Lemert, the City With Out, is only
an elevator. But when you come to
summing up the capacity Of this in.
dividual elevator, you will, have some
insight to the part that this individual
little city plays in the grain markets.
There are any number of elevator
companies that would like to have the
same amount Of bought grain in their
bins. The sOsborne.McMillan Elevator
company would have q hard time re.
placing the gentleman that presides
over their interests at this point. Mr..
+. w. Wheeler, manager, Is one Of
those fellows that have the faculty
for observing the things that the az
erage man forgets to think about. and
thereby loss to their company as we'll
as to themselves. ] 10
as,ss Told About the Soil TN.
Mr.. Wheeler did not forget to tell
us about the kind OF soil they had
to raise the large crops that this con-
munity has always had. When we
stop to consider the large amount Of
grain that came into this house for
the season Of 1912 we can come to
some conclusion as to what the land
and surrounding country are like
The amount bought was close to the
100000 bushelimark, and we we'll know
that this grain had to be raised close
to this place. The land as a rule
runs about twelve to tw%enty-four
inches Of black loan, the kin"l that
always has the record for crops grown
on il. The largest amount Of grain
bought was of the No. ! hard and
macaroni. In connection with the
elevator business Mr.. Wheeler handles
coal and flour. This is Mr.. Wheeler's
eighth year at this point and he says
that he thinks it the only place to
be as he can only start something by
himself.
/. tiace. For a General Store.
This location could use a general
store to- advantage. When one or
siders the amount of grain bought
here and then the number of people
who come to this place to dispose OF
their product, he car readily see this
could be made n Of the finest lOca-
tlons for the above. mentioned estahl-
Jfshinent in the state, and q mighty
profitable one to the party that would
take hold OF 1t. Every facility for tho
building up OF a large trade, of the
kind that pays, one that in time would
surpass some Of the large establish
ments, in some Of Dur large towns. -
at hand. MI. Merchant. If you are
not making good where you are, take
the time and look this proposition
oyer and locate where you have the
chance to build, the kind Of trade that
pays. 4 i
4 Eats Three Jimes a Day. q
The farmer is the man who eats
three times q. day and not Of the nick
nacks. but the kind Of food that makes
the merchants yearly sales look like
there had been something doing. And
this community is made up of that
kind OF, people. not the kind that has
to say, well, Mr.. Merchant, T had !
poor crop, I can't pay you all this
time. You will have to wait 0 n me
No.. Mr.. Merchant there Is not that
to contend with here, as the poor crop
year has never hit this section.
Located ,.West. Of Darlington.
Lemert is located just west OF Car.
ington on the main line Of the 500
railroad, and has the good service &C.
corded the towns that are located
along their lines, having local freight
service both. ways every day and the
best of passenger accommodations,
and in fact. every convenience that
would 70 to make Lemert one OF the
hest trading points In the state. It
has a bright future.
Opportunity For Some One.
THE, early bird" and SO on. You
all know the rest. but opportunity
knocks but once. and this is an oppor-
tunity, that ought to make some live
merchant sit up and take notice. We
are giving you fair warning. Some
one is looking for tust. this, spot, and
We think that we will sell a Bismarck
Tribune to the locator, too. In fact,
We know we will. and get a big
thank you besides. Watch the Trih-
une columns for the location Of these
places for new enterprises. as the
Overlanders are making every town
in the state, by horseback. as in the
DAYS Of old. and are seeing the ad-
yantages that are going to master and
deriving the community Of what they
should have. The wasted hours Of
travel to distant places could be spent
to better advantage upon their land.
