The Farmers road will be push,
ed tothe boundary line just as
fast as il is,possible to do SO, and
President Kelly expects to reach
there by October 1. Construction
trains are now running to MELVILLE
About twenty elevators will be
built at points along the linenorth
of Starkweather. The Farmers;
elevator company now have three
under construction one at Web
ster. one at Garske and one at
MELVILLE. This company will
build eight other elevators along
the line. Some Of the others to be
built will be line concerns, and a
few will be individual affaits.
ss One of the best towns. on the
line will be Homestead. at the
point where the Farmers crosses
the 500. The 500 has laid out
the town of Egland at this point
also, the two towns being separa-
ted by a forty acre tract forty rods
wide. The Farmers will build a
fine depot at this town, and will
make it one of the best in the
state. An effort was made to; get
the two companies to join in plat
ting the town but the 500 refused.
President Kelly calculates that
the passenger traffic from this
point will be very heavy. Many
of the people reached by the 500
have been driving across country
to the larger towns to do their ira
ding, and as the 500 reaches no
large towns now, he thinks. these
people will naturally come to
Homestead, and then over the
Farmers to this city to make their
out of town purchases. There will
be splendid train service on the
Farmers, q regulea passenger run
ming each way daily, and a fast
freight with a passenger coach at
itached, running in the opposite
direction, thus giving two daily
trains each way.
