The SATURDAY. OF.

A prominent wholesaler of Fargo
was asked by the editor of the trav-
eler's page to say something about the
prevailing practice among the com
mercial travellers to come in on Sat-
urday at the end of each week TO
spend Sunday in the city. This
wholesaler in speaking of the mat :
said:
Many of the boys get in on Friday
night. To do this they must. in most
cases. lose at least half of Friday,
and, as it took them half day to get
to their territory the first Of the week,
they only put in four days of actual
work. Others come in Saturday mo. n
ing, thus making only four AMI one.
half days of work. Some come in
Saturday night, quitting off actual
work at noon, which leaves only five
of the six days paid for which Lave
been put in for their house. The boys
in the store go to work early Monday
morning and work till Saturday after
noon."
Just what one might say IN the
above subject without getting inLo
more trouble than a little cannot be
are any who would like to air theil
views on the subject they are at lib
erty to do SO. The salesman has 8
side to the question which he might
wish to present; the boss has a side
likewise, and may want to speak ou-
in meeting. Here's the chance.

what one is able to save or to squeeze
out of it, but by what it is possible to

THE sHosHoNE LAND OPENING.

On June % just past the United
States government opened to home
stead entry a choice tract OF land in
the famous Big Horn basin of Wyom-
Inc under what IL known a. the ShO-
shone irrigation project Two units
or sections OF this project have al
ready been settled, and water Is now
ready to be delivered to the third. The
section just opened, which includes
some Of the most desirable land of the
entire project, is located near the town
at Ralston, and none OF the farms il
more than a mile from the railroad
Several hundred families have already
located on the project, and those who
are successful fri getting q farm will
have all the advantages OF q well
settled region-schdols, churches, pro-
gressive stores, banks, etc, and good
markets and railway facilities. The
dam which stores water for the project
Is the highest in the world, complete
ly blocking the course of the Shoshone
river, and provides an ample water
supply for all needs. While the price
(cost Of the water right Of this land
was not stated in the notice which
was generally published, it - quite
likely in the neighborhood Of $40 per
acre. payable in ten annual equal pay
ments without interest. These condi-
tons put the lands in the Shoshone
project within reach of any man Of
moderate means and determination
who wants to get home Of his own
on the land The small amount he
would have to pay annually or The
investment, four Oh five dollars per
acre, would be but fair rent for the
use OF the land, and he could make
these annual payments and more in
growing small grain, alfalfa and other
crops suited to the climatic conditions
prevailing. Full information about
this project and the exact terms on
which the land may be secured may
