BIGGER TYPE OF ENGINE.
They Are Being Put Into Use In
Southern Minnesota.


Wells, Mimi, August THE first
locomotive, of a bigger type, to be
used on the Wells division Of the
Milwaukee railroad, made its first
run last Monday from Wells. The
results were most satisfactory.
After working ten hours a day,
eight hours straight time and two
hours over time, section men will re-
ceive less from the raise in pay re-
Gently given them then they had
before the new rates went into ef-
feet, according to statements Of rail
road men. This is because the men
will be allowed to work only eight
hours per day, except in localities
where there is an exceptional labor
shortage.
The welding cutting machine of
the Milwaukee railroad was put in
to service at Wells recently. The
machine is run by gasoline motor.
