BIG RECEIPTS AT LAND OFFICE Large Payments At Crookston on Red Lake Indian Lands. In. a special dispatch from Crook- ston the Duluth Herald says:— Twelve thousand six. hundred and twenty-eight dollars was taken in during the six days of last week by Receiver August George of the Crook- ston United States land office, aud during the next few weeks it is likely that the receipts of the office will average even above that high figure. The reason for the enormous rush of money into the land offiee is the fact that the first payment on Red Lake Indian lands is due, and settlers are paying in accordance with their‘terms of settlement. On an average, twenty peyments per day are made, and the amount received by the officials from each individual settler ranges from $80 to $100, and even as high as $200 on choice descriptions. A million and a half of money will be paid in during the next few years at the Crookston land office. New business at the office contin- ues at a rate that is surprising, and hardly a day passes but what a pum- ber of entries are made out and a dozen or more prospective homestead- ers fitted out with facts aud figures relative to Jand’ upon which they intend to locate.

The butter is ship- ped to the New York amarket yr wherever the highest price can secured and passes through the hands of no middle men for a divisiun of the profit. This is not only more profitable for the farmers but more satisfactor} for the merchants. The storekeeper who has to take butter in trade is always at a disadvantage. the co-operative creamery is the best and most profitable system of dairy- ing in every way and itis the system for which we should aim in North- eastern Minnesota. ‘To operate a creamery most success- fully there should be 500 cows within aradius of five miles. A creamery may be operated with 300 cows even at more profit than by making the butter at home. Very often acream- ery is built before the conditions are ready for it. A creamery does not mean successful dairying unless it has the cows back of it and the farm- ers interested in the work. The first movement toward a cream- ery should be to increase the number of cows and get the land cleared to grow feed for them. it will hardly pay to build a creamery unless it can be operated the year around, and to do this the cows must be fed in j winter. With 30 acres of land cleared s ns ;: aod lafarmer can easily keep ten cows. plumbing a certified check for the} pen cows properly cared for will bring in a net profit of $400 a year for butter ulone. The skim milk when fed to calves and pigs will also bring Probate Notice.

Why is this? Does Canada offer any greater attraction to immigrants than Minnesota? Is her sgil aay richer, any more accessible than Min- nesota’s? Are her markety any handier or any more profitable? The answer to all these questions is emphatically no. a's |: opportunities are just aa. » as those of any state in the union, or any country in the world, Her soft is rich, her terms of sale are. resaon- able, and her markets are near and. capable of absorbing all that may be raised. What, then, is the secret? What is the lrdestone that 1s attracting foolish homeseekers out of their land, over the soil of Minnesota? It must be potent, because it has even drawn people ftom Minnesota, who have sought the will-o’-the-wisp suc- cess across the Canadien border. It is advertising. Canada, seeking to fill ber vast and broadened acres with productive farms, set about it systematically and wisely, and inau- gurated u campaign of advertising.
