GROUSE.

A party of four prominent business
men, millionaires, from Michigan, ar
rived in Minot this week and are
spending fortnight here hunting the
festive grouse and duck. They are
making their headquarters at the Le-
land hotel. They brot along number

The party consists of Geo. L. Erwin,

MY. FalcOnef, OF Cne independently, 1ol
merly resided at Muskegon, and
knows personally several members of
the party.
They are highly elated over their
visit to our city. Mr.. Balbirnie stated
to an Independent reporter: eve have
concluded that Minot should have 3d.
900 people within ten years. You have
the greatest town for its size we were
ever in, a town with the most good
things in it,"
Asked as to how they happened to
come to this city for their outing, Mr..
Balbirnie said: "Mr. Munroe CORE
sponded with one of your local bank
ers regarding a likely place to hunt
chicken-prairie chicken-and he rec
commended Minot. We are having the
time of our lives"

Myers Brothers, of the Minot Steam
Laundry, have just installed a man.

tured by the American Laundry Ma

the Independent visited the plant and
the machine was demonstrated. 1t
runs with large electric motor, which
has four speeds, and seven girls are
kept busy putting in the sheets, tow
els, pillow slips and other fiat work,
and in receiving from the machine.
The new ironer more than doubles the
capacity Of the laundry and was made
necessary by the rapid increase in
business. The ironer weighs $4,000
pounds. The machine was installed at
a cost of several thousand dollars, but
Myers Bros. who have always kept
abreast of the times, now have with
out a doubt, the best equipped laundry
in the state. The ironer has four pad
ded rolls. each y inches in diameter.
The heating surface of the ironer is
$4,000 square inches. The fiat work
comes out ironcd perfectly, and with
a soft lustrous finish. The machine is
not dangerous to operate and runs as
smoothly as clock. The only ones
doing any '1kickirg" around the laun-
dry are the washers, who have very
hard time keeping up with the new
ironer.
Myers Bros. employ 80 people at
their plant. They have an investment
of nearly $4,000, which includes all of
the latest ironers for shirts, collars
and other classes Of laundry work.

a drier that turns like a huge churn,
keeping the materials nice and fluffy,
and getting rid of the lint. Shirts
are no longer ironed as in the old fash
Toned way, but are rendered smooth
and glossy by pressure.
Three people are employed in the
sorting room and it is no small task
separating the immense lot of work.
Myers Bros. deserve much credit for
giving Minot such a plant.

PEAL FROM JUDGE LEIGH
TONS DECISION.

The County Commissioners of Ward
county have authorized States Attor-
ney Nestos to begin an action of ap-

in regard to the Better Farming move
ment.

grounds that the petition presented
by Grant Westlake and others in 1913
for the levy was still in effect. The
decision of the supreme court will be
awaited with interest.

John Fahey was a whole-souled gen.

biggest hearted men we have ever
met. He was a prominent Democrat
and while he might have secured posi-
tons of honor and trust thru that or
ganization, he always stepped aside
to let someone less deserving fill the
place.
Mr.. Fahey's mother, who made her
home with her son in this city for
years, died in March. We have never
seen a son more devoted to his moth

MAKING GREAT SHOWING

"North Dakota is certainly showing
the people of the United States what
it is capable Of" says John Van AL
styne of Grand Forks, who has just
returned from San Francisco, where
he was engaged during the summer on
the staff at the North Dakota build
ing at the exposition.
"The states exhibit has pleased and
surprised thousands, both for their
range and the apparent misconception
that prevails with reference to condi-
lions in the state.
"One would think, judging from
many of the questions, that this was
still frontier state, so little knowl-
edge have some people Of our develop
ment."
Mr.. Van Alstine is firm in the belief
that the North Dakota display at the
San Francisco fair has been we'll
worth all that it is costing.
