kind of growth was about the only
redeeming feature as far as the crops
are concerned. A system of tile
drainage to cost the neighborhood of
$4,000 has been started on the farm.
From there on further west the
same conditions seemed to prevail.
Water stood in many of the fields,
the corn and grain looked sickly and
yellow from too much moisture and
in many places vast tracts remain
uncuItivated on account of the wet
season.
'One thing struck us more fOrcibly
than anything else of the country
around Morris. They raise the finest
and most abundant fields of clover
and timothy the writer has ever seen.
Red clover stands were seen that one
would almost think it was impossible
to get thorugh with mower, while
timothy in immense tracts was a
common sight. Very little wild hay
seems to be raised in that section.
The country, from Litchfeld west
seems to be in the thick Of one of the
most terrific land booms the north
west has ever seen. In every town
visited were seen men looking for
land and sales are fast and furious.
At Litchfield several tracts have been
sold for as high as $3.50 per acre, and
large tracts at that. Farther west
there was great activity and land
values have jumped in the last few
weeks at a terrific rate. Half sec
ton tracts with only fair buildings
have sold as high as 1925 per acre,
while smaller pieces sold for still
more. Naturally, there is quite lit
tie cheaper land in every community
land that has not been so well devel-
oped, but even this is being bought
up by new arrivals form Iowa and
Illinois. We met one farmer who had
disposed of his quarter section in
Iowa at $3.50 per acre and he had
just that day purchased a half section
in Stevens county that cost him $95
per- acre and he stoutly maintained
that the land was fully as good, il
not better, than his farmer farm.
1--WE met another man who had the
previous day purchased large tract
comprising almost half section who
had formerly been engaged in farm
ing in Montana. He said his cattle
were almost starving on his old place
and he intended to ship every heat
to his new farm just as soon as he
could get cars to carry them. Min
nesota and eastern North Dakota are

with barn manure and still another
fortified with commercial fertilizer.
Then there is a plot of ground on
which will be found various kinds of
wheat all being raised under the same
conditions. Farther along are found
various plots of oats of different var
ieties being raised under the same
conditions, while still farther down
are experimental plots on which rye,
barley and other small grains are
being raised side by side under the
same conditions but all being given
different treatment. When these
plots are harvested each one is
threshed out separately and the grain
is carefully weighed and tested to de-
termine which is the most profitable
method. Farmers from all over that
section visit the station and avail
themselves of the opportunity to get
information that is invaluable to
them in their occupation and means
more money in their pocket. The
excellent state of cultivation in
which many of the farms we're found
is undoubtedly due to the lessons
learned at the state farm school.
From Morris we drove west on the
green trail to Alberta and Chokio.
At the latter town we counted six
large grain elevators-and about as
many business places of other kinds.
Here the country again becomes
somewhat fat and a great deal of
tile drainage is necessary to bring
the land to the high state of cultiva-
ton warranted by the excellent
character of the soil. We visited one
farm in this section which contains
an excellent set of buildings and is
splendidly fenced and crOss-fenced
with woven wire into plots of about
forty acres each. On the entire half
section there wasn't to exceed 80
acres of good crops, the balance be-
ing drowned out An alfalfa field OF

a Paradise compared to the western
country he said.
"Of one thing we are thoroughly
convinced since our return from this
trip. The farmer in the west central
portion of the state who will devote
himself to the proper cultivation of
the soil and use the same intellient
methods that our farmers use will be
rewarded by larger and more lib
eral return for his efforts than are
our farmers. The soil in many
places is fully as rich and being
newer, is more productive. For some
reason the straw stands up better
and a much heavier stand can be
safely produced. This fact possibly
accounts for some of the heavy grain
yields that are reported from that
section.
"In the dairy industry that section
is far behind this. Creameries are
not nearly as thick as they are here,
although many new ones are in pro-
cess of construction. At Chokio a
fine new creamery is now being put
up, the structure being of white
brick that will surely make an i'm
posing appearance. Many large herds
of milk COWS are found in that sec
ton, but until now all the cream has
been separated and shipped.
In many places splendid herds Of
cattle were seen, most of them being

jority Of these are kept for beef stock
and are fattened or topped Off on
the immense crops of corn raised in
that section
THE farmer in this section who
can possibly spare the time can hard
ly devote it to better purpose than
taking a trip through the west cen
trail portion of the state by auto, not
ing the conditions that prevail in the
different communities, talking with
the farmers, and exchanging ideas
with them. 1t will prove both pleas
ant and instructive"
