ee aes The Aristocracy of the Prairie Farmer. The self-made man of the Eastern elty may be enlightened by this tale of a self-made prairie farmer. “TI came to North Dakota twenty- one years ago from Iowa. I had six broken-down plogs of horses, twe steers and two plows. Had no money and was thousand dollars in debt. I rented a farm for five years before I bought any land. Then I made up my mind to buy land on my own account, and bought two sections on time. Then I kept on raising wheat and buying land until I owned five thousand acres of land, all paid for. In the twenty-one years I clpwred out of the ground in clean money, raising wheat, two hundred and forty thoueand dollars. Last year I sold four thousand acres and bave quit raising wheat. Iam now on my way to Cuba, where my wife and Iwill spend the winter. Whenever I go back East I try to get my old friends and neighbors to come out here and share my pros perity.”—Ralph D.
