NORTH DAKOTA STATISTICS
TOLD BY mr.. elLBREATI

#..a.. .-IE-1 -----.--'
Last week Commissions 81 w. c. Gil
breath gave many interesting figures on
North Dakota to tbs farmers at a meet
ing in Farso. and following are extracts
from his able address:
The development and settlement Of
North Dakota during the present decade
has been as marvellous as enormous. for
nowhere have been the prospects for
agriculture and stock raising more
alluring than in this new state. The
turning of the prairiss. the erection OF
new buildings, school houses and other
permanent edifces. the construction of
railroads have practically transformed
the state. The hills, basins. and valleys
are being dotted with homes, that are
substantial and comfortable and the
| building of the new lines of railroad
have insured permanency and pros
perity. These new railroads mean ad
ditional hundreds of thousands of people,
new elevators. new towns, new business
houses, new industries and homes for
all who seek them in this new empire
of settlement. where prosperity and
plenty reign supreme.
1t is worth your time and il is we'll
worthy of your attention to note the
rapid permanent settlement of North
Dakota. In 1870 her population was

in 1900. 319, 146 in 1905, 437, 079; and
today she has nearly 800, 600. This
shows an increase of over 400. 900 in
less than twenty years, or nearly $780,
900 in less than ten years. or 1853. 900 in
less than five years. What state can
show a greater proportionate population
increase?
During the past year the average rain
fall, v the entire state, has been
10. So inches, which is more than ample
to assist to maturity an excellent crop
of any kind of grain. Nature has dealt
