as furnishing ample data for n full

crlblng In detail this enterprise. hence

comes necessary.
Machinery to the cost OF $4,000 has
been added during the past two years
to Increase the capacity. the demands
having accumulated beyond what could
be supplied within the period required.
A large finishing room 40xl25 feet
and two large wool warehouses have
recently been built. new engines 10 re-
place the old 50-horse power have been
placed In. increasing the power capac-
lily OF the mill to l25-horsc power and to
furnish steam. four new boilers have
been located, thus II may be seen at
glance the immensely OF the enterprise.
Cutler Bros, OF &c Main street. Salt
Lake city, are the sole agents OF the
mills. They report that their firm could
have sold hundreds OF additional pairs
OF the Provo Mills celebrated white
and coiored blankets while other Provo
Mills goods have this season met with
a most unprc, sdented sale.
Messrs Cutler Bros are running n
