BIG TOWN IN THE MAKING

Half way between Springfield and
Aberdeen, bounded on the east by
great low meadows and on the west
and north by broad plains, is the town
of Sterling with number of good
business houses. The Hotel Sterling
operated by Mrs. Carlos Partridge, a
large hardware store, operated by w.
W. Hayes, the Idaho Lumber COM
pany, with Clarence Ouantrell as
manager, the Golden Rule Mercantile
company, with a mammoth stock of
goods, blacksmith shop, pool hall,
a postoffice. a general merchandise
store, church and school house
make up the list of public buildings.
There is a potato cellar with capaci-
ty for about twenty carloads.
The largest store and the place
where the public and visitors to the
burg all gravitate is the Golden Rule
Mercantile company owned by five
local men, George Mclean, manager;
FL. w. Morrison, assistant manager
and secretary, and the three Johnson
brothers. Herbert, Ephriam and Jo-
seph. Their building is As x 90 feet
on the ground. has large basement.
a separate warehouse and a large
granary They carry all merchandise
but hardware, this being represented
in the very complete stock of w. W.
HAYES. They supply the settlers for
miles in all directions, and to the
westward the country is settling up
for a distance of about ffteen miles,
while to the northward they come
from far out toward the Big Butte,
which is over thirty miles distant.
They own all of their buildings and
grounds, do their own work, know
the needs of their customers, buy
carefully such goods as the people
want, and supply them at satisfactory
prices.
The community is engaged in
plans to erect an eight thousand dol
lar school house, and the Western
Milling & Elevator company are like
ly to put in one of their buildings
there to handle the big grain crop.
The settlers around Sterling are
fortunate in having large stocks of
goods in their town, and the business
houses are keeping abreast of the
times or ahead of the demands.

MOONLIGHT ON THE LAKE

Moonlight on the waters has devel-
oped many dreams, and men have
dreamed greater things than they
could carry out commercially at
Springfield in years gone by. Cold
springs at intervals along the end OF
the bench" have suggested making
reservoirs and lakes, and lakes have
suggested trout and wild ducks, and
these have enthused the sports. A
two-story hotel stands on the lake
shore overlooking the place where the
trains stop, and hunters and fisher
men are made welcome. Commercial
enterprises were undertaken with
more enthusiasm than hard judgment
and there were failures. For while
there was inconvenience in securing
goods and marketing things all
around Springfield, and then came
Thomas Blackburn and sons Carl and
Earl, and they faced the commercial
problems, They reasoned that the
business of a city block cannot be
done in a great scattered neighbor-
hood with only twenty-eight families
in it, and that when the population
increases rs per cent it is folly to ex-
pect to the volume of business to
double. SO they got down to brass
tacks" and opened business in a
building Is 60 with full basement
and the kind of goods the settlers
want. He secured postoffice service,
booked orders for coal and shipped a
car as often as orders totaled a car
lod. He acted as the agent for the
settlers without cent of profit, in
handling many carloads of this COM
modify, and If they neevr said
Thank you, Mr.. Blackburn, they
are intending to later on. They do all
their own work, have no expense for
window trimmers, street lighting,
street sprinkling, police officers and
city government, and hold down their
operating expenses to the least pos
sible. There are great meadows on
one side, great plains on the other,
fine hunting and fishing grounds at
hand, and Springfield is going to de-
velop into a famous resort. They have
Just completed a four-room brick

BY the way, all you automobile
drivers, there is garage at Spring

vulcanizing and general repairs. Il.
T. Shelman opened blacksmith shop
there when they had the original land
opening and barbecue, and he has
been succeeding ever since. Being
a machinist has has kept abreast OF
the times, and the times have de-
demanded garage and an automo-
bile for service and he has both.
