Thistle, Utah, Aug. 16, 1891.
Editor COURIER DEMOCRAT.
My Dear Friend: 1t is with the
greatest of pleasure read through the
CoURIER-DEMoCRAT Of the glorious
prospects Of Cavalier county land l will
say that although misfortune drove me
from Dakota 1 still thoroughly believe
that North Dakota will make the great
est farming state in the Union and that
Cavalier county will rank among the
first counties.and l would also say that
since leaving Langdon 1 have visited
the pictured West" that is. Montana.
Idaha, Colorado, Wyoming and Utah,
and there is not one of these states
which offers one-half the inducements
to the poor man who is seeking home
that North Dakota does. am farm
ing this year in Utah and 1 find that
the great secret of success in this coun-
try is this, Farmers never buy any,
thing unless they can pay cash for it,
and every farmer has either a few
sheep OF cattle which they can turn in
to money when it is wanted. For my
part North Dakota is good enough for
me and lam going to return and do as
the farmers Of this country do, buy
nothing only what can pay cash for,
and will bet, frost OF no frost, dollars
to cents, that can make AS good liv-
ing in North Dakota as the farmers dc
in any of the above mentioned states.
In regard to frost, would say that
Sand Pete county, of this state, now
one Of the finest fruit-growing counties
i'll Utah, a few years ago was similar to
Cavalier county. Four years out of
five they had their wheat, oats and bar
ley killed by frost coming on, one yeal
July oath. one year July Goth, one year
Aug. 3rd, and the last year on Aug. I.
Many of the settlers were compelled to
leave but those who could stay did so,
and to-day their land is worth from $40
to 500 and early frosts are an unheard
of thing. will close with the kindest
regards to yourselves and my friends.
Yours Very Truly,
CHAs. A. MORTON.

CHICAGO, Aug. 25-Trade was treated to a
surprise on Change today. The Indications at
the start were for continuation Of the weak

half an hour after the opening indications had

we're soft early, became wicked and strong be-
fore the close. December wheat which Mt one
time was down to $1.0s2i sold up to $1.06, and
closed at s1.o52l, the rise being due to sensa-

The late cold wave extended through
South Dakota, Kansas, Nebraska, and
as far east as Wisconsin. In many
places in those states the frost was
much more severe than it was here.
In 1890 Cavalier county had e7,15e
acres of wheat, 11,74S acres of oats and
4,040 acres of barley. This year she
has 81 ,l0S acres of wheat, 1906 acres
of oats, and 9,706 acres Of barley; an in.
crease of nearly 10000 acres.
Mr.. Max DeRepentigny has pur.
