liston anticline and this goes to show
that there is something worth
while to be found here. There ID no
field anywhere in the United States
where more prospecting is done TO-
day than in the North Dakota field
and without doubt this state will be
one ofthe leading states in the pro-
duction of oil in the very near future.
City to Use Oil
At the regular meeting Of the City
Commission on Monday evening of
this week it was decided that as soon
as oil was struck here that the city
would use some Of it to oil the strets
of the city. This operation would
add greatly to the improvement of
Of the streets and do away with the
dust. Zone application of this crude
oil on the street per year will keep
them in fine shape" said Mr.. Gordon
Phillips of the Oil Company this
morning, "and it will with the fine
foundation we have now for our
streets make them as good if not bet
ter than paved streets and the cost
will be much less."
Oil Well at Popular
The Pioneer Oil and Gas Company
is also sinking we'll at Poplar,
Mant., and from reports they expect
to strike oil or gas there in the near
future. The City of Williston has
given the company franchise for
the piping of gas into the city for
lighting purposes in case it is struck,
and majority of the property own
ers have signed up to use the gas in
their residences and store buildings
for heating purposes.
Some knocking has ben done to-
wards the oil we'll here during the
drilling by persons who have no in
terest in the same and who do not
understand the facts. So far most of
the expense Of the drilling has been
met by those connected with the COM
pany and very little tsock has been
sold to outsiders. This one fact
alone goes to show that this is not
skin-game proposition, for it would
be a mighty foolish proposition for
those who are drilling the well and
who are so we'll versed in the oil busi-
ness as to spend over two years here
and use their own money on a we'll
The wells being drilled near Minot
and which haven't near the excellent
prospects that the local we'll has, has
been backed by every person in the
city and they are boosting it all they
can. This matter should have the
hearty support Of every citizen in this
community for if a producing well
is brought in, Williston will become
one of the leading cities in the state
and of the United States.

MANN ADDRESS

(Colntlnued from page
vertising alone and consider it money
well spent, for I get it back many
times over" Mr.. Mann showed the
Williston merchants page after page
of his advertisements, booklets, circul-
ar letters and copies Of his store paper
With this kind of literature he floods
the country around DEVILS Lake, and
during the sale held by him during the
winter he took in $4,000 in eight
days. While talking he remarked that
he wished to catch the fast mail home
that night as he expected to 10 $4,000
worth Of business on the next day and
wished to be there to help in the store.
Mail Order Evil
"Sears Roebuck, alone" said Mr..
Mann, "sends eighty carloads Of cata-
logues into North Dakota each year
and there is $75,00O, 100000 spent in
United States each year for mail or
der goods of which $45,O0O, 10000
comes from North Dakota" To COM
bat this business, Mr. Mann stated
the Community Development Associ-
alton had been formed in the state and
over one hundred towns were visited
this year with the programs. The
Twin City wholesalers are aiding this
work and have established a Merch-
ants Aid Bureau. This bureau will
help the merchants along advertising
lines. Only about ten per cent of the
merchants of the state advertise and
the remaining ninety per cent do not
advertise, and some of them do not
believe in it. Those who do not be-
lieve in it should step down and out of
business for they will never make a
success of it as long as they foster
those ideas. The credit business has
been the ruination of the retail bust
ness and the merchants must go on
the cash basis, and then they will be
able to meet the mail order houses on
IA price basis. The merchants must all
so work with the farmer, help them to
solve their problems and cooperate
ith them for better raods and better
community"
Other Talks
Following Mr. Mann's talk short
talks were given by DR.. McLaren Of
the Community Development Associ-
alton, Mr.. Saxton of the Williston
Grocery Co., Mr.. Francis, J. B. Lyon,
Mr.. Bangs, F.. L. Greene, William
Husebye, N. B. Ludowese, C. C. Rieg-
er, w. S. Arthur and Mr.. Finley who
was here to aid the Reclamation Ser
vice instarting of the irrigation this
this summer.
Mr.. Finley, who has been with the
Reclamation Service for the past twel-
We years and has sad charge Of the
Yakama project, stated that he had
never seen less spirit towards irri-
CATION any place in the country as is
displayed here 1T Williston. He said
he would remain till after the water
was flowing in the bitches and hoped
that more Of a cooperative spirit
would be shown towards this import.
