usually regulated by distance and To-
cation. The cheaper the land the
greater the distance from civilization
and its comforts, and the longer the
wait and the greater the cost for i'm
provements. Sometimes the wait is so
. long and the expense is SO great that
the homemaker becomes weary and the
family disheartened.
Mothers and little ones are not in
vited here to enter a wilderness. A
greater combination of advantages can
not be found than good soil, pure water,
trees, rural mail delivery, schools,
churches and markets all at hand.
Coming to Wright county no longer
means hardship and adventure. 1t
g means the Improvement of an oppor-
tunity. There are two railroads in the
county. The Great Northern, the prin-
cipal railroad in the Western country,
crosses the county from east to west
in the northern and southern parts of
the county, while the 500 line crosses
through the central part of the county
thus giving the best of markets to
the farmers and cheap freight. This
county is acknowledged to be one of
the best stock and dairy sections Of the
state. There is more stock shipped
from this county than any county in
the state, and fine farming country
producing all kinds Of crops.
Soil.
The soil is adapted to raising pota-
toes, corn, oats, rye, wheat and an
abundance Of hay. The soil is a rich
black loan, and in some sections a
clay subsoil.
Timber.
The county is plentifully timbered
with hard and soft wood and watered
by lakes and streams. The schools of
the county rank with the highest of
the state, making it one of the finest
counties for settlers who desire these
privileges. Any one wishing further
information would do well to CORE
spond with c. E. White, of Monticello,
who will give the fullest information
needed. But, remember, this is the
county to come to, and now is the
time to buy farm land.

tial minority opposed to union on the
terms proposed. The opposition is
based principally upon the ground that
