fc-M 15 A r» I *r 1p: S& 'J/1 fif'-vi®' Wjj* •-V Frank Pfarr,' Denlson Merchant, "8o jouminf at Pine Cone Camp, Writes of the Country THE LAND OF 10,000 LAKES Early Settldrs on Verge of Passing Through Transition Period as to Occupation and Livelihood IP1NE GONE CAMP, Dorset, Minn., Aug. 2— This surely Is a great natural play ground, as it will be for the •whole na tion (pending the. development and its familiar knowledge to the inhabitants In our cities. 'Every nation seems to recognize the civic necessity for relax ation and play lor its people—to. di version from the strenuous life which the average American takes much too seriously, and defines life a* a grimi duty without slacking the tension looks upon it as a constant warfare with the powers of. evil that be—90 per cent are imaginary and mere bug-, aboos. Wonder if tfaey will t»e happy/ ia heaven .where Jthere«is nothing of. that kind. Northern Minnesota has more lakes than all the states in the union com bined. In round numbers there ate ten thousand of them, picturesque, see nic. suiblime and when you take to1 these pictures of nature you cannot frelp but think that if Vould take a Raphael or Micfhael Angelo a thous and years to paint one like them. Tn®y are the best imitations leaving out the, artistic Skill of a grealt painter, as al so is a phonograph, a film picture, etc. There are many of the lakes with 4nore than, -600 mil«8 off shore line and the clearest of water, stocked with all varieties of fish.- Certain lakes foave certain kinds of Ash, viz. Big Sfend ie noted fpr musktfhrage, Leech lake for pike and pickerel, etc., while on- land1 adjoining you will find traces of itihe extinct Ibuffalo and moose, and occasionally see a bUftk Ijoar pr deer, in the regions not protected by the game tow. Where there is such pro tection, viz., Itasca, 'Porte an A other places, they abound in good numbers. In .the air we have the crane, the Won, mallards' and wild dufeks and geese that feed on the wild rtce fields in the shallow waters, of the lakes. They vie with the Chippewas in har vest timfe, as the rice is a dlsfe highly prized by the nktives, and soane is al po shipped to Minneapolis and other cities. Tie Chippewa Indian is now confined to the CJilppewa reservation and the fertile ground of their last stand is found on Bear Island in Leech lake. The early, settlers aire on the Verge tot passing through ji transMQf P«r.iPd. as to their occupation and means .of livelihood. Perhaps about twenty, years ago ea«h.gtown man was ^^^ert in the liiiinbffr industry ^the farmers would make a /makeshift at tempt at farming iij enimner months, and hi winter be employed at logging— come out with- $1000 or $1200 in the spring. Now since ttoat industry^ as far qs thid part" is cdncekmeft is indent 'history, «nd they are obliged took aftqr their fanmitig interests atid espe ciaAfy dairying is a suotSessWl line. All grasses and grain is indigenous to 'this part of Maine—growing voluntar ily anywhere without any "effort. This Obuntry needs a good amount of rain 'and usually gets it, as the sandy soil radiates the heat li|de a furnafce and VHries ou.t quickly., The best poitatoes. In America are raised in northern Min nesota. I It is a novel and interesting sta4yj ior one from the prairies Iowa to ®ee the different kinds of trees, white ipine, pitch pine, jack pine, white pop iar. balm of Gilead or black poplar, ^birck, tamaitoick, jack oak, maple (that iield sugar). Ali the small frni'ts grow' in abundance, strawberries, red and felack raspberries, black berimes and' ?the jBne&t of all the blue terries, as thick in places as hair on a dog's batok and as large as cranberries. When one studies the resources of Ithis part of Minnesota one can't help but «'ee a wonderful picture for this Country. Just nibrth ot here some 500 or 1000 miles extends a range of hiHs from' .Duluth west. No geologist has •been able to And the limits of this ta«ore»with 4 ia% ibelt of iron ore.. Some is oped Off theiuMsce after tak Off a thin layer of«oil,' and even tts down a$ Leech lake you can find a magnet-iibpaytag quati-• titieis. It is known that these iron Meads dt Minnesota, Michigtan and Wiafionsiii are the most extensive in 'the *wortd and the Immense demand for iron and steel in our country will develop this into a gigantic, industry in ibhe ne^t twenty-five years, and if our 'young men are. seeking a land of promise, here It is. No matter if: you watft, to' take up farming, poultrying. dairying or what not, here is a oomlng market at handsome prices for any ^thiijg that may be produced. The climate here, eight months of ithe jrearj, is almost ideal: No oppress ive hot .days*,, or smothering sleepless nights. You think you. weigh about half as much as in the middle Missis sippi' valley and you can exert your self •without, any discomfort. There are drawbacks, as they say "It is world ail over," and one Of them is cold winters. Ice1, freezes here 38 to 40 inches thick and the temperature is often 44 to 50 degrees below zero. One met .middle «£$• when the fires begin to burn low, drefeds it, yet the natives declare it 1b not so unbearable as it seems, as it 1b more £ry than in the low regions, hence hot such Chilling, hi ting sensations idf cold.
