CHRISMAN RAISES FINE CROPOF OATS Silver Lake Merchant Completes Successful Experiment F. M. Chrisman, the well known Silver Lake merchant, this vear under took an experiment several miles smith of his town in the way of planting oats. This is something that had never before been tried with any degree of success in that section, tut Mr. Chris- There are nine families ! man was so hopeful of the outcome h a sufficient -r.umher thut he planted the seeds over about of children to form a large school. whi:h it is 'uoced will be built in time for the fall term. Hundreds of acres of the fertile lands are being cleared of the sage-brush and fenced so that the rich native grasses can resced themselves, wells have been dug and a good supply of puie water obtained, gardens planted ami a general appear ance of prosperity on every hand. Very little grain was put in this year on account of getting the soil in shspe for sowing for next vear is very bright. The settlers are the kind that believe in doing things and letting the other fellow do the kicking. New Invention Wm. Rouse, of Abeit Lake, has in vented a wind pumoing machine that threatens to revolutionize everything in that line, in raining water upon the land for irrigation. The outfit consists of a series of large canvass wings that fold after thev have passed the effec tive points and where thev would re sist the wind in returning to the point 160 acres of land, plowing them in to a depth of ten inches. He now has as fine a stand as oi e would rare to see. thick and very high. He expects to obtain at least three housBnd bus hels, and at the price that oats are usually sold for in this locality it can be readily seen that the investment in this instance was a verv goud one. The oats will be harvested in two or three days now, and after the sucess that Mr. Chrisman has experienced it is hoped that others throughout the county will try the same stunt. Mr. Drenkle Leaves H. W. Drenkel. the well known real estate dealer who made the offer of a free site for the depot, has left for his bovhood home at Oneida.
