SON THE OPTIMIST.


Editor Wilson Of the Bathgate Pink
Paper. likewise oil inspector and DEM
ocrat, is an optimist and does not
worry over the decrease OF Pembina
county's population as shown by the
census returns.
Free lands in Canada and the al
luremen,s of fruit lands of the west
has caused us this loss" he says. ut
has frequently been the case in the
history of the early settlements OF
countries that the tide immigration
pours on over sections of the greatest
promise and worth to flock to much
advertised places. of less natural adj
vantages. Such was the case in
souther Minnesota and the lands
there were not selling higher than in
many new sections and for number
of years there was no sale for even
the choicest farms. Then the tide
turned and southern Minnesota Is
now one of the high priced farming
sections of the country and one of the
most productive. No one claims that
our soil is not among the most pro-
dustive in the world. There is plenty
of rain fall and the crop results In our
county can but reassure our people
and all who inquire into the facts
that there was something overlooked
in the rush for the west, when they
passed Pembina county and the Red
River Valley. Few places in the
north rank with this section in crop
producing possibilities. This year
the elevator men will tell you, and it
is considered drought year all
through the state, that wheat receipts
in Pembina county have been as large
as last year. Then, while we have
not the figures to prove it, we have
no doubt that the shipments of clover
and timothy hay from the county will
exceed that of all the balance of the
state. Timothy is a splendid success
and the same with clover, and where
clover can be successfully and cheaply
grown. pork can be produced at the
lowest cost. Corn is grown on large
acreage in this county, and while it
does not always ripen as we'll as
might be desired. it makes a first
quality ensilage and produces the
greatest amount of feed for horned
stock of any kind of fodder A few
years ago wheat was king, but now
it has many little princes competing
for its crown. Seven creameries in
this small county indicates that the
farmer is turning his attention to,
stock to considerable extent. The
fowl cars which have carried whole
car loads of chickens, ducks. turkeys
and geese to eastern markets indicate
another source of revenue from the
farms. These changes take time but
they are the things which will restore
to Pembina county and the other val
ley counties their prestige for fertility
and production. Already the immi.
grant is turning to these older Sec
ions of the state and in a few years
the LARGE amount of land held by spec
ulators will become the holdings of
actual farmers who will repeople our
county and bring it to it's own

Smith, who Is a diplomat. didn't want
10 be disagreeable, but to illustrate
the bad reputation OF some people for

There was man in my old coun-
" named 81 Sirnpkins. with an aw
full reputation as liar one day the
boys were discussing whether he was
the biggest liar In the county. They
referred 1t to Josh Jimpson, and John
gave this Solomonic decision:
II wouldn't say 81 were the biggest
liar IN tie county. at he's the only
man that has to get somebody else TO
call his hawgs to swill for him.
