Railroads Advertised For Settlers

 

Public Attention Is Now Largely Directed To The

Vast New Regions Opened For Settlement By The

Completion of the Northern Pacific Railroad

Through Minnesota, North Dakota, Montana, Northern Idaho, Washington And Oregon;  THERE ARE:

* New towns growing into important trade centers

* Large unoccupied areas of fertile lands.... wheat farming

* Extensive grazing ranges for stock

* Rich mineral districts and heavy bodies of timber

* Navigable rivers, lakes and "innumerable water powers"

* Profitable fisheries

* Exceptional opportunities for Merchants, Manufacturers, Professional Men, Mechanics and Traders to Engage in Business

Is is any wonder that settlers, your ancestors and mine, flocked west in droves???????? The railroad offered something for everybody.
