SWENSON g. COMPANY
One of Villas County's Leading Rusi-
ness establishments

The editor of this paper was at
Woodruff Monday and while there was
shown over the premises of Swenson q
Co., by the head of the firm. Ole Sven
son, the erstwhile popular county treas
urer Of this county. This is the prin-
cipal business firm at Woodruff. In
fact it would not be far out of the way
to say that they are the whole thing
there. The sign "Swenson & Co., !"
hangs in front of the only general
store in the town. They are also the
proprietors of the Woodruff House,
the principal hostelryin town, and the
sample room in connection is one OF the
best in the village. The hotel has re-
Gently been enlarged, repaired and
painted. 1t is three stories high and
contains about thirty rooms for guests.
They set good table and the hotel IS
a popular resort for the travelling man
while in that part of the county.
The store building is 30x80 and is
filled to overfowing with a well selected
stock of general merchandise. Four
men are kept constantly busy in the
store waiting ON customers. Some idea
of the amount of goods which they
handle can be obtained from the fact
that during the last twelve months they
did sky thousand dollars worth OF
business, or an average of two hundred
dollars day for each working day OF
the time. Their buildings, including
store, hotel, barn, warehouse etc. COW
ers about half block and is lighted
throughout with electric lights about
one hundred and fifty thirty-two candle
powerlights being needed for the pur-
pose The company own their own
private water works which are used for
fire protection and also to furnish water
all over their establishment. 1t cost
them about one thousand dollars to put
in and equip these water works. They
have large tank built eighty feet
from the ground and a big windmill
pumps the water and forces it into this
tank aud the weight of water gives
pressure enough to throw II stream
from the ground over any building
which they have got.
Besides their interests in the village
they own farm about one half mile
from the town They have ffty-three
acres cleared and stumped and raise
nearly vegetables enough to supply the
store. This year they had over fifteen
hundred bushels of potatoes alone
which at the prices the are now sellings
sixty cents, will bring in bigger in
come than many farmers below realize
on FIRMS of twice the size.
In addition to his other duties Mr..
Swenson is postmaster and tends.to
handling the mail OF Uncle Sam all of
which makes him a very busy man but
he still finds time to visit with his
friends and give them Il royal time
when ever they drop in on him.
