CITY BUILDING
CONTINUES IN
FALL SEASON

The seasons building in Bismarck
has not ended in the middle of the
summer as in previous years. Many
people have started their homes at
tn eclose of the spring rush, making
the fall fine season for building.
Ten new houses have been started
or are ready for construction work
to begin since the first part Of July.
Adding these to the twenty-five which
were built during the carly part Of
1923, Bismarck has a total of 80 new
homes or rcmodeled, homes con-
structed or under construction,
which will far exceed in value. the
$l4O,55O estimated cost of the % new
homes. This number brings up the
total number in Bismarck to high
figure compared with other cities in
the northwest. ".
Among the ten new homes planned
are the following: =
E. D. Hughes, 704 Twelfth street;
J. L.. Hughes, $40 Eleventh street;
Thompson and Healow, four houses
on Seventh apd Mandan, remodeled;
Peter Wilcox, corner Of Sweet and
Third; Mrs. Mary Mckee, SIS Four

MAKE FARMS
MORE INVITING
Work of County Agent Tends
to Place Country Life
on High Plane

Durham, N. H, Sept. o.-Significant
changes tending to check the eco
monte trend which has been sapping
iarm life have been brought about
by county agent work in the interest
Of better farming, according to re-
port Of J. C. Kendall, director of CO.
operative extension work in the Uni
versity of New Hampshire. Taking
as basis conditions in Sullivan,
county, where in August ten years
ago county agent work was first be-
gun. Director Kendall points to nu
merous developments which he at
tributes directly and indirectly to
extension activities.
"In the first place, the spirit OF
aloof individualism has very largely
gone," Mr.. Kendall says. People in
the old days used to go to meetings
to scott at the agricultural special
list; now they stay and ask questions.
They used to think it was q mistake
to share their ideas on farming with
each other; now they get together
and discuss ways in which they can
Cooperate to advantage.
But the advance has not been one
in spirit only" he adds, and points
to, scores of new houses built accord
ing to extension recommendations;
to standard feeding; the testing Of
two score thousands of birds; and to
hillsides Of Macintosh apple orchards
destined to the axe and saved only
by demonstrations that the scab
could be controlled.
The building up Of cow-testing asso-
Citations, the tendency toward better
sires, hundreds of alfalfa fields that
yield three crops instead of two,
farmers exchanges which do an an
nual business in the state of $780,
900 are all evidences OF the move
ment, Mr.. Kendall asserts.
Substantial results in making farm
life more desirable for young people
and their elders alike are also OBJ
servable. He points to better bal
anced meals, more economical and at
tractive wardrobes, wa:is of more
prepossessing appearance and kitch-
ems with modern conveniences. Last
year 10000 women worked together
to make each other dress forms of
gummed paper, co-operated in max
ing patterns and helped each other
make fireless cookers.
In addition, Mr.. Kendall points to
boys and girls clubs and asserts that
the significance of 1000 youngsters
training in various farm and home
projects is not to be easily waved
aside.

Japan Exports

: Toxic, Sept. 8.-Japan's foreign
trade showed a marked decrease for
the first six months of the present
Year compared with the same period
last year, the imports still exceeding
the exports. The former totalled

a92,478,000 yen.
Compared'with the previous year
the exports decreased by more than
20,0O0,000 yen while the imports in
CROSSED by upwards of 100000 yen.
The exports to America, largely raw
silk, increased by more than 48,O00,-
600 yen. but the imports from AM
erica decreased by 1864 ,403 yen.
8 The decrease in imports from AM
erica was due to the lessened de-.
mand here for American wheat, raw

ROMANCE LIES
BEHIND CHAIN
STORE GROWTH
Transact Almost 10 Per Cent
of Nations Retail
Business
ECONOMY IN OPERATION
Feared at First That Their
Products Might be
Inferior
ECONOMY IN OPERATION

New York, Sept. S.-One Of the
greatest romances in American retail:
business has been the growth Of chain
grocery stores, 10000 Of which nov
transact slightly less than 10 percent
Of the nations retail grocery bus
mess, estimated at $4,000, 100000 an
nually. If the present ratio of growth
is maintained, this will be increased
to % percent within the next five
years.
Economy of operation by reason of
the fact that the business is trans
acted on a cash basis with heavy
turnover and small profits. and the
rapid development Of American su-
burban and community life. have been
the two main factors responsible for
this tremendous growth. Scientific
investigation has revealed that a COM
munity Of 1000 persons will permit
the operation of chain store grocery
at satisfactory profits, though one
store can serve several times that
number.
The first chain grocery stores in
the country were viewed with suspi-
cion on the theory that the lower
prices they charged meant inferior
products. This feeling, however, has
to large extent disappeared, mainly
due to the fact that the chain stores
have offered nationally advertised
articles at prices below those charged
by indepe ndent grocers.
The pioneer in the chain store field
was the Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea
Company, which was established in
1853 This concern now has more than
5000 stores doing an annual business
of approximately $3.50, 0O0, 900. Unlike
a number of other chain store con-
Germs, the ownership and control Of
this organization has remained in the
hands of one family.
The second largest chain grocery
firm is the Jones Bros. Tea Company,
which started with cne store in
Scranton, Pa, in 1874 and now has
$50 stores in 200 cities, doing an an
nual business Of approximately $40,-
10000.
The Jewel Tea Company has SCI
branches from which 21,864 wagon
and motor truck routes operate in -
country also are more than 800 Pig
gly Wrggly stores, although they are
not all owned by the same corpor-
ation.
Perhaps the greatest chain store
concern in the country outside the
grocery field is the F. w. Woolwotth
Co., which started with one store in
Lancaster, Pa, in 1879 and now oper-
ates more than 1900 stores doing a.,
annual gross business Of over $751;
100000 The United Cigar Stores have
approximately 2,450 stores.
Other large chain store concerns
are the j. e. Penney Co., operating
1872 department stores doing an an
nual business Of more than $50. e00,-
coo; the S. S. Kresge Company with
212 stores and annual gross business
in excess Of $65,000,OOO; Schultz Re
tail Stores Corporation with 239
stores in 1922, doing an annual bus
mess of nearly $25 200, 900; the Unit
ed Drug Company with more than
$50 stores; the G. r. Kinney Com
pany operating 131 shoe stores; the
McCrory Stores Corporation with 1876
stores. the S. A. Kress Co. with $50
stores and the Melville Shoe Corpor-
alton with 81 stores.
