i - ALL EYES ON NORTH DAKOTA NORTH DAKOTA has received more national advertising during the past year than any state in the union because of the Farmers’ Nonpartisan Political League and its activity. MILLIONS,OF FARMERS outside the state have their eyes on North Dakota. When'the farmers secure complete control of North Dakota and with the carrying out of the farmers’ legis- lative program; the passing of laws making farming more attractive in North Dakota; the establishment of North Dakota markets for North Dakota products; the giving of state hail insurance to the farmers; the - . exemption of fairm improvements from taxation; the establishing of just— grades and dockage on grain; these and other laws for the benefit of the farming industry—and the abolishment of political graft in this state— WILL BRING THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS OF FARMER' HOMESEEKERS INTO NORTH DAKOTA. . . : To Bring Buyer and Seller Together B e G e N WITHOUT SOME PREPARATION and organization to prevent it, North ey it i Dakota farmers and the homeseekers would be at the mercy of the land : | i ShEtegd T sharks, the real estate middlemen-or brokers. These men would reap a ; ? L TTF €Y profit as a result of YOUR WORK AND EFFORT-IN BUILDING UP Dmiek J , ; S NORTH DAKOTA. The object of the: real estate department of the ; e SALF League Exchange is to BLOCK THE LAND SHARK’S GAME, make his S : services unnecessary, and to bring the incoming land buyer and homeseeker Sesn NSRRI e ; S ? A | in direct touch with the land owner who- wishes to sell—TO GIVE THE - 5 3 £ : S 2 v - FARMER THE BENEFIT OF HIS OWN EFFORT. The League s Ve 5t : ; oy L] Exchange will bring the buyer and seller together; bring the homeseeker ‘ L 3 S RS At to the door of the farm owner and make it possible for them teo close their " || e : : bargain without the assistance of the land shark.
