new MILL TO Be
FINISHED SOON
$4,000 FLOUR MILL OF CRAVING
MILLING co. TO BE OPENED.
The Machinery::Has Been Delayed for
Some Time, But to be Ready
for Business in Month.

The Craven Milling company
has been experiencing some de-
lays in getting their machinery,
but it is now certain that it will
be here this week, when large
force of men will be put to work
in locating the machines and
getting things in order.
The Craven mill is a building
30x50, two.stories high, with a
store room 30x50, one story high
in which there are now $1,000
bushelssof wheat ready for the
mill. Apart from this building
is the engine room 1Sx30, one
story high, in which is located
one of the finest engines in the
west. II burns crude oil, which
is much cheaper than gasoline
and produces greater power.
The machinery of the Craven
mill will be the finest in the west.
1t is an absolutely new thing and
can do all kinds of work. The
primary object of the mill will
be the making of flour but its
activities will not be limited alone
to that. Corn, Milo, Kaffir.
buckwheat and rye will also be
handled. In fact they are SO
fixed as to be able to handle any
kind of health foods, which will
be an exceptional record.
All the grinding, separating
and purifying will be done on
the first floor directly under the
eye of the miller. Mr.. Craven
says it will be one of the cleanest
mills that could be found any
where. Each machine has its
own fan and dust collector, so
that the dust will not be blown
out of doors, nor nothing 90 to
waste.
The Craven mill when complete
will cost $50, 1000. Those owning
it are, j. A. Edwards, ]. n.
Black and J. f. Craven. Mr..
Craven will have charge of the
mill. He is Il practical miller,
having been in this business for
40 years. He comes here from
Dalhart, and is a native of Ar k
ansas. He is very pleasant
man to meet, and takes great
interest in explaining the mill.
Mr.. Craven says that they are
going to fan all seed wheat
brought to them free of charge.
He urges the farmers to take
advantage of this opportunity.
for in so doing great benefit is
derived by the farmer.
This is another enterprise of
which Canyon can feel proud
and which each resident ought
to take a lively interest.

COUNTRY EXCELLENT
SAY THE VISITORS
DURING PAST WEEK MANY LAND
MEN HERE TO INVESTIGATE.
Randall County is Said 10 Have a
Better Show This Fall than Any
OF the Reliable States.

Last week was excursion week
and many men who have land
here, took advantage of the low
rates to see their possessions.
Several called at the News office
and expressed their surprise at
seeing everything in such good
condition while all through the
crops are in bad condition. From
all sections of the country came
the same reply-"Corn will not
make half a crop. 1t is very
discouraging indeed On the
other hand, all united in saying
We never expected To find
crops in half so good condition
as they are. Randall county
looks better than we have ever
seen it. "
A. a. Sans, of lndianola, Ia,
who owns land south of town
expressed himself as well pleased
with the outlook. Pastures are
all gone, says Mr.. Sans speak
ing of the north. The corn will
only make half a crop. 1t has
been very hot and dry during all
the summer. =
Geo. +. Thede, of Durant,
Iowa, Henry W. Thede, of Sun
bury, Iowa, and Wm. Broders,
of Stockton. Iowa, called at the
News office, and expressed
their pleasure at finding every
thing in such prosperous condi-
ton. They report the same
conditions as did Mr.. Sans.
All these men own land here.
Reports from Kansas show
that the corn crop will be a
failure. A month ago the corn
in south and east Kansas was in
very bad condition and the diff.
ferent visitors this week say it
is gone now.
The Dakotas have been struck,
so callers inform us. There
was no wheat, and this is the
one staple crop for that country,
Taken all in all, Randall coun.
ty seems to be more fortunate
this year than most of the other
states which have been termed
absolutely reliable. Kaffir corn
and milo maize are in the best of
condition. Alfalfa has pros
pered well. Millet and broom
corn can not be beaten. There
is sure to be bountiful harvest
this fall.
