have been made since his former visit,
especially turnout the farming dis

a hundred years. While in Minot the

were astonished to find such beautiful

is practically no fruit whatever there

Bert Plowman, who represents the

turned from the Red River valley last
week and says that notwithstanding
the poor crops generally thruout this
section, he much prefers it to the Red
River valley, as our farmers are more
up-to-date and take greater pride in
the appearance of their premises. We
are glad to see Bert back with US
again and are glad to know that his
employers have given him additional
territory, showing that they appreciate
his services and recognize his ability
Bert Plowman is generally recognized
as one of the best statesmen and gen

in no other line does he warm up with
greater enthusiasm than when ex-
tolling the superiority Of the Delco
lighting plant. With an electric light
plant, good buildings, silo, our farm
ers will have no trouble in keeping
the boys on the farm.

Japan that she will return the terri
