Clark Bros. Will Move Theif Roller
Mill to Omaha.

Clark Bros. propfietors of the L. on
Mills have at last definitely decided to
move the Leon mill to Omaha, and
will do no more grinding in this city
after March LIST when they will COM
mence tearing down the building and
will move it to Omaha, where they will
engage in the milling and cereal food
business
The Omaha World Herald of last
Saturday says:
Negotiations, which have been pend
ing for the past two months, were closed
last evening, and as soon as the build
Ing can be erected and machinery NOV
ed into it, Omaha will have another
flour mill ana its first cereal food mill.
X. l.. Clark Of Clark Bros, Leon, Ia,
closed the deal and deeds were passed
Tor the north east corner of Thirteenth
and Boyd streets, on which the mill will
be erected. The lots are on the Belt
Line and have excellent trackage facili.
ties. The sale was made by George n.
Hicks for the eastern owner, William G.
tabln. who has owned the property for
about thirty years, he being the second
owner from the government, When
Clark Bros. decided to move to larger
field last fall and had decided on an.
other city, 2. A. G. Stevens, represent.
ing the Wolf Machinery company here,
induced an investigation of Omaha s
advantages, with the result above
stated.
The firm will start in, Mr.. Clark said
last evening, on comparatively small
scale, but with building room and
power sufficient to move more than
treble the output. At first the mill
will, in addition to its breakfast foods,
corn, and oatmeal, ETC., have a capac.
ity for about 200 barrels of flour per
day. The machinery now in the mill
at Leon will be moved here and addi-
tional machinery, all Of the latest pat
tern, will be installed. With it will
come five families, and the rest of the
employees required will be engaged here.
The Clarks, father and sons, have
been successful millers in Iowa for over
a generation, and while not the largest
millers in the country, have the highest
rating given by the commercial agencies.
In coming to Omaha no bonus or favor
OF any kind has been or will he. asked
the firm having plenty of capital with
which to carry out all its plans"

having remarkable success in the treat
ment Of diseases and his business is i'm
creasing daily. Afflicted people from all
over the county and some from Missouri
have visited his Office in the Finley
block and are loud in their praises Of
the healer. The efficacy of his touch is
not confined to any particular ailment
but he is discovering from experience in
the work that his treatment is beneficial
in almost all cases. There are many
persons right here in Leon who, with.
out solicitation, testify that they have
received great benefit from Mr.. Avery's
treatment. and in the treatment of fe.
male troubles the results have been
most gratifying.
