Uncorporated.)
Manufacturers and Founders.
WaIIa WalIa, Wash.

That Walla Walla is beyond question
the headquarters for threshing ma
chimes and other agricultural machin-
cry and implements to a greater ex-
tent than any other city in Washington
there is no question. 1t is also be-
coming a manufacturing city of ma
chinery and implements. AS great fac
tries have grown from small begin
nings'in the east and middle west, so
also are they growing here.
The subject Of this sketch is a case
in point. The business the company
succeeded lad grown from a small be-
ginning until a larger capital was
needed. An increase of capital and the
incorporation in 1905 was Immediately
followed by a corresponding increase
of business, and the one time machine
and repair shop may now be ranked
as a factory where machines and i'm
plements are both made and repaired.
The company manufactures Economy
Side Feeders, McEachern Weeders.
tanks, header boxes, derrick tables;
builds threshing machines to order and
does all kinds of machine and foundry
work
A speciality is made of repairing en-
gines, threshing machines and all kinds
of farm machinery.
The company is agent for Altman
Taylor threshing machinery, Advance
threshers, Advance engines, well drill
ing machinery, pumps, etc, and carries
full line of extras, together with val
voline, cylinder and machine oil, belt
ing, etc.
This factory is equipped throughout
with the hest modern machinery and
machine tools for both wood and iron
work. The laths, planners and drills are
driven by electric power, and the diff
ferent shops are, except as to magni-
tude, second to none in the state. Con-
tracts are taken for all kinds Of new
and repair work, and skilled engine and
machine men furnished when desired
by patrons to start and repair engines
and machines on the farm.
1t is interesting, also, to note that
the company will build a new foundry
the present year.
The force of skilled mechanics en-
ployed is at all times sufficient to meet
the demands of a large and increasing
patronage, extending well over the
country tributary to Walla Walla. 1t
is interesting to note in this connec-

The Statesman Publishing company,
Walla Walla, Washington, is now the
best equipped printing establishment
between Portland and Spokane.
The company makes a specially of
turning out the highest class of work
in all lines of printing. In addition TO
it's printing business the company now
conducts what might be called one or
the most modern ruling and book
west.
Besides it's large interests in the
printing and book binding field the
company also publishes two prominent
newspapers, the Daily Evening
Statesman and the Weekly Statesman.
These two newspapers have been pub
lished for a great many years, and
there are few homes throughout Walla
Walla city or county that are not
reached by either one or both papers.
By advertisers both papers are valued
very highly, as their circulation is the
| largest of any papers published in the
county.
The manager and active head of the
Statesman Publishing company is Mr.
| P. c. Holland, a practical newspaper
man and publisher, with a wide ac-
quaintance all over the Pacific north

THE OREGON LUMBER YARD,
J. w. McCrite,- Manager.
WalIa WaIIa, Wash.

The Oregon Lumber Yard of Walla
Walla is branch of the Oregon Lum
Der Company's business, the home of
flce OF the company being at Ogden
Utah. The stockholders are residents
of Oregon and Utah and the officers
are David Eccles, president; George
Romney,. vice-president, and c. w
Nibley, secretary and treasurer. The
company has large holdings of timber
lands and is at present operating mills
at Baker City, Ore; Viento, Ore, and
Chenowith, Washington.
The company manufactures fir and
pine lumber, railroad ties and timber
roofing, siding, ceiling, moulding, fin
ishing lumber, from Sumpter Valley
pine, both for wholesale and retail;
has many yards and does an extensive
trade in its own products.
The company's Walla Walla yard
was established eleven years ago, and
has been from the beginning one OF
the best stocked yards in the city. 1t
includes rough and dressed lumber
sash, doors, shingles, papers, mould
ings, and all kinds of building mate
rial.
Since it's beginning, J. w. McCrite
has been manager Of the Walla Walla
yard. That his ability meets the re
quirements of his position, is evidenc
ed by his continuing to hold it for SC
many years.

The factory building is a two-story
structure with a full basement for
storing stock material and keeping it
in a proper condition for handling
The two main floors afford room for
fifteen to twenty skilled cigar and to.
bacco makers, and more room will be
added as it becomes needed.
The weekly payroll of the workmen
is at present between two hundred
and fifty and three hundred dollars,
but it is expected within the next year
to double that amount.
The selection and purchase of stock
for a factory of this kind requires
both discrimination and judgment, and
experience. Everything is selected and
bought from samples of tobacco
brought directly to the factory by
travelling statesmen representing New
York, Chicago, st. Louis and San
Francisco houses, and only the best
quality of Domestic, Havana, and
Sumatra tobacco are accepted.
The companys higher grade OF
cigars made from pure Havana filters
and Sumatra wrappers are equal in
flavor and quality to the finest i'm
ported goods of commerce, and the
mixed cigars are superior in quality to
many Eastern made cigars, which sell
for higher prices.
The company will soon be able to
supply both smoking and chewing to-
baccO of it's own manufacture, in
quantity to meet the demands of it's
trade. Factory facilities have hereto
fore limited this part of the products
to an amount little more than suffi-
cient to meet the local demand. While
it is not anticipated that a travelling
salesman will be necessary in dispOs-
ing of the increased products of the
factory, Mr.. FEEDERS many old pat
rons and friends will be glad to know
that he will make occasional trips to
nearby towns in the interest of the
cOmpany's business.
1t is well-known experience of
American communities that, given a
sufficient payroll, the town is sure to
follow. 1t is also quite evident that
Mr. Fielder and his associates have
done their mart in building I'm a nav
roll for Walla Walla. and it is now up
to the public to make this enterprise
success by giving it a liberal sup
port.

