ERECTING CONCRETE ELEVATOR

Brandt & Stehman Will Soon Have a
Storage Capacity of 45,000 Bushels
Messrs, Brandt & Stehman, our lo-
cal millers, undoubtedly have one of
the best and most modern equipped
mills in this section, but have been
more or less crowded for storage on
account of their extensive business.
They decided to obviate the obstacle
by erecting a spacious grain elevator
and the work on same is now under
way.
A big concrete elevator
course of erection. When completed
it will be fifty feet high and will
have a storage capacity of 25,000
bushels. The interior will include
nine bins. With this new elevator
and their present elevators they will
have a combined storage capacity of
45,000 bushels,
The new elevator is being erected
on the east side of the mill and a
large straw and hay shed will be
erected in addition to the above.
Mr. J. Y. Kline of Florin has the
