OumtmtM wit' asked by several clt-
teens who wanted to know something
In regard to the proposed improve-
tnents. ,
Amnnr thit was Andrew Mitchell,
-who asked why nothing had been done
In regard to the curbing and grading
of Canaan street. City' Engineer Frlck
gave his opinion that a thirty-two-foot
wide street would cause mucn iruuuie,
and that a narrower one. which would
answer all reoulrements would be bet
ter. The wider road would cause the
removal or many exienains hupwuim,
and much trouble would be caused
thereby.
. BtDhen Gllby was the next to ask
a question.. He wanted to know who
owned the Upper part of Laurel avenue,
and whether It had been accepted by
the city or not. . It Is almost Impassable
'and Unless something is done ne win
give notice to the next grand Jury.
. Several new resolutions were passed,
-among them being one instructing the
city engineer to open up ditches and
roUnd up Spring street, between
Erthth and Ninth avenues, also
to . cut down the tree and re
move the same from the corner of
.Sprlhg street and Scurry alley; that
the .city controller be authorized and
directed to transfer from the appro
priations for sidewalks to that of street
improvement the sum of $450; Instruct
ing city engineer to have brldse over
lLacket brook near rear of John Mc
Comb's shop, repaired.

TO OUR patrons:
Wushburn-Crosby Co. wish to assure their many pafa
rons thut they will this year hold to their usual custom
of milling STRICTLY oiu WHEAT until the new crop
Is fully cured. New -wheat is now upon the market, and
owing to the excessively dry weather many millers are
of the opinion that It is already cured, and in-nroDcr
condition for milling. WashburnCrosby Co. will take
no risks, and will allow the new wheat fully three
months to mature before grinding.
This careful attention to every detail of milling has
placed Wishburn-Crosby Co.'s flour far above othef
brands. . .
