'Future of the Country Center
Great economic changes often take
place without people realizing it.
Then when the current of prosperity
drifts by them, they wonder why they
did not see what was so apparent.
The past ten years have seen a
great economic uplift in country life.
The farmers are getting a price foi
their products nearer to what the?
.are entitled to. The country district
which once were undergoing a severe
economic struggle to achieve mere
subsistence, are on the whole pros
perous and specially favored ones
are wealthy.
All this reacts in favor of centers
like Sisseton that draw trade from
the surrounding farm country. With
a policy of liberal advertising, it is
possible for merchants to draw trade
from a wider circle than formerly
and to get more of it from a given
territory.
Also it will pay a country center
to look a good way ahead and plan
for a growing future. There should be
more money put into substantial con
struction. The man who contemplates
erecting a business building can af
ford to do it In a permanent way.
The man who has antiquated or
outworn building, instead of trying
to fix it up by temporary repairs,
should ask himself whether it would
not pay better to tear down the whole
thing, snd put up a modern business
block of fireproof material, /Vi busi

The country around here is per
manently prosperous and will grow
more so. The business men can bank
on it. Public buildings erected here
should be in keepink with the pros
perity of the section. The streets
should have a better surface than for
merly, the sidewalks should be oi
good material and kept in good re
pair. All these things mark the pros
perous town, and help it become more
prosperous.
TWO SPOTS
A friend asks what shall be done
with the business man who maintains
collections of inflammable refuse in
his basement? O, he ought to have a
chance to run a hose wagon up and
down the streets and lay 200 feet of
hose every morning, so he would be
ready to put out fires.
Also there is an inquiry what shall
be done with the people who tear up
waste paper into 1000 pieces and
scatter it on the streets? Well let
them pick up the pieces, and if the
1000th piece is missing, just make 'em
spend their valuable time hunting for
it till it is found.
And there is a demand to know
what to do with the store help who
sweep the dirt from the stores out on
the sidewalks? O, well, give 'em a
broom and let 'em finish the job by
sweeping the whole street.
If the dinners and cigars are all
right at the labor conference, it may
not make so much difference who
makes the speeches.

John Eklund has always been more
or less an advertising enthusiast.
That is, when he had anything on the
farm to sell he usually ran an ad in
the newspaper to tell the people he
had it for sale. But since he had his
sale last Thursday he has come firm
ly to believe that advertising space is
still the cheapest thing on the market.
John spent something like a hundred
dollars advertising his sale, inserting
a whole page in the Enterprise two
weeks, a page in the Big Stone Head-
