so FAR AS we have been able to
learn from what seems TO be reliable

been failure. The men have returned
to work or others have taken their
places under conditions less advantage

strike. The Post has not taken sides

THERE is NOTHING quite like a
presidential visit to the west to wake
up the people of the east to the posi-
bilities of the great and boundless
west If we tell the casterners the
truth about this country they think we
are blinded by partially and to them
all our statements are colored in our
own behalf But President Taft is get
ting his eyes opened on this western
trip until now he sees things which
heretofore he never knew were in ex
istence. Now he KNOWS things which
formerly he had not even DREAMED
of. And there is no guess work about
his remarks, but pcsitiveness born of
actual knowledge and these positive
statements concerning the wonderful
possibilities of the incompatible west
are causing the conservative easterners
to sit up and take notice. Verify, the
president $ visit is a splendid advertise
ment Of the great western empire.

WESTERN COLORADO has surely
been given an uplift by the visit of
President Taft. In Denver the presi
dent S speech was largely political, but
on the Western Slope he was so amazed
at the enormous crops the boundless
opportunities and the general trend of
prosperity that he could scarcely refer

o the Mouse and Des Laos valleys
There are 240 miles Of river valley
in Ward county and vast quantities
Of table land. Hay grows in abund-
ance and farmers generally secure all
hay needed on the prairie lands dir
ectly to their own farms or upon
them.
The surface Of the entire county IL
q drift formation containing both
mineral and vegetable matter and in
color from a greyfsh brown to black
The subsoil Is clay containing silica
lime, potash, phosphoric acid, nitro
gen and vegetable humus. 1t holds
moisture wonderfully well. giving 1t
out as needed to the growing crops. i
Land, cheap good land must coon
and forever be an impossibility to the
man who is poor. Practically all gov
eminent land within the United
States today that will produce crop
with rainfall has been settled upon
and is not now open to filing. AS the
population increases, and It Is in
creasing rapidly more and more will
there be both need and a demand
for land Hence it must necessarily
advance more or less year by year.
Now, therefore, is the accepted
time to get at least 100 acres and as
much more as you may be able to
secure. Land in Ward county, North
Dakota, will reach 500 an acre in
one-fourth the time that. it took In
diana Illinois, Iowa or Minnesota to
accomplish that same result
The population is increasing more
rapidly the movement is way and
ahead faster, it is not the ox-cart, but
the automobile, not the side-hiH pillow
but the steam pillow, not steam but
electricity. The demand for land
must grow greater with every passing
year, and in the 1-eantime the ex-
tent of good, valuable farm land is
Lessening even more Sapidly.
Therefore, Ward county has good
climate. good lands, sood people, good
schools, good cities, excellent rail-
road facilities. Get farm when you
can and while it is within your pow
err to pay and before it is everlast-
ingly too late.

Ward county has thousands Of
acres of excellent coal lands, enough
at least to supply the world for
hundred years. Some of the veins are
twelve feet thick and farmers in
hundreds OF instances mine their own
coal and within few yards OF their
thresholds.
Ward county has an area of ap-
proximately $3.50 square miles. Sup
pose it be estimated that four-fifths
of this underlaid with coal. This is
more than five Thousand square miles
of coal! Five thousand square miles?
We are perhaps more familiar with
the customary measurement by acres.
This then means nearly three and
one4half millions of acres! 49,.
It is little use ITO name such figures.
The mind cannot grasp them. We
may as well say that there seems to
be enough! One vein six feet in
thickness embracing such territory
as the reasonably known coal area OF
Ward county would supply fuel to
heat all the houses of all the homes
in North Dakota and all the states of
the Mississippi Valley and provinces
of Canada that join our borders
through all the winters that our
children's children will see and then
there will still be enough for heat
ing all the houses for many years
longer and even then according to the
best geological estimates we are able
to make, we shall not have reached
the limit of the coal supply of Ward
county alone by more than a modest
fraction of what is stored up under
meath the fertile acres of the farm
ing lands in the vast area lying west
