greater value than they are. now, for
honey was then the chief IL not the

Some Of the laws OF old Irelandt 50

the subject OF bees, which shows how
important as well ais Industrious were
these busy Insects Every owner OF
bees was req1ired to distri bnte some of
his honey among his neighbors every

AN IMPORTANT MEETING

Every Section Of the State Should Pc;
Represented at the Real Estate
Dealers Gathering at Bismarck. .5
The Importance OF all cities and
towns being represented at the meet
ing to be held at Bismarck, February
7th and 9Th, should commend itself;
to all those interested in the promo
ton, and development of this state,f
says the Mandan Pioneer. The pur-
pose Of this assembling Of real estate
dealers and business men is TO evolve
plans and discuss methods as to the
best and most feasible way OF present
ng the innumerajble claims Of North
Dakota inducing farmers and capital
lists, to become settlers and other
wise creating a greater demand Tor
the soil of this great state. The last
Legislature appropriated $40, 900 for
the purpose of promoting immigration.
Each section Of the state Is interested
I'm the development Of that particular
section and all are anxious FOR the
Development OF the entire state. Real
estate men are spending many thpus-
aGds of dollars in advertising through
eastern newspapers and periodicals.
They are sending out hundreds Of
agents to tell Of the advantages the
state offers to the homeseeker5 and
investor. Each firm is acting separ-
ately and indep evidently The state
desires to aid and assist in this great
dissemination Of facts, figures and ex-
periences. It wants to CO cooperate
with the real estate men, So as to
produce the greatest results. Real
estate men should formulate some
plan by which they can act In concert
and thereby secure larger and better
returns for the expense which they
incur. This is the purpose OF this
meeting. Canada has the best organ.
lied system of getting settlers that Is
in existence today, simply because its
system, while having Thousand DIFF
ferent branches, is under one con
trolling directorate There the real
estate men and agents work in har-
mony, and the results demonstrate
the effectiveness Of cooperation. Too
much stress can not be laid on the
impor tance of this meeting and Ii
properly attended should be the
means Of bringing thousands Of new
lsettlers to this state.

been run for the past ten or twelve
