The abundant nutritious grasses and clovers
together with the climatic conditions and
the abundance of pure waters combine to
produce this result I know of no place where
persons OF limited capital, industrious and will
ing to work hard and faithfully are SO sure of
making good home as in our new north It is
nota country for one to speculate in farming
lands, nor should one who wishes to live an easy
life settle there.
In closing let me urge the homeseeker to take
plenty of time in looking up tract of land
where he may choose to stay many wears and
call it home during his whole life time. There
are poor lands in northern Wisconsin which
should be carefully avoided Sandy lands with
sandy subsoil should be let alone-as should
some Of the deeper, more useless swamps OIn
some districts there gravelly ridges that
dry out when rainfall is scant, producing crop
failures. Sometimes there is good soil too
thickly strewn with powders, to be satisfactory.
The settler need not locate on such land, but
should secure that of higher grade. This he
can do it he will move carefully and deal only
with reliable firms or individuals. Surely the
selection Of the home spot is one that should be
carefully made, due consideration being.given
to each important point in the proposition. If
the conditions which / have here laid down are
disappointed if he chooses to locate in any of
the northern counties of this state

In these days low priced and really good farm
ing lands in America are becoming rare and dltfl-
cult to secure. Many farmer on a mortgaged
farm and many young man starting in life, wish
es to own a piece of unincumbered land which
he can truly call his own. Just now there is
considerable movement to the far west and to
British Columbia, land seekers seeming unusual
ly anxious to secure prairie lands. Fora certain
class of people these prairies lands are all right.
Such people have been wheat growers and take
their chances on getting ahead by growing sin
gle crop. They have been wheat growers in the
northwest and desire to continue in that occupa-
ton. There is another class of people who pre-
fer to follow mixed farming. They wish to
secure lands that give them abundance of wood,
cheap lumber, sure supply of water for crops,
their animals and themselves. They are not
willing to 60 to semi-arid region where only
two crops out of five are assured, but prefer
district where vegetables of all kinds for their
table and hay for their live stock are as sure to
be grown each year as the sun is to rise and set,
or the seasons to follow one another. For the
patient thrifty homeseeker who wishes to take
the fewest chances and have the largest chances
of success on his side, know of no better region
than northern Wisconsin. To all that think
Northern Wisconsin is too far north and too cold
for farming, let me ask them to get out map Of
America and study it little. Let them first
look at the location of Wisconsin with reference
to the whole continent, then run the eye north
westward over the map until Winnipeg is reached.
Then pass it twelve or fifteen hundred miles
northwestward from Winnipeg, and they will

see where settlers are crowding in to follow
farming. If people can grow crops twelve
hundred miles northwest of Winnipeg what is
the use of talking about northern Wisconsin be-
ing too far north? I have recently been in
only little ways south of James Bay, which is
branch of the great Hudson Bay.
One wishing to build home on a farm should
always aim to get as near good markets as
possible. Such are to be found in the vicinity of
Lake Superior because of the enormous timber
and iron resources of that region. Transports
ton rates are reasonable and markets sure.
These are of the highest Importance in counting
up the factors of successful farming cOmmun-
ity. Until one has seen the privations and
suffering for wood and water common in the
semi-arid regions of the vest he cannot appre
ciste the value of an abundance of these to the
settlers. AS to the crops that can be produced
in Bayfield, County, let Kentucky blue and
timothy grass, red, alsike and white clover
be placed first, for these all grow naturally and
in the greatest abundance. With but little care
farmer can secure good hay crops. Next
comes potatoes and root crops, which are entire
ly at home in this region. Corn will never be-
come a leading crop in the extreme northern
part of Wisconsin, but nevertheless it will be
extensively grown on the warmer soils when the
