175,000 Acres of Land for Solei From $5.00 to $15.00 Per Acre

Most Prosperous T. H. Anderson bought 245 acres in Ramsey county three • years ago at sl2 per acre. The first two years the land netted him $25 an acre, and last year he bought an 80-acre tract adjoining his farm at $25 an acre. He seeded 75 acres of this with flax, from which he threshed 1,725 bushels and sold it for $2,242.50 or $242,50 more than the land cost him. He had 268 acres in flax, wheat, barley, oats and speltz, which he sold for an aggregate of $5,026, or more than his entire farm cost him. West of the Missouri River In this part of North Dakota settlers find an agreeable climate, a rich and easily tilled soil, abundance of fine pasturage, good water, and large deposits of lignite •coal. The winters are shorter and milder than in the eastern part of the state. Cattle and sheep require but little food during the winter months, except what the open ranges supply, while horses do not have to be fed at all. -

Whose Roof Are You Under?

You can buy a quarter sectiou I and homestead a quarter section, giving you 320 acres of land for a I very little money. ’ It will only cost you a trifle to | homestead 160 acres of bnd at I Mandan, North Dakota. No better country out of doors for reliable farming than North I Dakota, and especially this sec- I tion. i A rolling prairie, good rich < soil, purest of well water from fifteen to fifty feet, land covered with most nutrious grasses, coal almost | at the settler’s door, for the cost of ’ free homesteads adjoining or near by, that can be had for 1 filing. I A renter in the older States is the most foolish man on earth. He can buy a farm in North Dakota on terms so his yearly payments 1 will be less than he pays for rent i now. Quit renting and own a home. You can’t do it where you I are. Come to North Dakota.
