Smyrna times., 1905-03-08
SMYRNA HAS CHANCE FOR
ANOTHER HOME INDUSTRY
If THE CITIZENS WILL RAISE THE SMALL
sum OF $500 AS AN INDICTMENT.
Industry Is a Shirt Factory Which VIII EN-.
pIOy from rs to 50 Operators and Pay
Out Weekly from Sl25 TO $3.50.

A shirt factory employing contin-
uously from % to so operators and
with pay roll from $3.50 to 5000 a week,
will locate in Smyrna if the citizens
will raise $500. The proposition is
now up to the citizens. Will they do
it? We are all concerned for the well
fare of our town, and the employment
of home labor is an essential necessary
for our growth and welfare. Every
industry we can locate is a help and
in getting new industries we will have
to do as other towns do in order to &C
complish our object. The employment
of all our home labor means not only
the building up of business, not only q
demand for homes, but also means an
inducement to others to move where
steady employment can be secured.
We are often too slow to take advan :
tage of the opportunities offered and
when 1t is too late we regret not hav-
ing done differently. We can have a
shirt factory that will run the year
continuously employing 25 to so hands
paying out weekly $3.50 tc 5000. This
plant can be in operation by April Is.
In order to secure the industry we will
need to raise $500. This money is not
to be paid out until the plant has been
started and in operation ten days
The money is required to pay the ex-
pense of locating, loss of time and ma
terial, in breaking in new hands, and
other expenses contingent to all plants
starting up anew.
This business will be a permanent
one and should increase in proportion
as it grows older. Certain persons
have already promised certain sums
for this purpose, but more is necessary
and at once. Do not have to be ruI
after to be asked, but hand in your
name to Harry B. Grieves, or E. NJ
Fowler, Secretary, or A. E. Jardine
President of the Board of Trade oi
Smyrna. 1t is very much to be hoped
that this call to our public spirited cit
izens will not be allowed to fall by the
wayside. The amount is not large
the extent of good you can do to 9TH
ers is great, and in doing good to 9th
ers you are doing good to yourself
The satisfaction of having done youl
duty will be a solace and the seeing O.
many deserving people going to a new
employment should be a pleasure.
Smyrna times., 1905-03-08
BASKET MILL TO START UP SOON
Superintendent S. A. Former Takes hold and
May Have Mill Ready 10 Two Weeks.

Samuel A. Fortner, superintendent
of the Smyrna Basket Mill, has moved
from Kenton to Smyrna and assumed
charge of the factory which is being
gotten in readiness to start up as soon
as the weather permits. 1t was the in
tention of the Smyrna and Kent
County Mfg. Co. to start the rejuven-
ated plant by the first of the month,
but the severe winter weather has
much delayed the repair work and it is
hardly probably that the plant will be-
gin operation before the middle of the
month. There is still some machinery
to be put in repair and room to be
made for some new machinery. The
steam vats have yet to be made beside
several other things of more or less
Importance before the company will be
fully prepared to enter upon a seasons
work. The first installment of lum-
ber came several weeks ago and there
is now enough material in hand to
keep the plant going for little while.
When the mill starts timber will be
coming in lively for the management
have every assurance that there is
plenty of lumber material in this vicin-
ity to keep the industry going for
many years. There will be thirty CT
forty men taken on at first and during
the busy season the number will be
materially increased. With fattering
prospects for big fruit year, this old
industry which was operated SO sue
cessfully in bygone days may be q
boon to Smyrna and there are many
citizens who are wishing the company
continued success in the enterprise
they are about to put in operation.

a great quantity of corn in this vicin-
ity that has not been shipped and as
soon as the weather permits and the
roads become fit for hauling, the grain
will move off lively. The long contin-
ued winter which has held navigation
ice bound since week before Christ

ness at Smyrna Landing. The Brady
made successful trip last week and
