ing period, with the government
supplying the necessary premises

Agricultural training schools in

Luther w. Youngdahl of Mime
sofa is a lifelong resident of that
state.
vegetables and fruits. In the state
are found most of the plants, crops
and animals of the north temperate
zone.
1t is claimed that only one
other state has more acres Of
good soil than Minnesota. More
than 80 million acres of its land
are devoted to farming. Farm
ers constitute one-third of Min
nes0ta's population and produce
more than billion dollars
worth of agricultural goods
each year. Food, fibre, livestock
and livestock products pour out
riches for Minnesota.
But Minnesota does not depend on
the topsoil alone, however rich it
may be. Beneath the surface are
other sources of wealth. 1t produces
more iron ore than any other dis
trict in the world. The first mines
were opened in 1884 in the Vermil-
lion range, and for the first 20 years
they produced a million tons an
nually. In 1892 the Mesabi range
was opened and in it's first 10 years
averaged five million tons a year.
During the next Is years these
ranges had an annual production of
five million tons. Added to these is
the Guyana range which yields
million tons a year. During the war
years, when demands for steel we're
extremely heavy, all of the Mime
sofa mines produced record ton
nages of iron ore Most of the min
ing is open-pit, with power shovels
loading the ore on trains which take
it to Chicago, Gary, Erie and other
steel centers.
Valuable Forests.
Forests, which cover nearly one
third of Minnesota. produce 80 mil
lion dollars worth of products each
year in the form of pulpwood for
paper, insulation, plywood and 9TH
ers. Even more important is their
value for lumber, for fuel, and for
the protection and maintenance of
lakes, streams and natural beauty.
