Two meetings have ,been tentatively arranged-one at Sydney for the even ing of Tuesday and one at Falrview for Wednesday morning.

By the twentieth of this month the new elevator of the Montana Eastern Farmers' Elevator company, located just east of the Northern Pacific ice house In this city, will be ready to receive consgllnments of grain: It is conservatively estimated that at least 200,000 bushels of grain will be mar keted at this loint, for a starter. The elevator Is considered a model structure. Only one like it-at Groton, 1. D.-has been built from the, same set of iplans. George 8. Leonard, the manager, courteously explained its equipment and workings to an inquir-!I ing newspaper man. The structure is 79 feet high and has two direct shipplng spouts. Grain can be sent direct from the wagons to the ears if desired, hut everything will he placed In *bins and thoroughly cleaned before it ls shipped. That will I leave skreenings for local c.ronrmptlon, furnishlng excellent food. for chickens! and also for sheep. There are t*o. tniloading dump scales, which precipitate the grain directly Into pits of 140 'bushels each. PFrom these pits It is tdken by belt elevators and carried to the top of'the building, where It is separated into the 20 bins. . The easy 'capacity of the elevator Is 50,000 bushels daily. The two "legs," carrying the belt elevators, can each handle 3,000 bushlels hourly. A large freight carcan hbe loaded In 45 minutes. The 'Richardson automatlc weigher also has a capacity of 2,000 bushels per hour. Power Is furnished by two electric motors of 10 and 20 horse power, respectively. The large motor runs the legs; the smaller one operates a New Process cleaner, which will handle 1,000 bushels per hour without crowding It. Absolutely clean seed grain will be one of the company's features, and they are also installing an unloading apparatus for shipping in all kinds of feed, which will be wholesaled here.
