NORTHERN PACIFIC
EXHIBIT CAR
VISITED BY MANY

The Nohtren Pacific exhibit car that
was here yesterday, left st. Paul,
Mimi, December 4, covered a terri
tory between there and Chicago, show
ing at about 80 towns and then back
from Chicago to Omaha, Neb., then
, south to Kansas City, Mo-, then COW
cred all the line of the Katy, going
down to Adair and Pryor and on down
to Denison, Tex. The car is 75-foot
car, the best of its kind on the road.
The products are gathered from all
along the Northern Pacific railway
from MINI esota, North Dakota, Mon
tana, Idaha. Washington and Oregon.
The men in charge wers NJ A. Begg
and Carl ]. Winbauer, both from ST.
Paul and they did there best in ex-
planning where the products were
raised and tell what their country is
good for They were very well pleas
ed with the way the people turned out
at Vinita. 1t is estimated that about
$500 people visited the car.
Some of the attractions in the car
were the fine apples raised in the
Yakima Valley, Wash, and many
other various fine fruits that were pre-
served in glass jars that were raised
in Washington, Oregon and Idaho
Another one of the attractions was
the large Washington and Montana
potatoes, weighing from one and one
half to three pounds, yielding all the
way from 175 to $50 bushels to the
acre, raised by irrigation. The grasses,
and small grains such as wheat, oats,
barley and speltz, raised by irrigation
and dry farming methods. Dry farm
ing or Campbell scientific farming is
a success in eastern Montana or CEN
'tral Oregon, on land that can be home
steaded in either territory at 800
.acre entry.
What raised in eastern Montana by
the dry farming method makes from
26 to As bushels to the acre, oats, 35
to so bushel to the acre, and wheat
raised IN Washington and Montana by
irrigation, 40 to 65 bushels to the
acre and oats from 75 to ITO bushels
to the acre.

so are the county judges and the dis.
triet agents Many people would not
unfairly deal with a white man who
would not hesitate to rob an Indian.
They know he is powerless to help
himself and that he viii not arouse
public attention. The government is
now paying sixteen district agents
$1,000 each per annum to aid in some
measure in their protection. and /
am sure that no fair-mmded citizen.
white or red, whose good opinion is
priced, will believe that these Indians
should be set adrift, robbed of their
lands without the assistance of the
government. Millions of dollars are
being appropriated for pensions. for
maintaining the neyy, for enlarging
and supporting the army for the gov
ernment of the Philippine Islands, and
for other governmental expenditures,
and hundreds of thousands of dollars
are being appropriated for costly pub
lie buildings to be erected throughout
the country. and yet when the small
appropriation is asked to help save
a vanishing race from its own improvi-
dence we are met with the cry of econ
omy The report is being circulated
that the district agents are retarding
the settlement of tribal affairs. Every
one knows this untrue. The Whit
mire suit and the suit to prevent the
enrolment OF minor children have
postponed the settlement of Chero-
kee affairs. We will need the district
agents long after our affairs are set
tied, Their continuance has nothing
to do with our final settlement. Every
school boy knows this. ! am urging,
in season and out of season, final
settlement every minute. Let's not
muddy the water. This issue is clear
Are you in favor of protecting the
admittedly incompetent fullblood In
dian?
The best years of my life have been
given to the service of the Cherokee
people, and | am determined now to
do what ! can for their protection.

WAY 70 GAIN E

There is only one way for thin,
weak persons to gain flesh and
strength and that is to eat and digest
more food.
But that's just the trouble" says
one. Il don't want to eat at all and
the doctors say it does more harm
than good to eat what l don't want"
That is true. The thing to do is to
get an appetite and good digestion.
Miss Henrietta Huber. of the Bronx,
n. Y, says on this subject; IT was
very weak and had been for several
months, so | thought / ought 10 take
Vinol to gain strength. Since talk
ing Vinol ! have gained over 10 pounds
in weight and my appetite is good.
Now / am as strong as ever"
This is a remarkable case, but there
are thousands Of others, proving that
our delicious cod liver and iron rem
edy, Vinol, is a certain body builder
and strength creator. II you are
weak n thin, you should by all
means give yourself the benefit of
yinol for it will build you UP and
make you strong. We guarantee it to
do this. Fout & Porterfeld, special

represent wish me, to convey the inn
preston that 1t was prompted by any
other motive than that which impels
you and me to do all we can to build
up u business; but / feel as though,
inasmuch as ] at that time represent
ed the state of North Dakota, I ought
to say that the investigation of the
soils that was made in the summer Of
1906 in Morton, Hettinger and Adams
counties, was made possible and was
only possible through the financial CO.
operation and assistance OF the North
ern Pacific railway, which company
furnished the funds with which the ex-
penses of the survey on the part of the
state were paid.
There would be no excuse for my
saying this at this time, only for the
peculiar mission that calls me here to-
night, viz. to present in behalf of the
Northern Pacific railway these tokens
of recognition OF excellence and success
in the dairying industry. The same
desire to assist in developing the lat
ent powers OF the soil that prompted
the contribution OF funds to carry on
a soil survey prompts the offering of
q token OF appreciation for the best
products Of the creamery and the farm.
