have been talking about improved
mills at this place. Dir. Smith is actu :
ally at work constructing one, and
that he has already made consider b Q
progress in the undertaking. The new
building is to be three stories high and
up with all the modern improvements.
The foundations are we'll laid. the. first
story erected. and much Of the material
for the whole in readiness. He pro-
poses to supplement his fine wster

recognizes the fact that while our pres.
ent mills were sufficient in their day
that day has passed, and something
much superior is now T. quired to meet
the changed order of things. He de-
serves much credit for hi enterprise,
and we wish. him all succes7.
