DEMAND FOR FARM LAND.

The process of filling up now going
on all over Minnesota is tho most
hopeful sign OF prosperity which has
appeared for many years. In all the
older portions OF the state vacant
lands are being taken up eagerly.
The school land sales have never been
attended by so many people, and
prices range from seven to twenty
dollars per acre for wild or unim-
! proved lands. Vacant lands owned
by spectators are being picked up,
where the prices are not too high,
and there has been a healthy advance
in prices all along the line. just why
this movement is taking place, in the
face Of the bitter complaints which
fill the newspapers regarding the
great depression in agricultural in
terests is not clear, but there seems
to be general impression among
practical farmers that f,,rming il a
fairly good and safe business and
that land is good property at pres.
ent prices, and there is no question
that the practical farmer is right
