ing institution in the state, and the
military buildings, constructed on such
an elaborate scale, assure the main
tenance Of soldiers at Bismarck for
many years, making the city the mills
tary center Of the state.
The Northern Pacific somestim ago
purchased the old Sheridan hotel prop
erty and will begin work On the cree
ton Of a new depot by May 4. Ar
rangements have been made for the
erection of a commodious and hand
some brick hotel, which will be ready
for occupancy before the legislature
meets next winter. a5
All this activity is not the result OF
speculation, Of government appropri-
atoms, or of any other artificial con-
ditions.s These, Of course, have as
sisted, but the real basis Of the i'm
provements being made is of a more
permanent and enduring nature. The
western counties are being. rapidly
peopled from the eastern states, and
+ the immense immigration to this
state this year the territory tributary
to Bismarck is receiving tssfull share.
There are hundreds of thousands Of
acres of fertile land in the Missouri
valley upon which settlers will make
their homes this year, The result
will be the steady and increasing
growth Of Bismarck, whose facilities
for serving as the distributing center
OF a large district are immense. The
position occupied by Bismarck as, a
great retail center, with the added adj
vantage of possessing state and ma
tional institutions of such Importance
will assure to lae city a constant and
satisfactory growth.

had fallen, and good rains fell in those parts
where the weather had been too dry. In d
few localities the weather is stiii too dry.
Warm weather forced the growth Of yege-
tation very rapidly. Wheat has nearly all
been harvested and much Of 1t has been
thTaShed. The Yield is generally larger than
was expected and the quality of the grain
Is excellent. Oats are ripening over most
Of the State ana harvesting has begun ii
the central and southern districts. The
yield promises to be large. though there
has been some loss by lodging.
Corn has grown very rapidly under the
very favorable weather conditions and hes
largely recovered from the effect of TOO
dry weather in some places and too wet
weather in others. 1t IS generally In good
condition of freedom from weeds.
Haytng has progressed rapidly and tho
