son, who is away on his holidays.
Minutes of last regular attd special
meetings were read and approved.
Under the heading of finance commit-
tee report, the placing of gravel on
certain town streets was discussed.
Councillor I-Iudscn said he understood
that during the month $164 dog tax
had been collected and $400 tax ar-
rears. The streets committee, the pro-
perty committee, the fire and water
committee and the reliefcommittee
reported there was nothing special in
their departments,
The Wolverton Flour Mill situation
was dealt . with. Mayor Sutherland
had the deeds and insurance policies
which would be turned over officially
to the Treasurer the following day.
Insurance on the property was gone
into: $113,000 insurance,' made up of
two policies of $110,00.0 and $5,000 re-
spectively, in a millers' mutual in-
surance Cu., expire on Thursday of
this week, Messrs, Merton Reid and
E. C. Chatnbcrlain were present; a
motion was passed that local agents
he given an opportunity to tender on
he insurance, but the present rate
was so low- that it seemed unlikely
that a better rat e could beobtained
with the aril( idle at present. There
is no insurance on ,he office and
]welling. There are eight separate
isles on the property.
Councillor Bolton brought up the
matter of a lode for the null garage
door, which is swinging open; the
.oarage contains a wagon.

elevator pulley having been removed
from the mill, since the deed was

last year by fire.
Returning to matters in connection
with the tlonr milt, the :Mayor point-
ed notthat the mill was not in tit con-
dition to take prospective buyers in.
Councillor R, M\', Eherhart inquired
what is the use in keeping the old
cooper shop at the mill: barrels are
no lunger used Misr shipping dour.
Councillor Bolton pointed out that
there are a lot of pulleys and steel
wheels not in use, also truck, scales,
office furniture, etc„ that might be
realized on. This was objected be-
cause it was thought better to retain
everything to cell intact, if possible.
'Gleanings from discussion of con-
ditions at the mill showed it needed
sweeping down; there were not as
many broken window lights as ex-
pected; there was four feet of water
in the leg of the elevator; that the
Council as a. whole is in charge, with
the property committeelooking after
the cleaning up; that the mill was

CITIZENS MAY VISIT MILL
The work of cleaning up tate Rohr
mill was begun Tuesday afternoon by
•Mr. A, Powell, under the direction of
the property committee of the town
council. When this woric is completed
citizens will be invited to inspect the
Property, Mayor Sutherland an-
nounces, as the townspeople are now
shareholders, A trip through the mill
is well worth while, to see hots flour
is made in a modern mill, which is in-
deed a wonderful advance from, the
mills to which aur pioneer ancestors
carried wheat on their backs twenty
or thirty miles.
The milling process begins with
"tempering" the wheat, that is giving
it the correct moisture content; it
then passes through the first grind-
ers, a box -like machine in the lower
part of the mill; then by endless .chain
elevator to the top floor where the
sieves are'located; back down throu.gb
pipes toanother grinder and up again
to the sieves. This process continues
until the correct degree of fineness is
o'btain'ed.
(In the last Stages the flour must
pass through silk screens.
There is also a scales where a
half carload .of ,grain can be weigh-
ed at a time, these are brand new; and
have never been used. As this mill
was completely refitted only a few
years ago for making flour for export
it is easily one of the most up-to-date
in the country. • '
