Brandon is Il town of great natural re-
sources, is capable of vast development, and
sometime will doubtless grow to be n large
place. 1t received its first impetus ftom
the iron deposits in the vicinity of Forest
dale, in the eastern part of the town, which
were formerly worked quite extensively,
hut which have now been lying idle for
years. Then its marble and manufacturing
interests, chief Ofw which are the scale works,
together with the farm industry, have sus-
tanned the place and given it its present
growth. 1t has had n slow, healthy growth
and its industries have kept pace with its
Improvements. But few failures have oc-
Cured, and real estate docs not beg for n
market; every thing seems to be prosper
ing, and business of all kinds is made to
pay. Extreme poverty is almost unknown,
and wealth is abundant, as well as brains
Such being its business condition, is not
Brandon prepared for new industry, or
rather to revive an old one? Is it not time
that the work which gave our town a start
should be revived? 1t would not require q
very large capital to purchase the property
of its present owners, and to commence
work, and it would be sure to pay the ones
who would do it. 1t remains to be seen
who will improve the opportunity
We understand this ore is of the best

the ore beds, giving better facilities in re-
gard to shipping. and assisting the whole
town in this respect
We should like to see these mines re-
opened as we take Il deep interest in all
that pertains to the enterprise of Brandon
and we trust our hopes may sometime be
realized. Such project could be made Il
