FARMING THAT PAYS.

t'For those who wish to engage
in agricultural pursuits. North
Dakota certinly offers today the
greatest advantages of any state
in the Union" Under this caption
the Dispatch of ST. Paul gives q
number of reasons that are here
with produced and cannot fail to
carry weight with landseekers of
the east who at present are unde-
cided as to what location in the
Northwest they will move to. ''Any
industrious and persevering young
man can soon pay for farm in
this state, even if he has but few
dollars to start with. Then, when
the land comes into his possess
sion it is ready to be farmed. He
doesn't have to clear it of trees and
stumps and stones. but can start
and pillow at once. This is a great
consideration. But what is of
equal Importance to the farmer is
that the soil is productive. It pro-
duoes big crops. The farm in
North Dakota that cannot be made
to pay for itself in two or three
years would be hard to find. There
are many instances on record
where the proceeds of single
years crop exceeded the cost of
the land on which the grain grew.
Back east the young man who
buys farm on credit is old and
gray before he can get out of debt.
These are facts worth thinking
about, but the average North Da-
kotan gives them little considera-
ton. They appeal to the people
who live in other states. however,
which explains why so many come
here every year in search of
homes !"

FARMERS up this way, who until
late years raised crops of wheat
down in the Valley figure it out
that the general alarm expressed
as to the crop outlook down there
laas been largely ove1drawn. One
of these parties in conversation
with the DEMOCRAT this week said
the conditions this spring recalled
"reminiscences of the spring Of
1896, which was nearly as wet and
backward as this record breaker.
Lots OF wheat was sown that
year, all along the Valley from
Pemblna to Grand Forks be-
tween June LIST and 10Th. This
late sown wheat matured and turn
out fair crop, yielding we'll and
was good grade. The party IL
terviewed said he had faith in the
Valley crop Of this season-beae.
ing in mind the 1896 experience
and should the present fine wea-
Their hold out there will yet be a
fair average of wheat harvested
down in the Valley this fall. Land
down there that is now too vet
to crop will largely be seeded to
flax, as that grain can be put in as
late as June 18th, with every
chance Of maturity. From this
there is no apparent reason why
the Valley needs to go way back
and sit down this year
