brick. Isl Is one OF the real pioneers
Of North Dakota. He came out here
90 years ago and settled on q farm
up nea Coleharbor. About l6 years
ago he moved down to Bismarck
where he started q grocery store. His
frs, store he sod out to George Gus
sne-. but later resumed his grocery
business. 81 knew how TO make saus-
age, good sausage at that. They tell
me he is going to Minneapolis to start
a 5000 sausage factory. / certainly
wish him the best oi success. Ever
eat any OF 81 Rohrer's country saus-

You've got some city here" said
Iohn o. Hanchett, the prominent at

Bismarck gives visitors the best i'm
preston of any city in the state. 1t is
very evident that there has been a
large amount OF building here during
the summer, and the number of splen-
did new business blocks that are be-
ing built even al this time OF the fall
is evidence of Bismarck's growth and
prosperity. A city with so many great
natural advantages, such as Bismarck
Possesses, a fine site, natural drain
age, an abundance of pure water, and
other resources, cannot help but
grow, and grow rapidly. Bismarck's
location OF the very threshold of the
Missouri Slope gives it tine key to
the situation. Wells county ] main-
tain is one of the banner counties OF
North Dakota. We realize in Wells
county that the Missouri Slope is one
of the richest agricultural and min
eral districts in the entire world. The
splendid railroad facilities, its loca-
ton OF the greatest navigable river
In the world and the construction of
hundreds OF miles OF new railway that
will feed it assure us that Bismarck
will continue to thrive. l believe it
is only a question OF time before
rimarck becomes the largest city in
the state
You bet l am glad there will be a
basket ball team in Bismarck this
year. said AL j. Karst, prune peddlar
