COMING TO BROOkINGS.

President Neil Stewart of the Brook
ings and Sioux Falls road, informs us
that he has been in correspondence
with two or three eastern manufacture
ing them to move to Brookings. He
reports very good success and that
two of the propositions can be landed
provided the business men of the city
do their part. Representatives of a
concern, which manufacture farm ma
chinery and automobiles, will be in
Brookings within few days to- look
over the field and if it is to their
liking the company will establish a
factory and distributing house here
This company is one Of the largest of
it's kind in the west. and it's coming
to Brookings would mean the addition
Ct about 200 families to the city.
The other factory Mr.. Stewart has
been corresponding with is a canning
factory. which is coming to some town
in the state and likes the outlook here
\ canning factory would be a good
thing for Brookings, as it would en-
poy large number of people besides
the farmers in this vicinity would get
considerable money for the raw mater
ial
Both of these concerns We're induced
to look toward Brookings because of
the building Of the Brookings and
Sioux Falls road as it would provide
them with the needed railroad facili-
ties to ship their product north and
south. We sincerely hope for the
good of the future of the city that a
concerted movement will be made at
once to secure these factories.
