Bryant was cross examined by Mr.
Mann, Msrzoni's counsel, to show
that the bringing of food from the

There are several reasons foa. the
larger proportionate increase in immi-
grafton to North Dakota than to
South Dakota One reason is In the
natural resources OF North Dakota
and the superior quality 81 its soil for
stock raising and farming purposes.
Another reason Is IN the states con
sfstent policy OF advertising and en-
couraging immigration. Still another
lies In the activity of owners OF large
bodies OF land in bringing settlers TO
the state. And again. and one of She
most important, IS iii the liberal
policy OF the railroads operating in
North Dakota They have maintained
Immigration departments, built
branch lines even before they were
justified by the business to be done,
and contributed in every way possible
to the growth and advancement Of the
state. This was in their own interest
and in the interest of the state as we'll
