J. j. Ross, manager of the Portland
Iron Works, was in Hood River Tues
day, making estimates for doubling
the capacity of the Hood River mill.
Manager Gessling says that the capac-
ity of the mill can be doubled at no
great expense, and is considering the
advisability Of doing so. He will also
build an elevator to hold the wheat.
1t is now kept outside with simply q
canvas cover, and is not satisfac-
tory way Of handling it. BY the pres.
ent method, only limited amount Of
wheat can Ee bought at one time, and
1t requires handling both in unload
,, , ing and to put 1t back in the mill fol-
grinding. With an elevator, it car
be unloaded direct from the car, anC
will save expense all around.
