MEANS LONG LIFE
Box Factory Will Now be Able to
Run For Long Term Of Years.

Many new improvements have
made at the Kenfeld & Lamor-
eau1 box factory during the past
week or so and much new ma
chinery has been installed for
the purpose Of handling the bolts
which the firm are buying from
the farmers in this vicinity.
The business of the firm has
been increasing rapidly of late
and they have found some diff
Guilty in getting enough stock
from the mills around the bay
and it was thought that the plant
would have to leave as soon as
they had ceased operations but
this new source Of getting stock
will mean long life for the fac
tory which is one of the best in
situations of the city. It will al
so give the settlers a good sum
for their bolts and will be the
means of helping to clear the
lands more rapidly. The mem.
bers of the firm are hustlers and
are for Washburn fir st, last and
all the time.

To Have Another Factory,

A deal has practically been
closed for another small indus
try for Washburn. Ground has
already been provided and it is
expected thata factory building
will be built at cnce. The COM

charge. We do not feel the liber-
ty to give all details of the affair,
but expect that everything will
be settled in a few days. We
are not going to give the 'ssnap'
away ano allow it to be SUBMIT
ed to competition by other cities.
A statement of the proposition
may be expected in next week s
issue.

May Mean Line to Port Wing

It is reported that land company
has secured an option on the Peer
less Logging road" rightly named
the Minneapolis, ST. Paul u Ash
land railroad, with the avowed pur-
pose of purchasing it and extending.
the line to Port Wing. The com :
pany, it is said, owns a great deal
of land in northwestern part OF the
town of Wachburn and IN the town
of Port Wing, which it wants open
ed to settlement. At the annual
meeting of the town of Port Wing
il was decided to assist any road
which might want to build to the
town with a bonus Of from twenty
to thirty thousand dollars. 1t is
probable that the company interest
ed is the Wisconsin Lumber and
Cattle Company, whose general
Offices are at Esterville, Iowa. This
com pany owns about 0,000 acres Of
land in the town of Port Wing. A
mortgage was recently placed on
file covering this land, also about
200 head OF cattle, their saw mill
and other property belonging to the
company. The amount OF the mort
gage is $4,000.
