IS MADISON BOOMING ?

If a steady growth and the
installation of new enterprises
means anything, then our town
is certainly on the boom" but
not such a boom as is generally
understood and applied to those
places of mushroom growth
which spring up in a night and
fade away in a few weeks.
The growth of this town fol-
the past several years has been
steady and sure, and right now
there is more building going on
than there has been for some
time. But we are not "blow
ING" about it. Indeed, this
writer is willing to wager that
a majority of the citizens OF the
town are ignorantof the amount
of building now in progress

complished, it is necessary tC
take a walk around the towr

are springing up in every sec
ton of the city, as well as those
which have been completed
