to Fargo and were registered at n
Waldorf yesterday for a short time.
He reported the roads to be in a very

tour that passed through Wahpeton

appeared to be enjoying themselves
very much. They spoke Of the kind
treatment they had received in the

treatment ever since leaving home last
Thursday. We find the roads in our
section OF the state to be in fairly
good condition and like everybody else

crops we are having. Wahpeton Is q
