O.F. 8. ——— -e ’ IN THE NORTHWEST, ; Tyxer Criry, Dee. 2, 1894, EpITOR INDEPENDENT : '| If you can find space in your paper for this article you will confer a favor, as 80 many people are asking us re- ' | garding our trip to North Dakota. By | publishing this it will probably satisfy the minds of many friends concerning ' | the northwest. 'l We left Walkerton Oct. 9 for North | Dakota. We landed in Mayville, N. D., Oct. 11, and found our ecarriage | awaiting our arrival. We drove over a | large territory of the Red River valley, lying west and south of Mayville. On | returning to our hotel we found our friend, Max Bass, and arranged to | take a trip north and east on the fol lowing day. We must confess that in our rambles in the Red River valleyi we saw some of the mmost beautiful and productive country that our eyes ever beheld. On returning to Mayville we stopped to look at a corn field of 200 acres which was a perfect picture. In our judgement it would yield at least from 50 to 60 bushels per acre. We next took in the vegetable gardens near the town. We muast confess that they arve axior to ours of Indiana. Near the town we also saw a very “fine mnewn or our common red clover which had been sowed last spring. Wa aldcsaw small fruits that were bearing abundantly. We were convinced, with all our prejndices against North Dakota that it is in some respects superior to Indiana. Being satisfied with our visit to the Red River valley we boarded the train for Larmour, Devil's Lake and Churel’s TFerry. From the latter place we went to Cando where we met quite a number of those who went from Walkerton lust spring. Among them were A. B. Peters, Henry Tord, Ira Sibert, Mr. Beckwith, the Steel . boys, and others, all of whom seem | well pleased with the conntry. We were conveyed to the home of Mr. Ford on Saturday evening. On Sunday we visited William Walterhouse, who seemed very much pleased over his location. We traveled over a ; large territory around Cando. The soil of that section is a little more | sandy than that of the Red River valley, but just as productive. Trom | Cando we traveled to Turtle mountain by team so ¢« to obtain a better view ot the country. We spent almost two weeks in coustaut travel either by rail or team. By so doing w»saw a large | territory, and were also fortunate enough to meet quite a number of prominent farmers, who claim that Dakota is the state to emigrate to. We are convinced that it is a good state for young men of push and energy.
