President Worst of the North Da

Fargo, who delivered an address yes
terday to packed house at the Elk
position auditorium. was in pleas
ant mood last night when seen at the
Mckenzie.
Il have had glorious day." said
the great agricultural authority, las
any North Dakotan must who visits
the exposition and sees what his
state can produce. The exposition is
a credit to North Dakota and to the
nation. The people of the state owe
Commissioner Gilbreath their most
fervent thanks for the wonderful
display of farm products he has as
sembled. l doubt If better display
of grains and grdsses were ever
shown in the United States and the
vegetables on display are something
to marvel at. We have a modest dis
play from he agricultural college
and the experiment farms, but moth.
ing what it should be nor what it will
be next Year, Our people did not
understand exactly. what was ex
pected of them They did not want
to make a display which might out
shine some of the county exhibits
and it is plain to anyone that they
did not. l never saw such display
anywhere as is shown in many of
those county booths up there. And
the arrangement is artistic. One
would hardly believe that it is pos:
sible to make such picture out OF
farm products. The state institutions
will not be lacking another year. The
officers in charge have learned some
thing by this experience they will not
soon forget"
Speaking of the states duty in re-
spsct to the exposition, President
Worst continued: "The legislature
could we'll afford to make an annual
appropriation for a two weeks expo
sition and make it permanent. AS
an educational influence it is un-
rivaled, and the resident of North Da-
kota who does not visit the exposi-
tion makes a great mistake and the
county or district which fails to
make a proper exhibit is in grave
error. The residents of the Red
River valley and all other sections of
the state should visit the State In
dustrial Exposition, not so much
from sense of patriotic pride as for
the benefits to be derived in an edu-
cational way. You may say that am
more than pleased with the work ac-
complished by Superintendent Gil
breath, with the exposition in all it's
details; am delighted with it, and
while l am obliged to leave tonight,
I expect to return before the close
and enjoy the pleasure of address,
ing the visitors along the very lines
the exposition exemplifies."
