a position are not numbered among
the really successful farmers OF their

modern machinery.
This little city already has two grain
elevators, those OF the Occident Ele-
vator Co, of MINNEAPOLIS and the
Dawson Grain Co., both Of which have
been doing an immense business since
their recent installation. Another big
grain structure is to be built at once.
The roads in all directions are fairly
dotted with grain haulers.
The principal places Of business
which have been established up to date
are a big general merchandise store,
postofflce, cafe, meat market, harness
shop, shoe mandatory, garage, livery
stable and Missouri River depot.

bank, hotel hardware store, dry goods
store, drug store, blacksmith shop, as
well as for all kinds of professional
business, such a. doctor, lawyer, etc.

moter of Stipek, is one of the big,
substantial citizens of the community
in which he lives, and his efforts for
the locality will be remembered pleas
