MILL SHOWS TO ADVAh TAGE
Addition to Eagle Mill Improves
= its Appearance.
New Building 60x42 on the Ground
and Five Stories.

Interesting Gossip From the Office.
Force OF the Mill.
| Passing along Minnesota street and
| looking down lst North street the first
thing that attracts the eye Of the per-
son is the unfamiliar new building
that has been erected by the Eagle
Mill Co. During the past week the
addition to the mill has reached the
top story and has been covered. Until
this was erected it was hardly posi-
BILE to see the big mill, looking down
this street from Minnesota, and a
number of people have been noticed
to stop and look at the new structure
since it has taken on proportions.
The new building is 60x42 feet and
is as high as the highest part of the
old mill, and the low parts of the old
mill will be raised to a uniform
heigth so that.the millwhen completed
will be of one heighth, making a very
imposing structure that will be verit-
able BEEHIVE of industry, turning out
in the neighborhood of 5000 barrels of
flour daily
The new part is to be installed with
a superior grade Of machinery designed
to make a special brand of -four for
fo Ia. fh1-& 81
that is a little better than anything
that is produced in the state at present
and will bring the top price in the
market The completion OF this addi.
tion to the already large plant will
make it one of the very best in the state.
From present indications the con-.
tract will be completed before the 1st
of November and will be ready for the.
installation of the machinery by that
that time, and by the first of the new.
year the mill will be turning out the
new product. The latest kinds of
packing machines will be placed in the.
new building, which will automatically
pack and tie the sacks Of -four.
There is certain amount of local
pride in the prosperity Of the mills of
! the city and particularly the Eagle
mill, which in the past few years has
expended many thousands of dollars
in the perfection of the plant and gives
employment to a large force Of people.
The mills of the city as we'll as all
of the mills of the state were anxious
for the nomination Of a man for the
office of congressman in the place Of
Mr.. McCleary, who would work for the
reduction of the tariff on wheat, for it
is getting to be an impossibility to get
/ a sufficient amount of grain in this part
of the country produced in the vicinity
OF this state to supply the mills, and
for that reason there is reason to be-
lieve that the milling interests of the
state will be directed toward the cleo
tion of Mr.. Hammond in this district,
who represents the revision of the
tariff ideas that were advocated by Mr..
Gutterson.
