INCREASE OF MILLIONS
IN OUTLAY FOR BUILDING
January Operations Throughout
Country Compared With Busi-l.
ness in Previous Two Months.

Increase of $4,000. 900 in building
operations Throughout the country
for January over December opera
tions and an increase Of 100000, GOO
operations is noted in the s. w.
Straus & Co. review of conditions in
the building trades industry. The re-
view of countrywide conditions as
regards construction work says:
Actual building operations through
out the country have shown a marked
gain since the beginning of the year.
The total for January will show ap-
proximately s325.oo0,Oo0, or a gain of
s50.00O.00O over December and an in
crease of 500, 900. 900 over November.
There are many indications that these
gains in the volume of new construc-
tion will continue and that, unless
conditions undergo a radical change,

Whereas: A movement has been in

Whereas: by the installation of such

to greatly shorten the time of delivery
of mail originating ut and going to
points on the Great Northern Railroad
and other localities several hours ear
lier and would be of great benefit to
the rural and business interests of the

rapid mail service therefore
Be it Resolved: that the Billings

Board of Trustees, unanimously sup.
ports the plan of the Miles City Cham

BAD WEATHER SPOILS
POPLAR FAIR ATTENDANCE
Good Program During Poplar's Big
Fair Hampered to Great Extent
by Inclement Weather

Poplar's big Two-in One Fair, which
is combination of Indian Fair and
County Fair, was held at the reserva-
tion town last Thursday, Friday and
Saturday, but the program was cut
down to a great extent by unfavorable
weather. The rain continued all thru
Thursday and part of Friday.
Friday afternoon part of the pro-
gram was gone thru, but it was not un-
til Saturday that the business men of
Poplar were able to show what pains
they had taken to provide the visitors
with a good program.
The horse and auto races were un-
usually good, and "Chat" Jacobson,
the Minot aviator, performer brilliant
ly.
The exhibits were Of an unusually
high order, and some of the grains and
vegetables were the finest ever dis
played in the state.
The Fair closed Saturday evening
with a big barbecue of three roast
steers.

using three parachutes in the drop.
The discarding of two parachutes and
landing with the third is stunt which
few performers will undertake, and
this feature creates intense excitement.
j. w. Hessler in his Curtiss aero
plane will entertain each day with ev-
cry stunt known to aerial acrobats.
Mr.. Hessler is one of the most daring
birdmen in the business today.
In addition to these features there
will be farmers team races, Indian
races, potato races by cowboys and In
dians, relay races, boys pony races,
and cowgirls' running races.
The Glasgow band will furnish mus
ic during each afternoon of the Fair.
This is one of the best musical or
ganizations in the state, and the mem
bers are well prepared to furnish a
good program of music.
Many of the exhibits which took
prizes at the State Fair will be shown.
The most elaborate display Of corn,
sheath and small grains, vegetables,
root crops, fruits, preserves, ETC., ever
exhibited in Valley County will be on
the fair racks.
The art exhibits have been selected
with much care and patience and only
the best will be presented. Each de.
partment and exhibit has been sc
selected and placed that it will surpasa
any heretofore displayed.
Of especial interest to the children
is the Red Cross booth. The Health
Clown will hold forth each day and
have message for the younger Fair
visitors. In addition to the regular
Red Gross work, Mrs. Berry has ar
ranged for a large army tent to be
placed north of the booth and this
has been arranged for nursery. There
will be two attendants to take care of
the babies while the mothers visit the
Fair.

three days is as follows:

personalities in the republican party
of Montana but they should be laid
aside. All republicans who believe in
good government should vote for SEN
ator Dixon, whether they like him per-
sonally or not. Personal animosities
and factions should be relegated when
the welfare of Montana is at stake.
All democrats who believe in good
government should do the same. Mr..

represent the best interest of Montana
and to uphold Constitutional govern

pie. Mr.. Riddick consider preferable

is pleasant gentleman but cannot
stand his hackers and associates. In
my opinion, many of them represent
the very worst elements of society and
are bent on ruination, class warfare,
destruction of American principles, as
sault on vested rights, confscation Of

COOLING PLANT
FOR LOCAL HOTEL

The installation Of an automatic ice
less refrigeration plant has just been
completed in Mrs. Devines Gust Inn"
Hotel. The equipment was ordered
some time ago from the Isco Refriger-
alton Company and is something new
in Glasgow in the way of cooling
arrangement.
The operation is entirely automatic
and requires but little attention. The
temperature is held at all times to a
variation of only two degrees. The
cooling agent is hydrogen sulphide
compound which functions when forced
through coils of copper pipes. The
starting and stopping of the electric
pump is done by water pressure. The
water is turned on by a thermostat
and after starting the power is used
as a cooling medium for the pump CYL
inders.
Installation of the system was
made by the Glasgow Electric Shop.
