It's Business Men-New Buildings &c
Mishicott, though well known to our
readers as one Of the most thriving vii
lagos in our county, Will bear a descrip-
ton giving an insight into its manufac,
turing interests, the resent provements
made in and near it, and such items OF
local interest as present themselves.
Entering the village from the south,
the first place of interest one meets after
crossing the bridge is
TIE TANNERY.
owned by Messrs. Tisch 4 Munger, stu
ated on the north bank of the Mishicott
river. When first established, some
years since, it was small, core horse
arrangement, but has since grown to be
one of the most complete in the County.
Mr.. Henry Tisch, one Of the proprietors
we haye long known rs an enterprsng,
hard working man, and his succe IS in this
and his other branches Of business is owing
to his large -heartedness and kindness to
those with whom he had occasion to
deal.
The next place of interest, following
Main street, is
THE BADGER HOUSE
and saloon kept by Mr.. August Tcrens.
The Badger House is open at all times
to receive guests, and those having occa-
sion to remain with August generally so
away satisfied. He is jolly, fat dutch
man., and has hosts Of friends who
want to sec him prosper.
Nearly adjoining this Building, is the
Wholesale and Retail
HARDWARE STORE
Of Mr.. John Terens. From a small bo-
ginning he has got to be one Of the
solid men of Mishicott, and has store
and does a business that many Of our city
merchants might envy. We have known
John many years, and have always found
him to be an honest man to deal with,
consequently. he is prospering.
On the opposite side of the river is the
fine large
FIGURING MILL
the property of Mr.. A. Wehauser.
These mills are highly spoken of as turn
ing out some of the best -four ever
manufactured, and judging from the i'm
mense amount of grain they handle, the
owner must be man who is always will
ing to do the fair thing by his customers.
On the north bank of the river. nearly
opposite the grist mill, is the old
SAW MILL
of Smith & Hanson. Built over twenty
years ago. it is known all over the coun-
try as the one built by ''Uncle Dan
Smith, father Of Ira p Smith, one Of its
present proprictors. 1t is furnished with
three saws,--a large and small circular
and one upright saw. The mill is kept
running almost constantly, and turns out
an immense pile Of lumber daily, most
Of which is what is known as bill lum-
ber." The dam, which keeps a supply
Of water fof both this and the grist mill
is one of the very first built in Manito-
VOC county and still preserves its solidity.
THE STORE
of Smith & Hanson is the next public
building one finds on leaving the mill.
For a country store this is large build
ing, and is constantly kept full Of a
choice variety Of dry goods, groceries,
crockery, furniture, and the thousand
and-one articles in demand. The rro-
prietors report trade as being good. This
store is one Of the first erected in the
village, and has large patronage both
among the farmers and towns people.
Across the street from the store are
two
BLACKSMITH SHOPS,
one the property Of Charley Wilson and
the other Of Fred Kreger O. the latter
gentleman we don't know much, but
Charley Wilson is one Of the best work
men in the State, and a good natured,
straightforward man withal. Both es-
adjustments seem to have a good run of
trade, and the owners are doing well.
Fred Bremen, whom every one for
miles around knows and likes, is the pro
prietoT Of the large
WAGON SHOP
at Misbicott. He is a good workman,
and having five men constantly employed

of the country had found out that Fred.
was tie man to patronize for anything in
his line. Any one visiting the village,
seeing a man who was constantly running
over with good hurlor, might feel satiS-
fed that he had seen Fred.
T. Damon, well-known as the host OF
TIE MIsHICoTT HOUSE,
is too familiar with our readers to need
apv recommend as the most perfect land
lord in America. Anyone who has ever
stopped with him cannot failin pronoun-
cling him a perfect gentleman, Courteous
and obliging to his guests, and withal
