is based on evidence that cannot but
bring conviction to the minds of those
who have looked into this question,
and who, at the same time, understand
the requisites to successful stock rails
ing
And Of all Minnesota there is no part
better adapted to stock husbandry than
that portion OF the state which COM
prses Anoka, Aitkin, Benton, Bel
trami, Carlton, Crow Wing, Cass,
Cook, Hubbard, Itasca, Lake, Morris
ton, Kanabec, Mile Laos, Pine,
Stearns, Sherburne, St. Louis, Todd,
Wright and Wadena, in all 20 counties
out of the 80 counties in the state.
These counties cover an area of 25,-
5o9,421 acres. In all the state there are
53o43,37o acres. No apology, there
fore, is needed as to why one engaged
in animal husbandry should feel some
concern as to the capabilities of so
vast territory for live stock produc-
ton. He will certainly be pardoned
for having viewed the portions of it
through which he passed with a graz
ler's and feeders eye, and for asserting
to the proposition to give to the public
his views as to the adaptability of this
vast area for growing live stock and
live stock products.
Look at these counties as depicted on
various maps of the state, and you will
notice that much of this fine farming
country appears as uninhabited;
dreary region without town or village
or even township. To base conclusions
regarding so large a section of the
state on these representations of it one
would be prone to decide that it was
dreary wilderness, forsaken alike of
God and man, and yet in regard to
this very country l venture the predic-
ton that one day it will carry a popu-
lation that will not be exceeded by any
portion of the state of equal area that
does not include the populous cities
My attention was first drawn to the
capabilities of this region as a stock
producing country in the winter of
1884 while engaged in the work of
the farmers institutes and while yet but
few months in the state At some of
the meetings some statements were
made by the farmers regarding crop
production which arrested my atten-
ton, and, in fact, aroused my curl
osity. | knew that if these statements
were true, and | had no reason for
doubling them, the locality which could
produce such products was singularly
we'll adapted to stock husbandry, more
especially when in forest country,
which can furnish protection for live
stock such as can be obtained from no
other source. And these statements
seemed all the more surprising for the
reason that I had been led to believe
= by persons who assumed to know, that
we were IN region that was not of
very great account, viewed from the
standpoint OF the agriculturist. But the
evidence supporting the claims of this
country to singular adaptability as
stock producing region is piled up high
at the several exhibits made at the
state fair held at Hamline each wear.

tame grasses have been generally grown
by the farmers. But at manv n1aces

patton and for this reason one especial
ly adapted to women. According to
most writer's, it hardly involves more
labor than the mere planting and gath

depicted as enormous. The articles, as
a rule, wind up with a few glittering
generalities about hundreds of women
who live in New Jersey and who not
only support themselves by this means,
but even manage to clothe themselves
in silks and satins. Actual research
among the wholesale florists reveals an
interesting fact. "Women violet grow

New York market with no fewer than
$4,000 of these flowers. In addition,
she broke the record for large and per-
