ROAD IMPROVEMENT RECEIVES
IMPETUS FROM NEW SOURCES

Washington, July Rood i'm
provement west of the Mississippi is
to receive an impetus from sources
not heretofore realized This infor.
nation is the result of recent ex-
periences in the touring bureaus OF
the American Automobile association
at its Washington and New York
quarters.
These clearing houses of automo-
bile route data and information are
now the ports of call of automobile
tourists who register from the great
farming sections of the big middle
west. The tourists report that the
crop prosperity has not only meant
a huge volume of automobile sales
but has also brought TO realization
the desires to tour through the famed
scenic and historical sections of the
east.
These family parties, who at home
have had their touring somewhat
limited by weather conditions even
when they come from such sections
as have excellent dragged roads,
never fail to speak with no uncer-
tain praise of the quality of touring
that the eastern roads afford
To quote one only shows the view
point of the many and illustrates the
sentiment which will bring about
the hard road surface in their sec
tions.
A prominent banker from Kansas
City. during his call at the touring
N'reau headquarters, stated he had
toured across New York state;
through the Adirondacks; into Yer
mont and the White mountains; then
to Maine and along the east coast
to Boston and the shore line to New
York. From there he drove along
the coast roads of New Jersey, and
then inland to Washington.
Commenting on his trip, he said:
From the time we started east from
Buffalo until we arrived here, We
have hardly been off a hard surfaced
highway, and it is certainly a reve-
lation to know so many miles may
be Travelled with such perfect com
fort and such surety of road condl-

trip During this trip we have met
many a westerner and several friends
on tour and each is enthusiastic in
his praises: each is a convert TO the
type of road we have experienced and
all of us are going back home with
two fixed resolyes-One is to repeat
our trips next year, but more I'M
portAnt than that will be the propa

spread as to the value of the hare

land. We have the wealth, but it has
only been such experiences as ours
that will teach the value of the high

of weather both as automobilists OF

INTERIOR LUMBER co.

The main yard office of the Interior
Lumber Company is at Fargo, but
branch yards are maintained at Blabon
North Dakota, Moorhead, Dilworth
Glyndon, and Downer, Minnesota. At
Fargo yard 500 feet by 100 feet takes
care of the local and ad joining trade.
This is located at Eighth street and
Northern Pacific Avenue There is very
little left unsaid after you have run
down through the yard supply. Heavy
building lumber for joists, sills, and cor
ner posts, manufactured mill lumber
such as sashes, doors, fittings, and floor
lngs are portion of stock A fuel de-
partment is at the disposal of customers,
and both wood and coal of the various
grades may be here procured at market
price. The present firm succeeded the
Beidler & Robinson Lumber Company,
which was established in 1885 and since
1908 the business has been a continual
ton of the old one. About twenty-five
men are kept employed in the yards.
MIR. H. T. Alsop is secretary-tr y-treasurer-
manager, with Mr.. Francis Beidler,
president, the latter residing in Chicago.
Business is like the ma ajority of bust
nesses in this part of the country
growing both steadily and fast. and all
connected with same are highly salts

DIXON LAUNDRY CO.

Cleanliness is next to godl:ness And
the Dixon Laundry Company has
probably done more to promote this
condition, of affairs than any other
concern in Fargo. For fifteen years
has the work gone on. The thirty
five people who are employed to carry
on the vast amount of work to be
gotten out are comfortably distribu-
ted throughout substantial building,
42x132 in. dimensions, with basement
joining. This building was built to
suit the purpose for which it is now in
use, and in it the company has in
corporated various ideas which facili-
tate the speedy and accurate handling
of laundry. All kinds of washing,
starching, polishing, and spick and
span renovation is done here, and
the three delivery wagons are cease
less in their daily work of conveying
spotless raiment to those good NOR
tails in Fargo who appreciate the value
of cleanliness, and there are mighty
few in this city who do not. Mr.. f. B.
Leach is manager, with Messrs. Spaf-
ford and Heron as president and
vice president, respectively.

ST. JOHNS HOSPITAL, FARGO
AMERICAN BOTTLING
ASSOCIATION.

Most of us have been brought up
on the bottle. Perhaps we all would
have been had we then known of the
American Bottling Association. Of
course, natures old sweet fluid, milk,
would probably have been better for
us, but any Of the bottled goods in
soft drinks now put out by this firm
in question would go long ways
toward having the tonic effect. All
kinds of soft drinks are here manu-
factured. Absolute purity of ingre-
d1ents is the watchword up and down
the line. No better sanitary condi-
tions can exist than those found at
this plant. The plant is open to in
spection at all times Established in
1902, doing business in the right way,
the territory now is found in a radius
of 100 miles from Fargo, with an an
nual turnover of $3O,O0O In 1908 the
company was incorporated. Through
scientific arrangement of plant and
bottling machinery only ten men are
required to operate and turn out the
huge output with its fast jumping
variety of demand The business
place proper is "a by 80 feet in size,
with full and well systematized
basement. Early in the formation of
the company it was seen that track
age facilities permitting almost imme-
diate shipment were highly desirable
if not absolutely Imperative With
this in view trackage was secured so
near by and adjoining that practically
no time intervenes between the filling
of an order and it's shipment
Throughout the entire plant one can
see the evidence of thoughtful CO.
operation and highly organized eff
cheney. The company is fortunate in
its officers, who are, Geo. H. Mas,
president and general manager; Phil
w. Mas, vice-president and treasur-
er, and B. L. Kimball secretary.

