Creamery.

The Morris creamery is completed
and routes are being established and
everything made ready for work.
The main building is SO feet square
and two stories high, back of which is
an ice house containing about 100 tons
of ice. Another small addition has
been made to the building which will
be used as store room for coal. In
the southeast corner of the building
is the office and back of this the en-
CINE room. The watts for receiving
cream as it is brought in from various
routes is in the northwest corner.
This room also contains the two huge
churns. Back of this are two rooms,
one for working the lutter and the
other, Il store room for butter. This
store room is connected with the ice
house and is always cool. The en-
CINE, pump, watts, churns, butter
| workers and other machinery is of
the latest and most improved kind
and is all that is needed for the
manufacture of first class butter.
The upper story OF the main building
| is used rs Il store room for cans, tanks,
| pals, tubs etc. The creamery is we'll
equipped and butter from it will soon
| be in the market Mr.. Lawrence is
now busy establishing routes. He tells
| h.kf ~ I'm
cows this season. The creamery
which for some time past has been
anticipated is now an established
fact and the advantages to be derived
from such an institution are about to
be realized.
| People visiting Morris for the first
| time invariably express surprise at
finding such large and we'll stocked
stores as are to be found here. The
Tribune has recently called attention
to some of the prominent ones, but
yet there are others deserving
special mention and one in
particular. This one is the immense
establishment of Wolff 4 Wells. No
one can enter this double store with
out seeing at a glance the immense
amount ard great variety of goods
kept. In one side OF the north half OF
store can be seen fancy groceries and
confectionery and upon the other
canned goods, sugars, stable groceries,
tobacco and crockery and in the south
half, the dry goods department,
hosiery ribbon and glove departments,
boot and shoe department, and the
departments for gents furnishing
goods, hats and caps and another de-
partment for miscellaneous which OF
itself would make a we'll stocked
variety store. In the center of the
store, too, may be seen a stock OF
1.-THE New Home' sewing machines,
one of the best kinds manufactured
and carpet department which is well
worth attention. Their stock of ready
made clothing is also remarkably
complete and constitutes another i'm
portant department of this mammoth
double store. Back of the grocery
and crockery departments of the store
is a refrigerator for butter and store
room for groceries. Beside the main
building there is upon the back end Of
the lots owned by the firm q ware
house which is often crowded to its
utmost capacity by the great amounts
of farm produce purchased. Wolff &
W els are also agents for the Osborne
farm machinery and give that con
siderable attention. For nice work
and lightness of draft the Osborne
binder is quite a favorite among
farmers. We doubt ifthere is any
where in this part of the state a store
containing greater stock or greater
: variety of goods than this one or {
: firm whose yearly aggregate O
business is greater than that O
Wolff & Wells.
