North Dakota Farms Draw Attention.
Mr.. Norohieff is an agent of the
Russian government to study farm
Ing conditions and farm methods in
several countries with a view of Sc
lecting methods which can be intro
dueed into Russia. The great farms
of North Dakota have attracted the
attention of the cars government
days visiting farms in the vicinity OF
Fargo and studying the modern farm
ing agricultural methods in use.
MI. Norobief is unable to speak
English and Mr.. Shatzky is spokes-
mar for the party. Soon after their
arrival at the Hotel Waldorf Friday
evening Mr.. Shatzky discussed his inn
pressions of America and especially
OF the northwest.
We are impressed with North Da-
kota not SO much for the size Of Your
farms as with the modern way in
which your farmers till the soil and
harvest their crops. In Russia We
have great. large farms as large or
larger than YOU have in the vicinity
of Fargo. but most of our work there
is done by old methods. The farmers
Of Russia will work with their hands
rather than by means of machinery.
Your great American farms are
truly wonderful. They have machin-
cry for everything. The farmer has
to be an engineer " here. They d.
much more work than our farmers
can 40. however. and if We in Russia
wish to continue to supply a large
must adopt your more modern meth.

IN the laws of your country and the

tutional lawyer and we have often

the first time then.
