MEssRs. BELL Bros,
Randolph, VT.
Gentlemen For a long time we have
realized our inability to properly care for
our rapidly increasing business, and have
been forced to build an addition, which
we will occupy IN November.
The addition is 107 feet in length, 81 feet
wide, six stories end a basement OF brick,
mill construction. Our original factory is
3l6 feet long so feet wide, six stories and a
basement high, containing 1l5,024 square
feet. With the new building, this will
give us factory 423 feet long with floor
area OF 1853 1872 feet, connected by bridge
to annex three stories, 140 feet in length
and "a feet In width, making q total floor
space OF 164 900 square feet.
We have installed a 500 horse power
engine and a new 5000 incandescent
electric light plant.
We are employing over 1000 people,
working nine hours per day, with an
average weekly pay roll Of $4,000.
Our former capacity was 5000 pairs
been forced to 1000 pairs. With our new
addition giving ample space, we can
easily make 1000 pairs per day. In build
ing the addition 1t is not our intention to
make more shoes but to avoid crowding,
and to improve our system, which will
enable US to give our customers prompter
and better service, and also what is most
essentially better goods.
Our queen Quality" stock and mail
order department will occupy the 2nd
and 3rd floors OF the new addition, giving
ample space TO handle, In a prompt and
efficient manner, all business pertaining
TO that department. On other floors will
be carried the surplus OF "Queen Quality"
stock.
We fully appreciate the fact that In the
past we have not been able to take care OF
our rapidly increasing business in a.
manner satisfactory to our trade or our
selves, and the improvement we will make

tainly feel will be appreciated by our
