I: Bedell of International Falls Returns Full of Enthusiasm The following: has been clipped from the Internatianal Falls Press and will be of interest to readers of the Pioneer. The Louisiana Delta Lands Co. is being represented in Bemidji by Huffman, Harris & Reynolds. It would Dbe impossible to find a more enthusiastic man than was Capt. H. 1. Bedell upon this return from his two weeks trip to the delta lands of Louisiana last Sunday morn- ing. The genial Captain made the trip upon the request of former Representative P. H.' McGarry who visited our town a few weks ago in the interest of the Louisiana Delta Lands Company, at Paradis, La. and for the purpose of securing an agent for the sale of those lands through- out this county. Aftar due consid- eration the real estate firm of Bedell & Keyes made arrangements to take hold of this proposition, provided that a visit to the lands in question would corroborate the statements made upon the literature furnished by the company. It was for this purpose that Captain the trip and he returned with proof of the fruitfulness of the land and he declares to us that after ten days of careful investigation le tha tthe proposition he is now able to make to those who desire a home in the south or an opportunity to make a little safe investment there! for their future years is deserving of consideration. As The Daily Journal said in a recent issue. Captain Bedell has pulled off more successful real estate deals: in this section than any other man in the country, and he has not promoted one which failed to give himself and associates splendid profit on their in- vestment. So sound has his jude-| ment always proved that when he sees a chance to make a good turn he i finds his friends huntiag for him to get in on the same. many of his 2y | speculations having been of a syndi- cate nature, His judgement is al- ways formed by a careful investiga- tion of conditions, whicn policy he pursued in an unusually careful manner in Louisiana. Discussing the trip with the representative of this paper, Capt. Bedsll said: “My trip south was one of the most enjoyable I have ever made and I have been to the artic circle and a-| coss the continent from coast to coast. When Mr. McGarry told me of his proposition, 1 was a little inclined to be skeptical and went south feel- ing that they would have to ‘show me.’ I left here New Year’s night and going to Chicago proceeded at once| to New Orleans, it being but an over- night ride from the former place. I might dwell at length upon the pic- turesqueness of New Orleans and the advantages of its location with refer- ence to ocean traffic but I want to tell you of what I found at Paradis (Paradee), the flourishing city which is growing up in the midst of the thousands of acres of lands which are being réclaimed by the Louisiana Delta Lands Co., which i sthe parti- cular property I went to see. These lands are some twenty-seven miles north of New Orleans and so thoroughly have they been drained by ditches and canals that railroads | connect Paradis with New Orleans, while the canals give water trans- portation to the market center, as do the wagon roads automobile. In the first . place the climate is fine the year around. On Sunday, Jan. 7th, 1 picked organges in my shirt sleeves and at no time while automobiling or on the water did I feel the need of 2 top coat. The climate in the summer 1s said to be rleasant, too, as the altitude of this particular section is sufficient to give it the benefit of th2 gulf breezes, which are always cool. The Louis- iana Delta Lands company is sell- ing its property in ten acre tracts or- ‘multiples thereof, and they have demonstrated that ten acres of the same planted to sugar corn will give | the awner a net income of from $50 to $150 per acre per year, thus pay ing for itself in one year’s time. Fo: the‘man who merely wants an invest- ment, it is a splendid proposition, as it will give him a handsome profit upon his investment.. The company as a part of its contract breaks the land and for a very reasonable sum northern men who reside there per- manently will care for, harvest and market. the crops. Many northern 8| men are going into the district and obtaining tracts of land simply to have a place to spend a part of the winter pleasantly, and are finding that their crops pay interest on their investment and taxes, and leave them more than the amount of mon- ey necessary for the traveling ex- penses of themselves and families and the cost of living during their stay south.. The man who wishes to remain there permanently will be proportionnately rewarded for hig in- vestment, time and labor. This is not guesswork with me, as I inter- viewed northern men who “had set- | tled there and raised crops; I :went to the sugar factories and got infor- | mation, and I talked with bankers and other responsible men, with the evening of the month -t the home of Mrs. H. 6.

The city is made up of northern people and most of the lots are already sold and many fine build- ings. already erected thereon. The railroad, canal and county wagon road runs through it to the magnifi- cent city of New Orleans which is market for all the products of that with-the fact that its climate is de- lighful and salubrious all the year around should make it very attrac- tive to northern settlers especially While suga: cane is tie staple and most important - crop. all kinds of vegetables, fruits and berries can be grown, thus making it an ideal home place. 1 want to say to my friends that if they would like a little respite from the cold of our winters, 1 can; show them a place where a small in-| vestment will give them ample re- ibesides.
