What's the Matter With Pierce County?
E. Gunderson's wheat turned out 30
and Tom Oksendahls 49, and other
out equally as we'll The remarkable
feature which is most wildly impressed
on the minds of every one is the fact
that thousands Of acres of just such
land as produced these enormous wheat
crops are lying unoccupied and open to
settlement within ten miles of Rugby,
our county seat, a town destined to be
one of the most prominent business
points in the state, situated as it is
in the center of the Antelope valley,
and at the junction of the Great North
ern's main line and Bottineau branch,
with every prospect Of another road in
the near future. During the past SIX
weeks there has been added to Rugby's
business establishments two hardware
stores, one general store, with material
on the ground for another, furniture
store and a meat market; the lumber
yard has restocked with full line of
builders material and another lumber
yard is expected shortly. Now with
our brilliant prospects, let every citizen
Of Pierce county take hold
and try to get this valu-
able vacant land Settled; try and
induce some of your Eastern friends to
locate among us; by so doing you are
comforting favor on some overworked
relative or acquaintance. Rugby IN.
