| The spring of 1889 will witness more i'm
provements in Sykesville than ever before in
! its history: we have here that spirit of compe-
tition which begets enterprise. and we have
the capital to back it, Wade H. ID. WarGeid
one of the youngest and most energetic of our
| business men, has commenced work on his
extensive improvements which he will have
ready for occupancy by the first of April,
when he will embark in business which will
add greatly to the trade of Sykesville, and
| help place it where it soon will be the leading
town in Carroll.
There has been 10 mechanics and 10 labor
ers employed this week on the buildings and
grading 4 commercial traveller remarked on
| Tuesday that it certainly was the busiest little
town he'd seen for many a day.
One building of Warfeld' will be 80 by "a
feet, two stories, with glass front and double
cornice, furnished throughout with hard wood.
On the first floor will be an elegantly fitted
office in front, with sales room for hardware,
oils, paints and agricultural implements. The
second floor will contain machinery for man
ufacturing windows, doors, moulding, &c.
The large warehouse, which will be IN the
rear, will be 20 by 60 feet and three stories
high. 1t will be I substantial structure; the
first story being of stone and will be used for
the storage of lime, the second aud third Sto
ries will be for grain and feed, with room tor
salt and fertilizers. This building will have
all the modern Improvements, with switch
facilities for unloading or loading two cars at

Mr.. Warfeld superintends the work IN person,
and he can be seen every day with his little
side whiskers on. and his pants in his boots d
recting the lahors of the men. His pluck and
business ideas has aroused some of our sleep
ing villagers. and every one now appears TO
wants to do something Mr., Jas. ;. Hyatt is
doing the carpenter work, and Fred Dorsey
the masonry. The only mistake Wartied
made was in not consulting agent Norwood
about the location of his warehouse. and we
are afraid it will greatly obstruct Norwood's
view between the station and his house.
