'BOT nN[AU TO AGAIN
HAVE flour Mill

~ 3 AI%p ilipC1CoI w lAtC EtLlL6I6 W
Bottineau and farmer patrons Of tIi.
city is the announcement Of the newly
organized milling firm Of Krogen ant
Hanger, who have purchased thu
Woodward Flour Mill Of this city
The local member of this firm, Mr.
q. j. Krogen needs no introduction ts
the public, having been born anG
reared on his fathers farm north 81
Carbury, and who later On became the
proprietor of the Bottineau Welding
Works ii Bottineau. Mr.. Krogen is an
energetic young man who will do his
part to promote the milling business
here Mr.. Jacob Hauger, the other
member Of the firm is from Anoka
Minnesota, He has been manager OF
the Farmers Buying and Shipping
Association Of Anoka for three years
and was three years over seas with
the American Army. Mr.. hangers
association with the Buyers and Ship
per's Association bespeaks for him
the confidence Of the Anoka Mime
sofa farmers in his ability and hon
esty.
It's the purpose Of this firm to do
custom grinding of flour, feed grind
ing and to handle feed and seeds.
i For several years Bottineau has
felt the great need of a good flour
mill and Bottineau farmer patrons
have been forced to haul their grain
TO Westhope and Lansford to have it
milled, or else buy their flour out
right from merchants here. At the
present time not even feed grinding
can be obtained here. This situation
was looked upon as crime by the
business interests Of Bottineau and as
something entirely lacking by farmer
patrons. So, in view of this situation
the Bottineau Commercial Club MEM
bers have taken an active interest in
trying to revive the milling industry,
and have repeatedly debated the prop
osition at their meetings until finally,
through continual boosting, Mr.. Kro-
gen became interested to the extent
Of investigating the matter and later
on by investing his money in the en-
terprise. So the revival Of the mill
ing industry here can be said to be
the result Of a just demand of both
farmers and business men, or a sort
of community of interest whereby the
farmers will be enabled to have their
grain ground for feed or flour near
home, and the business man will bene-
fit by an increased trading territory.
An experienced Miller will be Sc
cured, and the purpose will be to make
the best of flour and thereby merit
the patronage of the entire commun-
ity. Farmers who have wheat for
milling should hold it until the Botti-
neau Mill is in operation and give it
a try out. The success of this venture
will depend largely ON the service and
quality of its product so everybody
get behind and boost and give it a fair
and square trial. 1s.s .5.:s.z ~ 3 2: q u
The mill is equipped with standard
mill machinery, and with the addition
of a few extra repairs required will
be ready for operation by April first.
Watch for later announcements. +

New York, Jan. 5.-Confusing ad-
