SCOTIA, N. D., Oct. 19, 1905. Editor of Review and Herald: I feel impressed to write you, this beautiful Sabbath day, concerning the grand opportunities awaiting workers in this part of the great northwest termed North Dakota.
The crops this year are unusually fine, prices are good, and farmers all have plenty of money.
We are an isolated family of Sabbath-keepers, living three miles from the Canadian line, in the famous Mouse River country, one of the most fertile portions of the state. We live on a main traveled road, about twenty rods from a schoolhouse, which is open to all denominations, and is now occupied every Sunday by either the Methodists or Presbyterians. The people are, on the whole, religiously inclined, the greater portion in our immediate vicinity being English Canadians, although the general population is composed of persons coming from all parts of the United States, especially from Michigan.
We believe that the golden opportunity for the canvasser to make a small fortune, besides doing a vast amount of good, is just now. We will provide a home for two consecrated workers as long as they wish to remain. Yours in the faith, BENJ. F. BANKS.
[If any canvassers or others intend to visit this place, they should first write to Brother Banks.—Ed.]
