a sugar factory. There has been an
annual increase In the acreage of su-
gar beets grown In the Fowler district.

irrigation facilities designate the

of the beet growing centers OF the

time has arrived when Il sufficient
acreage can be secured from the far
mers in this section of the country to
furnish factory with the raw mater

We would feel that we had performed an act that would work incalculable benefit to the people of this country if we could only impress upon them the full importance of having their deeds of transfer of real estate prop erly drawn and executed, and having same recorded.
 Many lawyers of this country are feasting upon the litiga- tion growing out of such errors and neglect upon the part of the land owners.
 Dick, Tom and Harry cannot draw up deeds properly. For one to do so he must have knowledge of the laws gov erning conveyances and he must be able to know when the premises that are desired to be conveyed are properly described.
 Dealing with land titles is a profession by itself.
 It does not cost any more to have a d @ e d or mortgage drawn right than it does to have one drawn wrong. It does not cost any more to have your instruments re- corded now than it does after a while.
 We can furnish you the best service obtainable in drawing up legal instruments as well as the best facilities for preparing abstracts of title.

FOUR BUILDINGS BURNED.

Thursday morning about 3:30 o'clock, the interior of T. E. Will sons store on the southwest corner of the square was discov- cred to be on fire. The flames were probably first seen by Jack Reeves, who spread the alarm as rapidly as possible till large crowd was. out and working he- roically to keep other bui ldings from being consumed.
 When MT. Reeves first saw the fire it seemed to be confined to the floor of the room occupied by MT. Wilson's store but before he got to the building the entire in side was a mass of flames. The fire quickly spread to T. M. Buell's produce store and from that to the small building occu- pied by Braswell's studio. The flames leaped across the street to Irwin Whittaker's office and quickly consumed that. For a while the Foster House was in great danger but the crowd worked heroically and kept it from catching on fire.
 A steady wind was blowing from the northwest, which car- ried regular sheet of burning coals for several hundred yards across vacant lots. It was fort unate, indeed, for the town that the wind was from that direction. If it had been from the southeast or the southwest, at least half of the business part of the town would have been de- troyed.
 The total loss amounts to about $6,900 and is distributed as follows: T. E. Wilson, three buildings and stock of merchan- disc S. 300, with $500 insurance T. M. Buell., produce stock, $1200, no insurance; Irwin Whit taker, real estate office, $500, no insurance; G. s. Firestone, jew elery stock and tools, S700, no insurance.
 This is the third time that T, M. Buell. has lost heavily by fire in the past five years, each time with no insurance, but he is not ,daunted in the least, but opened business in the Foster building on Maine street Thurs day Morning, the building recently vacated by the millinery establishment of Rogers & Cox MT. F'irestone has moved his jewelry and repair business into Jernig ans drug store. Mr w hittaker's new real estate of flee and the new location of Bras. wells studio are not yet located
