Some Matters Concerning q Thriving
Minnesota City.
Perhaps one of the best advertised
counties in Minnesota, and deservedly
so, is that of Stevens, having for, its
seat of government the city of Norris
with a population of about 1900 people.
The soil of Stevens county, a heavy
black loan and warm, is particularly
adapted to the raising of wheat and
other cereals. While many sections Of
the state during the past decade have
suffered, from time to time, an almost
total failure of crops, the county of Ste
vens has been very fortunate, and It's
farmers, during the most unfavOrable
seasons have had more than enough to
keep the wolf from the door. Almost
at the close Of the seasons
work has the balance been on the right
side, while the year now drawing to a
close has been one Of most extraordi-
nary returns from the farming lands Of
that region of our state. Stock raising,
which has not been very extensively en-
gagged in. is fast growing in favor in
this Young and progressive county and
promises to reach an extensive scale.
and that, too, in the near future. While
1t is practically prairie country, yet
fuel is procured at a very reasonable
figure. and no drawback whatever is
caused in this direction. In the matter
Of railway facilities this county is we'll

Of Stevens county like nearly all sec
