PLENTYWOOD BUYS AIRPORT GROUNDS Plentywood has purchased 90 acres of land south of the track and east of and adjoining the city, a part of the old Goodman farm, for an airport. The land was in the hands of Fred Ibsen, receiver of the State Bank of Plentywood, and the consideration was $1,500. Work will be commenced as soon as practicable to put the port in shape with a beacon light at each end. Plentywood now has an airport area adequate for the needs of a town ten times its size for years to come. The deal has been in the air for some time, and the offer of the land was finally accepted at the Monday evening meeting of the city council.
