back Willie Richie some years ago.
Tender. starting with great confidence
and skill. carried the fight to the cham

lead and jaw and brought blood to the

round his mouth bumped Tender

Ten Years Hence
by J. H. Worst, Commissioner of

lmmigration.)
The next ten years should show q
tremendous upward stride in the in
dustrial affairs of North Dakota. This
will be accomplished largely by farm
ers eliminating many elements of risk
now SO obvious, from their vocation.
Instead of depending mainly on wheat
las money crop butterfat, steers,
hogs, wool, mutton and poultry will
become the principal sources Of in
come. The acreage devoted to corn,
potatoes, sweet clover and alfalfa,
moreover, can cut the wheat acreage
in half without materially reducing
the annual production Of that cereal.
Instead of an average Of eleven bu-
shells of wheat per acre the yield will
4 be raised to twenty-five bushels per
acre or better.
But little wheat should be planted
except on corn stubble or potato
ground, on moderate sized farms. On
large farms summer titled fallow
ground may be included with the
corn stubble, potato ground and
where other cultivated crops were
grown the previous season. And for
the reason that this system of crop
rotation very largely lessons the risk
of crop failure on account Of drought
and weeds, which are so largely re-
.sponsible for drought.
It is generally conceded that farm
ing is a gamble. And it is, but it
need not be a reckless gamble. While
it cannot be made 'sure thing"
nevertheless many obvious menaces
to profitable crops may be avoided.
With livestock it is different. While
the farmer cannot entirely control
conditions that affect his animal hus-
bandry operations, yet the chances
ARE more largely in his favor. With
comfortable quarters, abundance of
feed and proper care there is COM
paratively small risk in managing
livestock. Moreover, the byproduct of
livestock, so seldom taken into &C.
count, maintains the fertility Of the
soil which not only increases the yield
Of grain and forage crops, but lessons
the risk of crop failure on account of
drought.
predict that ten years hence corn,
sunfowers, sweet clover and alfalfa
and the livestock they support will
make all-wheat farming, as at pres
'ent conducted, take its place among
some of our other pioneer blunders.
Instead of precarious income the
farmer may enjoy practically sure
income by taking several farm activi-
ties into account. This has been am
ply demonstrated. But where he de-
ponds on one crop and that the most
risky of all crops as well as the most
exhausting Of his invested capital, his
land, the chances Of ultimate bank
ruptcy are too intimate to be enter
tanned. The one crop system, while it
made few exceptional farmers pros
porous, nevertheless, it is largely re-
sponsible for the tremendous mort
gage Indebtedness of the state and
the loss of many homes thru mort
gage foreclosure. On the other hand
farmers who depended largely on live
