Emil F. Buergemeister, of Mil
waukee, left for the east Monday after
spending some days at the Oroville
copper mine, in which he holds con-
SIDERABLE interest. This is not his first
venture in mining propositions in this
part OF Okanogan county. He was con-
hected with claims near Nighthawk
twenty years ago. A pleasant gentle
man TO meet is Mr. Buergemeister /; nd
we trust that he will at last receive
well deserved reward for his conf
dence in Okanogan county mines
through the Oroville Copper company
and there is every reason to believe
That he will, as better mineral show
Ing is not to be found in the north
west.
The late hot weather has created a
boom in ice cream. Earlier in the
summer manufacturers and dealers 10
that soothing summer delicacy were
discouraged by the prevalence of cold
weather, that does not encourage the
consumption Of cold provender, but of
late it has been difficult to meet the
demand for frozen cream. The local
creamery has turned out great quanti-
ties of ice cream during July, and as
the local creamery makes the best ice
cream on the market, the territory
that the establishment is called upon
to supply is steadily growing The
creamery is a home industry worthy
of encouragement and it is a pleasure
to note that it's business is steadily
expanding.
Very often people who do not own
cars wish to make short trips in the
adjoining country, or even within the
town limits, which are quit extensive.
and hesitate on account of the long
walk. Now there is an easy remedy
for that walk if the public will only
take advantage of it. Two young lads
and gentlemenly and accommodating
lads they are, Glen Carrel and Joe
Ashby, have jitney auto for hire that
can be called for at any hour Of the
day and far into the night, and when
you call and use it you will be sur
prised at the moderate charges. This
jitney is something that is really need
ed in town, and the people should en-
courage the boys in their undertaking
by using it whenever the opportunity
is presented.
