the Outlook.
Wyman & Ball, Fargo N. D.--Land values
ia tho Red river valley. and North Dakota
have advanced RAPIDLY ID the past Ave years.
Tor the simple reason that the earning power
OF these lands has recently begun to be ap-
preciated. There is no place on earth where
the farmers are in better shape than in the
Red river valley. 1t ts q nice thing to say OF
any country that want Is absolutely unknown
WITHIN It's limits. That Is the case in the
Red river valley and North Dakota. The soil
Yields bounnfully. The products OF this SEQ
ton are IN good demand at good prices IL the
markets Of the world. Farming can be car
ried on here with the least labor and the least;
expense.
me earning power OF any property tn q
great measure determines Its value. With
the homeseeker coming to North Dakota from
other states, he has the satisfaction of know
Ing that his first Investment need not be
great. He gets his land at a reasonable price.
IL produces crops which he can always sell
at living profit. His Investment is growing
better every day, because his land is in.
orcasing IN value continually. What better
opportunity can he desire? =. Z
Another fact about North Dakota whichsis
beginning to be appreciated generally is its
healthy climate North Dakota makes great
showing In the general health statistics. The
winter air Ia dry and the atmosphere of other
seasons contains none of the disease elements
Permeating the atmosphere Of other sections
Dakota has enjoyed milder winters than most
OF the northern states. Her summers are
! superb.

anticipate for the season Of 1902 the great
est movement in land that we have ever had
| IN this section of the state; not a speculative
boom, but the land will be taken by actual
settlers.
Irwin L. streeter, Wahpeton. N. D.-The
prospects were never better for selling land In
this locality than at the present, in fact we
are doing 1t, and from the amount OF in
qutries am receiving from investors and
eastern farmers, and from my agents reports,
believe we shall have the greatest lmmi-
grafton next spring the Red River valley has
ever known.
Clark County Land Company, Clark, S. D.
A great many people from Minnesota, Iowa,
Illinois and Wisconsin bought lands In this
county last year, and the prospect is that
more people will buy lands here this year
and establish homes here. Eastern people,
almost to q man, are greatly pleased with the
land. The railroads that pass through the
county have been, in fact, branch lines, and
the public has not known what the county
was like. The railroads have put on more
and better trains, and the result Is most sat
isfactory. The North Western is running a
frst-cass daily train, with sleeper, from Min
neapolis to Clark and Redf1eld. The town of
Clark is growing rapidly. the county is out
of debt and great many thrifty people will
locate here during the year. The outlook for
immigration into the state as a whole is ex-
cellent. .'
