Statistics show that in towns of two
thousand population and less Is per
cent of the merchants business is
with the farmer. Merchants in towns
of from two thousand to five thou
sand population do IS per cent of their
business with farmers; in towns of
from five thousand to ten thousand
they do so per cent and in cities of
over ten thousand population 40 per
cent Of the merchants business is
with farmers. When we consider
these figures, it ought to be plain to
all our business men that the farmer
cannot spend the percentage which he
should spend and would spend unless
his business is profitable and he is
able to make that money before
spending it. It, therefore, should ap-
peal to the business man as bust
ness proposition because the business
man can assist the farmer in many
ways and should always be ready to
do everything in his power to help
him along the right roads of prog
ress. No country has ever prosper
ed on single crop basis having one
pay day year and often times miss
ing that. Every country which has
adopted dairy farming as an import
ant feature of it's agricultural de-
velopment has prospered, land values
have increased, farms have become

has been stimulated along the right
and better lines. The most intelli-
gent and most progressive nations
of the world are those which use dairy
products in abundance. In fact, the
measurement of human enlightenment
may be expressed in terms of milk
and butter and cheese used per capita.
Human health is vitality affected by
the use-or lack of sufficient
quantity of milk products. The well
fare of the childhood Of our country

fare, and progress of the dairy in
dustry.
Already a large number from this
locality have signified their inten-
tions of attending the Dairy Show and
it is expected that at least one car
will be occupied by people from Minot
and the surrounding territory. All
those who expect to attend are re.
quested to communicate with Mr.. Per-
son at the earliest possible moment
SO that reservations may be made in
advance.
Ward County is fast becoming noted
for its Guernsey cattle and Minot as
a market for dairy products. Spe-
cial advertising features will be ar
ranged to put this fact before the
world and it is hoped that large
delegation will be ready to help put
this across.
Arrangements are being made to
take the Minot High School band, un-
der the direction of Prof. John How
ard on the trip. This feature in it.
SELF will be a great advertisement
for Minot and the Minot High school.
It will give the boys a splendid op-
portunity to take in the great edu-
cational dairy show and enjoy a splen-
did outing.
Mandan is sending their Nut Quar-
tet and many other parts of the State
are planning to contribute educational
and entertainment features to the
trip.
Let everyone get behind this move
ment and boost it in the good old
Minot way.

Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Winters have

They visited at Mr.. Winters old home
at Benton Harbor, Mich, and at Mrs
Winters former home, Wabash, Ind.
They motored over the National Park
trail thru Wisconsin going down the
river and crossing the state via Madi-
son, passing thru one of the most
beautiful sections of the middle west
Mr.. Winters noted that the tourists
leave considerable money in every
town thru which the trail passes and
merchants should appreciate this fact
A city on national highway is very
fortunate. They went by train to
New York City where Mr.. Winters
selected lines for his jewelry store.
Conditions are very unsettled in the
east and there were very few buyers
in New York. Prices are lower or
many things than they will be later
for the factories are trying to keep
going and are throwing out induce
ments to get the public to buy. In
many factories only I'VE peIceHI VI

working and Mr.. Winters says there
is bound to be hard times in the east
the coming winter. Many who re-
ceived high wages for several years

nothing but hard times. There are
no potatoes in Indiana, Ohio and Mich.
igan and other crops are short. Mr.

rounding district does not know what
hard times are and considers that we
are very fortunate.

The case of the Ward County In
dependent VS.. the City of Minot and
the Special Assessment Board Of the
city Of Minot was tried before the
State Supreme court at Bismarck
Tuesday of last week and decision
was rendere Saturday affirming the
decision of Judge Lowe, in granting
a preemptory writ of mandamus on
plaintiffs application awarding all city
legal printing to the Ward County In
The city had taken an appeal from the
decision Of the lower court. McGee
& Goss appeared for the plaintiffs
and City Attorney j. J. Coyle for the
defendants.
The Independent laid claim to the
city printing by virtue OF its election
as the county, city and state o--cial
paper in November. Senate Bill 103
introduced by Senator Ployver of
Valley City was enacted at the re-
cent session Of the legislature, COM
pelling city councils to publish the
proceedings of all meetings in ian
official paper to be designated by
them.' The. plaintiff claimed the law
to be unconstitutional as far as desig-
mating any other official paper, mas
much as the publication was desig-
mated by vote Of the people as the
legal publication, contract having
been awarded. The law providing for
the election of legal papers was re-
enacted by vote in November, and
therefore any new law changing a
law enacted by the people must carry
a two-thirds vote of all of the mem
bers of both the house and the SEN
ate.
The suit was entirely friendly or
the part of both plaintiffs and de-
fendants, inasmuch as certain i'm
portant legal notices are to be pub
lished and it is imperative that they
be published in the city official paper
A new record in speed in trying
cases was made. The case was start.
ed, heard and determined on Aug. 22
It was taken to the Supreme court
and heard on Sept. 6 and decision
was rendered Sept. 10. Only Is days
elapsed from the time case started
