every hand in the cities the
land men gave most encouraging re-
ports regarding the demand for nor
thern Minnesota lands" said Mr..
Kaiser. Several land men whom I
talked Ito had parties of landseekers
billed for this section within the next
few days, and all of them had receiv-
ed many inquiries which indicated
that there will be an exceptionally
heavy movement to this section the
coming few months and many sales
recorded ~. s.>o..,,
There is no trouble selling north
ern Minnesota lands II the landseek-
ers come here and want good land.
Real farmers from the central and
,easterAs states can see what w haze
here, and realize that land such as
this can never be purchased cheaper
than right now and will steadily in
crease in value for years to come.
They appreciate the fact that much
development has been done, and that
advantages can be secured here now
which would mean years of waiting
and millions of expense to secure in
an absolutely new country where
railroad facilities, the telephone,
schools, churches, theatres, ETC., will
have to be built and that such things
come slowly and mean certain priva-
lions til they do come.
81 confidently look for lively de-
mand for real estate al this year."
said Mr.. Kaiser in conclusion. "We
are just starting on period of stea-
dy development and we are going to
get thousands of good substantial
farm owners in northern Minnesota
during the coming summer, who will
be most desirable farmers"

In speaking of his recent trip to
Iowa. r. c. Hayner, formerly county
auditor of Beltrami county, this
morning said: S
GAS is known, 1 have just returned
from five weeks lecture tour of the
country around Clinton, Iowa, in the
interest of Beltrami county land. BE-
side delivering Re- nnssany lectures he'd
personal talks with over three hun
dred men who are more or less in
terested in this country. ...
81 find that the hardest drawback
this country has is the way in which
the real estate men are advertising
land for sale for almost nothing,
thus causing the buyers to believe
that where the land can be sold so
cheaply that it is not worth any
thing.
"The weather down there is cold
one day and hot the next l much
prefer Beltrami weather to theirs.
Two weeks ago during a blizzard, 2
