Neal Rice was considerably bruised
yesterday by falling tree in Blooms

The committee on Manufactures Of
the Chamber of Commerce reported to
that body Monday evening that they
had obtained an option on the rental
of several buildings as sight for the
proposed creamery, and were waiting
an opportunity for consultation with
Messrs. Maynard & Cogswell, the pro-
jectors of that enterprise. before ac-
cepting any definite location. The
committee were empowered to act
on behalf of the Chamber. The joint
committee of that body and the Horti.
cultural Society having under con-
sideration the construction of an
evaporation reported utter impractical
bility of securing fund ($50,O0O) for
such an extensive project, and recon-
mended change in plans for a plant
costing but 5000. This recommends.
ton brought out considerable dis.
cussiop, which eliminated in the ap.
pointment of a committee to ascer.
tain and report the minimum cost oil
an evaporation plant. Messrs. Haight
Faulkner, Savage, Scobey and Mann
were appointed said committee. II
is thought that our community will
be amply able to handle the project
as it now stands, and that this con.
viction will lead to immediate and
united action.
