IN The HOTEL LOBBIES

James Reese of East Palestine, O.
was a business visitor to the city yes
terday and has been stopping at the
Waldorf hotel since his arrival in
Fargo. Il am Just taking a trip
through the northwest to see the
country" said he to The Forum. u
really haven't any particular. business
here, but l nave read SO much about
the farms OF the state of North Dako-
ia, that / thought I'd come this way,
on my trip to the coast. Yesterday ]
hired an automobile, was driven down
as far as Casselton, where l had a
good view of the Dalrymple farm
which I understand Is the largest in
this section and while the harvesting
was over, still I saw enough to give
me some idea Of what II must be in
the summer time when the grain is
growing, I a say that / expected to
see something big, but / was astonish-
ed at the magnitude of the farming
operations as shown me on my trip,
We in the east haven't the least con
CeptiOn of what a really big farm is
Iii and how 1t is managed. OF course
we have an idea that it must be ON
thing big, but I don't believe the aver
age farmer on his eighty acre farm in
our section in Ohio has the least con-
ception Of how they go at 1t to work
&c, 600 acres. l should have liked very
much to have seen the cutting and
threshing of the wheat and other
grains, but Of course was too late for
that. However l did have the pleasure
Of seeing the blowing going on with a
mammoth traction engine and what
they Gull a gang pillow. or a series OF
them. and I shall be able to tell my
neighbours Of the sight. | was glad to
hear that the state Is just now making
q very active campaign for better
farming. 1t seems to me that If the
right kind of work was done, with
your rich soil here, It should be no
trouble to raise thirty-five to forty
bushels to the acre. ! know that we
do this. but of course only on a small
tract of land. but If the same amount
OF work was done on a large tract in
prOprtion to a small tract it seems to
me that 1t could after a time be done.
This I suppose might be a very good
argument for cutting these big farms
into smaller ones, so that the greatest
yield might be secured from the land.
but his question is too big a one for
me to discuss. Only | think that a
man or two could farm 100 acres to q
greater advantage than several men
could farm from 1000 to 10000 acres
Maybe I'm wrong. but ] don't think
am. I have enjoyed my visit here
very much. I have been much pleased
with the appearance of the city oil
Fargo. which | think is one of the
most up to date cities of anywhere
near it's size that l have ever been In
l shall always remember my visit here
with great pleasure"

action of the National committee in
contest proceedings, particularly the
California case, during the day.
Roosevelt men insisted they could
expect nothing for their candidate at
the hands of the ruling Taft majority
in the National committee and criti-
cized the work of that body with bit
terness.
The question of whether or not Col.
Roosevelt would come to Chicago and
what effect his coming would have upon
the tense situation came up at almost ev-
cry turn of the endless discussions and
arguments. Nearly all agreed that the
arrival of Col. Roosevelt would bring the
situation to an immediate focus, but the
final outcome of such an event was dis
puted.
The third candidate talk included Cum
minis and La Toilette and then went on
to the much debated dark horse posi-
bility. A dozen names were mentioned
in the latter connection.
Early in the evening, Director Mekin-
ley issued a length statement which, aft
or claiming that Mr.. Taft would be NOM
mated ON the first ballot, charged that
the Roosevelt forces were planning
more desperate measures to prevent the
