Prairie lands near Roseau eyed for rail link prospects
Roseau and surrounding precincts in northwest Minnesota offer rich prairie farm lands not yet opened by railways. Settled government land and expanding farms stretch up to sixty miles from rail points, with stock farming and profitable crops. Prospects hinge on two potential railroad lines crossing the region, including a Great Northern line from Thief River Falls and a possible Sea line extension.
