Indications at present point to
the erection OF more concrete
buildings in Roman in the future
than frame structures. Con-
crete Or fire proof buildings
would reduce insurance to a min

every way. Besides the town
would present a more substantial
appearance. 1t is to be hoped
the day OF frame building con-
struction in Roman has passed.

What is believed to be the
highest price ever paid for wheat
in Minneapolis was recorded last
week, when the Woodward New
house company sold a carload of
Montana new crop No. hard
spring wheat to John Mcleod at
ST. a bushel. The wheat was
raised near Joliet, Montana, and
was brought in by the Northern
Pacific railway. The wheat COM
manded a 10-cent premium over
the prices for the day, due to the
scarcity of good seed wheat for
next years crop. Joliet is on

The hook and line fishing still proves
to be good and several Of our wise heads

course. we give you this and you can
draw conclusions to suit yourself.
