NORTH DAKOTA
HAS EXHIBITS
STATE HAS FINE SHOWING or
GRAINS AND GRASSES AT
STATE FAIR.

Springfield Gid Journal: One OF
the most attractive exhibits display
ed on the second floor Of the Dome
Building is that from the state of
North Dakota. It consists Of grains,
grasses and mineral products Of that
rapidly growing state. 1t is some
thing amazing to note the many diff
ferent kinds of wheat grown and it
Is hard to determine which Is the
best. Such oats are seldom seen and
the yield is remarkable. Then there
is speltz, which makes the finest flour
in the world, besides being a wonder
full nourishing food for animals OF
all kinds. Alfalfa is q great yielder
and produces three crops in a year.
Timothy and clover both. do well in
that; state, while Broom grass is a
profitable crop. Flax Is one of the.
staple crops of the state of North
Dakota and the first crop often pays
ferrthe land. When it is understood
that North Dakota raises one-third
of the flax produced in this country,
one can get some idea Of the magni-
tude of the crop raised in. that state.
Barley and rye are sure winners and
some Of the finest samples of these
cereals are shown in the exhibit as
can be raised in any state without ir-
rigation. No state can produce more
varieties or more nutritious grasses
and some extraordinary samples are
shown. All of these grains and grasses
are artistically arranged in glass cases
and present very interesting exhib-
it to those who make agriculture
study. -.
Not only is North Dakota an ag-
riculture state, but it abounds In minis
eral resources There is exhibited In
this booth, some of the finest speci-
mems Of pottery that can be seen any
where. There are thousands of acres
undertake with the finest pottery clay
~ n ~ . z
to be found anywhere in the world,
which only awaits the hand Of the
developer. Then there is a coy place
and cozy fire, made from Ignite
coal which abounds in abundance in
this state. ..y. 800,
AS a whole, no exhibit in the Dome
building compares with that of North
Dakota's in variety, completeness and
excellence of arrangement.
Nature has dealt generously with
state of North Dakota. While It is
eminently true that agriculture lis the
leading industry on which the people
depend and the present prosperity Of
the state is based, yet her mineral
resources are unlimited and only
await >, the development era, when
remarkable revelations will be made
that will surprise, the public. Already
1t . has been demonstrated that she
possesses excellent brick and pottery
clays and cement beds and the latest
development is her oil wells.
In conversation with Commissioner
Of Agriculture, Hon. W. c. Gilbreath,
who has the general supervision Of
the exhibit. he stated to Journal
reporter that diversified farming had
proved the most profitable, which In
~ E. d =
ciuded grain farming, livestock rails
ing and dairying. The latter is very
rapidly becoming an important factor
and profitable occupation. North Da-
kota ranks among the First Of the
wheat growing states, and with the
present advanced prices of that ce-
real it has been a very profitable
