company is doing a very large bust

ner month since the operation of the
mill was commenced, says the Detroit
Free Press. The average daily cut
was in excess of 100, 900 feet per an
num-. The output of the mills is sold
for several months in advance, so
that the continued increase may be
expected.
The company has recently complet-
ed the largest sash and door factory
on n floor in the world, and three
fourths of the output of the mills is
manufactured at Albuquerque, n. NJ,
into sashes, doors and box shocks. The
manufactured product is largely used
in the rapidly growing west, where
the demand is in excess of the capa-
city of the mill and factories. She
tract of timber owned by this com
pany is the only large one left in the
United States resembling Michigan
white pine, making the manufactured
product very much in demand. The
company is fully financed, being out
of debt, thus leaving all earnings for
dividend purposes. From those closely
connected with the company it is
learned a dividend payable January
will be paid, the only question is as to
size; nothing less than 2 per cen on

Werner Y. Reed. who has paid
many visits to France and for sew
eral years has spent portions of each
year there. made the statement to
a representative of this paper yes
terday that he believed the industry
OF making candied fruit, as it was
performed in France would be
large money earning project for this
city, if the secret could be secured
from that country. The process to
which he referred was not the same
as that used to make the candiei
fruit used in this country. 1t is
more of a preservative. The process
as used affects the whole fruit, and
is not so much on the order of a
crystal as the candied fruit common
here. The fruit when treated by
this process keeps an indefinite per-
iod and is very delightful as a relish
or to be eaten as a dainty for the
table. Mr.. Reed believes that work
men familiar with the manufacture
or the application OF this process
could he induced to come to this
country for the establishment of the
industry In France, the section of
the country where the eandied fruit
is made enjoys a great reputation
alone from the perfection with which
the fruit is treated.

talking to a group OF fashionabIy

of whom he could doubtless have
bought and had a million or so of
surplus. and he told them that things
were done differently now than when
he was boy. He said that his
early days in the butchering busi-
ness were the happiest of his life
and that now boys wanted to be
inanciers on other peoples money,
before they were capable of earn
ing a iny-dollar salary per month.
And from the looks IN the faces of
some about him. it was most evident
that a few had been hard hit in the
rough estimate of the multi-million-
