THE CITY GROCERY AND
BAKERY.

Established in 1904 the City Gro
Gerry & Bakery has for eleven years
supplied the city of Mandan with
high class quality of production in
groceries and cooking much more
complete than is usually found in
city of the size of Mandan. All of
the best grade of both staple and
fancy grocery specials are kept fresh
IN stock and a consequently we'll de-
veloped demand is waxing greater
each month. The bakery is large
and commodious, and takes in prac-
tically all that could be hoped for in
even the huge Twin City bakeries.
For long time it has been the popu-
lar vogue to have ones wedding cake
made at this place, and as it stands
at present the only thing that cur
tails the supply of this article is the
paucity of marriageable young folks.
That is, comparatively speaking.
This company is incorporated for
$4,000 worth of capital stock, and
has for it's officers: G.. w. Brown,
president; A. H. Peterson, vice presi-
dent, and Lewis F. Lyman, secretary
and treasurer.

banking business. And the business

Mandan, North Dakota
By Secretary Commercial Club.

BY Secretary Commercial Club.
Mandan, the county seat of Morton
County, North Dakota, is a city of
5000 inhabitants, situated on the
west bank of the Missouri river
Mandan is a leading railroad CEN
ter; the eastern terminus of the Yel-
lowstone division of the Northern Pa
cifc Railway Company, the terminus
of the Mandan-Mott and of the Man
dan-Kildeer lines, the former 1877
miles long and the latter III miles.
Mandan has been designated as head
quarters for new division. 1t also
has the Northern Pacific shops and
railroad payroll of $6O,OOO.OO a
month.
Mandan has a $1OO,OOOOO water
works system, has fine sewer sys-
tenn and has ten blocks of bithulithic
paving.
Mandan has three banks whose
combined deposits amount to over
$2,OOO,OOOOO.
Mandan holds an eight-day Chau-
tauqua each year, 1915 being its
fourth year. Chautauqua Park is
natural park of ten acres.
The United States Government has
spent $1OO,OOOO0 at Mandan estab-
fishing the Northern Great Plains
Field Station. This station comprises
numerous buildings and contains l, ,275
acres. The purpose of this station
is to carry on experimental work
with small grains to test soil condl-
tons, the development of trees and
fruits suited to this section, and ex-
periments with dairy cattle to find
out what sort of feeding and grazing
will obtain the best results.
The United States Government is
also spending $50,0O0.00 on the new
postof6ce now in process of construc-
ton and to be completed by fall.
Mandan has an excellent school
system including a high school of the
first grade; five churches, Catholic,
Lutheran, Episcopal, Methodist and
Presbyterian; three parks, beautiful
homes, everything that a desirable
place to live should have
Mandan has a $50,0O0O0 creamery
running night and day.
Morton County is the richest dairy
county in the state.
Two hundred seventy-fve carloads
of hogs were shipped out of Mandan
in 1914.
The clay and Ignite coal deposits
surpass those of any other county.
Mandan offers openings for whole
sale and distributing houses and
manufacturing plants.
Morton County provides the best
place in the United States for the
tenant farmer to become a home own
er and this is the opinion of men
who have devoted years to study
of the development of this section
and who have frst-hand knowledge
of agricultural and banking condi-
tions. If tenants can buy Iowa or
Illinois land at the high price it
brings, it can plainly be seen how
much easier the same man can be-
come a home owner in Morton
County. Of course, it depends on
the man and on the place he occu-
pies, but that is no more true in
Morton County than anywhere else.
He must have some money but with
a sum that would seem pitifully
small in Iowa or Illinois, he can
make a payment on Morton County
land, become the owner and give a
mortgage for the balance. This is
being done every day.

Old Church
Demolished


Carpenters under the supervision
of John Wick have almost completed
the work of demolishing the old Bap-
tist church building on Church street.
Mr.. Wick is using some of the lum-
ber in building an addition on his
Main street residence. He may build
on the church site at some time in
the near future. This corner is a
slightly location for a residence. The
old church proved to be a solidly put
together building and contained a
considerable amount of good lumber.
Since the evacuation Of the Baptists
upon the completion of their beauti-
full edifice on Hargadine street the
church became a playground for the
youth of the vicinity and was minus
any semblance of whole window in
a short time. The building was
erected about thirty years ago, Bald
win Beach being the supervising
architect and contractor. He was
much interested in the manner in
which the building had stood the raw
ages of time.

in the county, including bearing pear

If you delay getting your gifts till

YOUR master-and a very cruel, dis

REPRESENTATION is THE THIEF
OF TIME" said Edward Young, who
was born in 1854 and died in 1855, but
whose fame would never die If he had
written those six words and nothing
more And of all times that are par

is one of the most telling. If you've
planned to give some relative or friend
some particular thing and put it off till

thing you want and if you have to take
what you can get-you rob your friend
and yourself of real Christmas joy.
