At receivers sale held in Drayt ton
the mill of the Drayton Milling company
was bid in by the Northern State bank
of Grand Forks. There is mortgage
of g, 300 on the property, and a judy
ment in favor of the Northern State
bank for $4,000. There would be no
equity for any othe, person and so no
bids were put in save that of the bank.
Later on some arrangements will pro-
badly be made to open the mill. Under
careful management it is believed it
could be made paying proposition.
