PATRON|zE YOUR
HOME NURSERY


Do all the farmers and othe 8 in this
part Of the state realize that we have
a nursery right here near Devils Lake
that surpasses in size and quality Of
stock almost any nursery in the whole
Northwest, and all home grown stock
is certainly better than sending east
for it. The Devils Lake Nursery is
an institution that this county and
state should be proud Of. It has taken
years of honest effort and toll to get
it in its present condition and to one
who has never been through it we
would say that it is well worth the
time and effort to inspect this nursery
some time during the summer months,
and you will find things that will sur.
prise you. This country needs more
trees and shrubs, and every farmer Of
the Lake Region will find 1t to their
interest to deal with a local conce1n
who will see that a square deal is Civ.
en- them, and stock acclimated sold to
them at prices much below those charg
ed by the average tree agent. This is
no ad but simply a boost fer a home
institution that is deserving Of the
support Of every citizen in this part
Of the state.

While Mr.. Burdick is undoubtedly
q popular candidate and has a strong

those who have read the signs cor
rectly in North Dakota politics e.
years that Governor Hanna has tha
great bulk of the farming vote wiz
Him and that by reason Of his al

holds a large percentage of the vot

cities. ~.
Ills un+iring work ana readiness l.
all any engagement where his presen"-

IS HELD VALID

The fee Of Attorney George A.

wasting board in the case where the
citizens of Ignite contested the cleo
ton by which Bowbells was made the
county scat, was held valid in the de-
cision which was just handed down
by Judge C. W. Buttz of Devils Lake.
Upon petitions of a number of citi-
gems, States Attorney II. A. Hanson.
Of that county brought an action
against the Burke county board of
commissioners to restrain them from
paying any more money to Mr.. Bangs
and to recover what had been paid.
The case was peculiar as the county
was paying for the counsel of both the
defense and the prosecution. 1t is

pealed.

is what might be termed d new bust
ness institution for this city. E. w.
Gilbert>on, is at the head of this COM
p.ny and it is the intention to DO a
tombstone and monument business over
the northwestern part of the state.
This concern now has a large stock
Of tombstoncs and monuments and men
in charge to handle the work. There
is no reason why a big business can
not be built up here as these goods are
shipped in in carload lots directly from
the quarries in New Hampshire and
Vermont, and by this method much
freight Ia be saved, and therefore
the company is in a position to sell
cheaper than concerns farther east car
sell them and ship in by local freight.
