A Splendid New Enterprise For Devils
Lake.

A Splendid New Enterprise Fol- Devils
L. r. Bingham & Son, of Ester
vile, Iowa, have purchased from J.
NJ. Hanson the Devils Lake roller
mills and will at once proceed to turn
the plant into a first class institution.
The present mill building is to be en-
larged, additional grain storage room
provided, and a new Corliss engine
installed. Mr.. l.. L. Bingham will
take personal charge of the business,
in fact has already done SO.
This change means much for the
city of Devils Lake and the farmers
Of this entire section. Without the
slightest disparagement to the former
manages of the mill, it is fair to say
for the present owners, that there will
be a material improvement all along
the various lines of milling. Dealers
can depend on being supplied with
flour at all times of the year. Farm
ers can always rely on getting the
very higest market price for their
wheat, and the mill will be in readi-
ness to attend to custom grinding at
all seasons of the year. Mr.. Bing-
ham bears the reputation of being not
only good financially, but is a man of
exemplary character in all respects.
We bespeak for the new enterprise
abundance of success.
