Business of cresco tor 1900.

We are enabled to give a partia
synopsis of the buSines of Cresco fo1
the year 1900.
The number of cars of stock and
hogs sent out during the year is 45O
loaded with grain and seeds of various
kinds the shipments were 479 cars.
OF coal, wood, lumber, lime, brick,
building stone, salt, apples, and vari-
GUS kinds of merchandise and house
hold goods there has been received
1,050 cars.
The shipments of grain by Q. W..
Tyrrell have been 194 cars during the
year 1900, and w. T. Hunting durir g
the same year shipped somewhere
about the same number of cars.
Daniel Barnes reports the shipment
of 1872 cars Of hogs, containing $3.50
hogs, costing s99,665.9O, and Is cars of
cattle containing 423 head, costing
sl7,227. This leaves 300 cars Of hogs
and stock which have been used by
other buyers who we have been un-
able to see.
M. j. Malanaphy, and Mr.. Mara are
the other principal shippers of hogs
and cattle, although considerable has
been sent out by the owners. The
value of these shipments we are un-
able to state, but it is reasonable to
estimate them on the basis Of the
shipments made by Mr.. Barnes, which
makes a prosperous year for Cresco.

Booming!
That Ice-Trust.
Mr.. Editor:

Mr.. Editor:
Please let me try and set myself
right before the people OF this COM
munity through the columns of the
PLAIN DEALER.
1t appears l have committed seri-
Gus crime. 1 haven't killed any one
or robbed the mails, but I did worse
as it was done without any considera-
t1on at all. saw two men taking
part of what has cost me good deal
to save SO I simply asked them to con-
tribute.
This was a bad blunder. l had
stepped on some ones toes and it hurt
bad. Now 1 am just like the rest OF
you, you won't pay for ice unless you
have to, and 1 won't keep the dam in
repair and give you part of the water
unless have to.
But have got to do this for it
would cost me more than it came to
and besides am not able or willing to
have suit with the whole commun-
lty. l am sorry it happened but L
can't cry. l am not the only man
that ever made mistake.
Lime Springs is getting all the ben
etit of my skill and money. How does
it look now compared with six years
ago when came here? Has any man
done better.
on, yes, if any man does some little
thing that don't just suit you, club
together; bust him up and kick him
out.
1t is hard for new firm to start in
this town anyhow. Maybe this ice
deal will make Lime Springs famous
for its purity and cheapness as every
one wants it bad at present.
l haven't the time TO go around ask
ing my neighbors how 1 shall run my
business.
Through courtesy will answer Mr..
Hills little note and give him credit
for busting the ice trust. 1t was a
generous act in him, but he Is noted
for being kind hearted and very gen.
erous. Why he will give any one that
comes along the use of his mill and all
he asks in pay is little repair work,
Say-putting some new Stats on tho
water wheel, repairing the dam, put
ting in new floors and shingling the
roof. "Just some little thing, you
know, so 1 can grind little feed for
myself"
Then if he isn't busy in the mill Mr..
Hill is perfectly willing he should
help in the hay field. Mr.. Hill can
well afford to grind for five cents
sack. Don't blame him for holding
out inducements, he has some hogs to
feed; l don't keep any.
In regard to ice-I know my ice is
far superior to his or any one else s.
1t is wanted by rich and poor, young
and old. Why they will fight for it
sit up nights and talk about it's mer-
its. People that have never used ice
before want it bad now.
They are bound to have my ice and
won't have any other and 1 have re-
duced the price of this valuable ice so
1T is within the reach of all.
Why, have heard it rumored thar
ice-water would be more popular this
year than Milwaukee beer.

A Letter from D. w. Howard

Editor PLAIN DEALER:
l thought l would write and1et Won
know what l have seen and Observed.
| left home the 2Sth of December and
came to st. Paul, where stayed one
week visiting friends and relatives.
Had very pleasant time; called on
Archbishop Ireland and had half an
hours talk with him. He is a very
fine gentleman to talk to. also cal
led on Father Cleary of Minneapolis.
BE is a great temperance man and I
heard him preach two sermons which
were worth listening to. went from
st. Paul to Hancock, Stevens county,
staying there three days. They have
some very fine land there and it Is
good place for man to invest money
and geta home. | came to CrookSton
Thursday January the 10, and took j.
f. Creamer and wife by surprise. l
am being royalty entertained.
This is quite business place al
though it is dull now after the holi-
days. l have been out in the coun-
try some and like it better than l ex,
pected. The farmers here have not
the vim and enterprise they have
around Cresoo. Go where you may
you win not ind more enterprising
people than the Iowa people. The
weather here is very pleasant, still
| there are a great MANY complaininp of
the grip. l am somewhat affected
myself. l will take several drives out
in the country for the next two or
three days and see what l car, as you
are aware l cannot content myself in
lounging around. Will be home the
last OF this week if nothing happens.
Respectfully,
d. w. HOWARD.
