                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Pursuant to Rule 10-01(a)(5) of Regulation S-X (17 CFR Part 210)
RAL Yield + Equities III Limited Partnership is omitting its
footnote disclosure.  The Registrant has presumed that users of
the interim financial information have read or have access to the
audited financial statements for the preceding fiscal year.
Copies of the audited statements will be furnished upon request.
The disclosure is being omitted since it substantially duplicates
the disclosure contained in the most recent annual report to
security holders, Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December
31, 1997.  No events have occurred (other than those discussed in
the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations) subsequent to the end of the most
recent fiscal year which would have a material impact on RAL
Yield + Equities III Limited Partnership.

In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements
presented herein reflect all adjustments necessary to a fair
statement of the results for the interim periods presented.






























                                 I-6
       MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
              CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RAL YIELD + EQUITIES III LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (the "Partnership")
is a Wisconsin Limited Partnership formed on April 29, 1985,
under the Wisconsin Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act.  The
Partnership was organized to acquire new and existing
income-producing properties.  The properties consist primarily of
restaurants (including land and building) leased on a "triple
net" lease basis (i.e. for the tenant to pay for maintenance,
repairs, real estate taxes and insurance) to chain restaurants,
including Hardee's, Pizza Hut, and Wendy's.  The Partnership also
owns and operates three mobile home communities located in
Wisconsin and Minnesota.  The Partnership's offering of limited
partnership interests to the public pursuant to the Securities Act
of 1933 raised $13,725,000, in which the above-described properties
were purchased for cash.  During 1993 four of the commercial
properties and one of the mobile home communities were sold.  In
1994 an additional commercial property was sold.  During the second
quarter of 1996 one mobile home park and the warehouse building
were sold.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

Properties acquired by the Partnership are generally intended to
be held from seven to ten years.  During the Properties' holding
periods, the investment strategy is to maintain (on the "triple
net lease" restaurant properties) and improve (on the mobile home
parks) occupancy rates through the application of professional
property management (including selective capital improvements).
The Partnership also accumulates working capital reserves for
normal repairs, replacements, working capital, and contingencies.

Net cash flow provided by operating activities for the six
months ended June 30 was $250,618 in 1998 and $245,443 in 1997,
primarily from earnings and depreciation (amortization).

As of June 30, 1998, the Partnership had cash of approximately
$190,000 representing undistributed cash flow, working capital
reserves, and tenant's security deposits.  Current liabilities
amounted to approximately $180,000.

The Partnership operates a Rocky Rococo restaurant in Milwaukee,
Wisconsin.  The restaurant contributed $54,210 to cash flow in
the first half of 1998 compared to $61,800 in the first
half of 1997.  The decline in cash flow is primarily due to
increased labor and related costs.

Results of Operations:

Gross rental revenues for the six months ended June 30 were
$392,929 in 1998 versus $377,465 in 1997.  Operating expenses,
excluding restaurant operations, from rental properties
for the six months ended June 30 were $191,172 in 1998 and
$196,240 in 1997.  The increase in gross rental revenues is
due to rent increases and improved occupancy at the mobile home
parks.

Net Income for the six months ended June 30 was $181,401 in 1998
and $167,026 in 1997.
 
The restaurant property on Howell Avenue in Milwaukee, Wisconsin
opened as a Rocky Rococo's in the fourth quarter of 1994.  Revenues
of $324,990 generated $40,566 of net income for the partnership
during the first six months of 1998 compared to revenues of
$300,168 and net income of $47,135 for the first six months of
1997.  The decrease in net income is due to increased labor costs
and promotion costs.

Inflation:

Due to the comparatively low level of inflation since the
Partnership commenced operations, the effect of inflation on the
Partnership has not been material to date.  Should the rate of
inflation increase substantially over the life of the
Partnership, it is likely to influence ongoing operations, in
particular, the operating expenses of the Partnership.  Most of
the commercial leases contain clauses permitting pass-through of
certain increased operating costs.  Residential leases are
typically of one year or less in duration; this allows the
Partnership to react quickly (through rental increases) to
changes in the level of inflation.  These factors should serve to
reduce, to a certain degree, any impact of rising costs on the
Partnership.
