The Golden Valley Blacksmith
Shop, which is shown elsewhere,
was erected in the spring of 1906,
and since that time j. M. Cramer
has been its proprietor. Mr.. Cram
er started in a small way but has
been charging as fast as the busi-
ness will warrant and expects to
make still further improvements
soon. His shop is we'll equipped,
having power, a trip hammer,
emery wheel and a horse stock for
shooting unruly horses. He has an
expert horse sheer in his shop and
is assisted by an extra blacksmith
to help take care of the other
work. He is now contemplating
the installing of power drill and
a turning lathe. Mr.. Cramer upon
coming to Beach filed on a home
stead north Of town where his fam
lily resided until about a year ago
when he made proof. He now re-
sides in Beach, being among those
who have recently erected fine resi-
dences in the city.

started a lumber yard in connec-
tion with their general store and
continued to operate it until they
closed out last November when the
yard was purchased by R. Thomp-
son, of Blair, Wis. Mr.. Thomp-
son first came to Beach in. August,
1906, and bought a half section
farm a mile and half from town.
He became so interested in the
country, that he decided to make it
his home and Immediately put up
fine Improvements on his farm.
His son, A. R. Thompson, was
operating a lumber yard at Blair
and he decided to sell the yard
there and purchase the one from
the Beach Mercantile Co., which
was offered for sale. The deal was
made and as soon as their yard
was disposed Of in Wisconsin A.
R. Thompson came to Beach and
took charge of the yard here. The
Messrs. Thompson are experienced
lumbermen and have enjoyed a fine
business since locating at Beach.
A. R. soon after coming to Beach
took unto himself a wife and has
erected a residence and is now
among our substantial and per-
manent citizens.
