HELPS LEWISTOWN.
Cruise Sheep Company Comes to This
City for Supplies.

When the Argus announced last
week that the Cruise Sheep company
intended i'll the future to come to this
city for supplies, and to ship it's clip
this summer to Lewistown, instead of
to Billings, as has been the custom
heretofore, some doubted the correct
ness of the statement. but there does
not appear to be any room for even
doubt now The company last Fri
day purchased it's spring supplies in
this city, chiefly from the Power Mer-
camille company and the Montana
Hardware company, the total amount
ing to over 10000 pounds. This trade
means quite an increase in the total
volume of the business done here in
the course of the year, while the wool
shipments to be made early in the
summer will swell the receipts at the
warehouse considerably, the Cruise
company at F'latwillow, being one of
the largest outfits in Montana.
