South Dakota is after settlers for it's
unoccupied lands. Thousands of young
men and tenant farmers of the middle
east are on their way or soon will
come west for farms. Many have al
ready decided to locate in South Da-
kota, but the majority is open to con
viction and will look around time be-
fore selecting future home.
The state never had a better oppor-
tunity to secure settlers of the right
sort and the men of the middle east
will have no such opportunity again to
buy good lands and make the first start
toward independence in life. Here are
all the elements for a, successful immi-
grafton movement.
Given the proper cooperation by the
real estate and other business interests
of South Dakota, T Ed journal will
conduct follow up campaign for new
settlers for that state that cannot help
but bring results-that will turn hun

four good, live restaurants that are open

South Dakota bears the distinction
of producing, year after year, more
wealth per capita than any state in the
union. The production of cereals,
potatoes, hay, fodder, livestock, butter,
eggs, poultry, minerals and other prod
ucts for the past three years has ;av-
eraged nearly $12o,0oo,000 annually.
Estimating the population, as given by
the last census at 401, 900, the per cap
tia production is over $500.
The actual per capita production in
1901 by the most conservative esti-
mates was 1884. Counting the popula-
ton at four and one-half persons to a
family, it would give the sum Of 81 ,27S
as the average earning for the head OF
each family or household.
It is small wonder then that South
Dakota is the most talked of state be-
tween the two oceans, young, hustling
commonwealth that has lived down all
that was ever said against it-and that,
mighty little. Today the state ranks
with the great agricultural states of
Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Nebraska and

Lund s Land Agency has accom-

has adopted right methods and has con-
Quoted it's business on large scale. It
has not waited for the, buyer or. land
seeker to come on his ~own motion, but
has invaded all sections Of the middle

since then branch offices have been
established all over the northwest and
headquarters opened in Minneapolis,

MIR. Lund's Success.
Mr. Lund is widely recognized as one
Of the brainiest and most resourceful
realty men in the northwest. His meth
dds have been unique and have led to
consistent development which has
been almost a marvel: He is .thoro-
going western maj tf indomitable en-
ergy and, push. He knows all about the
west and there is not an industry or
pursuit which he has not studied or a
locality of worth which he has not ex-
amined. Minnesota and the Dakotas
and other parts of the west are as an
open book to him:
Born in Minnesota, he was resident
of South Dakota in the early boom days.
His vast business started from small
office at Candy which he opened when
little more than a boy in 1887. Hun
dreds Of men had the same opportuni-
ties, but have fallen short of the. same

elected to the legislature, his abilities
and the peculiar mettle Of his characi
ter at once commencing him to the
people and giving him a commanding
position in the front rank of citizen.

Pierre, S. D., March III landed in
Pierre the morning of the 18th inst,
finding one Of the best wide-awake bust

visit for many moons. Thrift, energy

words of every man in Pierre. I spent
one day looking over this city, and
want to say that I was surprised.
Pierre is certainly destined to be one Of
the best cities in the entire northwest.
On looking up Pierre street you see one
of the finest courthouses in the state.
One block west of the courthouse a

government building, for which an ap,
preparation of $ls5,00o has been made
by the federal government. Two blocks

Land values in South Dakota, in the
country tributary to the Chicago, Mil
yankee & st. Paul road, cover such a
wide range that the investor is able to
find some land at any price he has decid-
ed to pay. Improved land may be bought
for $40 an acre, and from that price up
to $75 an acre, according to extent OF
Improvements and nearness to railroads.
Qnimproved and grazing lands sell from

South Dakota now offers opportuni-
ties that cannot last much longer.
Farms suited for general agricultural
purposes can be bought for small
price compared with figures at which
they will sell in the near future. Home
seekers are pressing in upon them and
railroads are being extended rapidly. It
all means higher prices for land.
There are large areas of land, good
for diversified farming, along the Chica-
go, Milwaukee & St. Paul system, which
may be had at low prices on easy pay
ments. Such lands are as sure Of crop

Much of Mr.. Lund's success as a

quaintance. The plan is one which
bears the closest scrutiny and investi-
cation and is explained in the most
satisfactory manner.
The plan, to state it briefly, is this:
That thru all of these wide-awake, en-
ergetle, laborers with Mr.. Lund, lands
are offered at their different offices at
Fvalues far below their actual selling
price. There are always those who are
