On May 11, 1858, territorial habiliments were laid aside, and the garments of state- hood were donned. This was pursu- ant to the signing of an enabling act by President Franklin Pierce grant- ing the privileges of statehood after a constitution had been framed. The territorial government for Minnesota was established at St. Paul, June 1, 1849, after congress had given such authority. Although much opposition presented itself from time to time, St. Paul has continued to be the capitol. The most strenuous efforts to wrestle this honor away and giver it to St. Peter was made at the first| session of the state legislature. Now Among the Leaders. Until recent years little was heard of Minnesota in connection with the production of corn, but of late it has forged to the front until it now must be considered as one of the leadingz, corn states of the great American Corn Belt. In 1890 there were only 768,000 acres of corn raised in Minnesota. Ten years later but 205,000 acres had been added. In 1910 there were 1,- 724,000 acres. Then came the for- ward movement. In 1914 over 2,- 600,000 acres were raised, and A. D. ‘Wilson, superintendent of farmers’ institutes, says that the 1915 crop will push the 3,000,000 acres mark hard.

Last year she was close to the top. These authentic figures place Min- nesota far ahead of any other state in the same latitude, and well up among the states along her southern border. If an average of 35 bushels is obtained from 3,000,000 acres this year, the total crop placed in bushel baskets would girdle the earth one and a half times. Local corn shows, the immigration of tens of thousands of farmers from the middle Corn Belt, the instruction of short courses and institutes, the attention paid corn growing in the schools, the educational campaign conductéd by farm papers and news- papers—these and many other fac- tors have made Minnesota a real corn state. Most persons, however, believe that the boys’ corn contest movement merits a large share of the credit. Nearly 5,000 boys, including several from Beltrami county, are competing this year. The corn shown in the boys’ corn class at the Minnesota State Fair, September 6 to 11, is ex- pected to be greater in amount than all other classes. Recent govern- ment statistics show that Minnesota leads: the states in large yields per acre, 710 boys having grown at least sixty bushels. The state second in ‘rank is JTowa with only 166. The immense corn crop is making a great livestock state out of Minne- sota, for there most be more hogs and cattle toeat it'up. Livestock, in turn, is encouraging balanced farm- ing and helping to prevent a waste ofrsoil fertility. All hail King Corn!
