]. w. Sweeny, superintendent of the
Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing
company, left Saturday evening for
Pittsburg, Pa, having been called east
on business connected with the further
extension of the mica industry by the
company in and around Custer. The
future prospects of the mica industry
looks very bright, and in all probability
the Westinghouse company will again
be working in full swing long before
snow flies. Mr.. Sweeny will put in his
time to the best advant tage while away.

Rapid City Journal: c. Thomson say 6
1t amuses him to hear people talk about
going out to Oregon to raise apples.
They 60 out there and pay from $500 to
81 900 per acre and 60 into the apple
raising business, thinking they have
found just what they have long wanted.
They do not realize that they left land
selling from $40 to $50 an acre that will
raise as good apples as the high priced
land, If given the same kind of care.
There they spray their apple trees, build
smudges to keep away the frost, and
keep on an average of one man to every
five acres. Here he has three men to
seventy-five acres, and they have time
to do some other work. Then in Ore
gon, Idaho and other places in the north
west they hunt a market, while here
there is market at their doors.

Last Saturday c. Y. Axes, the we'll
driller, completed a seventy foot well
for Pat Wright, principally through
granite and quartzite. At a depth OF
sixty-six feet a strong flow of water was
struck which, judging from its tempera-
ture, Pat says, may have come from the
neighborhood of the iceberg that collid-
ed with the Titanic. As it was the last
we'll the old man ever intends to drill
he did it in good shape, though, he says,
it was the hardest proposition he ever
struck. If he had known that it was a
hard proposition it is doubtful if he
would have undertaken to do the work.
The old man likes to test his steel once
in a while.

Hot Springs Star: The automobile
owners will be pleased to know that the
road to Custer and Sylvan Lake is now
in good condition and that good time
can now be made over this highway
without strain to a car or discomfort to
the occupants. Early this week T. j.
Carroll, of Sylvan Lake and other public
spirited automobile owners of Custer
took crews to the rocky hill this side of
Pringle and by digging, blasting and fill
ing repaired those portions of the road
which have made this trip dreaded by
drivers. ]. J. March was over there this
week and says it is in nice shape. Con-
siderable work has already been done
between Pringle and Custer and there
are said to be stretches where twenty to
twenty-five miles an hour are easily
made. This will cause much more traf.
fic back and forth between here and
Custer.

CENTRAL ROUTE BEST
Pringle Road in Good Shape. I'm
proving Road Between Custer,
Pringle and Hot Springs.

Pioneer-Times: The Boosters trip
from Hot Springs north to Deadwood
has convinced them that the central
route is the one that should be adopted
for automobile travel between Dead
wood and Hot Springs. With the ex-
ception of about four miles between
Sheridan and Pactola, the roads are
most servicable and no great expendi-
ture will be required to put them in the
best condition. The four bad miles re-
ferred to have already been provided
for, as the commissioners of Pennington
county have let contract for the con-
struction of the best kind of a mountain
highway at that point.
