THE CAMPAIGN FOR LANDS.

ST. Paul Globe: In order to con-
vince Iowa farmers that corn can be
successfully grewn. in the Northwest,
Minnesota and North Dakota, land
men and railway industrial agents are
promoting a large number Of expert
ments in the Red River valley and
various sections of North Dakota. This
has resulted in considerable increase
in corn acreage in the valley. The re-
port of the North Dakota department
of agriculture recently issued says
that 100000 acres is the estimated
corn acreage in that state for this
year.
The experiments In corn growing
% being made in the Red River
valley are progressing satisfactorily.
Iowa farmers who have visited that
section in the past weeks say that Red
