A FEW FACTS.

North Dakota sends out greet
ing to all the world, Offering land
to the landless and homes to the
homeless. Here is to be found
the most fertile soil on the CONT
nent. There are no forests to fell,
no stumps to pull, no rocks to pile
and haul away. Instead of having
to clear up land you will find it
already cleared and ready for the
pillow. Here you will find lands
that can be bought from SIS to $l2
an acre and thousands of acres of
government land to be obtained
free. This will not always be.
The country is rapidly being
settled. In a short time all the
public lands will be taken by
settlers. Then land will appre-
ciate in value. It will go up, up
as it has in the middle west.
Twenty years ago land in northern
Town was held at lower prices than
it is here at this time. Now that
same land is held at $50 to $40 an
acre The day of cheap land is
passing away. Now the opportu-
nifty is offered to all to obtain farm
holdings that will in ten years
treble and quadruple in value, and
go on increasing in price as the
years pass away.
There are hundreds, yes, thou
sands of young stalwart men in the
eastern and other older states of
the Union, who, if they but knew
the opportunities which North
Dakota presents to them, would be
crowding every train, running
over every line Of railroad thai
leads into the great Northwest
There is no chance for them te
ever become independent home
holders, where they are now, M
matter how hard they work, while
here they can accomplish in a few
years what they cannot in tn
east by a lifetime of toll ant
drudgery.
North Dakota stands in tn
front rank Of agricultural states
All kinds Of cereals and vegetable
grow in abundance. While it
not a timber country, trees groN
rapidly. There is an inexhaus
tible supply Of Ignite coal. TIL
native grasses are rich and nutri
