acres at specially advantageous terms and

right kind of purchasers. There is no

For those who are ambitious to secure
a good farm, and are willing to work, no

corn in the state were produced last year.

those big counties are divided into smaller
ones and among those smaller ones it Is
safe to say that there are few making the
rapid strides forward that are being made
by Villas county. For several years past
the exhibits of Villas county at the state
fair have. been a just source of pride.
The old choppings have been cleaned up
and now are we'll stocked farms, while the
lakes and the streams furnish all that the

A. B. Rosenberg. of Arbor Vitae, one Of

that we can board cattle on this grass
for few months cheaply, and obtain in
the improved condition of the cattle,

prices, and where fattening can be cheap
~ accomplished it gives opportunity for
large profits.

Eight thousand acres of land. bought by
other parties for feeding purposes during
the winter, have been fenced and will be

be marketed in the fall at South st. Paul,
Chicago and Kansas City.

Nothing shows the development Of the
Far North better than the rapidity with
which new counties have been set off
from the older and large areas that once
ranked as counties of themselves. 1t is
only a few years ago that the greater
part of the North was in two or three
big counties, so big that when the sheriff
was wanted at the scene of crime, when
there was any one to commit it, he had
to be notified week before it was done
in order to get there within a reasonable

1t is better to own a low-priced farm
than to owe for a high priced farm.
You can own home in this section for

Grasses and clovers for grazing or hay

no chills, no feyers, no cyclones. no hail or

Fish and game in abundance. 1t is the

Thousands of settlers are moving into

land is increasing in value very fast.
The best class of people are among the
settlers which include principally Amer

Everything grown in the West can be
grown on these lands.
There is an unsurpassed market for all
