Off For the North and Northwest Are Many Jasperites.

Ho! for the west. —- Jasper county people are going to have a look at the countries to the north and northwest. Lured by the stories of the abundant opportunities for the man of moderate means and a lot of energy some of our best farmers are prospering in the states of Michigan and North Dakota. T. G. Brown and son Walter, L. H. and Fred L. Markley and Frank Hellengren left this Tuesday morning for Larimore, N. Dak., the place where Bud Hammond has made his ten strike. They were in charge of a real % iestate dealer. W. P. Gaffield headed a party to Fountain, Mich., composed of James E. Miller and wife, Chas. Gallaher and F. L. Beach. All of them are prospective investors, while some have already made arrangements to move to Dakota another year.
