BUSINESS IS GOOD AT TWIN CITIES.

The writer made a trip out to
the twin cities of Ferdinand and
Steunenberg Saturday and found
things looking very good there.
Business was reported very fair
and the merchants all expect a
good trade this coming summer
and fall. At Ferdinand a new
hardware store is being opened
by H. A. Nau & Co. who have
disposed Of most Of their general
merchandise stock to other mer-
chants. They opened the new
line of goods this week and ex-
pect to develop a good trade
there in the course of time.
Quite a lot of their hardware has
already been received and more
is arriving daily. They will also
carry a complete line of farm
machinery in connection with
their hardware business.
At Steunenberg we found Geo.
A. Smith nicely located in his
large new hardware store and he
reported an excellent business
for this time of year, especially
in the machinery line, of which
he carries a large stock. Schuel-
ler Bros. also reported a nice
trade at their general store and
expect it to develope rapidly as
they have just got in a full line
of new goods for the spring and
summer trade.
In the building line very little
is being done at present at either
town but a number of improve
ments are being contemplated
and several new buildings will
probably be erected before the
summer passes.
