PAGE EIGHT — NORTHWEST IN BUSINESS LEAD, TO MAINTAIN IT J. L. Tipton, Northwestern Man-! ager For Harvester Com- pany, Is Optimistic DEALERS Hotel Banquet at McKenzie Closcs Meeting Here—Dealers | Drive “Red Babies” Away The great Northwest already heads the procg:sion advancing on prosper- ity, and will maintain that place in the onward march zor the next ten years, according to J. L. Tipton, man- ager for the Northwestern district— including Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North and Sout: Dakota, Montana,Ida- ho, Washington and Oregon—for the International [Harvester Company, who addressed over one hundred dealers for the company at a: vanquet at the McKenzie hotel last night. The banquet was the climax of the . day’s program of “pep and prosperity’ meetings. It followed ‘the unique and striking parade of ‘Red Babies’— shiny, new red trucks which the im- plement dealers ‘have purchased to canvass the country for siness— which moved through the business streets, of Bismarck. After the ban- quet the dealers jeft in their new “Red Babies,” over the different highways, for their homes. By next week 300 wf these “Nations’ Service Trucks,” as they have been termed, will be cov- ering the highways and byiways of North Dakota and rendering service to the farmers to an extent never be- fore attempted or even dreamed. P. R, Fields, manager of the Bismarck branch, was toastmaster of the even- ing, . “This district has the jump on the rest of the country,” said Mr. Tipton, “and it must use every effort to hold its advantages. North Dakota and (surrounding territory thas the re- sources to compete with any section of the United States and to surpass most ‘of it, ‘We also have the progressive. spirited people who can make business a living fact in every line ig they get out and hustle hard enough. Depression fassing. “The depression fs practically over, unemployment is disappearing, crop ‘prospects are good, prices for farm oroducts are jumping up, the clouds of agriculture are fast passing and the sun is shining again. We can make ‘North Dakota and district the center of the nation’s prosperity if we want to. I believe qwe will do it.” Mr. Alexander is an exponent of te dairy ‘business. He urged dealers to devote some of their time to, urging crop diversification. “There is no one factor that pro- duces the wealth to the farmer than does the dairy cow,” he said. “She \produces a crop twice a day, three hundred and sixty-five days in a year, and it ‘makes no difference to her whether there may be hard times or not; she does not take it into atcount but is a faithful producer every day. “The one-crop farmer is a}ways han- dicapped by the possibility of failure; not only from drouth but from ‘hail and various other causes, and when his one crop is destroyed, his entire year’s work is gone for naught, but i¢ he would diversify his farming and pro- vide feed to take care of, his dairy . cows, there is no climatic condition What will interfere with their produc- tion and as the crop, is saleable every \ day in the year and at a profit and for cash, my message is merely to en- courage in every way possible, the milkigg of more cciws. “By a cow. I do not mean an animal which has horns and a tail, as a Uairy cow requires other qualifications and when it 1g considered that a high producing cow can ve cared for and fed as cheaply and as easily as a scrub cow, it is of very great importance that a producing cow of known quality ‘be secured, Congratulates Bankers. “It is very gratifying indeed to know that the bankers of North Da- kota have volunteered to loan money to farmers who will jnvest the loan in dairy cows.” ‘While the state of North Dakota as ‘a whole is represented by a cash in- come from the deiry industry of $14,- 000,000 per annum from 370,707 dairy cows located on 77/096 farms, 43 per cent, of the total is tributary to Bis- marck, IN, D., he said. Dealers Sing Songs. ‘The banquet was held in Patterson hall, The tables were arranged in the form of a great square. During the evening an orchestra played and the dealers enthusiastically sang several songs, among them parodies in whica the “Red Baby” truck ‘was frequently mentioned, There were miniature “Red Raby” trucks on the tavles in the ban- quet‘aall, and one dealer, holding one of them in ‘his hands, led three rous- ing cheers for the “sales and service” agent. The tables were handsomely decorated, and eac dealer wore @ clown cap and a carnation in his coat.

He said that his firm tock hold of a lumber and implement business in Glendive in 1915 taat had done a $15,000, a year busine:is,.and by use of a great deal of advertising his firm increased the business to $155,000 in one year. é Dealers Present The following dealers: were, in. at- tendance: 5 A._A.
