c. ]. Kelly and President J. M
Thompson of the Devils Lake State
Bank, returned last Sunday from an
auto trip over the western portion
of the state where both gentlemen
own land. They followed the T. R.
highway as far as Mondak, Mont,
then went north to Crosby, and re-
turned by the way of Mohall and the
northern section of the state. Both
gentlemen insists that there are CROPS
in the western portion of the state,
and especially north and west of Minot
that could not possibly look any bet
ter than they do, and that the farmers
there would all become millionaires
in very short time were such crops
harvest every year. Mr.. Kelly told
US that he went out there for the pur-
pose Of trying to dispose of his hold
ngs, but after seeing the grain fields
he changed his mind, and We don't
think it would take much to induce
him to going into the farming game
himself right now.
