Beltrami county is abundantly

Peat briquettes have been success
fully made and used as fuel and If
the industry could be started in this
county, indications are that one of the
greatest business enterprises in Inc
northwest could be developed.
Land owners, who are becoming
discouraged, would remain content ID
on their farms and those who own
peat lands would be ANXIOUS to As
sist in every way possible.
Peat land owners would cut peat
from the bog and dry it in the sun
provided they could market their fuci
product successfully.

COMMERCIAL STUDENTS
HEAR ADVERTISING TALK
E. H. Denu of Pioneer Address,
es Students on Fundamentals
of "Salesmanship"

E. H. Denu of the Daily Pioneer
gave a talk to the students of the Be-
midi Business college Friday eve.
ming on advertising and salessnanship
"Selling and advertising" said til
speaker, "are inseparable units Of the
same thing, 'salesmansh;p.' Salesman.
snip means knowing how to handle
words and people as we'll as goods.
Successful salesmen are students of
human nature. Students Of what peo-
file want and how to convince then
that they really want it enough to
pay the price.
advertising reduces the selling
cost by increasing the demand for
goods and at the same time mskM:s;
no increase in the total selling OK
pense. 1t helps to consolidate inc
reputation of good merchandise.
"Those merchants, who allow tie
goods to sell themselves, depending
on the personal recommendation Uf
consumers, do so at the expense OF
selling costs, which because their mar
kets are limited and slow, are bound
to be extremely high. This was
a fairly safe procedure when competi-
ton was slight. It is suicidal today.
"The art of advertising lies in pre-
senting facts ~attractively, in placing
way that they are impressed. 4
knowledge before the public in such
good ad acts on ones mind always
in the same way. A perfectly orderly
process of thought is set in notio::..
It attracts, creates interest, kinuies
desire, convinces and impels action.
The speaker further stated that al
vertising has thus far been used scien-
tifcally only in selling merchandise.
He predicted that it would some day
be used scientifically in selling ideas
and thought. And that the adver.is-
ing expert could present these ideas
in a way that would make men think,

Manager Department of Immigration
and Industry Northern Pacific
Railway Company.

Old fashioned methods Of land set
tlement cannot succeed under pres
cnt conditions in developing the west.
The time has past when the rail
roads, or any other influential agency,
will cooperate with mere land spec
ulators, but they will gladly cooper
ate with those land owners and real
estate agents who make the settlers
welfare their first consideration.
The prosperity and permanent well
fare of the settler is the first consid-
Grafton of the Northern Pacific rail
way company and all its departments
hot the profit of the land agents.
Thousands of people, now living in
closely-populated eastern states, are
eager to move west "to grow up with
the country" but they will not move
until they know they have a chance to
succeed and that they will secure i
reasonable pioneers profit. Hereto
fore many settlers have been lurcd
to western farms by eloquent repre-
sentations and left. there without
enough resources to permit them to
develop their land or make Il busi-
ness success Of their properties.
But these conditions are passing.
The west needs people today more
than ever before. The United States
has no greater problem than the de-
velopment Of it's unused lands.
The Northern Pacific is ready to
help solve this problem. 1t is ready
to cooperate in placing many thous-
ands of settlers in the west and in
turning the tide of immigration back
to the country from the city.
But, is the west ready to receive the
settlers?
If it is, we cun send the people. We
are receiving hundreds Of letters
weekly from men who want to move
to the northwest and our immigration
agents are calling upon several hun
dred of the most likely Of these pros
poets each month,
There is only one answer to; the
question: "What are the best meth
dds of securing desirable settlers for
vacant lands?" 1t is: make u
place for thcm." Reverse the order
of things as heretofore practiced in
this country-that Of painting bright
pictures of the land far away and then
confning efforts at land settlement to
