ally $1,000 in premiums only, not to

GRASS BEATS GRAIN.

Major Darling of Fargo: told our
Red River farmers ten years ago that
the western part of North Dakota
would prove better country for a
man to make money farming, in the
long run, than in the Red River
valley as long as every one raised
grain there and paid no attention to
stock or other farm products. They
are finding it out now, and will have
to come to it and farm the same as
farmers any where else. You can bet
on it that any man who goes into
grain raising alone will be broke in
ten years, or less, while the man who
gets small bunch of stock, keeps on
increasing them and devoting most of
his time to other farm work than
wheat and flax, will at the end of ten
years be well off. / think there is as
much money to be made off the cheap
grazing lands of this state as the
better class of farm lands. Grass
never fails and man has no worry
about crop failure OF low prices when
he has fat cattle coming on for the
market.

who died Saturday afternoon at 2
O'Clock, at the family residence here,
will be held in Emerson, Neb., the
old home. Mrs. Martin has been a
resident of this city with her husband

father the sincerest sympathy. De-
ceased leaves an only son s years Of

Minneapolis Commercial West. Re.
markable and apparently permanent
increase in business and steady rise
In the price of it's stock will result in
the 500 line spending $1,000, 900 for
betterments and equipment during
the present year.
UP TO two years ago 500 stock was
not regarded as particularly profit
able investment, the shares selling
low, the price of common stock being
under 20. But during the year 1901
common went up to 36 and it is now
S6. From no demand at all the busi-
ness in 500 stock has gone to 55l, 1864
shares OF common stock and 1853, 1894
shares of preferred stock handled in
one year-19O2.
Inc failure to get a dividend at.the
annual 500 meeting last summer
caused a good many Northwestern
holders to 'let go'' most of the stock
going to holders of Canadian Pacific
shares. The approach of dividend
declaring condition will mean sharp
rise IN 500 stocks if the northwest
attempts to buy back again.
Investors who bought heavily in
Twin City Rapid Transit are also in
clined to follow Thomas Lowry in his
500 line venture. These and MANY
other reasons have led the manage
ment of the 500 to the conclusion
that 500 stock will continue to go up
and 500 business to increase: and in
order to strengthen the stock and
meet the demands of would-be ship
pers in territory already reached, but
with unsatisfactory equipment, and
to enter territory not as yet touched
the management has prepared pro-
gram OF extension which will materi-
ally add to the strength of the 500
road in this territory.
This year the 500 will relay 1853
miles of road with 80 pound steel,
all Of this work to be done
west of Minneapolis; IL miles of side
track will be built; 300 miles of road
will be ballasted with heavy gravel;
o0,0oo yards of filling bridges will be
done.
This will be completed in l2O days
from the time the season opens this
spring, in time for the fall harvest.
There will be added to equipment
"a locomotives, l6 passenger coaches,
200 fiat cars and so refrigerator cars.
There will also be built in Mime
apolis woodworking shop, 75x15O

800 A HEAD PROFIT.

Dickinson Press: Perhaps the larg-
est individual land owner in this part
Of the state is A. L. Martin. of Senti-
mel Butte, who has thirty-nine Sec
tions of land, OF 24,96O acres. This
amount Of land, Mr.. Martin says, is
capable of grazing $4,000 sheep and
he figures that 81 per head profit on
sheep for a year is but fair average.
This enables the owner of 14,6OO
acres Of land to get yearly rental Of
Sl2, 900 to say nothing of the proba-
bilities of the land doubling in value
within a very short time, Still there
