perience which may be of benefit to

A representative of the Storage Co.
came to my creamery and said that they
wanted the cream from my creamery,
but did not want to spend four or five
hundred dollars to put me out of bust
ness and offered me one cent per pound

A. Wells has been fixing the road to
the Cray bridge on Beaver Creek and
has done asplendid job and he deserves
much credit for same. We think up
this way that our county board ,of
commissioners are making a sad
mistake in letting the county bridge
work to contractors. Time will tell.
1t seems as though the past experi-
ences of letting our bridge work to
contractors was very expensive to the
county. We remember how it was at
Foreston when the bridge fell before
1t Was completed. Oftimcs it is a
serious mistake and very detrimental
to the interest of the people Of the
county.

$112,199 is THE TOTAL
This Sum Represents the Value
Of the Permanent Improve
ments in Cresco This Year.

AS has been our custom for several
years past, at the close of the building
season, we compile a list of the build
ing and permanent Improvements to
Cresco property during the year, and
the sum total as given above is very
gratifying, representing as it does
such healthy and substantial growth.
The Improvements include three busi-
ness places, one Of them the Alliance
store, being in some respects the best
store store building in the city; and
thirty-seven new residences, but
Notwithstanding this large number,
we can call to mind but six vacant
residences in the city, and four Of
them are unsuitable on account.of To-
cation or condition. The cement
walks and floors laid this season will
aggregate about 1900 square feet.
Mr.. Freehauf has also considerably
enlarged his heating plant and all the
large residences erected this season
and many other private residences, as
we'll as school and churches have had
this heat ,installed the cost of which
is considerable but has not been in
cluded in this list. The list is as COM
plete as we could make it, the figures
in most instances having been given
US by owners or contractors, but doubt
less many minor improvements have
been omitted.
