too glad, to cooperate with the people
of North Dakota in lending emphasis
to encouragement Of the dairy indus
try by taking part in this national
demonstration of the exposition" said
Governor r. A. Nestos Of North Dako-
Ia in his address at the National Dairy
Show here late today.
I believe in diversified farming and
think that North Dakota can become
one Of the greatest exponents of di-
versifled agriculture in the union.
Our soil and climate and the freight
rates to which we are subjected give
the diversified type advantage over
single crop farming which few other
states can give"
The need Of rural credits system
was urged by Governor W. H. Nc
Masters Of South Dakota in his ad-
dress.
IF farmers could obtain money to
put into the purchase Of dairy tcat-
tie, much of the present financial bur-
den weighing on the middle western
agriculturists could be eliminated
