WALL STREET SAYS NORTH
DAKOTA LOOKS GOOD

Has North Dakotan right to
feel proud Of his state and optimistic
regarding the future?
Read the following from the FL
nancial World, one Of the leading
Wall Street publications and a paper
of national circulation:
According to statistics, compiled
from the last decimal government re-
port, one sixth of all the increase in
improved farm property in the United
States was in North Dakota.
"Thc increase in improved land in
that state during the past ten years
has been ll2 per cent more than any
other state in the Union.
"In 1914 North Dakota marketed
more than five times as many hogs
as in 1912.
Corn production nearly doubled in
the same time.
"Thc average farm in North Da-
kota is 582 acres.
Business conditions at the present
time are excellent and real estate and
loan agents state that the loan busi-
ness is very slow this season owing to
the splendid financial condition of the
| farmers"
