Coz)- and beautiful was the State building it presented forthe inspection of Worlds Fair visitors; the interior of which displayed the products of asoil as productive as that which history tells us is the richest in the world, the overflow ofthe river Nile. What a magnificent State North Dakota is! Destined to be one of thegreatest in America. It contains 45,000,000 acres of land and raises crops of grain which astonishes theworld, the yield of wheat alone having been nearly 65,000,000 bushels for the year 1891.There are only 5,000,000 acres of land under cultivation, which leaves 40,000,000 acresawaiting the push and enterprise of settlers. The harvest seasons, during August, Sep-tember, and October, afford the most delightful climate in the world. Rains are comparatively unknown at such times, and miles of golden grain is seen untilthe sky sinks
