RAPID GROWTH OF MANUFACTURING
INDUSTRIES IN NORTH DAKOTA

Used as the people of the state are
to measure values and quantities in
the hundreds Of millions, when refer
ring to the agricultural products Of
North Dakota, it might seem that the
smaller figures that have to be named
in connection with the states manu-
featuring activities are insignificant
and of but little Importance. Such a
conclusion, however, would be unjust
and unfair to the numerous thrifty
and prosperous manufacturing enter
prises now being carried on within
the state, which produced in 1914,
the last year in which figures have
been secured manufactured articles
Of the total value Of $21, 147,000.
The manufacturing establishments
doing the above amount Of business
consist almost entirely of Industries
closely connected with the daily needs
Of the surrounding population, such as
-four mills, grist mills, brickmaking
plants, buttermaking concerns, ETC.,
ETC., but little, il any, Of the manufac-
tured articles going outside of the

The tremendous growth of the auto.

1t does, the establishment Of plants
which, In the due fruition of their
growth, may enter the manufacturing
class
Far outreaching, however, all those
industries mentioned, in inherent ca
pacity for expansion, would be the
utilization Of our own products as we
produce them in the form of grain
and live stock. Could we but secure
for our own state the full value of

ACRICUL TURE IN NORTH DAKOTA-1916
Natural Conditions Were Bad, but Good Prices Made Up fol
The Shortage in Yield.

1t would be unfair to consider agri-
cultural conditions in North Dakota
by the yields of the various crops dur
ing the year of 1916. That year was
abnormal and out of balance with the
general average Of preceding years,
and especially so as regards it's imme-
date predecessor of 1915, which may
be regarded as the banner crop year
Of the state since it entered the ranks
of agricultural commonwealth.
Crop prospects at the commence
ment of the season, and, indeed, until
the crop was three-fourths grown,
were extremely favorable, and all in
dications pointed to practical repe-
ntion OF the splendid output of 1916
But, alas, for the happy augury. Ma
ture, in her sterner moods, interviewed
and permitted deterioration that
finally eliminated unfortunately so far
rs the earlier anticipations were con-
oerned. Rust, with it's devastating
processes, finally succeeded in count
ing North Dakota among it's victims
and wrote the story of it's ravages in
shrunken kernels and depleted bushel
measures. In some portions of the
such an extent that farming opera
lions were almost entirely suspended
The area affected by this latter condi-
ton, however, was proportionately
small as compared with the total acre
age in crops, although none the less
affected, and calling for immediate
and drastic remedial measures.
With the tribute to the inevitable
contained in the preceding paragraph
the story of 1915 tribulations may be
called complete and the good people
affirm and believe that they have good
cause to express appreciation Of condi-
tons as they exist at the close of the
year. Prices Of all marketable prod
uce raised by the farmer have touched,
In many instances, the highest range
of prices since the COS, and there are
many farmers throughout the state,
who, through one source Of income or
another, have Melted as high an aver
age profit in 1916 as in 1915. This is
proven by the fact that deposits in
state banks in November, 1916, ex-
ceeded those of the previous year at
the same time by nearly S20,O0O,O0O.
In common with many other North
western states the year of 1916 was
not favorable to the corn crop, soft
corn" being the rule rather than the
exception. 1t is, therefore, a further
cause for congratulation that the year

The production Of corn and the corn

at present available as to the acre.
age of this wonderful crop in the
| state. However, careful observers
and estimators agree that the alfalfa
acreage at the present time exceeds
100000.
An evidence Of the progress Of d.
versfication is indicated in the value
of live stock products sold from the
state. Five years ago the total sale
Of live stock products was less than
$10,000,000 annually. During the past
year the sales Of live stock products
probably exceeded $24,O00,000.
The farmers Of the state are aided
in this transition from grain farming
to diversi1ication by the various lines
of experimental work carried on 5y
the experiment station and the sub.
stations. Methods that will lead to
permanent and profitable agricul-
ture are pointed out. Such develop
ments make unnecessary long and ex-
tensive experimental work on 'e part
of the farmer. Hence, progress should
be rapid If advantage is taken of in
formation available.
Through the work of the agricultur-
al extension department and Of the
county agents the information that 10
available is taken directly to the To-
calities desiring to use it. Any farm
er may obtain information upon his
problems if he but desires it.. Mean
while through extension activities and
information published by the argicul-
tural college the progress Of diversid.
cation is steadily forward.
