ALL HISTORICAL SITES IN STATE WILLBE MARKED Landmarks in North Dakota will be Inscribed with Suitable | Tablets Sites of historical trails, camps ant battlegrounds in North Dakota will be marked by parks and monumental tab- Jets, according to the plans! of local | patriotic organizations, Dr. Melvin R. Gilmore, curator of the North Dakota Historical society, recently announced the acquisition of additional, tracts made famous by pi- oneering éxpeditions. The sites have heen ptirchased by communities im which they are located, Dr. Gilmore said, and the historical society has heen made trustee for them. He de- | clared this procedure is followed by communities as rapidly’ as new sites are found to be of unusual value hia- torically.. The state itself has made no purcha of this kind, The varfous sites ure being im- proved “state. parks” from time to time, largely by community subscrip- tion but with occasional state aid. Eventually, according to Dr. Gilmore's plans, each park will contain a plat of ground in which only the native erops, plants’ and grasses of the In- dians will he grown. It is planned also to provide each with specimens of the animals and wild game which formerly ranged the plains of this section, STONE TABLETS In addition to the historical society's projects, the local Daughters of the American revolution contemplate plac- ing stone tablets with appropriate ‘in. scriptions on a number of the sites. Among the historical “finds” recent- ly procured haye been Fort Ransom, near Lisbon on the James river., in the eastern part of the e. and many points along the Sibley trail, marking camps and battles, The paths of such expeditions as those of Lewis and Clarke, Sulley and Fiske are he- ing investigated thoroughly. Particular attention also ig being given to the location of old trading posts maintain- ed by the Hudson Bay and the North- west Fur Trading companies, SITES ACQUIRED! The sites already acquired include the following: Fort Abercrombie. south 6f Fargo on, the Red River; Fort Pembina, two miles from the Canadian boundary, in the northeast- ern corner. of the . state; Walhalia trading post and mission, near Pem- bina on the Pembina river; Lincoln, a short distance southwest of Bismarck on the west bank of the Missouri river; ‘Fort Rice, between Mandan and Cannoyball on the west bank of the Missourf; Fort Clarke, south of Mandan on the Missouri, and a yillage site of the Mandans two miles from Fort Clarke, through which Lewis ‘and: Clarke passed.
