On Thursday some of the rigs began
threshing and everything went we'll

Will Reopen Steam Laundry.

will Reopen Steam Laundry.
After having remained shut down
Tor about two months, the Willmar
Steam Laundry will reopen for busi-
ness on next Monday in its new quar-
ters, under the management of Olof
Ferring The history of the Wlllmar
steam laundry is q very complicated
one, It having been tossed up and
down upon the sea of an uncertain ex-
istenoe for q long time. But under
the new management the Willmar
steam. laundry will surely prosper.
Nothing has been spared to make the
new enterprise as adequate and up-to-
date as any found on this side of the
Twin cities. First of all the new man
ager found that the old location near
the Opera house was not desirable,
and he finally leased the Salvation
Army Hall on Third street and moved
all the machinery that could be used
to that place. Finding that he him
self was not enough experienced in all
the details connected with starting and
operating laundry, he secured the
services of Mr.. Sam Collyer, an ex-
perienced laundry man from Mime
apolis and q former proprietor of the
we'll known 'Berlin" laundry located
in that city. With Mr.. Collyer sup
erintending the work, all new machin-
cry has been put in. Remembering
the failure of his predecessors to make
the laundry paying institution, Mr..
Ferring has been careful in selecting
nothing but the best kind of machinery
and only experienced workers will be
employed. Willmar ought to be just
the right place for such an enterprise
being both centrally located and hav-
ing easy railroad connections with the
surrounding towns and villages. Mr..
Ferring is q man whose reputation as
q business man has been thoroughly
established, and We entertain no doubts
as to the success of his new UNDER
taking.
