water company. The following directors
were unanimously elected: w. S. Har

venburg, s. G. Cartwright, G. W. Dud
row and J. D. Sena. The directors sub
sequently organized by electing DR.
Harroun president, Mrs. R%ivenburg vic
president, s. G.. Cartwright treasure
and j. D. Sena secretary. The compan.
will probably enlarge it's plant consid
erably in time for this seasons opera
tions, and add an extensive cider mill
and possibly a cannery. While thu
evaporation was not constructed unit
very late in the season last year., yet thu
excellent product made and the demand
for the evaporated fruit showed conclu'
sively that the business will be a grea'
success when fully established. There
is no reason why this should not become
one Of the largest and most profitable
business enterprises of it's kind in the
country.
