A BIG SURPRISE.

Lisbon. n. D.. Oct. 5.-The fall fes.
tival Of farm products has opened in
the armory in this city. The display
surpasses the fondest expectations of
even the Oldest residents Of this coun-
ty.
In the corn contest there are over
800 exhibits, showing all varieties full
~ matured and in many cases even
the end of the ear is rounded off with
perfect kernels.
The potato display consists of over
100 different specimens, embracing
many varieties and all being perfect in
form and of the most desirable sizes,
except a few which are abnormally
large. There are over 1000 exhibits
of vegetables which would put to
shame any county fair down east.
The exhibit has been a success far
beyond the widest hopes of its pro-
motors, and while $1,000 is offered in
the way of prizes. the display is worth
many times this amount in it's i'm
portant advertising advantages as to
the fertility of Ransom county and its
capability of producing all classes of
crop to perfection.
1t is the feeling here that no bet
ter advertisement could be had than
the sending Of this exhibit to the
central west and eastern states to
show the people there Just what RAN
som county can produce.

Declares That Showing a,
Bismarck Is Exception
ally Brilliant

Bismarck. n. D., Oct. 5.-"I am
amazed and delighted with the dis
plays Of North Dakota products at the
exposition" said Prof. Thomas Shaw.
the celebrated Minnesota agricultural
expert and institute lecturer. One OF
the amazing features 10 the effort put
forth by residents OF the different
counties under present conditions ia
gather such products and so tastefully
arrange them in the different booths
with tho immediate financial reward
offered in the way OF prizes" con-
tinued the gentleman. 1T Is next to
marvellous. speak not only from the
quality but tho quantity as we'll. I
do not hesitate to say that many Of the
exhibits excel those of the Minnesota
iair n they speak Well for North
Dakota.
Another feature which struck me
as next to marvellous. and 1t will i'm.
press anyone familiar with conditions
the same way. is the fine display Of
corn. The exhibits will convince any
beholder that North Dakota is a corn
state. The magnificent display Of
wheat might have been expected. but
not the variety of winter wheat
shown. AND in roots and grasses the
display is truly amazing In every
booth samples of corn are shown as
"CAA dS SuCu SOIL reStOrerS as alt8lt0
and Canadian field peas. These crops
are the saving ones for the country,
for they not only yield rich returns
but they build up and restore the
ground The whole exposition is truly
a revelation and increases my faith
IN North Dakota as a winter wheat
state. In every booth will be found
samples Of winter wheat and Of such
quality as to convince the most skep-
teal that this crop may be success
fully and profitably grown here. II
cannot dwell too long on the subject
of corn cultivation. In fact my as
constituent at what is shown here has
been too great to give time for analy.
Sis. l am going to visit each booth
during my stay here and talk
with the men in charge. I am greedy
for information; ] want to learn
how the great work has been accom-
pltshed. 1 thought I knew North Da-
kota pretty we'll and was familiar with
all her resources but these exhibits
from so many obscure and remote
hooks and n of the state have
convinced me that I have vet much
