TICKET SALES HEAVY

The ticket sales at the local North
ern Pacific station for December have
reached the total of $1,000 This is
about $1,000 greater than the sale for
the same period of 1910 and marks
about the best record for December
since the agency has been estab'
lished. This is another index of the
times and shows percentage OF
money spent in travel over other
years. Indeed the small amount of
the addition fare does not cut a very
large figure beside the other costs IN
travel as the price of ticket is
only about IS per cent of the cost of
any average trip.

II have just finished closing up my
books for the past year and conlpar-
ing them with last year. I find /
have enjoyed a better business by
20 per cent than that of last year
despite the cry of unfavorable times
and close money" said local bust
ness man.
MANY of the travelling men who
come to Bismarck have often re.
marked that throughout the territory
where they travel. the increase in
dairy and live stock interests have
multiplied and that there is a conse-
quent gain in business all along the
line"
Such remarks as the one above,
have been made during the last few
weeks and they show healthy con-
dition of affairs. Few business men
who have hand Jed staple articles
have complained of a falling of in
business. Merch ants. wholesale and
RETAIL report steady trade and that
is much better than fluctuating
rushing trade in one commodity now,
and then when that Is over sold
rushing to another.
One supervisor of series of
wholesale institutions has instructed
his sales managers to look after the
ordering of goods for the merchant
with an eye not to overstock. but to
sell more and varied lines in smaller
quantities. This has had beneficial
effect upon the general buying public
and fewer bad accounts are the re-
suit.
Formerly many of the merchants
were in the habit Of buying heavily
on a rushing market and then when
the periodical rush was over and no
demand made for that line, have a
large unsaleable stock on his hands
which would have to be moved at a
great sacrifice. These rush buyers
and rush sales firms have found by
years of experience in trying to work
off the out-of-season goods. that 1t
does not pay, and often times leads
10 a direct financial loss.
; Under the new system of buying
reasonable quantity at a time and
placing signed orders with the mer-
chants for additional filling makes
better conditions and leaves more OF
the capital loose to be used in work

over SO per cent of the creameries in
the state. And more are being es-
tablished.
Other minor conditions that point
to permanent prosperity are those
in the establishment of better rural
schools, high schools, industrial de-
partments in schools, already estab-
lished, new municipal and corpora
ton owned lighting and waterworks
systems in many towns. Libraries
being opened in a few places and
reading rooms for many other places.
Rest rooms for the people who come
to the towns.
Several government buildings to
be erected point toward the perma-
nent prosperity Of the state. The lig-
mite coal industry has reached a
point that ten years ago would have
been thought almost impossible. Yet
the tonnage is nearing the 600 900
ton mark this year with good pros.
poets of considerably greater ton
mage next year, New mines are be-
ing opened up. Older ones are be-
ing scientifically developed. The
bricquetting processes by the school
of mines has reached such a state
that the commercial utilization of the
slack of the Ignite mines will find
ready market as fuel in the entire
state. Several others have perfected
machines for the solidifying or bind
ing the slack into small compact
pieces or bricks which will make the
fuel as good and give as many heat
units as the best anthracite coal on
The market today.
The brick and pottery industries
are in their childhood. They will be
developed as rapidly as the capital
can be secured to properly develop
them.
The days of the horse are numb
cred SO far as the large farms are
concerned and the oil pull and gas
tractor has in many cases superced-
ed them. This revolution Of motive
power has saved much to the people
# the state and when fully devel-
oped will be a tremendous factor in
the future life Of this country.
The automobile is used in the rur.
al as we'll as in the city districts and
Uncle Sam has large number of
rural routes on which autos deliver
the mail to the waiting patrons The
auto has been found as useful and
much more rapid than the horse and
consequently its sphere of influence
is rapidly widening.
Extension of telephones and re.
auctions in rates on the telegraph
lines had tendency to produce bet
ter communications in all parts of
the state and especially from Bis.
marck. New lines and many more
patrons are to be added as soon as
the weather will permit.
Taken all in all the condition of
North Dakota at the close Of the year
1911 has been. with a few cases ex-
copied, one of steady progress. The
coming year offers many advantages
to the homeseeker, the farmer, the
laborer. the contractor and nearly
every other line that can be mag
ined In fact the dawning of the yea
5 shedding its roseate hues over the
entire state and the people are pre-
pairing to keep the sun of prosperity
and progress shining until Father
Time rings down the curtain for an
other year.

CLOSING BOOKS
FOR THE YEAR

Nearly all the firms when they
closed their books for the end Of last
year have found substantial gain
over 1910 Several of the business
men who have business extending in
all parts of the county Or are depend
ent upon general conditions in all
parts of tine county, report better
business average than for the pre-
vious year. Everyone is optimistic.
ALI are looking to the coming year as
year of good steady improvement
along all lines and a staple line bust
ness. Very few are looking to the
little spurts Of business or sidelines
for their profits, but are plowing
straight ahead with the lines that are
required for the maintenance of bust
ness.
There is a decided upward trend
to the line of business progress here
in this banner county Of the slope and
it will extend its Influence to outside
counties until the whole slope is af-
fected. Enforced collections are few.
Foreclosures are few. Really hard up
people are hard to be- found. Some
are short of money but they have fal.
len into dependence upon the dairy
and each each month they have some
money to pay with. In the city the
monthly payroll Of the Northern Pa
cific is also a great factor in main
tanning the good conditions that exist
here.
And now that the new year is here,
each and every business man is
buckling his belt one notch more and
preparing for the biggest year-the
best year-in the history of the city
of Mandan and the county of Morton.
