Burleig,h { County

BURLEIGH COUNTY occupies a
south centrae position in North Dakota; ].
the Missouri river forming its western
boundary. lit was organized iii, 1875:
and was long considered out in the
cattle country 1t is a cattle country,
but ts adapted to the raising Of horses
too, and sheep and swine. And in the
last few years the residents and some
new comers have discovered that it
IS q dairy country, and grain country,
in fact good all around country to live
in and make money in. The growth of
the county was slow, the increase of the
last five years being one-third Of the
total of o,8z5 people now within its
borders. North Dakota is a big state,
as big as Ohio and Indiana combined,
and is capable of supporting as great
population. but as yet our numbers
are not as large as will be found in the
twin cities Of Minnesota. into whose
tllls our state pours vast sums every
year, and our state is viewed as a prov
lnce OF the. busy giants on the Mississip-
pr, Some busy places are to be built in
North Dakota, and one of them is Bis
marck, the county seat of Burleigh, and
the capital of the state. We will not
indulge in speculations as to the future,
but an empire is unfolding along the
valley of the Red, and in the valley of
the Missouri and Bismarck is already
feeling the growth. Industries are look
ing for locations near markets to be,
and investors and homeseekerS are seen
as never before in our towns and cities.
Our citizens are prosperous and that
they have money to spare is seen by the
quarterly bank reports with swelling de-
posts. Burleigh is just getting into
the running with eastern neighbors in the
matter Of farm products, but that #itsis
an agricultural country is apparent in
the success attending the development
of the seed business, garden seeds and
field grains being produced here in var
iety and quality to make Bismarck the
largest distributor of seeds, home grown,
to be found in the northwest That fact
alone should settle the question as to

Morton County

i. MORTON COUNTY was created ine
1881 BY the territorial assembly, and on
Feb. Fl of that year, a. board Of COM
missioners consisting Of Elijah Bouleigh.,
NJ: Lang and L. Gill, met at Mandan
and appointed F. J Mead clerk and reg
ister; F. M. Cranberry, treasurer VIM.

forms its eastern boundary, while the
Heart and Cannon Ball rivers, with nu-
merous tributaries. give the county a
water supply in streams not equalled
elsewhere id the state.
It is the beginning of the Missouri
slope country, viewed for a long time as
a stock range, despite the fact that good
crops had been raised by farmers who
had confidence in the possibilities Of
the country This confidence grew apace,
as seen in the fact that the population
doubled iii the hve years preceding the
census Of 1905 when the people in the
county numbered 1865. and the grain
crop had a total TO exceed 100000
bushels, BY last reports, and this only
a beginning That corn was early culti-
vated is shown by the existence Of dry
cobs iii the mounds of the Indians, heap-
ed up so far back that no one can give
dates. 1t was on the banks of the Mis-
souri, near Mandan. that Lewis and
Clark spent winter i'll the first years
of the last century, and there the ex-
plorers found the Indians eultiyating
little patches Of corn.
There is still government land in Nor
ton county, besides state and decided
lands at very moderate prices. 1t is
difficult to understand why renters re-
main on land In the east paying each
year per acre half as much as they can
buy land for in Morton and other coufl-
ties Of the Missouri slope This $Io land
will raise AS good crops Of wheat fax,
oats. potatoes, etc.s not to speak of grass
and fodder crops for live stock, as $7S
to $I5o land III Illinois and Iowa: The
rapid growth of the state is constantly
pushing the prices Of land To higher fig
ures, not as the result Of boom, but
from the actiial fact Of their fertility
and value to the farmer and stock man.

the future farming development Of Bur-
leigh county and the Missouri slope. .
Ii IS not claimed that men lacking in
knowledge, experience. economy isor
adaptation can locate in Burleigh colipr
ty or any other county in North Dakota
and without prudence, intelligence and
proper effort achieve success, but ii can
be easily shown that thousands 'of its
citizens who had little or nothing to be-
gin with, BUT applied hand and brain,
are now well off in this world s goods.
One only needs to take a look over
the vast stretches Of prairie and see
how fast people are coming in to possess
the land, and the thought comes of the
thousands Of happy homes which soon
will dot these wide areas, which have
lain there silent for ages. except for
the tread Of buffalo and wild Indian, and
the words Of Whittier very naturally
come to mind:

 Doan's Kidney Pills have brought new life and strength to thousands of women afflicted in this way,
 Women are prone to kidney trouble. They have so much indoor work to do, so much lifting. bending and stopping; they are bound by custom to tight. heavy clothing. They get little outdoor exercise. and any little cold may bring on a kidney weakness.
 Don't worry if you feel tired and dragged out-if you have backache and bearingdown pain, headache. dizzy spells. faintnesS and lack ambition. Don't think it's some trouble peculiar to the sex. Men suffer in the same way when they have kidney trouble.
 Ask yourself this question: Are my kidneys well?" The condition of the kidney secretions may give you an answer If there is a brick dust sedi- ment. or a stringy settling in the urine; if passages are too frequent and copi-
