NORTH DAKOTA'S SOLID WORTH.

NOR LII DAkOIA 3 SOLlD NORIH.
Last month we called attention in
some extended correspondence to the
admirable opportunities offered by
North Dakota IN farm mo- tgage leans.
The rapid development of the state is
proved nowhere more fully than in
financial circles, both within the state
and in the east. A Chicago business
man, who, by reason of his CONNER
cial interests in North Dakota, is
we'll qualified to speak of its resour-
ces, says that about fifteen years ago
his corporation had over $4,000, 900
placed in that state, all drawing in-
terest and secured by Moth Dakota
land. At the present time is less
than 100000 remains, the reason
being that IN the section where tn is
large sum was originally placed,
the farming and mercantile popuia-
ton no longer require such heavy
loans The 5000, 900 thus paid off
has all been collected with scarcely
the loss of single dollar. The
remarkable increase of deposits Of
North Dakota banks and the system
of cash business which has become so
general in that state are indications
OF little financial Indebtedness. -
