fund for the famine sufferers as has
Hudson.

We want to do your feed grinding.
We have a sharp set of rolls and
can turn out grist in very short
space of time. New settlers will be
surprised to learn that when you
come to our mill with 20 sacks of
oats to grind you will need 20 emp
ties, making about double the bulk
you bring. We buy all kinds of
grain, ba1ed hay and straw, and
keep constantly on hand the Mime
apolis Flour, Bran and Shorts. Our
reputation for fair dealing should
assure you that we deserve your
patronage. CASCADE MILLS.

The Art Exhibit at the Congrega-
tiona1 church will close tomorrow
evening. The patronage throughout
the week has been fairly good and
the evening talks by Mr.. Mcintosh

attendants. The proceeds will go

lures bought year ago for our pub
lie schools. The exhibit given
year ago was owned by an eastern
concern but this one is owned by
Mr.. Mcintosh personally. He is
now devoting his entire time to this
class of work and is doing nicely
with it. His many friends are
pleased 10 have him with them again
even if only for a short time
