Workmen are busily employed
putting IN a slX-inch main in the
city to run to the oil mill and CON-
press, and it is expected to be COM
pIeted within the next week or two.
This main was made necessary from
the fact that the mill and compress
had to have fire protection as well as
other parts of the city and water for
other purposes. These industries
are located a half mile or so from the
central portion of the city and north
west on the line of the Gulf and Ship
Island railroad and cover several
acres of land.
