dence seen every hand Of prosperity unahounded in
the town and country, in the uplands the wide
panse of lowlands. New barns and greater ones new
graneries and garages and commodious houses
are to be everywhere Careful inquiry Of those who
travel over the county and those also selling building
teria convinced that newstructres
have been buin the county this yea.. The greatest
amount Of building perhaps has been the Boyer Valley
Logan claims 40 new structures most Of them homes
Woodbne and Dunlap and all the country between them
shares like Improvement Mondain has added several

besides their fine school houses in which the people
seem to be taking special delight.

CITY STREET IMPROVEMENTS
In no other year in the histo-
ry of the town have so many
street Improvements been I'M
dertaken and completed as in
the past year. For instance,
some $4,000 we're expended on
the Lincoln Highway within
the city limits GU east Erie by
bringing it to grade by cuts
ard fills. The Lincoln High
way south from town has also
received several thousand dol
lars worth of improvements in.
Guiding two steel bridges. A
new steelbridge costing. SIS, 600
was laid over the Willow canal
on West Erie. and the old one
transported two miles east and
laid over the Seaton lateral to
the Boyer Sub-canal.
GRADING AND PAVING
The work OF grading and lay
ing four miles OF paving thru
the business portion OF the
town however, stands as the
principal municipal improve
ment Of the year. Over $780,
600 was expended on this job,
and even tho the cost was in
some cases almost beyond the
limit, the people are agreed
that it is we'll worth the cost
for sanitary and commercial
reasons. And already, we un-
derstand plans are being laid
for as much more work in that
line next season..
THE VALLEY MILLS
Being our principal manifac-
turing plant is furnishing the
community with so important a
portion of food supply in this
entire community is tit for
special attention in tins issue
of the News. A good mill is an
indispensable adjunct to any

ity. That ours is a good mill,
turning out a product equal to
the best is shown by the i'ncrcas-
ing demand for "Cream of the
Valley, by all the neighboring
towns within a radius of 10 to
100 miles of US. Council Bluffs
merchants advertise it as a
'.dour without an equal in do
mestic uses" The part these
mills pay in the prosperity of
this locality is shown by the
fact that they buy annually at
least 100, 600 bushels Of wheat
besides an enormous amount Of
corn, oats, rye and barley.
Their output Of -four is In ex.,
cess of 25, O0.barrels annually.
