We have been struggling along
in this community in the hope OF
securing the development Of the
Of the surrounding
country, the securing Of a pay roll
for Hardin and the building up OF
our city In a permanent way.

through our united efforts, made
some progress along these lines.
now have approximately 100
persons. employed in the putting
in of the foundation of a beet
sugar factory, the cost of which
will be approximately one and
million dollars.
In the construction of this fac
tory it Is estimated that there
will be around 800 persons en-
ployed from the beginning Of
spring to the end of the process
ing campaign, which we hope will
last until the first of January,
1888. In connection with this de-
velopment we will have some
thirty five to fifty permanent en-
ployees. most of whom are heads
of families, and who will require
homes in which to live.
To arrange for the housing OF
these permanent residents will re-
quire the construction of at least

In order to take care of adj
ditional business, which will &C
crue as a result of the construc-
ton of a beet sugar factory here,
new business houses will have to
be provided, new and additional
clerks will be needed. It is no
doubt true that the permanent
payroll of the Hardin community
will be doubled during the next
year and a seasonable employ
ment for some two hundred fifty
to three hundred people will be
which will last for
some ninety to one hundred twen-

Many cities in the United States
have had an opportunity such as
we now have and through their
united efforts have joined to-
gether in a progressive, substan-
tial program, which has been re-
Elected through the history of that
community and many other COM

their opportunity come and leave
without taking any advantage of

normally produces much more
than enough wheat of a winter
and spring variety to make the
best brand of flour and sufficient
to operate a stable flour mill
throughout the year. At the pres
ent time the wheat is either pur-
chased by one of the elevators
at Billings or by the Sheridan
FIGURING Mills or sent to Duluth
or Minneapolis, and if one wish
es any of the bv-products of the
to have it returned to US. Such
an enterprise would employ q
number Of people and furnish
them year-around employment.
In connection with this develop
ment many new irrigated farms
will be developed in the upper
