To the Man Who
Runs the Store

Are the goods on your shelves
advertised by the manufacturers
who induced you to stock up
with them?
If you were called upon to
advertise these goods, and to let
people know that you sold them.
what medium would you en-
ploy?
Without hesitation, we can
answer this question for you:
THE GATE CITY, of course.
You know, Mr.. Dealer, that
the one way to create an actual
demand that means sales over
your counter is through the
medium of the dairy press.
When manufacturers, therefore,
want to advertise their goods,
tell them that the way to help
you move these goods from
your shelves is to use The
Gate City.
And be sure to cooperate
with the manufacturer who
spends money to bring custom
ers to your store.

Jamestown, N D., Dec. "a case
was recently decided in the district court
of this district Of interest to farmers who
take out hail Insurance policies on grow
ing crops. James Good of I4aMoure coun-.
ty brought suit against the state Of
North Dakota, claiming refund from
the state on hail insurance loss in the
sum of $3.50 Notice Of alleged loss, ac-
to the state hail insurance department.
and the department had notified two, OF
the five county commissioners, but they
had not at any time inspected the prop
erty or appraised the damage. and when
the matter came before the state audit
ing board the claim was disalloWed. This
was some time after the money paid
into the fund had been distributed, leay-
Mr. Good claims that the state was gen
orally liable to him, because of a failure
to appraise and allow his claim for loss.
The court held that the claim Of the
plaintiff arising under the state hail M
surance law is against the insurance
fund created by the law, and is not a
general claim against the state.
Atty. M G.. Lasell appeared for the
plaintiff, and c. L. Young for the state.

end of that time the sheriff reported
that Smith could not be found in the
