STRANDER ABSTRACT &
INVESTMENT co.

Mr.. C. C. Strander, is president of
this company, while Chas. Loring, is
vice president, and O. w. Peterson,
secretary. The offices are at liz N.
Broadway, where practically all
business is transacted This is one of
the best known and reliable abstract
companies in point of service and
length of efficient work to be found
throughout this portion of the pros
porous Northwest. Despite the fact
that all abstract matters are handled,
the company has an unusually con-
crete and stable reputation for busi-
ness methods. In addition to making
TIP abstracts, a general loan and trad
ing business is conducted. with a deal
of the work coming from investments
in farm mortgages in the rich section
of the country round about Crook
ston. These farm loans are the safest
and surest things in the world for
funds to loan, and the wonder is that
so many people put their money into
wildcat enterprises when there is an
abundance of good real estate mort
gage loans to be had. The Strander
Abstract & Investment Company was
established in 1886, and incorporated
in 1907, with a capital of $4,000. Abb
solutely the most accurate and COM
plete records in the entire state, with
all that pertains to Polk County in its
entirety, is available at immediate
notice, with minimum time in furnish
ing.

ROBERT H. CRAM.

Some people cram with one thing,
other people with something else, but
here is one crammed with experience
in the particular line in which he
is now engaged. Mr.. Robert H.
Cram, proprietor of Bob's Grocery,
was primarily a native of Ontario,
Canada. coming to Crookston in the
year 1886. Here he worked two years
for w. E. Slocum, five years for

save money by dealing with these
people. And when the winter comes
in with a rush of sleet and icy blast,
your coal and wood will be furnished
by this firm. Then there are shin
giles lime, Atlas Cement, and all the
various accessory articles nowadays
found in the we'll kept and complete
ly appointed lumber yard. A small
feed business is operated in this con-
nection and is doing business of
gradually increasing nature. There
is no gainsaying the fact that if you
call at 81 North Broadway, you will
find all that you could reasonably ex-
pect in the way of lumber at extreme
ly moderate price. One has but to
call to be convinced. Remember the

Then he went away and came back
thirteen years afterward and opened

for experience, as we'll as being like
