Brooks Aeroplane Co. was here this
week assisting D. G.. Dorman to put
his aeroplane together. The ma.
chine baybe taken out today, and with
in few days, Mr.. Dorman is expected
to fly.
"a beginner wants to 60 very eau
tiously and not try to learn too quick
ly," Mr.. Armstrong said. AT our
school Of instruction we allow the men
to practice but fifteen minutes in the
morning and as long in the afternoon.
The first few days they merely run
the machine along the ground, to be-
come thoroly familiar with every
feature of it. so that they can manipu-
late it without thinking. Then they
are ready for the grass cutting stage,
just swimming the ground for several
hundred feet. After five days of this
they can go up"

been run to some of the other sites
that had been offered.
The work on the buildings will be

T. v. Bailey tells of casting his
first ballot for Abraham Lincoln or

present were Mrs. Francis ]. Nc.

visiting her daughter, Mrs. Dickinson.
The exercises at the opera house in
the afternoon were under the auspices
Of the Women's Relief Corps. The
theatre was crowded and the services
were most impressive. The program
opened with selections by the Minot
High school orchestra. The invoca-
ton was given by Rev. Nicolay NIL
sen. melvin Johnson delivered the
famous Gettysburg address with deep
est sympathy and feeling. The Har-
mony male quartette sung in their
usual effective manner. The flag drill
by the boys and girls under the direc-
ton of Mrs. WEIGH was a distinct
feature OF the exercise. Miss Miller
gave reading which was most i'm.
pressive. Several of the old soldiers
related their experiences in the great
struggle between the North and the
South and brought forth many details
of fierce battles in which thousands
died so that the Union might live. The
audience joined in singing America
and Rev. Erickson pronounced the
Lenediction.
Hon. F. B. Lambert was the orator
of the day and delivered a most elo-
quent address. His was most fit
ting tribute to the men who so nobly
fought and died for their country. He
reviewed the history of the strife
which ended with the surrender of
Lee and the freedom of the slaves ana
the uniting of the blue and the gray
into one great nation again. He
made a plea for the perpetuation OF
memorial day and said that the GUS
tom was one in which all should Join
to pay homage to those who have
departed, whether they have fallen
during peace or war. Mr.. Lambert's
address was splendid one and made
deep impression on all who heard
it,

Dry Tuesday afternoon.
At cost of $500 this freezer was
installed and with it. 70 gallons Of
cream can be frozen each hour. The
cream is double strained after which
it is poured into the feeder at one
end of the freezer. 1t flows from this
continually into the freezer and at the
other end. there is a continual stream
OF ice cream into the big cans. The
cream does not touch the hands from
the time 1t leaves the cream can till
it is a manufactured 'roduct. The
cream passes around \ set OF hollow
discs thru which ice cold brine 10
run continually from the brine tank
adjoining. BY ths time t1o cream
makes tho journey around these discs
which takes less than i've minutes, Il

another like it in the state, for it has

This factory is equipped - we'll -
any in the state, and a very large
business has been worked up. The
old freezer capable of freezing 30
gallons an hour has been retained, to
be used in case Of q rush. Storage
tanks hold 500 sallons of cream.

is used during q portion OF the weob
ard about thousand pounds OF choice
butter is made weekly.
The cans are kept scrupuiously
clean First boiling water is poured
into them, then ice cJld water, after
which they are steamed. A ten horse
power boiler was installed this season.
Much of the cream used by the COM
pany is hauled in from the country

One does not hove any idea what
an equipment is necessary to conduct

visits the plant. For instance $4,000
is tied up the tubs alone.
This factory is putting out a
smoother and better article this year
than ever before and there is no rea-
son why the business Will not keep on
increasing at rapid rate.
