Machinery Dealer Says Bet
ter Farming Movement
Is "Grandest Work"

THE better farming movement is
the grandest work ever attempted in
this or any other country" declared
Leo d. Elmstedt. manager of the

pany's Minneapolis house, at his ho-
tel in Grand Forks Friday night.
The movement is going to mean
millions of dollars to North Dakota;
it is going to make this state of great
er importance than we can now i'm
agine," continued Mr.. Elmstedt.
II was at one of the first meetings
in Minneapolis when the better farm
ing idea was first being discussed. Al
that time no n knew just what this
sort of thing meant. Since the thing
has been set in motion we are begin
hing to appreciate what d wonderful
propaganda it really is. Implement

everywhere. You can figure out fol

Countless Opportunities.
This movement has been taken ur
just at the right time, l believe. The
farmers of this section have raised
wheat, wheat. wheat and have sort OF
got into a rut. YOU might say, which
the better farming movement is bound
to pull them out of. North Dakota
certainly has the soil and with a little
diversification wonders are going to be
worked right here in this stat. Think
of what 1t will mean to every COM
munity in the state when these big
farms are yielding the best that's in
them, and they have not done so ur
to the present time. Think of what II
will mean when dairying really gets q
foothold here.
why the opportunities in North
Dakota are without number. The
time is not far distant when there will
be q farm house and a modern farmer
on every 160 acres of land in this
state. The better farming movement
is going to bring all these good things
about and almost before we know it
too.
A Great Convention.

convention was a good thing? Foolish
question. I certainly do. The con.
vention just closed was one of the
most interesting hat I ever attended
and l regret that l could not have at

meetings bring the dealers together
and they get them better acquainted
