The Grand Rapids Herald; 6{ fgtel 3!
day contained the. following 31tsrviewj
| with Chas E. Rigley, who "a }n that
city attending the furnitur9 shles!
Charles E, Rigley, of Owosso, treas
urer of the Estey Manufacturing co1lls
pany, is strongly opposed to the early
opening. I'VE have done more busist
ness today, July l., he says, than dur.
ing all the days that have gone -be-s
fore" Dir. Rigley says that. the big
sugar plant will prove Of great benefit
to Owosso. The owners are also inter-.
ested in Bay City plant, where the
beet pulp will be used in the nianufac-
ture of alcohol. 1t is understood that
they haye a government contract, for
a large amount Of alcohol and that
this utilization of the by-product has
had more weight with the company in
establishing the plant than had the
making of sugar.
The Lansing Republican states that
number of changes are being made n
the force of employees at the Lansing
branch of the Owosso Sugar Co. 1t
states that A. M. Gelston of Bay Cityis
the new manager of the Lansing sugar
! factory, taking the position today as
the successor of l.. s. Boutell, whose
resignation was announced yesterday.
Mr.. Gelston has been connected with
| the Michigan Sugar Co. since it was.
| started up, and that is the Oldest sugar
factoryin the state. He will soon move
his family to the city. 49,
improvements are going on at the
| factory which will give it largely in
creased capacity. An additional vacuum
pan is one of the new things being in
stalled. At many points in the process
of sugar making, additions and enlarge
ments are being made that will consid-
erably increase its capacity. The inn
provements will be completed before the
beginning of the next campaign, which
will presumably be about Oct. /.
