W e have the north side, the east side, the south side and the west side, each with its special advantages. On the north side railroad tracking is easily obtainable, hence warehouses, wholesaling, manufacturing, in fact any enterprise that requires shipping facilities naturally drifts that way. On the east side .of town we have the ^unlimited gas supply so essential^ to our industrial enterprises and the' personal comfort of our citizens. To the south and southwestsidedftownwehave the highest?and uost desirable residential section. Here already have been constructed our costliest and most beautiful residences. It isthe jCkpitolTC w o f ,Baker. It is here that the elite are going and will continue to go to build their homes. In this part o f the citylthe soil is of a sandy loam, grow without extra cure or effort. It is destined to be that part o f the city with homes beautiful. In this section is where you want tn bnyyoarhome sights Immediately west of town and northwest of town is essentially the manufacturing locality. Railroad facilitiei; and abundance of water are the deciding points in this matter. Although either gas or water are supposed to be piped to points o f consumption and generally will be, yet.every manufacturing company prefers to have its own water supply in addition to city water. This can be obtained only o n the west and northwest side o f the city in abundance and of good quality. In manufacturing, an independent water supply is desirable, not only as a matter of economy, but as additional fire protection, also as a double assurance of an unfail ing supply on all occasions in case the public'plant should run short or for any reason should fail. ’ At present this point is-y^fim p o itant in Baker. N o manu facturer can afford to take chances-qn having his water shut off on account of freezing mains. W e believe that lotsr in the Savage Addition and on Lathom Heights, especially all the higher and more sightly will be selling around one thousand, dollars^apiece. The .lower lying lots immediately^w^L o f town^-will be. needed^from time to time for various industrial and manufacturing enterprises. A t present.they are very desirable for people o f ■Mkdternte^meimsiaiid — ■ u ‘ \ ‘ canhaye your own well o f pure water, with a sure sale on an advancing marketin' case the owner should wish to s d ^ v| Cfee t k n f be a city o f many thousand inhabitants. We have the natural resources to wanrimtit. ^ ■ V.'- R BROSl, BALER, MONTANA ; Vs >1 .• ln U <?■ iV - I -? - m m
