight for Inter- national Falls through Itasca and Koochiching countties. There is a a large quantity of pine in this county in the territory embraced by this road and it is understood that the railroad has contracted to commence hauling these logs next ‘year.
