Enderln is a thriving young city of
1000 population, situated in the heart
of the wheat growing country of
North Dakota; in the midst of the
rolling prairies bordering on the Red
River Valley:
The farmers are we'll to do and most
of them have large barns and gran
aries and comfortable residences,
many of them with all modern con-
veniences, the houses equipped with
bath, electric lights and sewers.
The principal staples in farming are
small grains, but nearly every farmer
now has herd of cattle and hogs, and
every year witnesses more diversity
ing. Farmers are beginning to raise
corn and alfalfa, most farmers having
fields of corn ranging from thirty-hvee
to seventy-fve acres, and the yield
averages forty bushels. Enderlln is a
city of homes having nearly eight
miles of cement sidewalks, we'll shaded
with trees, a first class high school
and public schools and fine churches.
1t is freight and passenger division
of the NJ, St. P. & St. Ste. NJ. Ry.,
and the headquarters of the division
superintendent and master mechanic.
There is a thirty stall roundhouse
and large repair and machine shops
employing about two hundred men.

at this point approximates $3O,OOO.

HERMAN SHIRLEY.

For many years the excellent drug
store of Mr.. Herman Shirley has been
a much appreciated source of supply
to the people of Enderlin and the sur-
rounding country. 1t serves not only
as a public accommodation, but also
as health preserver and ready
panacea for the many ills and aches
with which all humanity is at times
afflicted.
This establishment has been serving
the people for the past eighteen years,
and serving them we'll. The prescrlp-
ton counter is always looked after by
the most skilled of the profession, and
this part of the establishment has the
entire confidence of the medical pro-
fession, as we'll as the people, as re-
liability is the watchword in this de-
partment. The store proper carries
general line of drugs, sundries, toilet
articles, rubber goods, stationery, cut
glass, wall paper, brushes, Ansco
Kodaks, and kodak supplies of all de-
scriptions.

MADDEN STORE
BROKE RECORD
LAST SATURDAY
MORE THAN $1,000 PASSED OVER
THE COUNTER IN ONE DAY. SIX
TY SALES PEOPLE WERE KEPT
BUSY.

What is without doubt the greatest
sale of merchandise ever conducted
in the city was the sale at Madden &
Company's last Saturday when the
money which passed over the counters
in exchange for merchandise was ST.,
16S. A deposit was made in the Ard
more National Bank at one time OF
Sc 900. The assistant cashier of the
bank accompanied by two policemen
went to the store for the money to
convey it to the bank.
Madden & Company's store was bad
ly wrecked in the explosion, and the
merchandise has been moved to the
Reed building on west Main street,
while the old store is being rebuilt.
The Reed store is large and roomy,
the company has plenty of space to
display merchandise to a good advant-
age and there must have been some
very attractive values offered in the

as much, at least. The company had
sixty sales people but they were un-
able to take care of all who came. Man
ager George NJ. Henley estimates that
the sales would have been as much as
$4,000 more if the store had had the
capacity to wait upon all who came.
There is a spirit of buy manifested
in the city. When the Santa Fe an
nouncod that it would make good all
losses growing out of the explosion
there was no financial depression and
the people felt that Ardmore would be
a better city after it was rebuilt and
that there would be plenty of funds
to do the construction work. The bar
gains offered by the Madden store
have been appreciated by the public
and that appreciation has been mani
Tested in the unprecedented sales.
