When you see* a ellbw sitting on the bank of a
stream, yanking in fish at a lively rate^ you know there's
a HOOK on his line—and something on the hook that is
PISCATORIALLY FASCINATING, otherwise the fish
wouldn't PAUSE to nibble, but would swim right on
about their business.
Building lip TRADE without NEWSPAPER AD­
VERTISING is LIKE TRYING TO CATCH FISH WITH
A NAKED STRING.
Communities afe'GROWING, people are BUSY, the
families that it would be humanly possible for YOU to do
business with are SCATTERED and all the while moving

Today we turn from thexgrim business of war to the great commercial, economic and industrial problems
of PEACE. Bismarck, like every other great city in the world, must face these problem: out she will face them
with a great advantage. Here, no great inflation of population has occurred. -Other cities, because of war con
tracts, cantonments shipping facilities,-location or (environment have, for the time being only, more population
than they can properly care for. Most of this population they will lose now that Peace has come and these activi­
a
Great plants that have been working day and night in those cities turning out guns, ammunition, clothing
and equipment for soldiers and other necessities to the winning of the war, must now be converted into agencies
for theVnanufacture of other things. This means time and the loss of thousands of laborers who will go to
other cities that can give them immediate employment \.
Bismarck is in an enviable position As soon as. the ban is lifted there are many applications for building
permits ready to be filed. This alone will mean immediate employment for ever 200 skilled artisians and at
least many additional common laborers.
These and a hundred other improvements, new factories, new commercial, establishments, jiew agencies of
commerce to supply to the world our Prairie,products, will attract thousands pf men from every' part of the
country, from Canada and from overseas, and will mean a great, new, bustling, thriving, population for Bis-
And Bismarck tost care for and feed and house this new population that WILL NOW COME and will be
A PERMANENT ADDITION to our more than 7,500 people who are already here.
What will this mean to the owners of Bismarck Real Estate? The answer is plain. Since the war began
we have seen the prices of food, of clothes, of amusements, of building material, of everything we eat and wear
and tts£ go soaring skyward. REAL ESTATE, however (the basis of all value), has remained stationary. Tq-

day the great change begins. In a £ew months the rents will begin to advance, improved property will start up­
ward in prices and desirable building lots will see a marked and steady increase in value. Bismarck is in for the
biggest Real Estate boom in all her history—a boom that will have no reaction, one that will represent honest
values that come fromjncreased demand through increased population.

—competition is STIFF, RESOURCEFUL and TIRE­
LESS—the man who tries to get by without PRINTER'^
INK HAS THE CHANCE OF A PEG-LEGGED MAN IN
A MARATHON.
No businessman feels any more that he's SAFE, and
"REGULAR** and BONA FIDE, in his business under-"
pinning unless he ADVERTISES.
The ad is read FAR MORE today than ever—adver­
tising is now universally held to be a legitimate and nec­
essary adjunct of every honest business—and the tend­
ency is toward MORE and BETTER advertising—espe
cially in NEWSPAPERS!
