Town to Build Wheelbarrow Factory Amid Brainstorm Waste
A western town proclaims November 1 as the start of a wheelbarrow factory while criticizing brainstormers who push nonproductive schemes. The piece laments costly chautauquas and revivals and urges industry for real prosperity and living wages.
West and East clash over western development and power potential
The piece argues that western states fuel oil lumber war metals and ships and possess vast hydro electric capacity. It cites Central Electric Co of California producing 7 500 408 705 kWh in 1917 versus Commonwealth Edison 1 488 080 000 kWh and notes western water power holds 70 percent of US potential with over a billion dollars invested and more to come. A lost and found note offers a $5 reward for keys and a classified pitch invites farm listings through Weaver and Trescott.
