Portland, Ore, Oct. 2.-Carrying
out the program which was arranged
with special reference to his comfort
and convenience and yet calculated
to give the people of the entire city
an opportunity to see him, President
Taft spent what he declared to be one
of the pleasantest days of -4ls western
trip in Portland today.
During the forenoon the president
received fro mtwenty thousand
school children tribute which
brought tears to his eyes. The boys
and girls were banded in red, white
and blue rows in the grand stand on
Multnomah field to form a Living
flag This form of tribute has been
offered at other cities visited by Mr..
Taft on his trips but at no, other
place approached the magnitude OF
what proved to be the distinct feat
ure of the day.

The president entered the field
through a gate on the crest of hill
and a view of the children bursting
upon him all at once called out an
expression of wonderment and de-
light. His entrance was the signal
for an outburst of cheering from the
fresh young voices which continued

Kuhn Oct. 2.-One Of the most sex-
tensive real estate actions ever
pulled of in this county occurred
this week. when George sGackle sold
s37 acres of land just north of this
city to Michael Schmierer, Of Ellen
dale. The tract of land transferred
in the sale consists of Mr., 4Gackle's
24O-acre farm, Emanuel "Sievert's
800 acres and Gottfried Mueller's 2H
acres. This land all lies lin one
tract and makes an excellent farm
for. Mr. Schmierer.<-aThe~ price paid
was s31,250. Mr.. Schmierer expects
to sellyhis large farm near Ellendaie
and will move onto his newly acqulr-
ed farm In the. spring and operate 1t
himself. He came to this country
without any of the worlds goods
about twenty years ago and is now
one of the wealthiest men in this
part Of the state; In making TINS
change he considers that he has ad-
vanced himself several thousand dol
lars and it, is useless to- say that he
has certainly made a good deal. The
farm purchased contains the pest
soil possible and is close to market
and in every way is well adapted for
making one OF the most desirable
tracts In this part of the state. These
big real estate transfers go farther
than anything else. in demonstrating
that this is one Of the best coun-
tries under the sun-from the fact
that the purchasers are In most
cases men who knew the value of our
lands and are buying because they
know that they are getting the worth

II 1t will perhaps be interesting to
the readers OF this paper to know
of the chief characteristics of the
climate of North Dakota and of the
temperature and precipitation aver
ages for the various months Of the
year for that portion of the state in
which the lands about to be opened
to the public are located. AS is we'll
known, moderate extremes of heat
and cold characterize the climate of
our state. History SHOWS, however,
that the highest type of manhood
abounds in such environments as our
state affords. North Dakota has been
approximately called 'The Land or
Sunshine" for with few, if any, ex-
ceptions no country produces great
er number of, days with sunshine
than does our state. The average
temperature for the state Is about
80 degrees. January is the coldest
month with an average of 8 degrees.
July is the warmest month with an
average of 10 degrees. The preclpi-
tation, the most important element
to be considered, is ample for all
needs, the average for the year be-
ing about 1S inches. When one con-
siders that of this amount, fully
three-fifths occurs during the crop
growing season, almost ideal condi-
tions are, experienced. Further, the
percentage of evaporation is low for
North Dakota, being but about one
half that of Texas, where the aver
age rainfall is the same. 1t Will
thus be readily seen that ample pre-
cipitation generally occurs, is dis
tributed equally throughout the crop
growing season and that as the per-
centage of evaporation is low, max
imum amount of the moisture is con-
served for crop growth. While the
average wind movement is higher in
North Dakota than in some other
states, there are as a rule few winds
of damaging nature.
The following table shows the av-
erage temperature and the average
precipitation by months at Bismarck
for a period of thirty-six years:
