Possibilities OF the Canal Zone. is an
interesting report soon to be published

the value of agriculture along the zone
might be determined and how agficul-

Secretary Wilson ordered Ell. III. Ben

to visit Panama and examine its agrt-
cultural conditions.
Agricultural operations In the canal

1900. Nesting at the foot Of the Turtle
mountains in the best farming country
in North Dakota For many years the
term Peerless Bottineau" has been
applied to this county and none have

dences besides having school advant-
ages second to no town in the state.

care Of 400 pupils. the high school is
ranked az frst class institution and
IL recognized BY the North Central as
ISOLATION Of Colleges ana Secondary
schools. The state school Of forestry
Is located ut Bottinsau and is doing
good work in promoting the growth OF
trees throughout the state as well as
In giving an opportunity for liberal
education along other lines. academic
and commercial.
Bottineau has live churches with
resident pastors, three banks with an
aggregate capital of 100000 and sur
plus OF $4,000. These institutions
carry deposits ranging from $750.ooO to
over the million mark. There are six
large grain elevators and the amount
Of grain handled by them annually is
in the neighborhood Of 100000 bushels
