.nesota In “Movies” Is Revelation : To United States Land Show Visitors This fact does not need emphasizing. With this idea in mind Louis W. Hill, chairman of tbe Great Northern Rallway, concentrated his forces of immigratlon agents in a concerted advertising campaign for northern Minnesota at the United States Land Show in the Celiseum, Nov. 20-Dec. 8. The mation picture film of the Minnesota state Immigration commission was borrowed for the purpose, and CH!OAGO, ILL.—Nearly everybody that reads knowe Minnesota 1s the “Bread and Butter" State. three lllustrated lectures daily were delivered in the Great Northern’s exclusive lecture hall. On an average of 8,000 people attended these lectures dally during the three weeks of the land show. The moving plctures especial- ly gave a comprehensive idea of the wonderful possibilities that await the homeseeker in the logged off land sec- tions of northern Minnesota. Besldes, the motion pictures showed harvesting scenes in the Gopher State which opened the eyes of the spec- tators. Minnesota products formed a big sectlon of the Great Northern Railway’s mammoth exhibit upon the main floor of the Coliseum. 3 B. C. Leedy, general immigration agent of the Great Northern Railway, and his corps of immigration agents did | their most effective missionary work during the week of the International Live Stock BExposition, when thousands of Iowa, Nebraska, Illinois, Michigan and Indiana farmers who came to town to see the cattle display also attend- ed the land show.

The entire defense forces of South Africa, including the regulars and the citizens reserve, are being mobilized for the protection of property which the government believes to be threat- ened. The strikers, have tied up railroad trafiic in the Transvaal and the Or ange State, but have not yet succeed ed in interfering with transportation in Cape Colony and Natal. Thé authorities in mobilizing the forces are looking toward a much greater danger than that of the strike.
