FARMERS OF
RED RIVER ARE
PR0SpERING
Value Of Their Livestock To
day 10 Times That Of
38 Years Ago

Brainerd, Minn., Jan. 49, -LP)--
Though farm acreage in the Red Riv-
or valley has less than quintruplcd
since 1880 and the number of farms
has multiplied slightly less than four,
yet the livestock and their value to-
day are ten times the figures Of 38
years ago.
This declaration was made today by
c. G. Selvig, superintendent of the
Northwest School of Agriculture and
Experiment station ut CrOokstOn, be-
fore the 48th annual convention of
the Minnesota State Dairymen's asso-
citation here today.
"By 1880 there were 1861 farms
of 1856 acres each in the Red River
valley, making total Of l,425,O 900
acres in farms," he asserted. "This
total had increased in 1910 to 28,437
farms of 21l acres each, making a
total of 6,01O,O00 acres in FARMS"
In livestock production, Mr.. Selvig
declared the Red River valley farm
ers have made tremendous progress.
In 1880 there were, according to cen
sus figures, 1910 head of livestock
or 10 per farm, valued at $2,374,O00-
In 1918 the number had increased to
76,13l head of livestock, or 26 per
farm, valued at $26,142,OOO, he said.
Besides increase of purebred cat
tie, he listed the introduction Of al
falfa and sweet clover as feeds as
important, with the early establish
ment of creameries, tuberculosis
eradication, COW testing, calf clubs,
increased production, lowered costs,
and producing of high quality butter
as major items in the dairyization Of
the valley.

LAND OFFICE
RECORDSSHOW
rs GOOD YEAR
Persons Having Farm Loans
Are Paying More Prompt
Iy, Says Kositzky

If receipts Of the state land office
arc fair indication, 1926 was one OF
the most prosperous years in the his
tory Of North Dakota, Carl II. Kositz-
ky, state land commissioner, said to.
day. Total receipts for 1926 were
$3,O15.94 as compared with ST.,
300, 1912 for the previous year.
kositzky bases his observation OH
the fact that his office had available
for investment in school bonds and
farm loans $2,273 500 in 1926 as com.
pared with $725,5O7 in 1924.
The difference, KOsitzky said, is
due to the fact that persons having
farm loans are paying them more
promptly and apparently are in finan.
cially better position to do so. Con.
tract for the purchase Of state lands
normally extend for 20 years, bu,
in many eases farmers are paying
them in from seven to ten years.
488 Patents Issued
In 1924, Kositzky's report shows
the state issued 286 land patents OF
original deeds for 10000 acres OF
land. In 1926 it issued 488 patents
for approximately $4,000 acres.
In 1924 the land office recorded
final statisfactions Of PIT farm loans
In 1926 the number increased to $40.
Another significant factor is that
the number Of applications for final
patents has shown the remarkable
increase in the history of the land
office since January /, 1926. Kositzky
said. Since that date total of 81
applications have been received from
persons who have completed pay.
