WALLS GOING UP AGAIN.
Work on the Oakland Wooden Mill is
Under Way.

Work on the Oakland Wooden Mill is
Under Way.
Work has been resumed on the new
Mid Continent Wooden mill at Oakland
and the building will be pushed rapidly
to completion.
The contractors were forced to shut
down several days ago because the stock
holders were slow in paying their as
sessments, necessary to meet the first
estimate which was due when the build
ing was completed to the first story.
This money has now been paid in and
the contractors have again put their men
to work. It will not be long until this
substantial manufacturing building will
be ready for the machinery.
The building is Of brick and presents
handsome appe arance.
