he general Offices of the {. A.
Finch Lumber Company are in La
Moure, and although this company is
we'll and favorably known over a con-
siderable section of territory, it is
perhaps best known in this city where
the headquarters are maintained. The
Finch people have been dealing in
lumber here in La Moure for some
twenty-four years, while their line of
retail yards has been the product of
consistent growth and spreading out
in accordance with business policy A
general line of lumber is always yard
ed up awaiting orders. An especially
complete line of building material,
such as heavy timbering, siding,
planking, and the usual bulk of man

sashes, doors, screens, Trainings, and
the like. A fuel yard is incorporated
with the lumber business, and all
varieties of coal and burning wood
are to be had This firm has at all
times shown friendly feeling for Our
people and we bespeak your trade
consideration for them. c. A. Finch

Hutchinson and Ira Hutchinson Mr..
{. |. Hutchinson has been a resident
of La MOure county for over thirty
years. He has been mayor of La
Mourc and register of deeds of Lane
county. The extensive acquaintance
and the fact that it is one of such
long standing has helped considerably
in the establishment of the business
and it's promotion since the first year.
Needless to say, both the Hutchn-
sons bear excellent records for
straightforward dealing and the sale
of goods strictly as they are pur-
ported to be. These qualities togeth-
er with progressive business methods
which come naturally to these people,
have made the firm successful and re-
spected at the same time. When
you are in the market for anything in
the form of hardware products or the
accessory lines as mentioned above,
it would be we'll to give this company

The city of La Moure is situated in
the fertile James River valley, and is
the county seat of La Moure county,
as we'll as its largest city.
The population of the city is about
twelve hundred, and it is a very busy
and progressive town in every par
ticular This city has one of the most
complete water works systems in the
state. A 100000 court house is one
of the splendid buildings that marks
it's spirit of progress. The transport
tation facilities are of the best, two
lines of railroad running through the
city, one from the north and one from
the east, each with daily passenger
service. Artesian we'll water is found
here and in all parts of the county.
Intensified farming is practiced to a
great extent by the farmers in this
vicinity with the very best results,
and the hills in the country adjacent
to La Moure are dotted with the best
grades of stock of all kinds. In fact,
it would be hard to find more pros
porous community anywhere in the
Dakotas than this little city, or county
either. Good schools, fine churches,
homes that are real homes, a fine
electric light plant, and a sewer sys-
tenn make it desirable place to live
in. In connection with the local high
school, it has one of the five state
agricultural high schools giving COM
plete courses in agriculture, and do
mestic science. Write the CONNER
