NAPAL'S PROHIBITION
OF AMERICAN CATTLE
Believes Them Responsible
for Virulent Tick Fever

NEW ORLEANS, June 20.-Aeting
British Consul James a. Donnelly noti-
fed Governor Heard yesterday that the
governor Of Natal, pending inquiry into
q virulent form Of tick fever prevailing
in Rhodesia, South Africa, supposed to
be from America. had prohibited the
introduction Of cattle from Louisiana
into Natal
There was a disposition in official cir
cles to think that the action OF the Ma
tai government was retaliation in con
sequence of Governor Heard's protest
against the British camp at Chaimette,
but there is no reason for believing this.
More than month ago complaints
came to the British veterinarian sta
tened here Of an outbreak of tick fever
in Rhodesia. and he was told to inquire
into the disease, which was said to pre-
vail In Louisiana, and to forward reports
thereon. The reports OF the Louisiana
Experiment Station were forwarded to
South Africa. It IS probable that the
people Of Natal really believe the dis
eaSe was brought into South Africa from
this country.

Western North Dakota an Ideal
Place for Raising Live Stock
of All Kinds.
What Chas. F. Ellis Of Mandan, Nor
ton County, N. D., Has
: to Offer.

The western half Of North Dakota is
veritable stockman's paradise. In no sec
ton of the United States Is there to- be
found a greater variety Of grasses, richer
in the elements calculated to fatten all
kinds Of stock, nor in greater abundance.
All the year around stock live on the
ranges. passing through the winter with
small loss as compared to other sections.
Thousands Of cars Of cattle, horses and
sheep are annually shipped from the
country west Of the Missouri river, where,
besides the exclusive stock raiser, nearly
every farmer has his bunch or cattle,
sheep or hogs in addition to his farm.
The following Associated Press dispatch
tells the story: III: -

Wyman & Ball, Leading Real Es'
tate Men of Red River Valley.

Wyman & Ball-John Wyman and W. F.
and w. M. Ball-are leading real estate
men of Fargo and the Red river valley, the
most fertile and reliable section In the
great west. They handle North Dakota
and Minnesota farms and wild lands and
city property in. Fargo and Moorhead.
They make g. specially of investments for
non-residents.
The firm has several large and small
farms in the best parts Of the Red river
valley for sale. Crops never fall in this
section. It's corn took the second prize
at the Pan American exposition at Buffa-
10. The markets are as good as any In
iowa: and southern Minnesota, because
the valley is only $50 miles west Of Du-
lath, which is as good a market for farm
products as Chicago.
The Red river valley is not subject to
the early frosts and dry weather of the
far northern; and western regions Of the
west. The rainfall is ample and the sea-
sons are more than long enough to ma
ture all crops. The soil yields beautifully
and the farmer is never on the ragged
edge" He knows what he can count
upon; nature never denies him. He has
no chances to take and If he is industri-
Gus his success Is assured r.
Wyman & Ball advise their clients to
buy lands in the most desirable locality,
the famous Red river valley, for there
will be no 'off' years and no disappoint-
ments. Should they want to sell they are
assured of handsome profits.

been more Of a cattle country than any

Bad Lands Not Bad. :
This southwestern part of the state in
cludes the 5000 or 5000 square miles that
make UP the bad lands. Nevertheless,
these counties of Stark, Billings and Hit
finger contain some Of the finest grass
lands in the world. That the bad lands
are not so very bad may be gathered from
the fact that over 100000 head Of cattle
feed within this very region. While In
Minneapolis last winter Ernest Seton
Thompson, the traveller, naturalist and
author lecturer, stated that in his opinion
the soil is in places very rich and pro-
ductive, 80 that considerable areas may
be profitably cultivated. But for stock
raising nature in no other part OF the
world has designed such ideal conditions
He Is confident that the bad lands Will
take a leading part in making North Da'
kota one of the greatest live stock sec.
tons in the world. Already from $4,000 tt
10000 head of beef cattle are yearly
shipped from the bad lands herds.
