Wahpeton is the county seat of
Richland county, North Dakota, and
considered and conceded by all to be
one of the best cities in the state.
The city has a fine electric light sys-
tenn, we'll paved streets, good sewers
and other municipal improvements.
The land in the vicinity of Wahpeton
is the far-famed Red River Valley
soil and Wahpeton is in the heart of
this valley, called "The bread basket
of the world"
During the two decades up to 1900
farming as conducted near here was
confined practically all to wheat. The
years following 1000 brought hun
dreds of farmers from the central
states to the Red River Valley and
most of the immense wheat farms
were cut into individual farms and
during the intervening years these
have been producing crops OF wheat,
oats, barley, rye, clover, alfalfa. tim
othy, potatoes, etc., and the farms
have been feeding hogs, cattle and
sheep and have been active in dairy
ing. By these methods of mixed
farming lands have already advanced
from $40 to $100 per acre and brought
in good profits for labor and capital
invested. Further division of the
large grain farms, which still remain
in the valley, makes it possible in this
vicinity to purchase 16O- to 32O-acre
tracts without buildings: some of the
best land for mixed farming at from
$40 to $50 per acre. The purchasers
and others desiring to make change
would do we'll to get into touch with
the Commercial Club at Wahpeton
or the banks for further information
regarding land in the vicinity OF Wah-
peton. Our readers will find this city
fine residential town with good
schools and churches.
The Irish standard., 1915-09-01
CIRCUIT IMPLEMENT co.

Although one seldom sees a grout
house now days, the city of Wahpe-
ton has one, though hardly in the
sense in which you might take it.
The Grout Implement Company is
another one of these prosperous inn
plement firms doing business so wide
ly throughout the Dakotas. An abun-
dant stock of the most reliable and
we'll known of heavy sellers is to be
found handled by the Grout people.
The celebrated and justly famous
John Deere farm machinery is retailed
here in one steady stream. The Avery
Ihresher find many buyers about this
time of the year; the De Laval Cream
Separator adds to it's we'll known ca
pacity and indispensable utility to
the farmer and wife, and a somewhat
more ornate and complete line of har-
ness is found here than in many a
store about the country where har-
ness is the only article in stock. This
firm has the exclusive agency for the
Overland automobile, which is per-
haps more widely advertised at the
present time than any other make
of car-huge double page spreads be-
ing used in all the national publica-
tlons, with color effects very striking.
1t was owing to the progressive spir-
it shown by the Grout folks that fin
ally brought about the Overland
agency, and needless to say, both
sides will do we'll with it.
The Irish standard., 1915-09-01
Wahpeton, North Dakota

niche IN the community as one of the
most representative and financially
stable concerns transacting business
with the public. An extensive gen.
eral banking business is done with the
people of Wahpeton and the farm
ers in the rich country adjoining.
Farm loans upon the ample security
everywhere present in this belt of the
country is the principal phase of the
business. Insurance is dealt in per-
haps more than is generally the case,
while the individual depositor finds
his friend in the Peoples State Bank
and finds his balance fatter with con-
tinued relations bringing pride in
personal, financial, and economic in
dependence. The officers and direc-
tors are people of acquaintance and
integrity and who enjoy the conf
dence of the people they associate
with. Mr.. w. D. Henry is president
of the bank; w. E. Purcell, state sem
atOr, is vice-president; Robert T. Bar
Der, cashier; Math. Braun and Mary
E. Lane, added to the above list,
constitute the board of directors.
These names are those of response
bic parties, several of whom have in
terests in other lines of mercantile
endeavor in which they have gained
prominence, such as the direction of
large milling interests, and the dispo-
sition of immense tracts Of real es-
tate. The entente cordiale extant be-
tween officials of the institution and
those who inhabit the same locality
precludes anything outside of perpet-
ually successful commercial endeav-
or. 1t is these reasons that cause
the Peoples State Bank to loom so
strong.

JAS. PURDON & co.

First in war, first in peace. Mr..
James Purdon has come pretty near
being this, for he went into the gen
eral merchandise business here in
Wahpeton in 1880, which is some
time ago, and is still today in the
same business. He was one of the
first mayors the city of Wahpeton
ever had, and also served in legis1a-
ture two terms some twenty years
ago, and also on the city council and
school board for years. He is pres
ident of the Jas. Purdon & Com
pany, and guides it's destinies just
as fairly and acutely as in years
gone Bly,. AS will naturally be sur
missed, this company is the oldest es-
tablished one in either Wahpeton or
Breckenridge. Stocked in this store
will be found one of the most thor
oughly complete lines of dry goods
in the entire state of North Dakota.
Notions, dress goods, linens, laces,
prints, lawns, figured goods, wom-
ems and children's ready to wear gar
ments, several lines of shoes of wide
range in price, everything the kitchen
can desire in the shape of groceries,
the highest grade of canned goods of
all kinds and description; fruit in sea-
son, the most famous and satisfying
of teas and coffees, and so on ad infn-
itum. The splendid prestige which
has been built up around this estab-
lishment through its long career in
the successful supplying of Wahpeton
and adjoining country trade, helps
materially to this day in the secur-
ing of business from those who are
just moving in, or the next genera
ton as it gradually slips into its place
as buyer and provider for the house

town, especially, and considerable ef-
fort is made to see that this grow
ing class gets what it wants. The
officers of the company are widely
and favorably known and this helps
to an appreciable extent in the gen
eral patronage. Mr.. Aaron Stern is
president of the company, Harry
Stern, vice-president, and Hugo Stern,
secretary and treasurer.

PEOPLES STATE BANK.

The oldest bank in Richland Coun-

this sign it is also one of the solidest
and best established state banks in
this section of the country. In 1887
this banking institution was formed
and the time since then has been one
of unprecedented growth and history
of commercial achievement, growing
steadily more prosperous day by day,

The Gratiot County Bar Association
met last week and Endorsed the candi-
dacy of Judge Kelley S. Scarf for Jus
tice of the Supreme Court to succeed
the late Justice McAlvay. A Justice
will be elected to fill vacancy in No
vember 1916. The resolutions adopt
ed are as follows:
Whereas, the members of the Graf
lot County Bar Association have in
dividually heard and read of the candi-
dacy Of Hon Kelley S. Scarf, mem
Der of this association, for nomination
at the coming election as Justice Of
the Supreme Court of Michigan, and
whereas, we as practicing members Of
the profession, have been intimately
connected with the Hon. Kelley S. Scarf
as a practicing attorney and a judge
of our circuit court for the past %
years, and are, therefore, probably,
best qualified to Judge Of his peculiar
qualifications for such important and
honorable position. therefore:
Resolved that the Gratiot County
Bar Association, in special session,
