Why We Have a Stock Show in Dakota Territory
The stock association explains why the Dakota region west of Devils Lake supports cattle year round. It argues winter conditions are dry and invig orating, cattle do not suffer, and winters require less care than in Montana or Colorado. It asserts locals show healthier herds and that skeptics refuse to visit the area.
