At the town meeting last week it was
| voted to exempt the property owned by
| the Barton Landing Spool and Novelty Co.
from taxation for five years. This property
| has been purchased by the firm Of Parker
& Young of Lisbon, n. H., who bought
the Chandler mill here. The company will
put in new machinery and will manufact-
ure piano frames, backs and stools. They
expect to employ from fifteen to twenty
hands when they get well started and the
| business will require an outlay of several
| thousand dollars in putting in new ma
ch1nery and otherwise preparing for work.
The company is doing a good business
at present in the mill, giving employment
to large force of help and the amount to
be expended in the new department COM
bined with the increased force of help will
be quite boom to our village.
