MIDGET MILL MAY BE
ERECTED BY FARMERS
co. AT SOUTH HEART

Plans for a new midget flour and
feed mill to be located at South Heart
are in the making, and the project
will probably be under way within a
short time.
Annual meeting of the Farmers
Grain Co. of South Heart was held
recently, and matter of construction
of the mill discussed. The plan met
with hearty approval Of those pres
ent, and enough stock was subscribed
to justify further consideration of the
project. Grinding would be OF a Gus
tom basis, and the venture would be
a cooperative proposition, run as a
branch of the Farmers Grain Co.
Business has been splendid during
the fiscal year, and a substantial divi-
dend was declared by the concern at
the annual meeting.
Officers are: President, M. l.. Nc
Bride; vice, Thomas Ridl; secretary,
G. A.. Hosfield; treasurer, Andrew
Miller. Directors are Wenzel Jerges,
Joseph Oukrop, Dominick wanna,