LUGER FURNITURE co.

Home, Office and Hotel Furnishers.
That's the slogan under which the
Luger folks do business. And it is on
this particular line upon which they
specialize for the most part Com
mencing business in 1873, the rapidly
growing custom soon brought to pass
the addition of other lines to facili-
tate matters for the trade. The pres
ent equipment and stock embraces a
goodly stock of pianos, player pianos,
organs, Victor talking machines, Edi-
son monographs, and an embalming
parlor. 12-14 Broadway is the street
address, and the visitor will find
building of some fifty by one hundred
sixty feet, and three floors with base
ment, each departmentized and in
shape to quickly handle any order for
goods in stock room. In connection
with the embalming parlor competent
and trustworthy funeral direction is
to be secured Eighteen employees
handle the business in an efficient and
praiseworthy fashion that elicits ap-
proval from all dealing with this firm.

DAKOTA MONUMENT co.

A firm which has made noteworthy
progress in the course of the last five
years in the Dakota Monument Com
pany, Of which Mr.. H. T. Nesne is
president, O. c. Anderson, vice-presi-
dent, and NJ. C. Anderson, secretary
and treasurer This company. came
here from Crookston, where it had
been for twelve years. Since it's ar
rival it has done vast deal towards
both enhancing the appearance of our
local cemeteries, and the developing
of better and more artistic taste as
to the selection of monuments, grave
stones, head marks, and general en-
semble of what remembrance token
in stone should be- Particularly has
this been true in the work done in
carving, shaping and lettering in
granite, marble and other stones. The
machinery for this labor is the best
procurable and renders a degree of
finish which is hard to surpass.
Practically all of the best work in
this vicinity has been done by the Da-
kota firm. Twelve men are employed
at all times in the actual work and the
appertaining caretaker phases attend
ant upon same. The Dakota Monu-
ment Company bears the reputation of
being the largest company of it's kind
within the confines of North Dakota.
The home factory and office is at 1O3
Front street, the building proper be-
ing 12O by 3S in size, adequate for the
time being, but sure to be outgrown
in the near future as the result of
natural development of business.

THE MURRAY CURE
INSTITUTE.

One thousand men cured of the
liquor and drug habit! Surely, this
is record to be proud of. Since the
year 1905 has the Murray Cure Insti-
tute of Fargo been busily at work
rescuing the hapless mortal who has
fallen into the dread clutch of the
opium habit or the more common one
of liquor. This institution is officially
endorsed under the Minnesota Inc
briate Law and assures sure, safe,
and permanent cure. The edifce at
321 Thirteenth Street South is one of
home-like pretensions and everything
is done to make the staying period
one of congenial and pleasant dura-
ton. 1t is a matter of medical record
that patients who have taken a full
course of the Murray Cure leave the
institute averaging about ten pounds
greater in weight than when they
entered. The treatment consists of
the administration of a vegetable anti
dote, tonic treatment, and strengthen
ing of mental practice. A house
physician is always in attendance and
is licensed medical practitioner un-
der the laws of the state in which the
institute is located Making a spe-
cialty of cases of this kind, both the
physicians and the attendants become
very expert in diagnosis and treat
ment of these cases. The officers of
the institute expressly wish it un-
derstood that the treatment is in no
sense withdrawal process.

CHANEY-EVERHART co.

The Chaney-Everhart Company is
successor to the Pioneer Candy Co.,
and makes its own candy, manufac-
turing various confections for whole
sale delivery, and specializing on
high-grade chocolates. No candy
goes forth from this factory without
its being able to bear up truthful1y
under the title of Pure Food Candy.
Approximately fifty men are en-
ployed in the manufacture and sale of
the different toothsome delicacies,
and the territory embraced by ship
ment comprises the state of North
Dakota at large, and a good section
of Minnesota A certain amount of
business is transacted by parcel post,
though this method is not employed
unless SO specified. Every lump of
delicious pure food candy bears with
1t the guarantee that it personally
complies with all pure food laws and
is wholesome besides. Retail mer-
chants might do we'll to connect up
with this house, providing they have
not already done SO. The business
was established in 1907, and the only
hard part of the business to keep up
is the cand dy-it's eaten so fast.

For the fourth consecutive year this

pany. Established in 1907, it has since
that time operated continuously in Min

office employees very busy as you would
think were you to drop into the Pioneer

of work pervading it. The growth of
the Pioneer can be readily grasped when
one is told that i'll the year 1908 only
