The 500" Will Build,

When Ex-Governor Pillsbury of Mime
apolis was in Bismarck the other day he
said that the Soo branches would be built
to Bismarck and jamestown next season.
The company contemplates building about
1870 miles of road in the two Dokotas, which
will be important to the lumber trade. The
500 will be the first line to distribute the
Dakota coal over che southern half of the
state. The Chicago roads are fighting the
500 hard, owing to its connection with the
lumber, coal and wheat traffic. The road
will remain aggressive. He stated that
while it was difficult to obtain money for
building roads or moving crops, the east
had suffered more than the northwest from
the financial stringency. He advised
northwestern farmers to get sheep and to
irrigate the lands in the dry belts for
wheat raising. He thinks the quickest
way to obtain irrigation Is by organizing
companies, and he favors liberal govern
ment aid in irrigating the prairie states.
