City and Anderson.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
HARTFORD CITY, Ind, Sept. A. D.
Schaeffer, manager of the Hartford City
Paper Company, has gone to Manitoulin
island. in Georgian bay, Canada, to In
spect the timberland owned jointly by his
company and the Diamond Paper Com
pany, of Anderson. He also will examine
a water power on the land owned by these
companies to see if it is strong enough
TO drive the immense machinery necessary
10 operate a pulp mill, which is contem-
plated ON the island. If experts report
favorably a mill will be built to grind the
spruce logs into pulp there instead of
shipping them here and to Anderson. The
dry pulp would be shipped to the plants
instead, and a great saving of freight
charges thus made. The pulp departments
of both the Anderson and Hartford CITY
mills could be dispensed with and shipped
TO the island. where there is timber enough
TO supply the mills for years To come.
All the spruce wood in this and adjoining
States has been cut.
