 MT. Core stated that the saw mills | now located at Benton, Arkansas. owned by these capitalists would be Iremoyed from that place 10 Plum Bayou and that the working capaci- ty would easily exceed 100 men. which will make business in and around Bolivar "loom up, nas he ex- presses if.
 The land was bought from Messrs. Yowell & Williams, of Little Rock, representatives of the Union Central Life Insurance Go. The capitalists have purchased land that gives them red onk. white oak, ash, hickory, cottonwood, elm and red gum. They will ship the raw material East where the greater portion of it will be exported, the balance coming back to us i'll furniture.
 It seems that all the progressive and up to date places are around us; we should reach out and find some of these enterprises. The country however, where the mill will be erected is thicklv covered with tim Der, and as suggested by MT Core 1t would not surprise him to see the mill owners buy up all the timber. land in that vicinity.
