might enjoy the privileges Of church
of their own denomination, they NOV
ed to Minot in 1911, renting what is
now the Rosedale farm for one year,
at the end Of which time they pur-
chased the farm and erected a fine
home and suitable buildings. During
their stay here the Towner county
farm has been in charge Of their ED
est son but this young man has now
taken homestead in Montana and in
order that he may give the proper at
tention to his interests in Towner
county Mr.. Beeghly finds it necessary
to move back to the old farm and take
personal charge.
In addition to his farming interests
Mr.. Beeghly has found time to take
an active part in business pursuits. In
1906 he organized a Farmers Mutual
Insurance company in Towner county
which has now grown to such proper
tions that during the past year the
policies in force cover risks exceeding
one and half million dollars. For
years past he has also engaged in the
sale Of binding Irvine and binders, his
sales during one year consisting of
eight car loads of Irvine and ~ bind
ers. OF late years he has curtailed his
activities in this direction and devoted
his time to supervising his farming
interests. He has been actively iden-
titled with the Dunkard church, which
is the only church Of this denomina-
ton in the state. It is SITUATED four
miles north of Surrey.

When the grain market is active, as
it has been for this season, the tenden-
cy to speculate is strong. Great f1uc-
tuations in prices create the POSSIBLE
ity of large profits, and though the
possibility of equally large losses is
equally present, mans natural opti-
mism leads him to look on the more
cheerful side, and the matter of pos
sible losses is usually given but slight
consideration. In most neighborhoods
there are those persons who have made
winnings on the recent advance in
wheat prices, and reports of these are
passed around until the speculation
fever becomes quite prevalent. AS to
whether to buy or sell, how much, and
at what price, it is scarcely the func-
ton of a newspaper to advise the in
dividual, but one feature which can
not be too strongly emphasized is that
the man who cannot afford to lose can
not afford to speculate
Whatever we may think Of the eth
les of market speculation, whether we
regard it as legitimate business or as
mere gambling, as business PROPOSE
ton it is something which one man
can afford, and which another cannot.
The man who has his debts paid, the
needs of his business and his family
provided for, and a comfortable bal
ance in his bank may without imperil-
ing the welfare of his family or the
security of his business, take a chance
on the grain market, just as he may
take chance on the turn of card.
His loss, if he loses, will entail suffer-
ing on no one. But the man who has
actual need for all his funds shows
poor Judgment if he risks any part of
his possessions in speculation, even
though there is the possibility of large
profits.

WHY?

If man went down town with his
head dolled up in three-cornered
dingus and a cats tail and chickens
head pinned on one side, and a young
whiskbroom and a bunch of spring
onions on the other side and two strips
of red flannel hanging down in the
rear, he would be arrested and slam
med in the BOBBY hatch. But wo-
man can do it and get away with it.
?-Estherville Ga.) Democrat.
If a woman went down town with a
cigarette in her mouth, stood around
on the corners and squirted tobacco
Juice all over everything. swore every
other breath, used foul language and
staggered around, she would soon be
arrested. But a man can do it and
read to find out whether he is a candi-
date or merely was cured of some
thing.

Parshall Leader: The Leader pub
Usher has been rather amused Of late
to note how gullible is the average
business man in the matter of adver-
Using. It appears any stranger can
drop into town and sting them for va
rious amounts according to the person
atty of the canvasser. To instance, a
young woman hit the town recently
and secured eight business cards to a
church directory, on which was sup
plication to attend church services, as
a bait. This young person was to
frame these cards and post them in
conspicuous places; so far we have
noted one of the cards framed in a
home made way, far from attractive
but the advertisers footed the cost.
The Ward County independent. [volume] (Minot, Ward County, N.D.) 1902-1965, 1916-10-12

Had not less than thirty of these cards
been properly framed and posted con-
spicuously, as promised, the advertis-
ing would have been commensurate
with the cost. A bag advertising
scheme readily caught every merchant
in the town. Half thought to the
psychology of readers would have
forced home the truth that people
rarely pay attention to the reading
matter on paper bag. Had the Lead
er publisher attempted an advertising
scheme of the kind he would have
been dubbed a CRATER. Any fool can
come along and catch the average
merchant on hotel registry card,
where half dozen or so of these cards
are posted up. But not the home print
err, who lives in town and hasn't the
hardihood to string business men on
fake advertising schemes.

Do you want to make a clear saving
of S25 to $50 on your expenses be-
tween now and the first day of next
January? You can do it and this is
the way you can do it. You will be
making many purchases for yourself
and your family for fall and winter
purposes and for the Christmas time
There is always some merchant in
town who will do little better by
you than anybody else. When mer-
chant is able to do this he is keen to
advertise and let the people know just
what he can and will do. Your own
cue is to read carefully each week the
advertisements in this paper. They
will tell the story and the name of the
merchant who makes the story. Read
the ads.

J. J. BEEGHLY TO HOLD
AUCTION SALE OCT. 26
Father of Family of 13-Came to
State in '97-Now One of the
States Wealthiest Farmers

]. J. Beeghly of the Rosedale Stock
farm, two miles east and one-half mile
north of the city, is advertising sale
on Thursday, Oct. 26. This will be
one of the most important sales to be
held in this section this season. The
stock which is being offered is of SUI
perior quality as Mr.. Beeghly is noted
throughout the state as breeder of
high grade stock, particularly Perch
eron horses. On the original Rosedale
Stock Farm in Towner county he owns
number of prize winning animals.
In conversation with Mr.. Beeghly we
learn that his success as a farmer in
North Dakota in a measure has been
more pronounced than the average yet
instances somewhat similar are called
to our attention frequently.
Coming to North Dakota in 1897
from their old home in Maryland with
family of 10 children Mr.. and Mrs.
Reeghly faced the prospect of carving
home and sustenance from the un-
broken prairies with but $33 in cash
to capitalize the venture. They ar
rived at Devils Lake one Sunday
morning in June. The night prior
there had been a heavy frost. A sym
paCneClc OySCanOer was nedrQ 20 re-
mark that he didn't see why man
wanted to bring a family Of small
children into this God-forsaken coun-
try to freeze.
Nothing daunted they proceeded to
Cando where he took up homestead
and for the first few years by dint of
hard work gradually got ahead and
from that time forward fortune has
smiled upon their efforts. Mr.. Beeghly
now owns one of the finest farms in
Towner county, consisting of GAO acres
with fine buildings and equipment.
Desiring to live where his family

Within a few months the farmers
of North Dakota will be mighty busy
securing enough good seed wheat for
their needs. Ward coupnty grew some
very good seed wheat this year, not a
great deal, but perhaps plenty for
seed, providing all of it can be kept
for that purpose. Not bushel of
such wheat should be shipped away. 1t
will command a fancy price in the
spring.

STOCK PROMOTERS

If a promoter tries to sell you
stocks that will double in year and
promise to pay 10 per cent annual div
idend, be assured that somebody is
trying to make an easy living on your
hard-earned cash. Don't be a fool.
Lead that stock promoter to the front
door and gently kick him over into
the next county.
