Prof Kaufman writes the Minneapolis Journal on North Dakota’s agricultural rise. He notes cheap lands from $3 to $15 an acre, abundant wheat and flax production, high per capita yields, expanding grass crops and stock raising. Dairy interest grows with successful creameries yoking Shorthorn and other breeds.

North Dakota Farm Loan Boom Promises Big Mortgage Rise
North Dakota's wheat crop and new settlements spur abundant farm mortgage demand in the northeast and northwest. Rail expansion by Great Northern and Soo lines opens rich but unsettled tracts, drawing immigrants, small town growth, and a wave of new banks focused on farm loans. Stronger money needs and high crop prosperity propel a farm loan boom across northern North Dakota.
