1t may not be generally known, but
lumber is selling for about six dollars
thousand cheaper right in Minot
than in many of the surrounding
towns. The competition is very keen
here and the lumbermen are in no
combine, as many suppose. Consid-
ering this difference, it would pay one
to come many miles to Minot for
