BUILD NOW
'Own
a Home for Your Children's
Sake"
Ambitions may be realized in your
children if you have the home envir
onment which transmits to them the
ambition. The bas deencim wfm fm
ambition. The basic need is a home
and the sense of shelter and security
which goes with ownership.
If ther were no other arguments
worth while men would be more than
'justified in building and owning their
own homes for the children's sake.
Like father like son! The next
generation will not be a
home-own
ing one if the present generation
doesn't show the benefits of home
owning and inculcate the home-own
ing ambition.
If oyu are determined that John
and Mary shall have a fair show to
make good on your ambitions for them
get tucked away in your own home—
a home that is all yours and theirs.
It will become to them the very hub of
the universe a very sacret spring of
inspiration and a very tangible ex
ample of the prudence of thrift. If
you would do your part toward mak
ing your children's future secure in a
nation of home owners—BUILD
NOW.
Characteristics of Good Water
Water for domestic use should be
clear, lustrous, odorless, colorless,
wholesome, soft, neither strongly
acid nor alkaline, and its temper
ature for general farm purposes
^should be about 50 degrees F. These
characteristics, however, must never
be deemed proof of purity, for a
glass of water may possess them all
and yet contain millions of disease
producing germs. Any suspicious
water should be rejected until both
the water and the surroundings where
it is obtained are passed upon by
competent sanitation authority, gen
erally the State board of health

What Others are Doing
Following is an article or report of
a meeting of the Commerical Club of
our neighboring and progressive city
of Wolf Point. Several months ago
they started a club and today they
are ready for their secretary. Much
time has ben wasted here in the mat
ter of a secretary, and many have ex
presed the idea that there wasn't any
one in the community who was cap
able of handling thej job. Take a look
at Wolf Point they selected a Willis
ton man for a secretary and we be
lieve they have made no mistake in
doing so.

progress with club work and plenty
of pep and push marked the monthly
meeting of the Commercia 1 Club,
held at the Sherman Tuesday evening
The meeting was lasting evidence
that hte club was off to a god start
and headed towards the accomplish
ment of the work for which it was
organized
The most important action of the
evening was the consideration of E.
W. Hall for secretary of the club.
The final decision as to employing
Mr. Hall was left to the club direct
ors, but it was the sense of the meet
ing, expressed by an unanimous vote,
that he be employed provided a per
sonal interview proved mutually satis
factory. Thesuggestion that he 6e
requested to come here to meet the
board, at club expense, was acted on
at a meeting held Wednesday. Tem
porary secretary Garden sent the re
quest by wire to Elbowoods, N. D.,
where Mr. Hall is at present residing
The club has been in search of a
man for the position of salaried sec
retary for the past two months, with
small prospect of success. At the
March meting Mr. Hall was suggested
by C. L. Marshall, who was intimate
ly acquainted with him at Williston
where Mr. Hall was county agricult
ural agent of Williams county for
three years. John F. Cook, P. A.
Campbell and others who knew him
at Williston spoke very favorably of
Mr. Hall. His reply to Secretary
Garden's letter was read at the meet
ing last Tuesday night and there was
consdirable discussion of his qualifi
cations. He is expected to arrive in
a few dhys.
Concludes With Feed

Do You Pay 66^
for Sirloin Steak?
—or 33 Cents?
We serve all tastes
A recent Government bulletin
quoted sirloin steak in different
cities at prices ranging from 33
to 66 cents!
We buy live cattle, according
to quality, all the way from $7.00
to $20.00 per hundred-weight,
live weight. Sirloins from these
cattle vary greatly in quality.
Some retailers sell 33 cent sir
loins. These steaks come from
cheaper cattle.
Customers of other retailers
demand choice sirloins at 66cents.
These retailers buy meat from
higher-priced cattle.
Also, the retailer who carries
complete stocks, delivers to your
door, and lets you run a charge
account, has to get higher pric&
than the retailer who runs a
"cash and carry" store.
We sell beef of a given qual
ity at practically the same price
all over the country—except for
slight differences due to freight
rates.
And our profit hardly affects
the price at all—only a fraction
of a cent per pound.
