who beats. Oren Philbrick, driving
d. D. Hayward's team, drew with two
horses to the Lyndon Mill Co.'S new
mill in Lyndon a load of logs messur-
ing 1880 feet of spruce lumber, board
measure. Beat that and we will try

LAUNDERING business this season is
quite astonishing. The Lyndon Mill
Co. have this whole section, nearly,
engaged in their service. All the
way from the new mill in Lyndon to
East Haven there is a constant stream

mill company can tell a great story
next fall.
