WARD COUNTY AND ITS DEVELOPMENT; .--.
SPLENDID OPPORTUNITIES FOR POOR MEN

Ward county, North Dakota, is gen
orally called the 'Eempire" county, be-
cause it occupies one-twelfth the area
of the state. Excellent water can be
found anywhere in the county at a
depth of from twelve to fifteen feet,
and fuel abounds in every section. Lig-
mite coal, of which there is an album
dance, is tributary to Minot and is
shipped extensively thru the state, and
there are few farmers or ranchers who
are not. located close to a coal vein
and can get their winter supply very
cheap at the mines, and many of the
farmers dig it out Of the ground and
haul it to their homes. =
The eastern half of the county is
generally level, while the western half
is much more rugged and more suitable
for diversified or mixed farming and
ranching, altho there are many fine
farms and an abundance of farming
lands in the western part.
Ward county is the largest county in
North Dakota, and is larger in area
than Rhode Island, Delaware and the
District Of Columbia combined, and CON
tains $500 square miles. The Fort
Berthold Indian reservation lies in the
southeast corner and is not counted
The soil is dark, rich loan, about
eighteen inches or two. feet, with a
clay subsoil easily worked.
