Big. busy, bustling Minot, the

one fellow spoke of this city the
other day. 1t is indeed a Magic
City. What changes are being
wrought. Barren spots are be.
ing transformed into beautiful
homes. New business blocks are
under course of construction.
Nearly every day a new whole
sale house is being located, and
a dozen of men from the east are
in Minot today trying to secure
locations for new enterprises.
With a fair crop this year, Minot
will grow by 1000 souls in popu-
lation and all lines OF business
will be increased accordingly.
This week another grocery store
opens. Benton & Gates open in
the old Optic building. Another
gents furnishing store will open
next week. Lord & Horton are
opening this week a new con-
tracing shop for the sale OF
building material Peter Ildved-

look up the various improve
