The Day County Auto and Supply
company are now temporarily using
their new garage OIL the corner of Main
street and Third avenue. Contractor
Edmunds took advantage of TIE fine
weather the past week and put in the
glass front and put the building in a
condition to be used until spring when
the building will be completed and the
interior arrangements will be according
to the latest ideas in garages and will
give to Webster one of the best in the
state. They now have many cars on
exhibition.
A deal was consumated Tuesday by
which the Reliance elevator in this city
was transferred to Ross E. Parks. Mr..
Parks is an experienced grain dealer
and informs us that the farmers will
receive the same treatment here during
his management of the house as they
have received from him at Lily during
his twenty years in the grain business
at that place. Just as soon as the
gentleman can make the necessary
arrangements he will move his family
to Webster. Herman Olson, we under
stand, will remain with the new man
agement. We predict there will be
something doing on the Webster market
when Mr. Parks assumes control of the
house.
With she sale of their house in this
city the Reliance company have closed
out its interests on the H. e. d. west of
Ortonville. And now comes the specu-
lation as to whether or not their travel
ing auditor p. j. Wagner will retain
his headquarters in this city or not.
Mr.. Wagner has been associated with
the grain business in this city for more
than 20 years and has worked up from
a common funky to travelling auditor
of one of the leading grain companies.
Has his home and has raised his family
here. Mr.. Wagner and his estimable
wife have large circle of friends in
this city who would deeply regret their
departure. Peters office has always
been a popular resort for all the boys on
the market and should he leave Webster
his place could never be filled, We
sincerely trust that his company will
deciue to build Peter an office that he
may still retain his headquarters in this
city where he has been a conspicuous
character for more than 20 years.
