Would Improve Gardea
Lots Ia the City
LOCAL BUSINESS MAN SUGGESTS
USING VACANT LOTS FOR GAR
OENS RATHER THAN TIN
CANS

TO use lots which have heretofore
been dumping grounds for tin cans
is the suggestion of w. Il. Craswell il.
a letter to Otto Zetterberg, secretary
of the Commercial Club The matter
will be brought up and discussed at
the next meeting of the directors Of!
the club next Wednesday. Follow
ing is the text Of Mr. Craswell's let.
ter:
Valley City, n. d., May 8, 1913.
Reading in the Minneapolis papers
about their gardening OH vacant lots
in that city, has made it occur to me
that something along that line could
be done in Valley City, and that the
Commercial Club is the proper or
ganiza1ion to take The matter up.
There are any number OF vacant
lots here that are made 4 dumping
ground for tin cans, and allowed to
raise a crop of big weeds each year,
that could be utilized, and there are
\ great number of people that would
be very glad and willing to use these
lots for gardens.
If anything is to be done along thai
line this year, it will have to be done
at once, and it may seem little late
to start it this spring, but l don't
think it is, for gardens that are now,
planted are not doing anything, the
weather is so cool.
Such movement would transform
a good many lots that are now eye
sores to beauty spots, and would do,a
great deal toward improving the gen
eral appearance of the city. How do
you feel about it?
Yours truly,
w. r. CRASWELL.

ey in the business. The country was
flooded with cheap -four and the COM.
pany faced the problem of curtailins
it's business, or finding some method
of securing a greater price for what ii
believed TO be the best -four in the
world.
With the one little country mill at
Valley City, the company decided to
enter the milling business in earnest,
with a fved purpose of making a high
grade of -four than had yet been pro-
duced, and offer it to the -four con-
sumers of the world at a price high
enough to permit it's continuous pro
duction. .., e- .....,...
The success of the project was ill-
stantaneous, and today twelve great
mills, and 80 elevators mark the good
Judgment of the Men Behind.
The officers of the company today
are, p. p. Ellis, president; vice presi-
dents, H. S. Helm, Arthur Miller and
H. R. Lyon; treasurer w. G. Helm,
secretary G.. G. Ireys. I
Valley City is and always will be
the home of Russell Miller Milling.
The local mill today has capacity Of
1900 barrels of -four daily, employs at
present IS men in various capacities,
and has an investment of many thous-
ands of dollars. Every day of every
month of the year these men with
their. families are spending money in
Valley City for which the industry is
directly responsible. From five to
six thousand dollars each month is
paid to the men, and practically every
dollar of it is spent in one way or an
other in Valley City.
Isn't the Russell Miller Milling Com
pany a pretty good concern to talk
about and boost for? Isn't it worth
the while of every loyal man and wo-
man in Valley City to spread broad,
cast the story of what Valley and
North Dakota have helped one bust
ness to accomplish when honestly
established and honestly promoted.

Russell. Miller Milling Company
"OCCIDENT is NO ACCIDENT .

In the fall of 1879 thirty four years
ago, John Russell, better known as
Uncle john" came to North Dakota
) seeking investments in land. His
home was in southern Minnesota, but
the pioneers instinct told him, after a
brief trip through what was then the
territory of Dakota, that fortunes
hitherto undreamed of outside of the
eastern coast states We're awaiting the
enterprise Of those men who had the
courage and would pin their faith to
the 'tillers Of the soil and to the land
which is in future years to become the
bread basket of the world"
He decided to make his home at
Valley City, and purchased small 25
barrel water power -four mill on what
| is now the site of the modern 1900
barrel plant of the Russell Miller COM
pany.
Enlisted with him in the enterprise
was Arthur Miller, who was at that
time and is to this day the practical
miller of the firm. The partnership
started at that time with capitaliza-
tion of $4,000 serving what was prac-
tically a local trade. Today the part
nership has developed into a corpora
tion with capitalization of two
and one-half millions of dollars, with
twelve mills located between Minnea-
polls and Billings, Montana, market
upon which the sun literally never
sets" and an output of more than 10,
600 barrels daily.
Truly, the growth of Occident has
been no Accident.

Up the river they would go,
Oh, on, Oh, on.

o.
A. R. Miller, champion canoeist, and
Flake Crest, Man Friday. have set a
Erecord for early bathing that will
mot be equaled for decades They
have demonstrated that one may
brave the chill of an early May day,
the icy waters of the Sheyenne, and
bob up serenely, as after mid sum-
mer's bath.
Mr.. Miller and Mr.. Crest are both
fond of canoeing. The thrill of glid-
i ing over the waves in their light bark
propelled by a powerful motor, the
spray flying past them in clouds, and
their souls responding to springs en-
ticing call has appealed irresistibly
since the ice in the river broke up a
few weeks ago. ..
Saturday morning their trusty ca
noe was launched, and a few moments
later they sped along the banks Of
the Sheyenne. Their hearts beat like
trip hammers, as they shot around
one curve after another, while new
vistas of beauty burst upon their WIS.,
ion,, Perfumed zephyrs sighed thru
their hands and eyelashes, and soulful
bursts Of song carried their hearts
responses to the listening air.
Under the Northern Pacific railroad
bridge, a few inches under the wa
ter, are number of submerged piles
The piles We're not carried out with
the ice.
The canoe stopped in it's wild car
eer. Miller and Crest did not even
hesitate. They kept on travelling.
Three seconds later Mr.. Miller awoke
to a consciousness to find himself
taking Sitz bath seated on one of
the piles submerged about six inches.
Mr.. Crest, awaiting through the cir
cumambient atmosphere picked out a
soft spot in thirteen feet of water.
Swim ashore and get help yelled.

But I'm only wet from the waist
down, and you're soused all over
said the exploit.
Mr.. Miller's arguments and a threat
to shove Crest away from the pile it
he approached too near, finally pre-
vailed and after twenty minutes Of Of
maiden meditation Miller was taken
from his post of duty.
Neither Of the canoeisjs has suf-
fered seriously from his exposure.
