The hand that rocks the rural cradle In thin section It going to be a big factor In packing "lmmlgrnnt move ablca" for Montana aud Oregon points ere long, if tlie unutuul attondanco of women visitors to the Great Northern Railway's Oregon- Montana exhibit car is any criterion. The wives of fifty farmers drove from a radius of 14 miles tovUlttbo "exposition on wheels" in Swansea yesterday. Tin In terest of this feminine delrgatiou waa productive of promising results, for today their husband came in from tbe countrysido to tuuke further Ingulres and view the products of these Mates which mads such a favorable Im pression upon the women folk. No fewer than twenty-five fam ilies went to Montana and Ore gon from round about Bwunze last year and their letters writ ten to tho farmers "back home" roused so much interest that the organized pilgrimage to the ex hibit car resulted. The men folk were akeptcal about the car of products, It transpired, so the womon "hitched up'' and drove to town anyway, giving curiosity as an excuse. Tho glowing ac counts thy carried borne with them did the rest and today, after these fanners had spent two hours In the exhibit car they frankly confessed thut they never had any idea Montana and Ore gon could raise such a variety of banner products on land that does not cost one-fifth of wbnt Indiana land Is held at. They all ''allowed" there was something in the argument tbeir discontent ed wives had been agitating as tho result of those letters from the Northwest written by the erstwhile lloosiers telling of vast Improvement lu their conditions sine moving into the newer country whore the prices of agri cultural land is not prohibitory as it is in tbe more deusely set tied middle west. These people, who found their awakening in tho marvelous products which Louis Hill, pres ident of tbe Great Northern Rail way Is exhibiting broadcast through thlj part of the country, for the mort part, represent the large population of the land rent ers who are paying as high as $9,00 per acre rental. They are tired of the struggle for little more than a living. Nearly all by dint of frugality, have saved a nest egg after ten or more years of tilling tho other fellow's tract, with the landlord getting tbe lion's share. They now realize they might have owned their own land had tbey gone west years ago. The comparatively cheap lands of Moutana and Oregon appeal strongly to these folks. They are all diversified farmers and the products cbown in the Great Northern a exhibit car was a revelation to them. For Sale. miles from torn, . lor aale or trade.