l.. TALLMAN, MANUFACTURING
PHARMACIST
WalIa WaIIa, Wash.

Among the manufacturing enter
prises of Walla Walla, none are OF
greater importance to the general
public than the subject of this sketch.
At a time when so much is being
said and written of authorizations in
food and medicines, it is especially
gratifying to Walla Wallans to have
in one of their most esteemed fellow
citizens a practical and expert manu-
featuring pharmacist.
L. l.. Tallman is one of the best
and most generally known druggists
and manufacturing pharmacists IN
Eastern Washington. On his arrival
in Walla Walla ten years ago he pur-
chased an interest in the old City
Drug Store, at the corner of Second
and Main streets. He subsequently
became the sole owner of the business
and has since ranked as one OF the
leading business men of Walla Walla.
Besides conducting a business COM
mon to first-class druggists and pre-
scription pharmacists, Mr.. Tallman is
a manufacturer of number of pro-
prietary remedies, and pharmaceuti-
cal preparations, including a full line
of DR.. Shaw's famous preparations
for family use; such as Alternatives,
TONES, Liniments, Cough Syrups, ETC.,
etc. He also manufactures a line of
remedies and toilet preparations
known as Tallman's Preparations.
Of these remedies and toilet prepare
tons it may be said they are becoming
quite popular as DR.. Shaw's famous
remedies.
The truth, that purity of ingredi-
ents is necessary to perfection in COM
pounds, is assured in all cases. This
rule applies with emphasis to the pre-
scription department.
Mr.. Tallman is a member of the
Washington State Board of Pharma
cists. He employs only skilled phar-
macists in his prescription depart
ment.
Besides being a leading druggist
and manufacturing pharmacist, Mr..
Tallman, like so many business men
of Walla Walla, has become promi-
nently identified with wheat growing.
His farms together have crop of a
thousand acres the present season,
indicative of it's average, the yield will
be a bOuntiful one.

J. M. Fielder CIGAR G. TOBACCO
MANUFACTURING COMPANY
WaIIa WaIIa, Wash.

Successful manufacturing in Walla
Walla must be confined to articles
designed for local consumption, and
especially those necessities or luxuries
of everyday life that can be made in
successful competition with Eastern
goods. There are many reasons COM
bining to make it possible to do this,
in the case of cigars. And accordingly
Walla Walla makers have for many
years supplied a considerable part of
the cigars smoked in this city and
throughout the country adjacent to it.
A combination of capital recently
brought about through the influence
of J. NJ. Fielder, the well-known cigar
manufacturer, assisted by personal
friends and patrons. will from this
time on materially increase Walla
Walla's output of cigars, and in a
much greater measure supply the local
demand, and as we'll the other towns
of the valley.
The J. M. Fielder Cigar and Tobacco
Manufacturing Company was tncorpor,
ated with a capital of twenty thousand
dollars to succeed the business of The
Blue Mountain Cigar Factory. The
concern is of recent formation and is
under the management of a board OF
trustees composed of William Retzer
Lucian Genevay and John M. Fielder
with the latter as manager of the fac.
tory.
The plan upon which the business is
conducted is almost, if not quite
unique. The stockholders are all
dealers in the factory's products, and
as such, share in the factory profits
and the wholesalers profits on the
goods manufactured, besides making a
retail profit on the goods they individ
ually sell. The effect of this combina
ton OF interests will be to make trav.
cling statesmen and extensive advertis
ing less necessary, and thereby enable
the company to extend exceptional
prices to the trade
The building and equipment of The
Blue Mountain Factory, owned by Mr.
Fielder and situated on his home place
just outside of the city, will be used
by the new company but there is
soon to be a supply station establish
ed in Walla Walla from which city
patrons can be supplied, and as well
telephone and mail orders from out
side towns.
The popular approval of and demand
for both the Domestic and Havana
brands of cigars manufactured by J
M. Fielder during the past sever
years has always been equal to the
output of his factory. And it is 6
compliment to him. no less than al
evidence of good business judgment
en- their part, that his patrons have
become mutually interested in build
ing up cigar and tobacco factory O.
which Walla Wallans may Justly be
proud.
