North Dakota Flowers, Birds and Cowboys

Source: An Official Publication of North Dakota

The wild flowers of North Dakota are everywhere in endless variety and beauty, increasing in number as the summer season advances. The pasque flower, budding forth just as the snows of winter are passing; the violet, delicate and shy, in the low, shady places; the wild rose-the state floweracres of them, perfuming the air by the roadsides in June; the tiger lilies, rich in color, exclusive. aristocratic; the goldenrod of autumn, nodding stiff and stately in the breeze, like the plumes of the knights of old; the spiderwort, deep blue in color: our prairies have no more enchantingly beautiful flower, when seen sparkling with dewdrops in the early morning.

Birds, millions of them; the meadowlark-the bird optimist-with the dark crescent on his breast. heralding the coming of spring with his brave, cheery song; the robin, coming in the night, waking up the sleepy city and farmside with his rushing, joyous, rollicking matin music: the sweet. clear, liquid notes of the diffident prairie plover calling to his mate; the honk of wild geese flying in countless numbers in regular military formation, and the whirring wings of wild ducks of every variety, on their flight to their summer feeding grounds.

The prairies of North Dakota are a big world in its serene, beautiful old age. They are meditative, peaceful, unafraid; a world at rest, benign, gra

clous; a land made for homes and the carefree play and laughter of healthy, happy children.

It was in that long, wide stretch of country, in the western section of our state, that there lived. worked and played one of the most interesting. unique types of character that our country has produced in the process of pioneer development, the cowboy of the plains.
