SLOPEFARMERS
HAVE NOT LOST
THEIR FAITH
German Russians Find Lit
tie "Cheap Land" For Sale
Despite Drought.

Bismarck, N. D., July 22.-Thrifty
South Dakota farmers with an eye toI
a bargain-especially those of Ger
man. Russian extraction-are flocking!
in great numbers to the Slope. counties
with a view to picking up cheap lands
there. In former wears Of drouth
many farms have been sacrificed,
and the South Dakotans evidently
have been Of h opinion that history
would repeat itself. They are, how
ever, meeting disappointment.
While the drouth has hit many
farmers, hard, it has found compare
lively few who are not in a financial
position to weather the storm. This
Is due largely to the fact that dairying
has made rapid strides in the slope
country during the last five years. The
daily or semi-weekly cream check has
become a steady our OF income.
Many q farmer. milking only a few
head Of cattle, has a certain revenue
of a thousand dollars or more from
who are dairying were p~rovident
enough in the spring to plant a con-
siderable. acreage Of corn. Corn is
making a better than average crop
and will go a long way toward solv-
ing the feed problem.
There is very little improved land
on the market in the Slope. Farmers
generally nave too much invested to
let it go by the boards for one sea-
sons bad luck. The visitors from
South Dakota and other, points are,
however, picking up nice tracts Of
wild land here and there. and indica-
lions are that more ground will be
broken on the Slope this fall and next
spring than ever before in its history.
The truth Of the assertion that tits
an i'll wind that blows no one good is
proven by the fact that land which
will yield little or no crop this sum-
mer will enjoy all of the benefits of
summer following. and if conditions
are favorable to blowing this fall.
large areas should be in splendid con-
dition for planting to winter rye-one
crop which e. seems to make q
complete failure in this section.
Slope farmers are good sportsmen,
and already they are turning their at
tention to the prospects for another
season. There will be more fall plow-
ing; more careful rolling and packing
of seed beds next spring, and, after
four years Of only fair crops, the turn
Of the wheel should by all the laws OF
averages make next year one Of abb
normal yields which will more than
repay those who stick for the losses
they have sustained.

Mrs. Waldron sisters. Dr.. Wal

inspection of the Slope country, with
which he became thoroughly familiar
during his ten years service as in
v~estigator in charge of the Dickinson
experimental station. He found con-
ditions west of the river far below the
average.
A conference to which the railway

ance is being held here today with a

visit had anything to do with the
prospective appointments. Mr..
Lemke went east on the same train
that carried. Governor Frazier. By
coincidence, former Senator Leslie A.
Simpson Of Dickinson was also on this
train. Mr.. and Mrs. Simpson were en-
route to Chicago. The former Stark

business that should he be selected

seems to be the general opinion that

and The southwestern section Of this
circuit has not had representation on
the bench for years.

I went with them as far Ss the Bruges road, just outside Ghent. We kept to the fields as much as pes sible, and travelled by night, sleeping by day in the friendly farmhouses. We saw little of the enemy until we were in sight of Ghent. Then we were pulled up by a rifle shot as we crossed a field, and before we could retrace our steps a number of Germans came running towards us. There was a rough fight, the HtghIanders, who were unarmed, using their fists, while the Germans used bayonets and rifles.
 One of the Germans deliOera teIy aimed at me, and was just about to fire when one of the Highlanders-his name was MaCrae-rushed in be- tween us.
