SPOKANE BAND IS
SECURED BY FAIR
BOWEN'S BAND WILL PLAY
HERE DURING FESTIVITIES
VIII Assist at Round-up Also With
Local Cowboy Band and Weston
Ladies' Band-AnnOuncement Means
Good Music.

Bowen's band of Spokane will fur
nish the music for the district fair
and assist at the Roundup this year,
and this announcement means that
good music is assured. A telegram
was received yesterday by the fair
management stating that the Spo-
kane organization had accepted the
offer made to it and would bring
twenty-five pieces here for the week
commencing Sept. IL.
The securing of Bowens band is
the result of negotiations extending
over several weeks. The choice has
for some time rested between that
band and the Ruzzi band of Portland,
strong recommendation for both hav-
ing been received. However, the
Spokane organization, not having
/ been unionized, made an offer to play
at a price which meant a saving of
several hundred dollars and this was
the deciding factor in the end.
An agreement has been entered in
to by the fair and Roundup associ-
ations by which the latter will secure
the services of the fair band during
the three afternoons of the wild west
show. However, because Of the great
size of the arena. one band will be
insufficient and both the local Cow
boy Roundup band and the Cowgirl
band Of Weston have been engaged
to play
Local Band PTacticing.
In preparation for the event, the
local band boys have begun to prac-
/ tice systematically. The gymnasium
association of the Commercial club
/ has rendered them the use Of the hall
and practices will be held there each
week. In addition it is the intention
to give street concerts during the
summer once a week also. Negoti-
auons are now pending for the Sc
curing Of a competent director so
/ that the local band, which is now
delivering a very meritorious article
OF music, will by the time of the
Roundup, be splendid organiza-
! ton.

WEAGENT HAS MODEL
UNDERTAKING PARLORS
Minot Man Said to Have the Finest
Quarters in the State-Appoint-
ments Are Simply Perfect.

Charles j. Weagent, Minots under
taker and funeral director, who NOV
ed back into his old location in the
Robbins building last week, where
his stock and fixtures were burned
recently, is said to have the very
finest undertaking parlors in the
state. An Independent representa-
tive was shown thru the place and
the appointments are perfect.
The office is decorated with brown
paneled Durlap, with weathered oak
trimmings. New office fixtures, the
best that money could buy, set the
place Off TO excellent advantage. .
TIE chapel and display room l.
white enameled trimmed in gilt.
The reception room is. very tasty,
the walls being covered with paneled
paper. Rich looking rugs and easy
chairs make this the contest of recep-
ton rooms.
The morgue is white vnameled,
equipped with hot and cold water,
electric ventilator, and is sanitary in
every respect. Instrument and fluid
cabinets have been built into the
wall
The equipment is complete. There
is not anything that an undertaken
could possible use that he has not got.
The stock of caskets is the finest
in western North Dakota. One of
them, made Of mahogany, is worth
$500 alone.
He keeps stock of fresh flowers
in his flower refrigerator continually.
Mr.. Weagent's Office assistant is
Miss Lillian Ruud.
Minot appreciates a place such as
Mr.. Weagent has. 1t is first class
advertisement for our metropolitan
city.

MRS. cHAs. Weber IS DEAD.
Wife Of Former Minot Business Man
Passes Away in Minneapolis After
illness from Tubercuiosis-6ody
Inferred at kenmare.

Mrs. Charles Weber, wife OF a
former Minot hardware dealer, pass
ed away at the city hospital in Mime
apolis Saturday afternoon at o'clock,
after long illness from tuberculosis.
Mr.. Weber passed thru Minot Tues
day, enroute to kenmare with the re-
mains. where interment took place
Thursday.
Mrs. Weber showed signs Of i'll
ness shortly after the house burned
on the Weber farm near Kenmare
last May. Her husband took her to
Minneapolis last fall for treatment
and she bore up we'll, until two weeks
before death, when she became bed
fast. She followed the teachings of
the Christian Scientists to the very
last and held out hopes right along
for her recovery She passed away
very peacefully.
Mary Nelson was born at Litchfeld
Mimi, 33 years ago. moving with her
parents to Wilmar, MINI. She was
united in marriage to Mr.. Weber IL
Minot ten years ago and to this union
six children were born, four boys and
two girls. One sister resides at

PLANTATION with pleasure. Moreover.
we are delighted to learn that he has
no knocks up his sleeve for Western
Canada. He will probably oe more
careful in future when an American
newspaper man hands him a fat cigar
and then proceeds to work the inter
viewing act The above letter speaks
for itself and if Colcord, the Mnot
scribe to whom Mr.. Humphreys refers
managed to turn those few innocent
remarks into the damaging Indictment
which appeared in the Minot indie
pendent, why then, when it comes to
misrepresenting a well-meaning
gentleman, he is in a class by himself.
Just try to grasp the breadth of his
imagination. He talked to Mr..
Humphreys who never uttered q word
against Western Canada Colcord
retires to his sanctum and turns his
imagination loose. Result, He finds
flaws in our timber permits, in our
closed leases, in our government pat
ronage, in our tax system, in our
schools and the way they are run, in
our game laws, in fact he finds that
all these things are rotten He even
imagines that our mounted policemen
eat game shot out Of season. Perish
the thought. This brilliant imaginer
can even see that the country is dried
out between Swift Current and Maple
Creek, and his powers do not stop
there; he imagines that hundreds of
settlers are leaving the Happyland dis
trict. But to crown it all, the Minot
man can even tell there is no water
under the prairie sod in this district,
and In his dreams he beholds the poor
settler hauling water twenty miles.
Verify, Mr.. Humphreys, If you should
see this Minot newspaper again, avoid
him as you would poisonous reptile
lest he make you say that western
Canada is desert, and does So, only
to find himself grave. Ed.

theme Of Conservation,
don't let US forget that this
subject has a personal appli-
cation, upon which, after all,
depends the material sue
cess of every individual
The farmer who pl0ws his
field and waits to harrow it
until moisture has evapor-
ated which would equal sew
eral inches of priceless rain
fall has saved neither time
nor effort by his delay, but
has lost a goodly share of his
seasons reward, which he
might easily have conserved
To attempt to carry on a
business, either agricultural,
mercantile or manufacture
ing, without focusing upon
ones efforts the light of the
experience of others who
have made good in similar
work, is to condemn ones
self to one of unrequited
toll.
Conservation means much
to all of us. 1t means doing
better with our time, and
crowding more energy into
our activities. The taking
upour task with intelligence
and zest and laying it down
we'll done.
1t means laying aside just lit
tie of the fruits of each day S toll,
that a future day may not be rob-
bed oflts rightful share. 1t means
constant effort to excel, aided by
whatever outside agencies are
available.
Conservation means saving
mile, a dime or a minute when
ever one can.
It means making five stalks of
grain grow whore two grew be-
