Gently made ITSELF into a county, and
established O. courthouse, electing OF.
Eficers and being independent of the
mother county.
Enthusiastically independent. ii
Independence has seemed to be a
characteristic 81: the American PEG,
Pile since the iirst American was
known. In fact, tho Indian was as
independent IA manias you would find
any place, and he was the first Amer.
lean. His spirit has been broker:
through the treachery apf his white
brother, and today he Is to the North
| what the negro lis to- the south. You
! who have learned the lesson of thrift
| from your forefathers, you are let
ting the chance of a lifetime slip
away from you. You will wake up
some day to the fact that that chance
that was yours has vanished and
there will he no more cheap land to
be had. The homestead lands OF the
United states are dwtndling away,
and being settled up by the thrifty
man that. knows. he must make hay
while the, sun shines. Ten hours
work on the lands sof the northwest
will net y0HsSmpre progt than three
}times that much work will on any
land in the older states. You ask
tho question, hwo? Easily explained,
for the simple reason that, in the first
place, 2yon have no sturnps to contend
with, and in the second place the
machinery you can use here Will
double the amount of work done with
the old-fashioned walking plow.
Think of cutting a fnrrow fourteen
inches wide, and twelve of them each
time around. Think Of the amount
of blowing that is done here at pref
ty neal the saem cost that you would
cut one furrow Of sixteen inches, back
east, then figure for yourself wheth.
or ten hours Of wok won't net you
more dollars at the end of the sea-
son than thirty hours will back
there, where they think that they
have all the time in the world to do
lit in.
Dairyin0.
Dairying at one time was laughed
at by those that thought they knew
a thing or two. But today the wise
farmer can't get enough cattle on his
farm to suit himself. He knows fur.
Their that the time is coming when
he will have to farm a smaller
amount Of land and rotate his crop,
and the use of the best fertilizer
will be the only salvation OF his land
and is today preparing for that time
by breeding the best stock obtain
able, knowing that they will grow
into dollars and cents quicker than
the common stock, or scrubs. The
white faced COW with her calf will
eventually be the only stock that the
people that want the best will have.
You will find a marked differences
In the farmer Of today and his BROTH
er OF yesterday, who only thought of
d few days ahead, and not Of the fu-
ture;; who let his herd dwindle to
the peneral stock that was so com.
mon only q short time ago, and fin
ally found himself without milk
enough to show in the pail. No won
der that SO many of the sO-called
farmers were discouraged and Quit
the farm, moved to town and spent
what little they had saved through
the years of toll and saving, even b.,
denying themselves of what they
should have had. Z e
You will find here a list Of the
firms that have and are still contint-
ing to build into one Of the best
towns in II grand state of North
Dakota.
